This kid is one hel of a basketball player. I question whether he gives a s*** about his HS team knowing he will be making millions soon. He had to have known and been instructed I hope, not to except anything after just going through the fiasco w/ his HumVee. Stupid decision (or not caring on his part) jeapordizes his teams chance at a championship. I guess he probably has turned into nothing more than another selfish millionarre athelete that we all hoped wouldn't happen but knew would...

I like his comment about his grade point average..."Just remember, I have a 3.5 gpa"...for crying out loud, I pulled a 3.9 and it was all in the midst of a deep haze... like that matters in light of what he's just done to his teammates...jerk...

My thought when I read the article in the Oregonian was, "Two jerseys worth $845? This guy isn't too bright!!" At least if he was going to sell his soul, he shoulda got more than two jerseys, no matter how snazzy!!
