I haven't met any NBA players (at least not anyone I can remember, maybe a backup), but I have met some other people. I was on the same flight as Bill Walton one time, and I met Will Sheridan from Villanova today at a basketball camp.

That's pretty classless (his actions, not yours). While it must be frustrating for people in the public eye, the very least they can do for a polite autograph request is politely decline.

Well does anybody remember Martin Müürsepp aka The Spider? He's an Estonian just like me.
He played in the NBA in the mid-ninetys, was a pretty decent player aswell. I've met him once or twice.
Over the years he has been involved in many youth-programs promoting basketball and sports.

I've also watched Sergei Monia in practise, but he hasn't gone to the States yet. I wonder if he ever will...

Preparation will only take you so far. After that you've got to take a few leaps of faith.

I could've met John Stockton at a summer basketball camp, but of course, the camp was so freaking expensive. Makes me wonder if it would've been worth it, since he was giving out autographs too :|

Wow, you have actually TALKED to people NOT on a Pacers' roster... I'm amazed.


I once met Toronto's cheerleading team, but I won't go into further details. True. :wink:

lol, it all started when some random guy made a spam post about Jerome James' schlong before he got banned, and I cracked jokes with Legend's team, Seattle, while we were playing NBA Live, and I guess that stuck with him.

Don't know where Oliver Miller came from though :|
