This past week i was a traveling man, something i should get use to, I went to Las Vegas and Portland, Oregon. It was a good trip I had a lot of fun even though I didn't get a chance to ride New York New York in Vegas. In Vegas I was at the USA National Team Press conference. It was just Kevin Durant and I we were not there for very long but it was good. He and I are pretty cool even though I must say my suit looked GOOD!!!! There is no competition between me and him we just do what we do, which is breathe, eat, ball, go out, and sleep (in that order lol). I feel the comparisions between me and him are ridiculous we don't play the same position, we have two different styles and personalities, and grew up in two different places. I guess since we are looked at as the two best prospects in this years draft we will always be connected. Back to the press conference really it was nothing a couple of comments from Mr. Colangolo then Kevin and Myself which was 10 mins at most. Then we had individual interviews which are nothing but fun and i like to say the tv once no matter what i said it wouldn't matter cause that suit looked GOOD, as anyone can feel now i really liked that suit. After Vegas I went to Portland to meet with Nike. Nike is amazing I loved my trip, meeting with the people there who are very good people, made my week. The Campus was nice to, just kidding, it was so nice very big though. The second day I was there when i went through all the presentations was amazing i got chills watching the Lance Armstrong and Tiger Woods commercials they made my mom cry, which isn't hard cause she is very emotional, i will not be suprise if she cried if i was drafted first. Back to Nike, the things they did for me was like a college visit you see on tv, with all the picture of me over the campus. I saw a guy with a Ohio State shirt and I got hype I was like thats amazing someone who loves Ohio State then once i saw 30 more people with the same shirt I was like hold up not all these people like Ohio State, but its ok. Commenting on the city of Portland it is very beautiful especially when the sun is out, I heard it rains just a little bit there lol naw a lot but while i was there it didn't rain that much. The trees and mountains were very nice its a place that when I get older I would love to raise a family there. An my last spot about Portland Fred Jones is a real cool person.
