[QUOTE="HoopsCoach, post: 1232104, member: 342710"] I have a kid who reminds me of Leron when he plays (except not nearly as talented). What I mean is if I was on the other team or a fan of the other team, I would absolutely think he was a "thug" or a bad dude. But knowing him, he is one of the nicest kids I coach, he just has a little nasty in him on the basketball floor that I wish more of my kids had honestly. Leron messed up, he knows he did. But he is still a young man (I used to carry a knife myself without thought living in an area that wasn't the greatest) who made a bad decision and let's let him learn from it, instead of crucifying him for it. He is still one of my favorites, really pulling for him! [/QUOTE]
