What did they look like?
I met Peja and Turkgolu together at a hotel in Turkey. They were there to play some Basketball charity event. Got a picture with both of them.
I also met Tracy Murray at LA Fitness and actually got to run a game with him.
Last but not least, I met Kobe in Newport Beach at the cupcake place called Sprinkles. I stood in front of him in line, but I didn't bother him as he was with his wife and his daughters. I waved at him before I left though and he told me "sup man". Wanted to talk to him, but didn't want to disturb him as he was playing with his daughters.

Met Jason Kidd a few times and sat next to his wife at a Suns game when I was younger. Odd, for a woman with so many problems, she was extremely nice and friendly at the game (and this was after the beating incident before he got traded).
I got the cold shoulder from Devean George at the South Bay Gelleria. He did that like he was too good for us. That mother er. It was his last season in LA.
I sat behind the Knicks bench at a Grizzlies game 2 seasons ago. I told Jamaal Crawford he sucks ass and he gave me a pretty weird look. I don't know if that counts.
I've met kobe.
I met Wayne Ellington...he had a huge diamond necklace that said waynes world lol
Too many to list...
Most the Lakers from 1975 till now.
The dream teams from 1992 and 1996.
The team from the FIBA qualifiers in Vegas in 2007.
And various others over the years.
i need to hang out with you.
I saw Elton Brand at Swingers in Santa Monica right before he singed with the Sixers. He was pretty cool, his wife was bangin.
Met Charles Barkley when I was in the sixth grade. He was signing autographs at the mall.
I was fortunate enough to meet Jerry and Jeanie Buss through a mutual friend and was allowed locker room access from time to time. More so in the Forum days than now. I was able to meet the dream teams at USA basketball activities. I played on USA wheelchair teams during those years. Small perks I guess for being able to shoot a ball.
jason terry at las vegas with a cast on his arm.
Met Pippen twice in Charlotte...once as a Bull in '96 and once as a Blazer in '99. Both times he was cool. The time in '99 he was extremely gracious. My mom actually brought a Scottie Pippen Houston Rockets t-shirt with her to the shoot-around and I was like there's no way in he's gonna sign that after the nasty break-up they had lol. He signed it anyway and didn't seem to mind. I ragged on him about not doing the pull-up three anymore since his Chicago days. He put one up in the game and missed but I thought it was cool that he tried it in the first place
sons I have met most of the Hornets over the years. Tyson Chandler was the coolest.
Avery Johnson went to my high school and he came over as a guest speaker once.
son did they use a couple of phone books for Avery to stand on so the kids could at least see him?
That musta been funny listenting to that voice give a speech.
Met Avery at a basketball camp, Tracy McGrady too
I just googled my High School and saw the wikipedia. Some broad who was on America's Next Top Model and WC went there. Bill Walsh did, too, but back when it was nothing but white people.
Sean Elliott when i was kid
also won a meet and greet with Sean Marks after a Spurs game a few years ago but me and my dad skipped lol
Unfortunately, no.
Avery did go off on some kid who was talking during his speech. After he was done, he asked us trivia questions about himself.
I played H-O-R-S-E with Tim Duncan the summer after his rookie season at the Concord Athletic Club in San Antonio when I was like 12. Highlight of my life so far.
Met Hakeem Olajuwan in an elevator at the Hotel Galvez in Galveston. Rockets were at a preseason training camp and we were at a sales meeting. He got on the elevator and we were like a couple of kids just looking at him and he finally broke the ice and said hi guys. So me and my friend just told him he was great and we admired his play on the court and all he was doing for our community. He flashed a big grin and said thanks.
Met Reggie Miller at a restaurant in Indy. Just said o briefly when he left. He was sitting in the corner by himself eating a falafel sandwich with his hat pulled down over his ears and head.
I Met Odom, he was cool,
