March 18th...A star was born

Major Moves: The kid did motion capture for NBA 2K11
In early March the good folks from 2k sports gave me a great opportunity in actually using my moves, movements, and dunks to be installed in the upcoming installment of the NBA 2k series...They knew everything about me prior to me coming and showed me alot of love! What i did was called motion-capture in which I put on a motion capture suit with all these shiny sensors. Even the shoes had sensors...The shoot consisted of two 8-hour days of mo-cap.It was kinda crazy because it was initially supposed to be 3 of us and we'd be taking turns and alternating. The idea was to simulate real NBA activity...Well, when I got down there they had told me one guy cancelled at the last minute, So it was 2 of us. Then within the first 10 mins of the 8 hour shoot, the other guy rolled his ankle. He was done for the rest of the shoot! So that means i had to do 8 hours of motion capture by myself. Not as easy as it sounds but ima get alot of air-time on the game. If yall know how I play yall wil recognize it on the game..NBA 2k11 which will be released this fall is supposed to be "the best basketball video game ever made". Glad I could help a bit :)

TP in Japan...
After a stint with the Tulsa 66ers I took my game to the prestigious Hamamatsu Phoenix of the Japanese league. I did very well and was a starter which was a big deal since we had 6 americans and the #1 team in Japan...The Japanese culture was very diff from America. I had a great time there but my season came to an abrupt hault on Jan 14th 2010 when I fractured and cracked my wrist... OUCH #Roadtorecovery Ive been exposed to nothing but basketball since the injury, since i cant play yet just been a student of the game. Anythang is plenty mane
As we proceed!!!
