I have talked to Brandon Lloyd lol. He was actually going out with one of my moms friend's daughter. He and I with my other cousins watched the old batman series in a hotel where we were at lol. He loves Batman. Unfortuanetly he is no longer dating the same girl ever since he went on to the NFL!
I talked to and played basketball against Shawn Marion. I also talked to Kevin Johnson when I was younger because my grandma knew him.

If I met Doc Rivers I have no idea what I would say, but all I know is he would probably jack me the F*ck up after
I've met Sebastian Telfair, Tony Allen, Kendrick Perkins, I was supposed to meet Delonte but I just missed him, and I've seen Pierce out in Boston but he's got 4 bodyguards so he's tough to get close to. The guy I was with talked to him because Paul knows him, but he wasn't signing and he just left.
They go downtown after the game, I know a guy who knows them so he just asks them where they're going and we just head down there after, they were at PF Chang's last time I went.
That reminds me one time I met Tommy while me and my friend were eating at Fours after the game. Me and my friend were already there eating and he walks in with some redhead and saw us with our jerseys on and asked if we were at the game. We chatted with him for a few and unfortunately we had to go catch the train but he was a pretty cool dude. BTW: I still haven't picked up on this, but who the F*ck is the redhead from Needham.
I've passed Pudge Rodriguez outside The Ballpark in Arlington (aka Amerisuck Field), saw Deion Sanders at Sbarro's in Dallas... can't think of any others, but I feel like there are some others.Other than thatDIRKf*ckingNOWITZKI(we took an awkward picture)end topic<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (ElMaster @ Dec 28 2006, 02:00 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>The only celebrity I've talked to is a skateboarder named Rodney Mullen.

Sebastian Telfair was at my game in Brooklyn. He didn't get to watch that much because of being surrounded by people and signing autographs. This happened 2005 summer. He said, " Hey, you had really good game". Then gave my a high 5. Not really a conversation though haha. After that I got an autograph.

I love those pictures of Dirk and Nash, I was particularly hating the Mavs when I first saw them for knocking someone out of the playoffs, so they were entertaining. On a side note, that guy does look like a complete dumbass redneck, so I'd definitely go with the thankfully there.
