Didn’t really have anything in particular to talk about in this entry. I’ll just share a few thoughts. Nothing right or wrong—just kind of what I’m feeling at the moment. I got a lot of great comments in my last post. Everybody’s feedback is greatly appreciated—even those from [...]

Playing in the D-League isn’t as bad as it’s sometimes made out to be, but every once in a while, you’ll experience certain events that just…we’ll just call them “moments.” They don’t happen often, but every once in a while, something will occur, or you’ll see something in [...]

‘My Shuffling’
This is my first blog of ‘08, so I’ll start off by wishing everybody a happy new year. Personally, last year was a good one — I graduated from college, got drafted into the NBA, left Houston and moved out to Salt Lake City. Now that I think about it, ‘07 will be tough [...]
