I saw him in very-late-August at Lucky Strikes last year.

Didn’t go to school in Chicago. Not drafted there. Is he from there?

Nothing to do with Chicago

NBA Nation is a customized 18-wheel truck that expands into a 20,000-square-foot basketball playground for fans of all ages to participate in a variety of activities. There will be competitions, basketball games, contests, prizes and special guest appearances.

It’s just a promotional gig, which would explain Dawkins and Igoudala as well.

The Chicago Bulls.....the more profitable Los Angeles Clippers.

Ya know what, I remember he worked-out here in Chicago last off-season with Wade...

I think Chicago is becoming a hot destination for off-season work-outs bc of that new gym they all work-out at. Of course, for everyone but Derrick, who goes to LA to work-out in a gym that resembles my grade school court.

its the taste of chicago

what better names for the event than OJ and Mayo?

Asked what kind of player he expects to be in the next five years, he said: "Not a star, but like, a superstar. Something around, like, Chris Paul, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, something like that."
