Message: [QUOTE="MonsterGame, post: 1368382, member: 1256"] I agree with these perceptions/projections as to a player's NBA potential. Kwame Brown had everything going for him coming out of HS. If he had turned out to be a stud NBA player and not a chump, he'd have made far more than 63 million during his career. It wouldn't surprise me at all if Fab Melo's circumstance growing up could be swaped with Kwame Brown's, then Fab's career would have been the same as Kwame's. Kwame grew up with basketball in the U.S., Fab didn't start playing until high school I believe. It's possible, had the two players life circumstances been switched, Fab would have made the $63 million and Kwame would be SU's famous Fab. Some may think this is a huge stretch, but from a physical and mental point of view, the two aren't that far apart. [/QUOTE]
