Nick Young: I Leave A Presence When I Walk Off Like Michael Jackson, Prince 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu Nov 20, 2014 5:16 pm

The Los Angeles Lakers are 2-0 this season with Nick Young in the lineup after starting the season 1-9 without him. 


“I can’t take all of the credit. I can take some of it,” Young said. “It’s all about my swag. That’s a part of my repertoire.” 


Young is averaging 16.5 points in 28.0 minutes over his first two games.


“I’m talking about how I just walk off. I leave a presence when I walk off. I’m like Michael Jackson, Prince, all them other guys.”

Nick and Kobe are going to come to blows one of these days.
It may even happen during a game. If you were one their teammates...to who's side do you jump to help? Or do you just stand back and let them kill each other? Neither of them are the most likeable guys in the world...can't say I would bother helping either.

I find it hard to believe that Kobe would have any problem as long as he's helping them win games. He put up with Artest's crazy antics, Nick Young is nothing by comparison.

He's a fool for this one. The same dude who thinks he's a better 3-point shooter than Larry Bird lol. I bet that swag of his will never see a 6th man award.

Except Artest never thought of himself as better than Kobe.
Swaggy P probably does.

I'd love to see him tell Kobe "Pass ?? Go get the rebound"

I mean it's cool and all and it's a blessing to play in the league for as long as he did so who am I to tell him how to act?

At the same time this year the Laker's are 3-9. That's nothing to laugh at.

We all understand that he was joking, right. Everything he said was tongue in cheek. The columnist rearranged his quotes to sound arrogant and self centered but Nick was really just messing around. The first quote from this article was a combination of Nicks answers to two different questions a couple minutes apart.

You said it. This is basketball. The presence you leave should be from athletic ability, not creepy artist. Hell even Rodman, the biggest "presence" had amazing athletic ability, at least on defense.
