He's definitely a fighter. One of those I-want-to-punch-you-in-the-face-unless-you're-on-my-team kind of guys, but he may want to pump the brakes a bit.

C'mon guys, ball junkies find places to get some run in ! As long as he don't hurt himself I'm good.

ummm, why can't Matt play in a random summer league?
Did you guys bash Kobe for going to a pickup game at the Rucker? Should we bash LeBron for playing with a bunch of toddlers? It's all the same difference.
Most NBA players go to their hometowns every summer and hoop with whoever is around. I still see plenty of NBA and NFL guys that grew up in my area at the most random parks and gyms every offseason. Worry about Matt not injuring himself, not the obscurity of where he's playing.

overreact much?
A) nobody is bashing him
B) injury
is the concern, not the league he's in
