Re: Im going to play basketball with Brook Lopez on Saturday!
first off, i got their and there were lots of people ready and i was pumped... when he first got their we just sat down and talked with him asked any questions, he seemed pretty shy when talking in front of everyone but he was pretty cool. we got to play 5 on 5 games, shoot around with him and just hang for the few hours... it wasnt like the jason collins camp which was a week, this was only about 3 hours, so i didnt get to talk to brook alot. everything about players in the nba he would say tim duncan- his favorite player is duncan he says duncan is the best in the nba and he thinks duncan better than kobe and lebron, he says duncan is the hardest for him to defend in the nba and a few others. he said hes better than robin and always will be dont question it. he doesnt like the nickname b-lo but he doesnt mind thriller which i havent heard yet. he was really excited that vince didnt get traded, hes one of his favorite teammates obviously. he told us a few things that only he and the nets know and some people that are close to him, i cant say it cuz they told us not too lol, one of the small things was that he will not be playing in the summer league this year because the nets are happy with how he is doing in the league, he will be touring with adidas because he just got a endorsment with them. when his two year contract is up he has an option to stay for a 3rd or 4th year, he wants to make it the 3rd year, then get a new contract so he should stay with nets a while... there was one lady who was so stupid, she would sneak around the place to get to brook and wouldnt stop talking to him and saying how good he is and all this crap, she probably wanted money or some fame, it was pathetic the people kept telling her to go sit down. it was pretty cool how when i was behind him in line i realized when looking at him, wow this guy has guarded tim duncan, yao ming, dirk all in the past week, he played with vince and devin last night, and now im standing right next to him and talkin. i was so nervous too... if i forgot anything ill post it when i remember

lol My friends always make fun of his voice. It reminds me a lot of Jason Collin's voice.
But if your getting paid to play basketball, it doesnt matter how your voice sounds.

yea when i talked to brook, hes got a really deep voice it kinda sounds weird and seems like hes talking like that on purpose... he doesnt really sound like collins imo, i met both, they do both have deep voices but collins sounded jamaican everytime i talked to him lol
