Jonathan Bender - Broken Dreams MIX by MISIEK

[nassabuu22]

he didplay small foward but idk why they want him to switch to power forward for? he did a great job of playi the sf position and woulda been a great starter someday and changed the game for being tha tallest sf in the gme he killed anyone that garded him cuz of his hieght and streingth and his speed for a 7 footer dam and his range come on pacers way to fuck up his career

[jwest102005]

this instrumental is tite

[coltsrule5150]

i live in indianapolis and i thought this dude was gonna be the next kg , prolly woulda been if injuries hadnt held him back , this dude could jump , i found this vid trying to find an old vid of him dunking from the free throw line the year he was in the dunk contest while in practice in fact if you can find this vid please post it

[newagepun]

His career may have been cut, but damn he's got a fucking heart of gold. A guy who certainly put back to his community while other top draft picks let success get over their heads.

[TheSkaen]

What song it is ?

[Kevinownsyouall]

It hasnt got nothing to do with it but, i was playin nba 2k10 and i found this guy on the Knicks, of the offical roster, he was listed as a SF/PF and 7'0'', The tallest SF ever?

[bkthaking]

sad to look at the stands then and now. yeah i admit the pacers had some troubled players but atleast the talent and abiltity was there. and also shoutout to jonathan bender, such a hardworker who gives it his all and had all his talent and dreams shattered by injuries

[zetrain]

Too bad his body let him down. I remember his feat of 30 pts at the mcd game in 1999

[CircleCityCurry]

@zetrain the Pacers tried to have him gain weight way toooo fast, which wasn't his natural body type and it wrecked his knees, you can't gain 30 lbs in one summer and expect your body to adjust with all the running and jumping, they ruined his career in my opinion, but he could be a good role player for NY

[oneoneone5]

@CircleCityCurry You're way off on this. Way off. His knees were bad from the beginning. He didn't gain weight other than through strength training, and he certainly didn't gain 30 pounds in one summer.

[oneoneone5]

@zetrain 31, if I remember correctly. Broke Michael Jordan's record.

[TERRANiE1]

He went to my skewl picayune jr high n picayune memorial high

[kouras7suns13]

but he is at the New York Knicks!

[fivestunna]

he didnt retire he plays for the knicks

[kgkgkg212121]

a 7-0 swingman!! but injury-prone...

[pakshekho31]

Jonathan Bender is a very good player

[straightedgerich]

i hope the knickks sign him again

[TheHornetsfan3]

i go to his school

[soccergenius1]

i bought his house...

[Ousvec]

really? :)

[zues98059]

Kid had major upside. Thats too bad. Could have been a great all star. Damn that 99 draft was loaded!

[cookiegate]

Kid was the number one player in high school but he busted.

[konrad271]

niezły filmik, widze że mniej znanych ale pod niektorymi wzgledami niezwykłych graczy wybierasz.pozdro

za to sub masz

[kamiloisk]

so tlante palyer. glad he comes back to NYK

[soojenite]

the pacers need to spend money and buy players other wise their financial future is uncertain, but in AFRICA there are millions of players, why they dont go there?

[TheSurfrack]

@soojenite oh no

[J8Lacy]

bender would have been fuckin sick if he never had his knee problems...pacers would also have a ring right now to...

[LucaBatti93]

He's BACK! =)

[droptopsixfo]

Bender had ups

[slader23]

He has returned and is playing for the knicks now

[seaLIFFY]

shame he got injured

[nikolamkd86]

I remember the name, but how his game.

[rayza98]

thats my cousin right there, big J.B!

[scientifik22]

4real man... yo cuzin was tight work, I first heard of hem in the 2001 finals, that might have been his rookie year

[Hauler24]

I don't why people think he is such a great player he average like 5points a game and like 4 boards or something like that in his time in the league. Talent wise he had something, but his production was god awful. Could be a decent pickup I really couldn't say.

[lauyiu]

welcome back bender, best wishes!

[carlosserraalco]

Gr8 Player and exceptional Beat

[tiltop11]

knicks keep darko on the bench because he's a bum him and curry both big for nothing

[PhoenixSuns008]

Crack

[yankfan6]

LETS GO KNICKS!!! WOAH!!!

[2fly4u305]

i hope the knicks dont keep him on the bench like they did to darko........ but DAM this guy can dunk.... knicks need a guy in the low post.... hopefully this guy can help... =)

[MCEntreri]

I hope he can stay healthy this time. He is a 7 footer with a 2 guard skill set; but he has not gotten a chance to develop.

[VSSP]

Yes, maybe he should have played college, he looks like a 7' KD

[TheBigsheed30]

I love this guys$

[PINTPO]

Thats a great song man, i think this song is of noreaga a american rapper but im not sure!

[OjilEye]

wait, how is he expected to get minutes?

[equan18]

Come on knicks!

[beaumiller81]

Only the Knicks would do this

[macdagod]

jonathan is sick

[thecheesburgler]

Darko and Bender.... love my Knicks.... hopefully these guys can show something

[babbahs]

What is the name of the song playing?

[phililoco91]

[CJ2694]

[NirvanaFC]

the Donnie Walsh connection :D

[BwoodsGod27]

HES BAAAAK!!! KNICKS SIGNED HIM TODAY

[BboyArTiSte]

I know right!! hopefully he's going to be a big help!!

[hidetoshi981]

it's so sad, he was unstoppable when he was healthy

[Carlos1341]

wtf dude... best season he avg. 7 ppg and 3 reb...

[Ninety2q]

I tell you what, he was always tight when playing NBA live. What instrumental is this from?

[RSB0171717]

hes doing some work with hurrican katrina relief by buliding houses

hes considered a bust even tho hes been injured alot

[ECWrulez360]

so he retired due chronic knee pain so what he doing now?

[bbugzyb]

almost 30. i went to high school with him and he graduated a year before me with my brother in 1999. always an exciting game when he's playing!!!!

[Slamwoo93]

how old is he?????

[EricFromVista]

damn the pacers were so good in 04 and 05. just bad luck with injuries

[rsb3118]

I miss JB he was good

[Udon40]

I hope he can comeback, he had the potential to be a superstar, now hopefully he can be a nice role player. still fairly young

[khadeemw91]

there;s no way he's comin back

[chocolatecity1974]

Come back to Indy, please!!

[JamesEarlMoans]

The Knicks don't need any projects. The Knicks need to turn this team over to Gallinari and Wilson Chandler and allow them to develop. I wish Bender luck but let him make his comeback elsewhere.

[Pule31]

Yes ! He can come back !

[LALakerFan4Life]

Jonathan Bender is making a come back! Possibly signing with the Knicks.

[phatcat2334]

hope he does very talented and versatile

[giggity0939]

wow if he wouldnt have had bad knees then the pacers would be a lot better. he had a lot of potential

[21BSanders]

what exactly happened to him?

[kenneff]

knee injuries

[NoName4ThisSite]

Stepped due to bad knees, but he's trying to make a come back to the NBA by playing for the Knicks.

[Hicksatpd]

Knee issues as others have said, but he also didn't know how to play the game very well. A+ talent, D- BBALL IQ. Would have been a God in NBA 2k9 with those physical abilities, though....

[Ousvec]

underrated man

[tleroy007]

i played with him in highschool in picayune, ms

[obcy84]

despite his NBa career was short (too short) he established him self as a good person who help others in need.

[wutever7288]

damn if he could of stayed healthy...such a talented big with all around skills...imagine how different the pacers would of been oneal bender and artest in the front court..

[acousticLU]

damn he woulda been great in indiana.

[qclakers]

damn had amazing dunks....

[55955955]

I always loved this guy, sad to see things happen the way they did but he hasn't let it affect him. He's been doing a lot of charity work over the past few years, he's a good man.

[BalwegDavaoHitman]

what happen to him btw why he retired

[Krop8]

[TheKingMisiek]
