    Or, maybe he works as hard as he possibly can, and just isn't going to be a great NBA basketball player regardless? I could have practiced, slept, and trained 24/7 with John Wooden and Phil Jackson coaching me and the best trainers training me, and never come close to making the NBA, let alone a D-I college basketball team. I was the point guard for a school with 2400 students as a senior, too. Have you ever competed with elite basketball players? It's humbling when you're 19 and think you're hot shit. I can imagine what it's like at 22 and having a bunch of "fans" bashing my every move.

    I used to play rat ball against Terrell Brandon all the time down at U of O. It was amazing how much better he was. I used to always get matched up against him because I could barely.... maybe sometimes... keep up with him.

    He goes to Coach Grgurich's camp. I think this will be his 3rd year and is the best player camp around. If you're thinking of Pete Newell's Big Man Camp that ended in 2008 when he died.

    He just needs some on court awareness.

    He just needs to get punched in the Nards and quit basketball and give up on life.

    You should tell that to his coach, the guy who keeps him on the bench.

    wow, that post makes you sound like a fucking asshole or a Lakers fan. But I'm sure you're not either of those, and you just chose your words poorly.
