It was kind of meh. Didn't learn anything I didn't already know. Although for 15 minutes (if that), I guess you can't really expect too much. Would be cool to see a 'Beyond the Glory' on him, but I don't think they even still do them.

And what's with LeBron throwing stones from his glasshouse? I mean, Melo has had his problems, but Lebron has had his fair share too. From the drugs, to the street racing, to the stuff with his mom, to letting his toddler son walk around at his pool party with alcohol, drugs, and topless women. As well as the recent on the court stuff. Even in the 04 Olympics, he was in the same place as Melo, they just didn't publicize it as much in regards to him(as always). It may not be quite as bad on the whole, but he is far from a saint, like he seems to think. And as far as 'questionable character' goes, I don't think there are many douches bigger than him in this league. But I digress.

It's all about marketing. What has leaked and what hasn't. The good thing about it is the less pristine one probably has a dose or more of humility, which is very important.

And that's exactly the point.....there are much bigger douche nozzles in the league.

It's just plain simple to note the message, which is it doesn't matter where you come from, it matters where you are going...
