Mike James and Malik Allen when they were still on the Heat at some basketball camp, but I've also gotten several different Heat players autographs from past seasons.
Speaking of basketball camps, I met this former NBA player at this summer basketball camp last summer, I don't remember his name though. He came often to teach us.
I have shaked hands with and talked to Rick Mahorn in a backstage locker room at a Pistons, Raptors game last year.I have met George Blaha a Pistons television and radio announcer.I have given high fives to Lindsay Hunter, Corliss Williamson, Rasheed Wallace and Rip Hamilton at that same game.Before a preseason game in my hometown Grand Rapids I had some pregame dinner thing and Ben and Sheed sat at the table behind me.
M.L. CarrAntoine Walkerunfortunately Rick Pitino randomly at a BC game one yearRobert ParishJo-Jo White
Ive also met Rob Babcock Met him at a Raptors game last year. Didn't want to shake hands with him though
Kyle Korver at a local mall. He's a really nice dude. Total Class Act. I'd like to say I met more, but I havn't
The following guys here I met and have autographs from. I get all of these at the NJ Nets games I go to on a frequent basis. It's tough getting down to the floor to get autographs, so I haven't really gotten many til this past year, hence there being only a few teams who I have autographs from so far. I'm probably missing a few, but these are the ones that I do have that I can see around my room:From the PacersJermaine O'NealRick CarlisleDavid HarrisonFrom the GrizzliesPau GasolChucky AtkinsBobby JacksonAnthony RobertsonDahntay JonesJake TsakalidisFrom the BlazersSebastian TelfairTravis OutlawFrom the NuggetsVoshon Lenard (now hes a Blazer)From the Nets:Jacque VaughnJason CollinsAaron Williams (when he was a Net)Kerry Kittles (same)Lucious Harris (same)Rodney Rogers (same)Nenad KrsticJeff McInnisAntoine WrightThese are guys I have met at games, whether it be at a Nets game, Knicks game or another one I went to elsewhere. Didn't get these guys autographs cause they were either just not signing for everyone or they were just sitting down near us and just chatted with us all:Jason KiddRichard JeffersonVince CarterZoran Plannic (he was an idiot, thought we were gonna sell his autograph after we got it so he wouldn't sign...)Cliff Robinson (he is the man)Mark Jackson (former NBA PG, now the Nets color commentator on YES network)Jamal CrawfordTrevor Ariza (when he was a Knick)Shane BattierBrian CardinalEddie JonesJamal TinsleySteve BlakeI know I'm missing quite a few from both lists...I'll have to go find the stuff to see who else I have cause I have a good amount put away so it would be found and taken.
you guys are lucky. what i would give to meet an nba player..i'd totally just bow down and kiss their feet and act as crazy as i can. i'd run around and <Censored>. that's so awesome. you guys are lucky. do you realize who they are?! THEY'RE SOME OF THE BEST BASKETBALL PLAYERS IN THE WORLD! ahhhhhhhh. awesome. they're gods.

They're out there doing just shoot arounds, so when they go back to the locker room to prepare for the game, they stop and sign for everyone. The ushers at Continental Arena are tough, you have to have a lower level ticket to get anywhere near the benches. Even then there are times when they won't let you down there, so you have to pick the right moment and sneak by.
haha imagine how it is at the palace of auburn hills? They wont even let u get near the court unless u gotta ticket.
