With the NBA season on the verge of death earlier this year, I wasn't following any of the players let alone their name changes.

I remember in one of his interviews he mentioned that he played in a 2 on 2 tournament when he was younger, he and his friend won a game which pissed off their opponents. I guess there was some smack talk and his friend was stabbed in the heart by a table leg which the other guy ripped off the referee table. Crazy stuff. Yeh, growing up in Queensbridge can't be easy for anyone. | ||

I still love his crazy antics though and will still be a fan. Go lakers!!! :D Yeh, calling him Metta will be awkward. I don't think I'll be able to refer to him by his new name when talking about him. It'll be hard to get used to calling him by his new name. | ||
