Sebastian Telfair: Through The Fire (Part 13)

[samfloyd2]

God bless him

[flippy0710]

I mean yeah hes not as good now and hes nowhere to be found I think he should of went to college too...but look he made it to the NBA and proved all the critics wrong when everyone doubted him! This documentary is one of the most motivational things I've ever seen in a long time.

[jasonp4h]

Sellout he should went to college first he woulda been way better now look at him....

[RomeDCarlo]

@jasonp4h hindsight is 20/20

[waljayo]

fuk i was in near tears when he got drafted, that was amazing

[spd89]

if tears didn't well up in your eyes after seeing his family's reaction, you have no soul. I still think he should have went to college, but it's easy for me to say that after the fact. Telfair thought he had a chance to make that impact and took it. He may not be the all star some people wished he would be, but he made it regardless.

[TwizteDreamZ]

omg steven a smith on tv at 3:23 lol

[MissBenn25]

I'm glad that he made it...but I hate to see people spending money before they make it....

[GabeRozier]

Jamel is a good brother. I know if I went 4 years in college, got my degree, led the best basketball conference in the country in scoring and didn't get drafted, but my little brother, who's 6 inches shorter than me and can't shoot like me got drafted in the first round, I'd me the most jealous nigga in the world

[DatPicksburghGuy]

@GabeRozier the oldest brother is even better. he's the whole reason all his brothers are so good cuz he works em hard and he's always positive and hyping them up. he's basically their dad.

[SLVrespect1714]

wow this is great,coney island all day,yea he isnt what ppl thought would be (meaning the ppl who saw em ball in hs and all that)but at least he made it,how many ppl can say that,i wanna be one of those ppl that can make it to the pros

[williamabbs]

My eyes Got a Lil Watery!

[Az62452]

What a beautiful feeling man.

[DkilluminatiX1]

Dreams....<3

[big592]

save your money sebastian big family one paycheck bum ass fat brother

[westt34]

and i dont understand he gets his brother a 300 but gets his coach a Beamer man wtf Dan was underappreciated by Bassy he gets Jameel his adopted bro a beamer that hadnt been released for training him for like a month while Dan is the one who was with him throughout the whole season shit maybe he would play better if dan was to get in his face before every game on some reggie miller shit

[westt34]

1 thing i dont understand about this is throughout the whole movie he keep saying imma get my mother a house imma get my mother a house why is ethan still playing for lincoln like he live in coney island still or does he do 1 hell of a commute every morning

[lastscorpion0922]

wer u at now?

[freshprinceofbkl]

This Almost made me cry..

[jhood75]

was that "lil bentley" a Chrysler 300?

cause that ain't not lil bentley love the car

but its no bentley

[scarface331]

Ridiculously shallow...."we drivn beamers, lil bentleys...all kind of diamonds." Is that all life is about?

[Knowie0782]

@scarface331 i see what your saying..but when u come from nothing, and youve had doubters your entire life, its only human that your going to celebrate, even when u come upon the smallest of good fortunes..but i definately agree with u and understand where your coming from

[jromani09]

man bassy's got some real cool brothers

[Akronsfinest21]

His brother is next!!!!

[airyoxus]

best part of da movie

[camdash]

av watched all this documentary and everyone seams to be putting him down but so what hes not an all star hes still made it in the nba a pro a dream for anyone

[codyankeehawk1]

Great Documentary. I just got his book, "The Jump", for christmas. A pretty good book.

[efonius]

this part makes me every time.

[Kantankruz]

Should have bought his brother Ford's and invested his money man.

[Chinakid614]

dude is only averaging 9 points a game now he btter step it up his ass gon be over seas like iverson

[590221010]

Sebastian gonna be as broke as Antoine when he's old.

[uptown89finest]

he might have money..but he been in da nba for da past 6 years and still no ring.... thats not love for the game.. sucka

[ANTBOND004]

man i was this close to fuckin bawlin out in tears bro i fuckin love telfair. we got the same lifestyle only hes a better baller than me. brooklyn in the house. my father passed away when im at 16, we got little money, and all i wanna accomplish in life is to make my mother proud of me and just cry in my brothers arms and have them be proud that i did something big. what a dream come true for bassy my heart goes out to him and his family. marbury and telfair are my idols man i love you guys

[GabeRozier]

i aint gon lie, if i was his brother jamel, id be the most jealous motherfucker in the world. i go to the big east, 4 years, lead the league in scoring and not get drafted. then this little high school nigga gets drafted in the 1st round, smh

[IchatRus1]

this is part 13 and he was the 13th pick

[darkface405]

that right there shows you a reason to always work hard,no matter what people say about you.

[TrueDiligence]

This shit makes me cry...Forreal

[efonius]

@TrueDiligence me 2

[karan65]

Yo at 6:32, Bassie's lil bro takin off his shirt like he a G, heheee made me laugh a lil

[standarduserxy]

i am 29, white, from europe, built like a tank, nobody fucks with me........ but, lemme tell you, i cried watching this. thats some emotional stuff right there. Amazing documentary, real nice watching bassy and his family working for their dream, and then making it! People need to stop talking ish about this guy, cause like 99% never worked this hard to achieve their goals. Plus, this black-white racial nonsense has to stop. I didnt care bout bassy before but this makes me respect him.... peace!

[akamailman]

his brother deserves that Bentley. Such a good guy.

[famching]

@akamailman LOL....that ain't no Bentley....its a Chrysler 300C...they call it a Little Bentley because it looks like one...

[akamailman]

@famching Fascinating.

[babystifler23]

This is hands down the realest scene i have ever seen as a little kid this is what you dream about, draft day. The day your entire life changes, everyone in that town really did feel like they made also. The emotion is redic, so real and so pure.

[tommybrown187]

@babystifler23 yup everybody that picks up a ball dream of this day

[mrprotege10]

Da 13th pick on part 13 wats da odds

[akamailman]

Love the older brother. WHAT THEY GON' DO NOW?!?!?!?!?

[MrJeckel]

There's some dumb fools in this comment box. Black people are the only ones that hyped bass? LOL espn, fox sports, all big media outlets are Predominately WHITE if anything it's the whites that hyped this dude...

[CFl3tch4]

my eyes tear up every time i see this

[aristeadandjoey]

Broo..thiss shit givee mehh goose bumbs....

[ifsowhathow]

I cried like I was there lol....best part of the movie..real inspirational

[DrewBreesMVP9]

he just lost his passion right after he got the millions. Look at iverson, dude worked hard to get where he got and he never let the passion die down.

[HustlaProduction]

Tiny looks like T-Mac a bit.Lol

[dustblaaze]

everyone saying sebastian fucked up by not going to college he's made close to 12 million for being a bench warmer. his draft stock would've dropped had he been exposed at louisville. he took the guaranteed money, sure he aint a superstar but better an average nba player with millions than an average dude playing in europe making 50k a season.

[MrPhillyrick1]

white folks are insanely jealous of blacks and pray for our downfall! you can tell when whites have a miserable life. they come on the internet and try to put down blacks that are in a better position than they are so they can feel good about themsleves.

[darcskies777]

@MrPhillyrick1 Pretty much what whites do man. Very pathetic.

[Gvidas1]

@MrPhillyrick1 Yeah it's true man... I am white, but I don't care about color of people cause we all are humans. And I wish to be successful for everyone. And the last thing I want to say is that I hate, people like you said jealous, they are fools...

[ebaby414]

There may be people more talented than you...but There isnt any excuse for anyone to work harder than you do.!

[silentassasin50]

to bad joker was a total bust in the league, black people always hyping bball players up its stupid.

[mholla2]

i loved this PART!!!! od emotional 4reall!! I stilll like Bassy! 1st Point Guard to ever get drafted straight outta HS.....NYC!

[marstravolta22]

and then the IRS comes and takes all their toys. Guess they didn't consider the possibility that he was gonna be a bust.

[ksuschmidt]

@marstravolta22 : aint' that the truth!!

[Bradin14]

Cried when his name was called.

[dre19872005]

i almost cried yo

[Plattinumstatus]

i cry on that part every time too yo... everytime i watch that DVD

[dtippy]

part 13......13th pick

[astewart2005]

Who's that white dude sitting next to Stephen A. Smith @ 3:47?

I forgot his name.

[Emil308]

Tom Tolbert...he was a guard with the Magic and Clippers back in the day.

[astewart2005]

Thanks.

[KingFrederick110]

he whole life changed in that one moment bro

[TheYM1]

When hugged his whole family, you can't help but get emotional. This is what its all about

[dukemanjapan]

he cried b/c he new he would STINK in the league, telfair is a BUST, no one wants him, how many teams in 5 years? 4? 5? journeyman forever

[TheYM1]

he is actually doing pretty good and i think that the clippers should seriously think about starting sebastian because baron davis has become inconsistent

[veteranz]

it all started with the lebron draft...hyped up the draft

[mchoops91]

telfair is still good

[KingFrederick110]

no doubt he just gotta pick it up...

[ncaagirls]

he shuda went to college louisville then nba he wudda been ready a better shooter and stronger

[westt34]

its so funny how niggas treat sebastian like he the biggest bust man what about that greg oden nigga me personally i never seen a nigga come 4rm High School That ran the point except for him Livingston That year and both of them wouldve did what they did on the High School Level on The College Level Same players hell mite have done better becuz they teams would be more talented until another young point come out averaging that 5 in they 1st year then yall need to stfu I mean look at Greg Oden

[fuckboy1991]

this is a great story and all.......too bad that nigga is ass now what is this like his 4th time he got traded? His ass is gonna be overseas with his bro

[Game4564]

actully he doin betta on da clippers.... remember chauncey when he first came ni99a got traded 3 times before he started getting off

[Pmike2345]

that wuz crazy though, 4 a small point guard like him 2 go from high school straight 2 the nba

[Kellz325]
