9-BALL: Jim REMPE vs Rodney MORRIS - 1995 21st SANDS REGENCY 9-BALL OPEN
Рет қаралды 44,096
2 жыл бұрын9-BALL - In 1995, “Rocket” Rodney Morris and “King James” Jim Rempe faced off at the Sands Regency 9-Ball Open. Morris turned professional in 1994 at just 25 years old. He had no professional credentials at that time, but it must be noted that in 1996, he defeated Efren Reyes for the 1996 U.S. Open 9-Ball title. Rempe, 48, had a long list of major accomplishments worldwide, starting his major tournament wins back in 1971 with a Hustler’s World 1-Pocket title in the infamous Johnston City All-Around tournament. From 1972-78, he won 23 pro tournaments in many disciplines and garnered some World titles. His career slowed down by 1995, so let’s see how things turned out.
David Maddox and Scott Smith handled the commentary.

I would love to see the match with him(King James)vs Efren Reyes where Efren hit the 5 rail shot that's still argued it fouled but if it did why didn't anyone react? The reason they didn't was because it didn't foul it was old video and in the old video equipment some time it glitched on compression of moving target's filmed.

What a pleasure to watch a couple of guys who don't take 40 seconds plus on every shot. Not that playing at a quick tempo works for every player, but DAMN it is sure a lot more fun to watch. And the quality does not suffer here. I'll bet the TPA for both of these guys was above .900 for most of the match.. One of the most enjoyable matches I've seen in a while!

The problem is that they make the game look so easy that most people don’t equate it to a sport nor do they consider the skill necessary to play at that level.

Rodney had a great stroke in the early days. As soon as it "devolved" into that which he still has nowadays: a jabby, short, push stroke, he could never reach the top players.
