    Re: Through the fire...

    You can't call a guy a bust after a year and a half. I give him at least two more years, kid got potential.

        I think he'll end up being a player similar to TJ Ford.


        People are definately way too hard on the kid, he's only 20. Don't forget about Jermaine O'Neal's career path.

            And they act like it's his fault that he got drafted high. It's hilarious that people are ready to call him a bust so soon, especially when he's young and has still started for the blazers.

            If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                        I bought the book last year and it is a good read as well. Goes into a lot more detail as to what happened with his cousin Stephon Marbury and some of the jealousy going on between Steph and Telfair

                            I don't know many people that would turn down a 6-10 million shoe deal and a 13th overall pick in the NBA versus going to college. I sure as hell would of done the same thing. As long as he is managing his money, he is set for life. I hope he isn't blowing it all.............Seems like a good kid too. It's easy to say he should of gone to college when you aren't living in the situation he was.

                                        Anyone get/planning on getting the DVD?

                                        I'd love to know how the extras are before I buy it.

                                            I might pick it up at Wal-Mart if they have it today. I'd stop at Best Buy and get it but I don't really feeling like being out that long today.

                                            I'll be sure to let you know abot the extras if I pick it up.
