I said the same thing, I think he just wanted to make it on his own. Had an opportunity to team up with prime DRose and didn’t. Just the kind of man he is which I respect but man what if…
@@jamesglover4731 I agree.. and don't get me wrong, I'm glad he went to the Cuse and won it there! But yeah that team in college would've rivaled old school UNLV.. hahaha
Thanks for the clip. I imagine finding a friend to relate to in Melo or Lebron's youth would be difficult. Lebron was on a different level, but each had to deal with fame, expectations, recruiting, agents that few people have firsthand experience with, even other top basketball prospects. FYI, y'all put a pic of Stephens Hall at Towson University on the screen. Melo is talking about Towson Catholic High. That's where he went before he transferred to Oak Hill
I was just watching the clip when they was playing the lakers it looked like his first year there wit the corn rolls & Kobe came back with like 2 mins left just to win the game and dip 😂
Lenny Cooke there's a blast from the past. I remember he was on a highlight video i had on VHS back in the day, which also had other young guys on it like Tyson Chandler, Zach Randolph, Eddy Curry, Sebastian Telfair, Marcus Banks, Joe Forte, Amare Stoudemire, i can't remember the rest off the top of my head but yeah wow, Lenny Cooke was on it, a lot of hype around him when he was in high school
It was cool to see Melo play with Bron a bit at the end, even if he wasn't playin a lot of minutes and didn't have a big impact. I bet just as friends it was fun times
Man it could've been bron, melo and a young d.rose on the bulls instead of the heatles🤦♂. Even as a heat fan, I'd rather have that imstead. D.wade, bosh, and kd(maybe VC) or another perimeter star would've been a better fit.
Bruh ain’t no way in hell Melo is overlooked to make a roster. If Thanis Antekoumpo can be on a roster Melo definitely can contribute WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY MORE than what PJ Tucker and Thanis could produce 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
But the difference is pj and thanis don’t play melo wouldn’t accept their roles nor should he he just started to accept coming off the bench right before he retired
It’s dumb to assume things that aren’t actually facts, have never heard the reason for his retirement. Good idea if you could explain why he retired early than to make immature statement about my question.
@2:58 To all the Younh Bucks out there who think y'all invented the Nappy Fro. Mello probably had taken his corn rows up just a little while before taking this pic, 😢nostalgia for my era. Yall young bols copy catin'
@@michaelallen8112oh really? Did lebron do the same to you lad? He must’ve since you know him so well. Tell me about how fake lebron was towards you and people you know.
I mean he balled out and won the Natty at the Cuse.... but imagine Melo, Bosh and Jack in college together?? Damn.!
He won a one n done college career. Doesn’t get better.

Salute to Melo, i wish he was still in the league. Thanks for the memories Melo

I love him Bron and Chris Paul relationship brotherhood ❤🙏🏽🙌🏽
Any other year two guys that good at the top of the draft playing the same position would have been career long rivals.

Early 2000’s high school scene was crazy. Best high school basketball era in my opinion.
Best of Kingston 11❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's too bad LeBron couldn't get Melo into the weight room.
Keep your head up cousin

Man should have joined the Heat.
What happened to Leny though?
Lenny was at the club 😂
omg lol. how much time you got?
Fuck Steph j hates when ever they talk bout bron 🤣🤣🤣
How did you retire earlier than him
Why does that matter? I can tell you ask some of the dumbest questions lol

You see that picture of him and lebron. They knew what they was doing 😂😂😂😂🥸
Damn Lenny Cooke lol I NEVER bought the hype that he was better than Bron. He was nice on that level but nah.
I thought LeBron’s best friend was D-Wade
dwade is like an older brother and a mentor to Lebron..
LeBron, Chris Paul, D-Wade, and Melo are all in that Banana Boat best friends circle.......
You can have more than one best friend.
Aren’t Melo and LeBron born in the same year
Nope melo a year older
Yes they’re born in the same year, pretty sure lebron reclassified.
@@achuillual2716 okay thank you for clarifying because I’m pretty sure LeBron tried to get into the league in 2002 but was denied
@@rakwraithraiser7315 born a couple of months prior to LeBron not a year older
@@achuillual2716it’s cuz lebron bday is in December and schools considers birthdays after the school year start as a different class
Stop the cap u knew him at the abcd camp when he smacked all yall
Is it tape of this?
Goggle Lenny Cooke n Lbj at abcd camp melo was there to
He didn't know he before the camp... he could've met him there. Goofy
They didn't play in the same bracket so they didn't see each other until the all star game
How you know his life better than him ?
How tough it must be for Lenny Cooke sitting back watching Lebron steal his life.
Bruh what ..
@ Lebron literally ended Lenny Cooke's career. He's become irrelevant after that game
Steal his life?
Smh if that’s yo best friend you would still be in the league tf bron act like he don’t control the league when it comes to somebody else
Son stop hating Anthony said the Pelicans wanted him .
I thought lebron best friend was jay Z wife
???
Friendship?? Dont make me laugh
How you gonna question someone's friendship?
@@FreePlayMode Bron just wanted to keep him close to keep tabs on him
