Alando is a class act, for sure

I had the opportunity to meet him twice last year (once got to talk to him and LB for a while last year prior to the season) and he always struck me as level-headed, insightful, and funny. I wish that he got more playing time but, of course, I understand why.

Regardless, he’s a class-act, and I wish nothing but the best for him. He’s definitely one of the ‘good guys’ that you just have to root for. He’s survived so much in life that i couldn’t even begin to really understand, and you really want things to go well for him.

I wish to see him play productive minutes in a Suns uniform, but would be much happier to see him in a position where he has the opportunity to flourish….

Good read and thanks for the link….

Wow.

Alando seems like an awesome dude.

Steve Nash, the league's MVP, is a longhaired Canadian who spoke out against the war in Iraq and reads The Communist Manifesto. Quentin Richardson declared after a game-winning shot that it "was like Hamlet. It was a suspense thriller, and I killed them at the end." Amare Stoudemire, when asked to comment on a 22-point third quarter against the Kings, said, "I've got a tendency to jump over some guys' heads and throw it down."

It seems like

If Alando just put some arch on the ball everything in his world would be so much better. He comes in during garbage time and his shot is sooooo flat and usually short. Is it nerves? Put some arch on the ball man!
