So who is the guy that he goes to see in Greece? I'm assuming it's a friend of his that is older but I could be wrong.

Jamell Thomas is Bassy's older brother

kind of odd that he wasn't invited to the live draft. Then again with as much as his stock fell before the draft I can see why they didnt.

he was honestly the poster child for the 04 draft to me... he made Slam Magazine at the 8th grade level as the next big thing... then he wins 3 state titles in NY.... not bad

really enjoyable to me.

It was very interesting to see him go from extremely humble to almost overly cocky to right back at square one when the dream actually true. And where was he when he got drafted?

He was at Jay Z's 40/40 Club in Brooklyn. Seeing him cry made him human again.

He still needs to put on some weight. If he could learn to play at 180 lbs instead of 160-165 lbs it would allow him to take his game to the next level with his ability to drive to the basket.

Yeah, he got there afterwards. But why wasn't he there at the time of the draft? It was odd to not be at his party, IMO.

However, I do agree. The cry put it all in perspective.

Portlands system isnt helping him out that much this year. I think he will be better off going to another team. The game footage of Lincoln vs Edgewood shows how good these guys actually are. Not only him but also Darius Washington Jr. The point guard for Memphis. I wish he would of went to Lousiville for a few years.
