Yeah, he was on the US National Team during the world cup, not a starter or anything but he's an okay player, its too bad he won't even mention his CS days anymore..

If he got good enough at SC2 do you think he would give up that Phat NBA money to go e-sports pro? lol


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.


He was drafted in the first round so he gets guaranteed money, and as a top 10 pick, his slot would pay him like 2.5m a year his first two years, then 3 mil a year for the next two on team option, and 4.5-5 mil on the 5th year under qualifying offer.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuart_Holden

"Holden has admitted that he is slightly embarrassed by his gaming career, stating "When I first started playing football professionally it all started to come out and I was a bit ashamed of it. I tried to hide it but eventually I've just started to embrace it. There's nothing I can do. I've deleted it off my Wikipedia page about four or five times and someone just keeps putting it back up there!""

That was from an article from April 2011 so up until recently he certainly was embarrassed by it. Safe bet is that he is probably still at least somewhat ashamed or embarrassed about it.

There's a difference between being a pro gamer like Holden and playing a video game casually with friends (I think about every adult male probably does that from time to time)

Holden was hardly a pro-gamer in 1.6, he played in invite and attended a few LANs, but he was hardly paid to play.

He may be ashamed of his gaming career, but I don't think he's ashamed of going to that university.

Ah, I never knew that about Holden. Shame he feels that way. Still, best of luck to him with Bolton.

Anyways, Hotbid or Kennigit, did you guys help Hayward with justin.tv or something? Will he be streaming there tonight?

He said he was busy tonight, but would try to stream tomorrow. I believe Gunrun offered to help set him up (and people have been tweeting @ him to talk to Gunrun as well), so I'm sure it'll all work out.

For a little context on Holden, he has always said that in live interviews in a funny way, I don't think he is legitimately embarrassed, most of the time he follows it with bragging about how much he would win.

He still games quite a bit according to his twitter anyway.

So which sport does his play? Wikipedia says that the plays football (soccer) in Premier League, but some people in this thread talks about NBA which I think is basketball?

This thread is about Gordon Hayward, the basketball player who just started streaming his SC2 games.

The soccer player is off topic but used to be a competitive CS player before playing soccer professionally.

Gaming for athletes isn't as uncommon as you'd think. When you're in random cities all the time with a relatively large amount of down time, a gaming console makes a great companion. And since you're roomed with teammates that are extremely competitive people, gaming happens.

I agree, but in SC2 he seems to fit the definition.
