Message: [QUOTE="OCESIP, post: 5663666, member: 8702"] I can't recall too many sons who have followed in the footsteps of their Hall of Fame father and got anywhere near that level of success. Most, at best, were probably average or above average at their craft. They had the advantage of being exposed to the best of the best, but also were probably brought up in a financially privileged homelife where athletic success was never an essential to their well being. Have no idea about Kiyan's mindset or his motivation, but from my perspective it almost seems like Melo has more of himself invested in Kiyan's success than his son does. People I know who have met him (briefly) say he is a nice kid and is comfortable to be around. That's not too shabby a label for a young kid in today's world. [/QUOTE]
