Elvis invented Rock 'N Roll

[Da Mayor]

I get tired of people taking credit for others' accomplishments. I was watching the Heat/Bulls game the other day & the announcer gave credit to Jason Williams (white point guard for Miami) for being the "creator" or "master" of the cross-over dribble! They proceeded to say how much influence he has had on today's youth & future point guards & showed a clip of him crossing up someone when he was w/ Sacramento & compared that clip to Dwyane Wade crossing someone that game. I know in the big scheme of things, this comment has no real importance, but I was kinda shocked to hear it. It completely ignores the contributions of cross-over legends such as Tim Hardaway or more recently Allen Iverson. It just made me think about the Elvis comments, Rocky Marciano comments & others! Your thoughts?

Yo!

I feel you frat. Alot of pioneers seem get forgotten along the way.

gets to me too.I think some people are just exposed late. I remember being little and watching Tim Hardaway explain the crossover on "NBA inside stuff". True BBall heads know that aint the truth but ones just coming about think it is.

on the other hand some people just like to make history suit them.


each 1 teach 1 (the truth)
