Interesting story about rookie life in the NBA

[ChuckElias]

I found an article in the Washington Post's website about Kwame Brown's rookie season. I'm not a Kwame Brown fan, not even a Wizard's fan. But the story was very very interesting. I don't often think about what a 19-year-old boy knows about shopping, and clothes, and paying bills, etc.

I also was never a very big fan of Doug Collins, but the story shows some real depth to him in dealing with his players which never comes out on TV or in most magazine articles. The story about Brown's "practice from hell" is terrific.

Just thought I'd throw it out there. If you're interested, you can find it at:

Boy, if that's not an endorsement for going to college, nothing is.
