    OK, for those who are new here.
    This is an example of a letter carefully written by a basketball player who cares.
    LMAs letter was a good example of a form letter written by an agent in about 3-5 minutes.

    he was the one i was really pissed off for leaving. not pissed at him personally, but i was in a "god damnit" mood. he was my fav player for the blazers the past few years. he played with intensity and fire. i will miss him being on the blazers. he was awesome to watch.

    I'll be happy for Wes if he can play into his mid-30s.
