Moon on Grill Room (SunTV) 

Post#1 » by doutz » Fri Jan 25, 2008 4:05 am

- Said he was happy that he went through the minor leagues because it made him a better man.
- said the only place he regretted playing was in Russia (wasn't there long) and knew he had to leave. Was worried about his own safety and security.
- enjoyed time with Globetrotters but needed to play organized basketball
- aspired to be a better player and make NBA so his minor league coach told him to focus on one thing other guys dont like to do and be great at it (Defense).
- Ast coach for Raps (Kelley?) saw him in Indiana - had a few double doubles and got invited to mini-camp
- before came in thought if he does what he does he could make it
- REALGM SHOUT OUT by Gareth
- Felt he had a better camp at Milwaukee before Toronto but they didnt take him
- Similar road to NBA as Sam Mitchell (started in league at 26)
- Glad that Mitchell rides him because shows he cares and understands the road he has taken
- Looks at Sam as a role model - almost walking in the same footsteps as him
- Team has to hold it down until TJ gets back - only gonna make them better
- wears 33 because of Pippen - tried to pattern game after him
- In NYC vs Knicks at shootaround and BC came up to him and said that Stu Jackson wanted to talk to him - BC called Stu and gave phone to Moon and Stu told him he wanted him to compete in the dunk contest
- Said yes right away
- Has a couple of dunks up his sleeve - has to keep it secret
- Coach Triano and Dixon gave him ideas for dunks
- Thought Dwight should've won last year
- Nobody scares him in the contest - everyone has to bring it
- Gareth said that Barkley didn't pick him to win
- Moon jokingly looks into the camera and gives Charles the gears saying he should be on his side being from the south!
- Gareth asks for behind the scenes take on Raps
- Jokingly says Bosh is gonna be an actor, that helikes to laugh, and acts crazy - real nice guy
- plays PS3 playing Strangle Hold?
- Sam is the best dressed guy on the whole team
- worst dressed is K-Hump - dresses in ugly button ups...haha
- AP does best Sam impersonation
- Has never tried an AlabamaSlammer
- Gareth puts a joke in there for the puckheads and asks if Cliff was right guy for Leafs

Great interview.

I don't quite get this, does it mean Sam favours AP the most?
