It was so great when he said that sometimes ladder games can be quite a bit more stressful than playing his basketball games. Was so great. Haha

I was hoping it would get saved but he has never streamed before so if it's something you have to set up manually, it probably didn't get VOD'd.

i loved watching him play at Butler, love watching him play in NBA

edit: he knows about MLG and GS fucking L. AND he uses Firefox on a Mac. Guys just gets more baller by the minute
That's some advanced sc2 ingame behavior rules he follows :O I like.

rofl, way too funny to hear the comentator haHAhahaha

If he got good enough at SC2 do you think he would give up that Phat NBA money to go e-sports pro? lol
|
never was a fan of him when he played for Baylor, but this is pretty sick. Kind of like Gilbert Arenas and Halo 2. Except Gilbert Arenas owned a team, but still.

FUCK NO. lol. He's a rookie so he doesn't make "that much" compared to other NBA players but he still makes more than an SC2 player would if they won every single tourny

Correction: He makes more in a year than you would winning every single tourney.

Play basketball all day, starcraft by night, and make millions? Living the life.

This is beside the point. I'm sure he loves playing basketball just as much/if not more than SC2, or else he wouldn't be where he is today.
Hopefully though we can make #improveeveryday into a thing around these parts

it's cool to see people who are famous involved in e-sports some way :D yay, we wont be nerds for much longer!

Awesome to know Stuart Holden was a competitive CS player back in the day too, been enjoying his work for Bolton this year, shame about the injury
