RAPTORS FAMILY: CONGRATULATIONS TO MARKQUIS NOWELL



RAPTORS FAMILY: CONGRATULATIONS TO MARKQUIS NOWELL

Shout out to Maris yes sir I’ve been holding on to this information for a couple days I wanted to make sure I had the right amount of energy I wanted to make sure I got everything off my chest that I wanted to get off my chest before

I touched on this topic now that I’m I got a clear mind and a clear heart and I said my piece about whatever happened with the trades and the new look and all that other stuff now I can congratulate him and be sincere and completely

Focused on this one I want it to be completely focused cuz this is New York it’s is my city this is the town and it deserves the right amount of energy and emphasis shout out to Maris no well we got us a player that’s participating in the Allstar

Weekend and I I purposely don’t talk about him because I don’t want to seem like I’m showing favoritism unless it’s something to show cuz I I’ll go overboard if I feel like it if I want to I’ll go overboard but I don’t want to I want to

I want to let him build up to the point where he’s on the main stage and getting busy and then I can then W then it’s then it’s going to be the peacocking and the and the favoritism right now I don’t want to show favor to them Just sh I

Want him to go ahead and and do what he got to do I’m watching though I’ve been I’ve been paying attention I’ve been getting Clips I’ve been catching things I just didn’t want to say nothing focusing on the team that’s on the court and whatnot I ain’t want to make it seem

Like I’m showing my city you know the excess amount of love that I should be because it hey it it it it’s it’s clear lopsided when I talk about my city it’s not even close when we got one of ours at the point woo who play like we played from my era

[ __ ] I just be waiting for the right time I don’t want to just go crazy about any old thing I want to make sure it’s right I want to make sure my favoritism and energy is Justified G League Allstar it’s a Justified moment for me to go in the

Direction I’ve been wanting to go in anyway I done spoke my pce about everything else I got it off my chest I’m good but right now I could completely focus on the fact that and I’mma say this and I mean it it’s not an allstar game if there’s no New York

Point guard in the game I’m sorry it’s just not it’s not allstar game if there’s no New York point guard in the All-Star Game in my eyes and in a couple millions of other people it don’t even count we don’t even watch it I can’t even count how many Allstar games I’ve

Watched since the last one when Steph and AI went crazy and I know AI is from VA but Steph and AI that comeback beating Kobe and Shaq and all them that that was the that was one of them ones that was the last time

I felt like the show was the show it was the right time skip was popping N1 was po it was a movie there’s a reason why people hang from trees to see us play there’s a reason why New York point guards during that crack era [ __ ] used to hang

What outside the windows on the fences woo it was no Instagram no f it was we was outside hooping for real it was no Instagram Facebook none of that [ __ ] and and it gets Lost in Translation cuz nobody only only a few people there only a few people experienc that and we

Can’t really we can explain it cuz we when we around each other and we talk about it it’s we we capture the moment but people who are outside of that era don’t get it because there’s not enough examples of that era anymore but when we

See this kid when I see Maris oh he remind me of my era oh he remind me of the of the mole Browns and the Cory wries you feel me he remind me of the brues he remind me of the the curry Thompsons he remind me of the point guards from man

Listen it ain’t an allstar game if for New York point guard ain’t playing I’m sorry I don’t count it I don’t know what y’all been counting as far as Allstar games I ain’t count one since like 2001 if a New York point guard is not an All-Star Game it don’t count I’m sorry

It don’t count to me it’s just another group of guys playing with LeBron all right whatever that’s I’m cool all right man whatever not watching it like that I got [ __ ] to do but I bet you I’ll be watching this g-league joint though oh it’s going to be a movie it’s going to

Be worth every second of my time it will have my undivided attention it ain’t no allstar game unless the New York point guards in I’m sorry you think when the N1 mixtape was running around y’all was chasing them buses for nothing you do know most of them guys

From New York that that y’all was they were third they were in their 30s they were literally either late 20s early mid-30s for some of them I was F what and and salute to hot sauce and the Prof Professor but outside of that it was still bone collect outside

You know what I mean it was still it was still Kem you already know best kept secret like what we it don’t count if ain’t no do your point guard it I’m sorry it was that we don’t get to see that no more and when we talk about it our whole

Body not just our eyes but our whole body light up you had to have been there your camera if you could catch those moments back then probably would have melted or exploded games last until 2: 1:30 12:30 unlimited you got all these different ages [ __ ] watching six seven

Eight hours of basketball not on TV outside sitting outside getting the places two hours three hours before the game this is back when you had to get the 55th two three hours to get a seat then you sat and watched maybe four five hours of basketball man [ __ ] shout shout out to

Mark ke man I’m definitely going to be watching that game I know I know he going to do something I love watch I that’s the only All-Star game I’m checking for that’s the only All-Star game I’m checking for I’m sorry I’m I’m I’m not checking for nothing else I’m

Not even watching Allstar Weekend I’m only watching the g-league allstar game and I’m going to bed I’m not watching no Dunk Contest I don’t want to see step shoot threes I don’t want to see nothing leave me alone all I want to see is a New York

Point guard in the allstar game and then I’m going to bed that’s it that’s going to be the highlight of my day that’s it B money I’m watching that one a New York point guard Allstar Weekend match made in heaven I I’ll take that it’s a start it’s a start it’s

Going to be a movie that g League game if you think with with immani Bates oh if they paymani Bates with with with oh my god with Maris [ __ ] that boy might drop 50 and Mars might have 25 five assists yeah watching that game yes sir I definitely watching that game oh my

God it’s going to be lit that’s the game that’s going to be the one that’s it that game gonna be fire he definitely going to do his numbers definitely and I like what he’s doing for the g-league team 15 points eight assists two steals he’s doing it the right way I know he

Put a lot of pressure on themselves with the with the quote he put a lot of pressure himself with the social media but I wasn’t going to hold that against him not [ __ ] I don’t care it’s okay let me see what the process look like he’s going about it the right way

The same way Fred OG Pascal they made their name in the G League they didn’t come in with a silver spoon in their mouth like some people they made their name in the g- league and built from there he’s he’s doing it the right way

I’m not going to get in the way I’m not going to be critical cuz it ain’t time yet when he gets to the main stage and he’s performing then we’ll have tougher conversations when there’s more responsibility put upon him just like everybody else but right now he’s

Building his game the right way we need somebody that could change pace and facilitate at that level that’s not like everybody else everybody can’t have the same game we tried the 6′ n 7 foot wingspan it only counts the players can actually play now we got to find guys that

Actually could hoop no matter what they look like let’s let’s get to the let’s let’s get to the hooping and getting baskets Adam Silva created a a a lane for a certain type of basketball that we’re going to love watching it’s getting back to basketball a lot of the

Politics is getting out of the way a lot of people who who who were tied in politically with the NBA to to get calls and to get you know certain favors they going to be out of here soon it’s going to be back to square one and guys are

Going to have to hoop and prove themselves that’s why I’m glad I like the fact that he’s doing it this way he’s going to deliver in the G listen he’s going to deliver in that allstar game just like he’s been delivering at the G League level all together like he’s doing what he’s

Supposed to do what let’s see I can’t wait till this what what he’s doing is translating into the main stage that’s that’s all I want to see that’s all I want to see he’s going to work himself into a place where he’s going to get that big opportunity and that’s all

That’s that’s how it’s supposed to be done I hate the fact that we have to give guys opportunities based off for situations and I but I understand it cuz you know we’re all adults but you you appreciate it more when you earn it you take care of it and prepare for it

Better when you earn it you love and you you adore it a little more it’s very important that you appreciate opportunities when you’re giving them every every accomplishment should mean the world to you espe once you put forth the work you can’t Outsource and leverage relationships to get everywhere everybody don’t have that

Luxury and you can only do that but for so long at some point you got to prove that you can do that job and he’s proving that he can do that job at the g-league level and he’s going to get the next opportunity to move on and make an

Impact on the main platform on the main stage but for the most part that allstar game though woo think I’m not I can’t wait I can’t wait till Allstar Weekend I’m watching that game and that game only that’s it I actually thought that that that that um Freeman Liberty

Would get the nod I don’t know if he got I don’t know if they named him yet or not but he’s averaging almost 24 points a game I thought maybe he would have got that nod but they gave it they gave it to Maris great choice his aggression and his passion

For basketball is being rewarded it’s it’s it’s beautiful to see a era of New York basketball that’s relevant now because a lot of old New York doesn’t exist anymore you know with the gentrification of areas and a lot of New York York is moving out moving to different places you know Texas and

Georgia and Florida and Charlotte and places like that some people even moving out to the West Coast like my era in New York everybody’s pretty like a lot of us moved and left and you know shifted it was just time to go right we don’t connect with what’s there now because

It’s like it’s like our New York never like we got new people in the stores you got a everywhere and salute to them for opening up corner stores everywhere but for us it was just the bodegas you know what I mean now there’s a store there’s

Like three stores on every block so if you can walk you might walk two blocks and see six different Corner type little bodegas my [ __ ] you might see six bodegas on one block all sell butross the street three more corner stores everywhere everybody making sandwiches

Is is it’s crazy but some just sell bud it’s all good though but our old New York the vacant Lots they used to be vacant Lots they done put up new buildings and you got new people and you know it just feels like you you don’t fit

Anymore you don’t fit like the old spots you used to shop are gone movie theaters are gone you know what I mean like certain things that you you you held close to your heart no longer even exist or even hold relevance now it’s like you you walking by spots that

As a kid was like your part of your dream part of your your everyday life you used to fantasized are going to certain places you know what I mean now those are like antiques or places of of of oldheads walking by talking about what used to be some people standing in front

Reminiscing and it’s it’s to see somebody that resembles that era of basketball it it it reminds me that all we did exist it really it really did happen cuz sometimes you forget and you forget how how electrifying it was how important like this is back when Catholic school teams will were

Everything you had to go to Catholic school if you wanted to go to a D1 play D1 or you had to be super nice in the public school system but the Catholic school kids you know they all played for goutos they played for Riverside before they broke off from Young Life and went

To Riverside you had Aim High you got all these different teams you know what I mean but Catholic school is where a lot of the superior Talent was and they wasn’t they have to pay to go to school they got scholarships it was just one of those

Things where you know now you got public school kids that are just as good and some Public School everything is just it’s complete 360 because there’s more there’s more schools now in New York City there’s more Public Schools than ever before some of these schools got

Like three schools in them you know what I mean so it’s never going to be the same and sometimes you just look for something that reminds you of what that y’all was that this is what it was like just to show kids that’s what I’m when I tell

You about what I’m telling you about that’s what I mean and he’s like one of the only I’m not goingon to even hold you Maris Noel is like one of the only in years since the Skip and the Jamal Tinley and you know the egg codas

You know what I mean those like since that of course you know we had R Strickland Mark Jackson Kenny Smith you know Kenny Anderson Kenny Anderson by far is my favorite New York point guard you know what I mean of course you had Nate you had all

These other point guard you still had future you still had Master rob you still had Curry Thompson you still had all these other guys you all the way you know you had Sunshine at one point like you had so many great point guards you had you know can’t forget the Black Widow

Like it’s just so many so much talent so many dope ball players like it’s dope to this it’s it’s it’s magnificent to see him play but I when I talk about him it’s it takes me back and sometimes you don’t want to go back there because it’s like that’s the crack

Era that’s that that it’s it’s a certain part of it’s like a it’s it’s a 80 6 to 94 window maybe 93 say we’ll say 94 that window that eight-year window that was right right before you know right around the time right right before Illmatic Dro between

80 between between you know douge fresh and Slick Rick then the nas IL mtic like in that that eight that eight-year span yo magnificent like magnificent basketball magnificent point guards incredible error and when I see him it reminds me of what used to be and what

Should be now but you know kids are doing other [ __ ] but yeah I’m watching that game trust and believe that that’s the only one I’m watching and he’s the only reason why I’m watching it that’s a fact so salute to Maris Noel and yeah yeah I

Pay attention I be aware I just don’t want to I don’t want to it cuz it it go it could go somewhere and then y’all like n he’s showing favoritism nah I’m just I want to give him the same the same respect and the same energy I give

Everybody else but it’s hard to do that because he’s from the town he’s I’m sorry I got to show favoritism if I yo if I watch him play and I close my eyes and I open them I swear it’s 8889 all over again 9091 the BBD when BBD drop poison I can hear

Poison in the projects right now when I I watch him play I just be hearing just certain songs just hearing certain songs remember certain errors remember certain like watching his game just that’s remembering what it felt like in the summertime having a tournament game and seeing that going to different places getting

Off the train walking into the what and you heard that music and S of Cs out what man listen yo it it and you don’t know who was watching you or who you was looking at until you watch some of these old these old these these documentaries with some of these Power

Players back then and you like yo I remember homie he was at one of my games and he was oh I know him I know him and you like damn like wow basketball connects you to a lot of legendary figures that people still talk about to

This day and you like yo they watch he was at one of my he watched me play all Sumer and he and I remember that one and I remember I remember that face I remember seeing him when I played in Harlem I remember that one like and you remembering these

Faces and you’re like damn I basketball took me and wow whenever I watch him play it just reminds me of that time man when family was family despite that you know the drug era the crack era family was still family still holding on for dear life so yeah I’m going watch that

Allstar game and like I said it ain’t an allstar game if a new York point guard ain’t in it it don’t count to me I’m sorry I’m sorry if a New York point guard ain’t on it I it don’t count I’m not counting it now if Scotty makes the

All-Star game I’m watching that definitely goonna watch that respectfully I’m watching that once again favoritism but outside of that no Pascal makes it OG makes it okay I’m watching that too I’m watching that too but there’s something about a New York point guard being in an allstar game

That makes the it makes it I just wish it was at the Garden I wish he had a chance to do what he about to do at the Garden Indiana is a good place to start too they got I like they Court too it’s gonna be a

Movie yeah I want to see that I want to see that I want to see immani Bates play with play with Maris let’s let’s see if let’s see if immani could put up 50 and Maris could get like 25 assists and grab the MVP cuz that’s the only reason why

We like being in Allstar games if a New York is in the allstar game we trying to get the TR not the win the MVP that’s the one you want all that other [ __ ] is you can talk about that later but the MVP trophy is the one that counts that’s it that’s it

That’s what we plotting on we stay plotting on a allstar MVP trophy everybody can’t get one it was a hard to come by Boy especially when everybody trying to get the trophy all 22 24 players [ __ ] [ __ ] don’t let somebody have 15 points in the first half oh he going to get get

The MVP he get he get 15 more he he put up 30 and we win a he getting it you just got to accept that but shout out to Maris Noel he gave me a reason to watch the Allstar Weekend even if it’s for a little while I’m out of here peace

  1. And i stand on the statment i made as soon as we drafted him (even though we traded for Quickley) …Markquis will start for the Raptors atleast one game this season

  2. Get him on the court wth NBA level talent and he has the potential to lead the leauge in assist after he gets familiar wiyh the system

  3. Honestly thought that either Markquis or Freeman-Liberty was gonna get called up when Malachi got shipped out… But then we got all that loose change back from the Pacers.

  4. When every I watch him play this verse comes to mind " I leave you stiff like a mannequin ain't no need in panicking
    I aim for your abdomen and cut like Kenny Anderson!" The real ones will know this song!…well deserve selection!

  5. Talk that talk, bro. Marquis is a future key piece to the new Era of the toronto Raptors. Hecanhooooop!!!

  6. You the man chev. Your prediction are coming through. Nowell will come to hand at right time, and will be the next Freddy. I like to listen to people who have passion for the game,and knowledge.

  7. The young God, put in that work. So happy for him. I'll never forget that video of him when he got the call to be a raptor. Him an the boys went crazy, when Bobby called him

  8. Congratulations Markquis! He is an amazing player. Cant cheat on hard work. He been killing in the G-league and it got him to the playoffs (the only raptor).

  9. No Scottie, no O.G, no Pascal, I’m not watching the All-Star either. But I will watch the G League one and cheering Markquis who totally deserve it, he worked hard✊🏾🔥💪🏾
