I know a while back there was a "who is the tallest poster" thread. My cousin Mo must not have seen it. Mo (aka Supreme Allah) is almost 6'11" (like 6'10 3/4"). He has hops too. I seen him do a 360 windmill in a pick up game at the gym! It was crazy! He just had surgery though, so he cant really do much for a few weeks. Supreme Allah and I are gonna have to come down to SA some time next season for a GTG and watch a game or two. Maybe play some pick up ball with some of you all.



Unfortunatly I aint blessed with the same height he has. I stand at a whopping 5'6" tall. :depressed

Kind of like the Bucks, huh?

Supreme Allah

That coulda been funny if the bucks didnt have one of the most athletic players in the league to dunk all over everyone.

6'3 and I like to play Point Foward or Shooting guard. Probably could of been a lot better player if I didn't get distracted around 17/18. A lot of my friends suffered with the same problem, but some didn't and they ended up playing College ball in the states.

Too bad he cant make any shot other then a dunk or layup! But hey, they traded Ray Allen for him! :lmao

With the team we have now I think I might be able to forgive that trade.

I'm 5'9. But I read you're supposed to completely stop growing around 20. So I can get a growth spurt hopefully.

How much does everybody weigh? I weigh in at 165 lbs.

I dunno, your Pituary Gland in your Brain is supposed to stop secreting HGH around 19-21 so anything can happen. People go to college 5'6 and in a year there 6 foot.

Dre_7

21? So there is still a chance!? :lol

Maybe I can get taller before I turn 21 in Dec.

Im a few things. Mexican, Native American (Crow), Spanish, Poruguese, German, and American. LOL, but I am mostly Mexican. I am about 50% Mexican. So I guess that makes me Latino or Hispanic or watever.

Dre_7
07-31-2005, 09:34 PM
Mo (Supreme Allah) is half black and half white. My mom and his mom are sisters. They are both mostly white. Supreme's dad is black.


GIG, why you always so interested in race?

Supreme Allah
07-31-2005, 09:35 PM
He obviously wants to be black

Dre_7
07-31-2005, 09:42 PM
No, I just have never seen a white dude do a 360 windmill. Ive done a 360, but not a windmill at the same time. Have any pics?

It may not have been. Looked like a 360, but its just what I saw. You would have to ask him to find out exactly what he did. But all I know was that it was dope!!

E20
07-31-2005, 09:45 PM
I thought Dre_7 and Supreme were Black at first glance.

Dre_7
07-31-2005, 10:21 PM
Haha Nah its cool. I like being tall but not that tall. The taller u get, the less cordinated u tend to be. Unless u are named Amare or something.

LOL Yup! Mo pretty much sucks at BasketBall! ;)

E20
07-31-2005, 10:23 PM
Eh...I dont' do pictures........ I look more like stud than a bitch...........:lol Dre_7 my brain functions in a way that so when I look at an avatar I think that the person looks and sounds like that. At first I thought Kori was kissing Stewart Scott in her avatar. I thought Shelly and SW were white ( I was right) I had AHF sounding like Jim Belushi(I still do). I thought JB_47 liked japaense related stuff etc...

07-31-2005, 10:32 PM
Y no pics? common fool, dont be a bitch. are u fat or something? its okay cuz Tpark is a little chubby.

I did say Mo sucked at bball. DId he play in HS or college or anything?

No, he played as a freshman, but he hurt his knee. Didnt play much after that. Too much on his knee to do a full season. And no he didnt suck. I was just messin with him. He was Okay. Just once he blew out his knee, he was just a big body.

Kori Ellis
07-31-2005, 10:34 PM
Recently, what did he have surgery for?

(No wonder he likes Nazr - they are both 6'10 3/4)

07-31-2005, 10:36 PM
He did the dunk in a pickup game. LOL Hes not crippled. Just didnt do well playin organized ball. The stress of a seaon, practice, etc wouldnt work. He still can play occasionally. He sometimes plays pickup games.

Stress of a season>? Huh? Its not stressful at all. Its a blast. The comradery with ur teammates is the best part. one of the best things i did in HS

I meant physically stressful, not stress stress. You'd have to talk to him about why he didnt think he could play.

HS basketball was a blast. Me and my friends would just fuck around everytime during practices and games. And our Coach was a complete doof. OMG the stuff coach said....hilarious. OMG Man there were some funny times. The ones that are the best were before the games when the Coach made his pre-game speech which was funny already but me and my friends would do some crazy shit to make other people laugh and during the huddles Coach would say some gay ass shit that would crack our ribs because we had to hold in our laughter. Man, good times.........So many memories. I have lots of stories but don't have the time to share them.

traveling all the way to Hotlanta was fucking sick. we went to an all black club. it was fuckin amazing! haha u should have seen my face. lol. those bitches can dance

Was this a club for kids?

E20
07-31-2005, 10:54 PM
Well I'm still in HS but, I decided to quit organized ball my last two years because my classes are getting harder and I got a job now so frankly I have not time for it now.

Supreme Allah
07-31-2005, 10:59 PM
It was physically stressful on my knees. I really destroyed everyone I played. I just ended up blowing my knee out a couple of days before my first HS game, it was terrible. I tried to come back the next year but my knees just couldnt handle all the constant pounding of a basketball season. So I had to stop. I still do pickup games and such, for the love of the game man, for the love.

What kind of HS league did you play in? HS season is only 3 months. And most HS leagues have 2 games a week. And the practices aren't tough if everyone is rotating in and the sprinting isn't anything serious.......

Well if his knee is that messed up, it doesn't really matter how long the season/practice was. He probably just can't play for any sort of extended minutes without being in pain or risking further damage.

Kori Ellis
07-31-2005, 11:06 PM
maybe maniscus....How tall were u in HS>? and how old are u now?

It has to be worse than meniscus. Meniscus is nothing to come back from.

Kori Ellis
07-31-2005, 11:13 PM
Look at CWebb, Penny, and Allan Houston. They are in great shape but still arent the same. Meniscus is extremely painful. It also depends on how bad you tear it.

They didn't just tear their meniscus. They needed microfracture surgery. No one ever really is the same if they need that.

If you just tear your meniscus, it's normally fixed with simple arthroscopic surgery and you are back on the court very soon.

Dre_7
07-31-2005, 11:13 PM
He tore something I think, not sure what. He would know, but I think he went to bed or sumthin. Its not too bad I dont think. He just didnt like the pain. I hope he doesnt get mad at me for sharing, but it was a combination of stuff. Not just his knee, but his grades, his mom, and other stuff that I wont get into. But he is not like crippled or anything. He wasnt a superstar either mind you, just average. I think he was aware that he wouldnt be in the NBA anytime soon. :lol

(Hope he doesnt kick my @$$ for sharin that stuff)

if u have a fucked up knee it is. U must have been on an easy team. try varsity at a good school, then say its easy. for my school, we conditioned 5 days a week for 3 months straight (before even touching a basketball). We averaged running around 6-8 miles a day. it was the hardest thing ive ever done
Then your Varisty must have been a contender for State Championship. Varsity at YVHS it's usually the from September down to middle of October Open Gym starts and after that the Head Var Coach picks who comes to condintioning meetings and the most is a two mile run with some sprinting and calesthenics. VAR here only practices Mon, Wensday, Thursday and if the coach is pissed he might have some night practices. But that's about it. And the team was pretty good too.


Well if his knee is that messed up, it doesn't really matter how long the season/practice was. He probably just can't play for any sort of extended minutes without being in pain or risking further damage.
Well if he had a whole year to rehabilitate I don't know why it would be so hard not for him to play again on HS level unless if he didn't really have the time then I understand, I've seen some good players get injured and just don't try anymore for reasons unknown.

Dre_7
07-31-2005, 11:44 PM

And they didnt win once you were on the team??

Yeah, a 6'8 full-time vollyball player with coordination and decent hands would have made him a All-City tight-end in SA, and that's not playing football (if you get my drift).

I am 5'5.
I am 1 inch taller than my husband.
However.. he thinks he's 5'5 and can't be told different.. even if you measure him and it reads 5'4 - he says you did it wrong.
So...... I tell people I'm 5'6.
