Title: 30 for 30 I hate Christian Laettner.
Post by: Wiggs on March 16, 2015, 02:13:29 AM
Definitely a Getbigger.

Picked on by his big brother, became a hardass and a 6'11 White Warrior legend. Asshole, troll, shit talker and finally prick. But he was a winner. Not bad for a guy with mutated melanin and recessive genes. A great hero for you to aspire to be Falcom.

That sob killed my UNLV team in 91.  I remember everyone being sad and  I remember that stupid haircut and that that smug grimace. But hey it's in all good and fun. That's sports. lol

6'11, movie star looks, white and a champion. Hitler's Aryan ideal. Could probably handle a concubine of 500 of the finest European whores.

Great segment by ESPN. Laettner was the truth. Fearless, cocky, had ice waters in his veins. Four straight final fours and two championships says it all.

Had a decent pro career as well. Made one all star team and played 13 seasons, mostly as a starter. Not too shabby.

As a UNC/CH grad, I was born and bred to hate absolutely everything Duke. So Laettner can FOAD in a fire as far as I am concerned.

Must have stung like a bitch watching Laettner and the Dukies be the top dogs in the ACC on a constant basis during his four years.

No, he doesn't. Watch the segment and you will see.


And another note for anyone who has watched.......Jalen Rose is a straight up dick. A real hater. Yeah, maybe Laettner should've been ejected after the kick to the stomach in the 1992 NCAA semi-final. But even in college, just like the NBA, has the 'star system in place' for certain players. It is what it is. Only reason Jalen Rose believes Laettner should've been ejected AND suspended for the next game...is because it meant that the Fab Five of Michigan would've played Duke without Laettner in the Championship.

Hypocrite...because Rose wasn't beyond that type of behavior himself.

Fuck Rose. I fucking hate him.

he never did much as a pro, had his real fame while at duke then pretty much nothing. Made a shitload of money as a scrub in the nba tho, and for a looong time. A journeyman.

Like I already said...13 years and one all-star year. I lot of players would take that. He was a starter for 7 of his 13 years in the league. And even during the last few seasons, he was still logging over 20 minutes a game. Hardly a scrub. High basketball IQ and great hands makes up for a lot of athletic deficiencies. Just never won anything on the pro-level and played on a lot of shitty teams.

Jalen doesnt hate him, he stated in the same program Christian should be considered one of the best ever in college basketball.

. The e-60 shows and 30 for 30 always make me choke up like a baby. they are really good at pulling emotion from a story. I tear up worse with these sports ones than i do when a vietnam vet breaks down talking about his K-9 dog who got killed in the war or a ww2 guy who is choking up talking about his dead friends. That shit always kills me, but the special interest sports ones get me too when the story is really powerful

Watched it earlier today, was great.

The notion that Laettner "wasn't any good" in the NBA is largely a myth perpetuated by him playing on mostly terrible teams (the Hawks teams he played on were alright but still not real close to championship contention).  He was a solid pro.

A lot of his success in college came from his range.  The NBA three was out of his range but he was a very solid NBA PF.

I think he and Brian Davis were lovers. After that shot Brain ran all around his team mates to get to him and give him a hug.. :-*

Grant Hill was sopposed to be the one Dukie who could turn a franchise's fortune's around. He could fly, defend, score, his body just couldn't hold together. I remember some amazing highlight reel moves from his rookie season with Detroit. The phenom he never became, bummer

I met Grant Hill and he was kind of a dickhole.  Not a real asshole, just a subtle one.

He could have been an all-time great NBA player but injuries robbed him of his prime and much of his athleticism.

He had a great run with the Pistons, couple first team all NBA years; until he played injured in the playoffs and broke his ankle. It seemed he always came back a little to soon.

I hope Durant isn't going to experience the same fate.
