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.

i met a couple. most recently was jalen rose. he was pretty cool. the worst experience i ever had meeting a athlete or celeb was when i met toni kukoc. that asshole got me kicked out of the mall cause i asked for an autograph.

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.

Rafer Alston back in 2002.

Bruce Bowen-doing a question/answer type thing at a mall. i asked him a question, but i cant remember what it was. Rasho nesterovic was at a Best Buy once buying stuff... he kinda looked wierd wearing a baby blue velvet type jumpsuit. i shook his hand (which was of course-huge).

I met Dexter Lions of Den Bosch he is a american player playing in Holland. for the rest I have not met any NBA Players:(

Sat Jul 16, 2005 4:07 pm

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...

Yao Ming at a gas station :P .

There's a whole thread about it somewhere.

Sat Jul 16, 2005 4:33 pm

Yeah he didnt sign you an autograph :lol:

Sat Jul 16, 2005 5:23 pm

Beno Udrih at a basketball camp four years ago.

Sat Jul 16, 2005 5:52 pm

Luc Longley :lol:

Edit: Also, Chris Anstey told my mum she looked like Goldie Hawn... I've met Shane Heal/Andrew Gaze.. yes they are former NBA players :lol:... real NBA players I've met, Vince Carter and Kevin Garnett at Darling Harbour during the Olympics.

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 :|

Sun Jul 17, 2005 2:50 am

I was almost gonna meet Dwight Howard and Luke Walton when they came here for the NBA Madness Tour here...but I had to go home for vacation... :(

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 :|
