Click Here To Check Out Darrell Armstrong, the NBA’s 6th Man of the Year and Most Improved Player of the Year With the Orlando Magic Who Checked in With Brandon ‘Scoop B’ Robinson & Scoop B Radio.

 

Dallas Mavericks assistant coach Darrell Armstrong has one of the diverse and impressive basketball portfolios out there.

Winning a ring as an assistant coach with the  2011 NBA Champion Dallas Mavericks, Armstrong’s accolades as a professional from 1991-2008 as a player were surely something to write home about.

Going undrafted out of Fayetteville State in 1991, Armstrong got his first gnaw at the NBA during the 1994–95 season where he played the last 3 games of the regular season for the Orlando Magic. While he manned the court as a floor general, Armstrong wowed the crowd and Magic management with his scoring ability.

As a member of the Magic, Armstrong simultaneously won the NBA’s Most Improved Player of the Award and the league’s Sixth Man of the Year Award in 1999. “After being in the league for three years, still on waiting on the opportunity and the chance,” Armstrong told me on Scoop B Radio.

“Putting in so much work, you know; to not only be a better player,  not only shooting the basketball, but also getting stronger in the weight room, helping me to be quicker and faster and stronger all those things adds up to one.”

Armstrong would end up sticking with the Magic through the 2003 season.

I first interviewed Armstrong when I was a Nets kid reporter and he was a member of the Orlando Magic during the 1997-98 NBA season.

Then and now, a few things stood out to me about him:

a). At 6 feet tall, he probably had the most hops imaginable for someone his size.

b). He’s a huge gospel music fan, with Fred Hammond and Kirk Franklin at the top of his list of his faves.

c). During his tenure with the Orlando Magic, Armstrong has had the distinction of being teammates with two of the most transcendent guards in the NBA not named Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant. Armstrong teammed with both Anfernee “Penny” Hardaway and Tracy McGrady.

With McGrady being inducted into Springfield, Massachusetts’ Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame this weekend, one can’t help but think about the excitement that was T-Mac, the scoring machine in the city that Walt Disney built.

Armstrong and T-Mac were on a team that included Grant Hill and coached by Doc Rivers and were supposed to make noise in the NBA’s Eastern Conference in the early 2000s. Grant Hill was starting at the point guard, Armstrong slid to the two-guard with McGrady staring at the 3 alongside Drew Gooden and John Amaechi at the 4 and 5, respectively.

That squad was loaded! Heck, Mike Miller came off the bench!

Man that team was potent, but Grant Hill couldn’t stay healthy. That is when Tracy McGrady took over with his scoring galore! “Tracy was very special,” said Armstrong. I’m fortunate enough to have that opportunity to wear that jersey; the Magic jersey alongside him and Penny. You know, I’m fortunate to be their teammate because, I mean every night you got the chance to see some type of greatness, some type of unbelievable scoring from both of them.”

Added Armstrong:

“With T-Mac, a lot of people don’t know or would know that T-Mac was a decent player when he left Toronto and he got the opportunity with that one playoff game where they played New York and Vince was being covered so much by all the guys on New York that T Mac started to get off. And people started to see T-Mac’s talent during the playoffs that year. That is when we went and got him and that is when he came to the Magic that next year and what he did from there was just amazing because that is what he was suppose to be doing when he got to Toronto. But it didn’t happen like that for his first two years and then people started to say: ‘okay this is what they were talking about.’ And he put in the work and he dedicated himself everyday when he got into the game that he was going to be one of the top players in the league and he did it. It was fun to see him and Kobe Bryant go at each other, Michael Jordan go at each other.  I was just amazed by it, the things that he could do. But he was something special.”

In 938 games, McGrady averaged 19.6 points, 5.6 rebounds and 4.4 assists. In 704 games, Penny Hardaway posted 15.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 5 assists.

So who was the better player? Tracy McGrady or Penny Hardaway? “Both of them could play defense and both of them could score,” said Armstrong.

“Definitely Penny was the better passer because  Penny was a point guard. Mac could still pass the ball as well, that is hard to say Scoop. They both did it in their own way and in their own style; the only thing I will say, that Penny was better than T-Mac was passing the basketball. Like I said, they both could shoot the basketball, they both could score the basketball, that is a tough one to say. Penny went deeper in the playoffs,farther than T-Mac has ever been; besides being with T-Mac with Spurs, but he didn’t play. But when he played, you know Penny and he in the playoffs, Penny, you know Penny lost in the championship as a starter. So I mean it is hard to say if there is any edge the edge I give to Penny over T-Mac is that he was a better passer than he was.”

Fair enough.

Armstrong is an assistant coach of the Dallas Mavericks. In a game of shoulda-coulda-woulda, if he were currently an NBA head coach, who would he pick to start his team in today’s NBA? “Damn Scoop, once again you give me another tough one,” said Armstrong.

“I say: oh man you can’t go wrong with either one of them. Penny played a one and T-Mac played a two. So that is why I say it is so different. S**t Scoop, I would probably take Penny because the reason I say I take Penny is because Penny would be ready to run the offense as a point guard, knows how to play the point, but also you can just knock the ball with two points. Mac wasn’t a point guard. T-Mac never ran the point guard, so T Mac was more of the two/three player. I would probably have to say Penny I have a bigger guard that would cause a problem at the point guard position because he would be different.”

In addition to talking about T-Mac and Penny Hardaway, Armstrong also chatted about his time playing at a historically black college in Fayetteville State. “I was playing because of the tradition of so many people knowing and so many athletes from the Charles Oakley to Earl ‘The Pearl’ Monroe to Rick Mahorn,” he said. “And you know now, even Stephen A [Smith] played  for Winston Salem State. Ben Wallace and myself, so it was amazing with the athletes and the fans always love to hear the Black National Anthem [Lift Every Voice And Sing] whenever they sang it”

Armstrong even weighed in on the notion Tim Duncan would join he, T-Mac, and Grant Hill in Orlando via free agency, summer 2000.

According to Armstrong, the probabilities of Duncan coming to Orlando were zilch, zip, zero, stingy with the dinero. Spurs coach Gregg Popovich thought it was for real though! “It was a nerve-wrecking time,” Popovich admitted in an interview. (H/T CBS Sports’ Matt Moore)

Added Popovich:

“It was hell. You get close to a player and you don’t want to see him leave. I never let myself believe he was going to stay. I was just getting myself prepared, for sanity reasons. It’s no fun.”

“It also seems like it takes forever to resolve. That’s the worst part of it. We made our pitch to him and let him be, let him make up his own mind.”

Darrell Armstrong tells a different story on Scoop B Radio: “Tim wasn’t going nowhere,” he said.

“I mean where Tim played at and finished at, that was where Tim was going to be. Tim wasn’t going to go nowhere. We all love to entertain and see who is going to be out there. I don’t even believe he even thought about leaving San Antonio especially after winning some Championships. So I mean, no he wasn’t going anywhere. Sometimes you call the guys when free agency starts and you call them and talk to guys and they wanted me to call and I was sitting there like I am not you shouldn’t even call this guy he isn’t leaving.”

If you’ve paid attention to DJ Khaled’s snapchat account, you may have seen the Major Key ambassador reference Catherine Brewton from BMI. Brewton held Khaled’s newborn son, Ashad Khaled and has been enamored by the innocense of Ashad just like everyone else. 

Check Out DJ Khaled and RESPECT MAG’s Brandon ‘Scoop B’ Robinson‘s #WORDSWITHSCOOP chat.

Well, now that we recognized Brewton from Khaled’s snapchat, how many actually know who is she is and what she does?

Brewton, BMI’s Writer/Publisher Relations VP has an extensive resume. Brewton, a native of Charlotte, NC,  grew up listening to the sounds of Aretha Franklin and Al Green and turned her love for music into a career.

After stops working at the Grammy’s, Brewton has been with BMI, the global leader in music rights management since 1997 and been instrumental in expanding performing rights deals with hip hop, r&b and gospel acts, publishers and songwriters like Kanye West, Rodney Jerkins, the Neptunes, Kirk Franklin, The Game, and Cash Money.

Catherine Brewton caught up with Respect Magazine and shared her journey and her major keys to success.

RESPECT MAG: In a recent interview, you stated that you’ve been in the music game since you were 12 years old, how did you get your start?

Brewton: I was an executive in finance. I worked in GE out of school, so I was not a music girl. I grew up in the church and had the opportunity to be blessed to come out of school and to go to work in a Fortune 500 Company. Through the progression of my life, I was solicited to work for the Grammys and then ended up working for the Grammys, and then opening the Atlanta office and subsequently doing the same for BMI, so I’ve been blessed. A lot of it has been has been that I’ve been very much committed to whatever I’m doing and I want to be the best in whatever I’m doing.

RESPECT MAG: Your journey began in 1996 when you worked the Grammys, which means you’ve been around music during the Golden Era. How has music evolved since you’re start and do you think we’ll ever see an age like that again?

Brewton: I believe that music is cyclical. It continues to evolve. Will we ever see that run again? I’m optimistic. I feel like there’s always a next Michael, Michael had his run, but there will always be another Wayne—when I saw another Wayne I mean someone who embodies the same type of power and realness that they have, so absolutely. But that was just the era of complete greatness.

RESPECT MAG: Your ability to sign people to BMI publishing deals has been well documented. How do you personally evaluate talent? How do you know if someone has that ‘It’ factor?

Brewton: When you hear a song and you hear them sing, and you hear a production. I met Rodney Jerkins when he was 17; I was involved with the Neptunes when they were first on the scene. I was in it from the early days. I signed Drake when it was mayhem, Nicki I signed, Wayne and Cash Money and all of those guys—Wayne was 14 when I signed him. So, I wouldn’t say it’s because I’m so brilliant, I just know that God has given me a gift, my gift is to see things early and to get on early.

Check Out Brewton In BMI’s How I Wrote My First Song Promo 

RESPECT MAG: Kirk Franklin and Rodney Jerkins are huge connectors that bridge the gap between hip hop, r&b and gospel. Being that you work with all three of those genres and grew up in the church, how seamless was it for Kirk and Rodney to intertwine with both cultures?

Brewton: Those are my brothers. I think it was about their passion and their understanding that music is about love. Whether you agree or not, it’s still about whether you believe in whatever the message is, you embrace it. If that’s not for you, turn it off—it’s that simple. But I believe that creativity has to be expressed in every form or fashion and there’s something for everybody. Gospel music is my first love. No question about it.

RESPECT MAG: What advice do you give those who may not want to be in front of the camera and in the studio and perform BUT wants to do what you do?

Brewton: Be committed to the cause. When God gives you a purpose and when you really understand what your God-given talents are, you operate in that space. Sometimes people chase things that are not for them. What I understood early on is that I was anxious for nothing. I had much prayer time and said: Lord order my steps, when you give me that platform you will be able to trust me to do the right thing. Kids need to understand that hard work is one facet of it, but what is your God-given purpose? Once your purpose is really laid out, everything else falls into place.

]]> Listen to Kanye West's 'Ultralight Prayer' With Kirk Franklin & Kelly PriceKanye West – Ultralight Prayer (Kirk Franklin & Kelly Price)

Kanye West’s latest album The Life of Pablo is a “contemporary” work of art. It continuously grows, and pushes the boundaries that never existed for Ye’ in the first place. On this Easter Sunday, Kanye West delivers a new interlude, titled “Ultralight Prayer.” Taking pieces from “Low Lights” and “Ultralight Beam,” Kirk Franklin and Kelly Price deliver a soulful performance.

Behind a choir, Kirk Franklin and Kelly Price deliver a prayer to those of us who need more faith, love, and spiritual-healing. Done with no instrumentation, the rhythm is founded by the choir, leading their voices through orchestration.

It presents us with the argument, is this the version that should have lived on the original album? That’s a tough snake to rattle as you compare what many are saying the best verse they’ve heard in a while, coming from Chance The Rapper.

With The Life of Pablo being an ever-developing piece of work, “Ultralight Prayer” could be developing into more.

Recently revealed how “Ultralight Beam” came together by Fonzworth Bentley, the trials and success of the song is powerful within itself.

“Kirk Franklin is a staple and a juggernaut of the gospel community. We got a studio for him on Saturday for the choir. How many people in the choir? We’ll keep that private, we’ll call that secret sauce,” Fonzworth said to FADER.

Bringing a secluded-rim of thought to the song, “Ultralight Prayer” is another product to add to Ye’s spiritual-based material.
