russel simmons is phil jackson,  i think xzibit is scottie pippen.  Crooked I is kwame brown,  tons of talent but yet to prove themselves.  Hittman is Michael olwakandi,  whatever his name is,   he is on tha clippers,  they had high expectations but never really became much.  LL Cool J is Patrick Ewing,  it seems like they have both been in tha game for ever.

This gon be a Hawks thang, basically:

Fredro Starr is like Shareef Abdur Rahim, hella good but slept on.

Dre is like LeMieux(aight, hockey player, oh well), keeps coming back y'all.

Snoop's like Jacque Vaughn, just getting back into form.

Crooked I's like DerMarr Johnson, hella talented, just not too much experience or exposure.

Theo Ratliff's like Rakim, All-Star, but delayed modern exposure.

Iverson=Beanie Sigel

In a few years, both these guys will have the top spot in their respective leagues.

Brett Farve= LL Cool J

Both these guys are big dawgs, and have made it to the top already.

Derek Fisher=Nate Dogg

In Game 5 of the finals, everytime the 6ers started to comeback, Fisher hit a 3 and halted em in their tracks. When a rapper starts to lose their steam, Nate Dogg comes by and assists that major player with a hit, giving the major player most of the credit.

I doubt Beanie is gonna be on top of the rap game while Jay-Z is around.  I'm not going into what type of person Iverson is, because of a problem I have with him.  Anyway here we go, since I'm a Bulls fan, I'm gonna do it like this:

Snoop - Scottie Pippin
2pac - Michael Jordan
Suge Knight - Dennis Rodman (U don't know what to expect from him)
Death Row's current roster - the current bulls, cuz most are young and inexperienced in rap, but after a couple of years, will be on top of their game

No, no, it's because they both cross-dress.

I was thinking about the Suge thing, and I think he's more like Jerry Krause, the GM of the bulls, who knows talent when he sees it, but has made some bad moves and made some remarks that have pissed off many of the people that used to work for him.

Dr. Dre = Dr. J (Julious Erving) They both brought something into the game way back, which is used more than anything else these days. While Dr. J brought in his Fancy-Dunks that are mostly used today, Dre brought in his Musical Hip-Hop Beats that are mostly used today.

Damn, I only have tiem for that, ya'll can do the rest, peace...

shaq makes all of his teammates better

dre's the most comercially dominating rap producer ever (i mean god damn just look at the first week sales of the mmlp, doggystyle, and 2001, not to mention all eyez on me wouldnt of been as succesful if it wasn't for cali love)
shaq is the most dominating player EVER


dre's the best producer ever
