    Starting in about 4 minutes on ESPN. This is basically about Sebastian Telfair's life, growing up in the projects, having stellar seasons at his high school, and all that. I'm about to go upstairs and watch it. By the way, its on ESPN.

    Pretty good so far, its at the point of Sebastian's life whether he really wants to go to Louisville for college or NBA. His 1st decision was Louisville, but now people are telling him that he's good enough to go pro. Ima stay tuned.

    I don't get ESPN or else I would watch this. I relly like NBA Biographies. I have probably seen every episode on Beyond The Glory atleast 3 times.

    As long as there's no mention of Stephon or their family then maybe I'll watch it.

    I watched the last hour of it I was very interested. It seems to me Telafair is a very hard worker who really wants to be a superstar type player.His brother is a good role model for him he puts him in his place.did anybody see how hard Telfair was crying after he got drafted? He couldn't even talk.

    Just finished watching it. Found it entertaining. But the man should have went to college. Shows you how much the media can influence you the wrong way. If that guy went to a stable college for a year or two he could be flourishing as a rookie right now

    Did anyone see that quote on that newspaper they showed, that said.."Sebastian Telfair couldnt even make it in the NBDL"..?If I saw that I might just want to go to the NBA just to prove them wrong..

    ^I agree.It said "Ready for the NBA? this kid isnt ready for the NBDL"That has to be a motivation to get better.

    In hs I heard that he was just driving to the hole like crazy and running all over people and in the NYC playgrounds. He also had some very good court awareness and nice passing skills. He still really has to work on his jumper though if he wants to be a good pg in the L.
