When did he graduate? Jamal Crawford attended the same high school. He was a senior when Nate was a freshman.

J.R Smith and Andrew Bynum played in highschool's in my area. Pretty sure my school played J.R Smith's before.

About 3-4 years ago Elton Brand came to practice basketball at the sports club I play basketball at during his quiet visit to Thailand. He was here for about two weeks and he came very early in the morning. All he did was just shooting around and other simple stuffs to make sure that he stays well oiled. And yes this is true. And no I have no photos or whatsoever because I didn't get to see him. I had to go to school early and it was about the same time he come to the gym. Other guys did and took some photographs with him.

It's probably that trip to Thailand's fault why Brand started sucking. :x

Bogut was in my homeroom in Year 9, and his locker was next to mine.

Did he have a bottom locker?

Re: Yall may never believe me!!

He didn't, actually. But he also wasn't that tall at that point. Only about 6'1 or something. I was 6 foot myself. But I was the one who had to stop growing. Where's the fucking justice?

Who wants to be 7 foot anyways? Most 7 footers don't have necessary co-ordination to become millionaires in the NBA.

Met Andrew Gaze when i was at Melbourne for a tournament. And in the World Masters which was held very recently here in Sydney, my friends dad who's also my coach, played in the same team with Steve Carfino and Bruce Bolden (former NBL players) and in the finals they played against a team from Chicago, and turns out they had 4 former NBA players in that team.

Once, when I was 15, i went to see Argentina vs Spain... and I tossed a pass to Fabricio Oberto when the ball went out of bounds because i was on the first row...
I was the happiest boy in the planet
