    "The Seattle SuperSonics have decided not to invite
    Joseph Forte to their training camp, despite his $1.1 million guaranteed
    salary that they are required to pay."

    interesting. he seems like a player full of potential. it must be his personality that the sonics dont like.

    I would have thought they would have at least been brought to training camp since they will have to pay him anyway. I dont see the point of the SuperSonics doing this as he might have been able to earn his spot back.

    Forte has off the court problems. He does drugs and has a general bad attitude. There are many stories about him that my friend who recently graduated from North Carolina told me that aren't good.

    man forte has tons of talent but it shows you that too much money too soon is a bad combo.

    No surprise here. Forte has tons of talent and potential, but won't work hard and would rather do drugs.

    Too bad a UNC alumni has this many problems with all his potential! I wish he would realize whar he has and start playing for real!
