  1. Hey Grant!

    I was just wondering, I grew up watching you as a kid, and we even met once briefly in Centennial Park in Atlanta, GA back in 1996; Though I love watching you play now with the Suns,( NBADirecTV !)but I’ve always thought why don’t you post some old videos of your top 10 or 15 highlights from each level of ball you played ( college, rookie year, soph. etc) You’d be surprise at how many other fans of yours I’ve talked to who would really love to see the highlights through the years , your battles with MJ in Detroit, the triple double to put up in L.A., th 46 pointer you put down on the Wizards…these videos are all on youtube, but I bet you could get somebody to fix ‘em up and put it on here. Anyway, it was just a thought. Good luck this season!

    GGGGRRRRRAAAAAAANNNNNNNTTTTTT HHHIIIIIIILLLLLLLL!!!!

    Hey Grant,

    Just finished watching you and the Suns drop 75 points in the 1st half against the Hornets. Way to go! Your offense is really rolling this year.

    Just wanted to comment on the almonds. Almonds are a great choice for a snack as they are a excellent source of omega fatty acids. I especially like the unsalted ones. A low salt diet will help maintain a healthy heart.

    Anyways, I thought that maybe next time you come to Wisconsin to play the Bucks we could get together for a quick lunch (maybe some almonds for desert). Anyways let me know.

  6. Hello Tamia & Grant,

    I give thanks to God for the models you have been for so many years. Praises to the wife first. Tamia you have been my favorite R&B artist since you hit the scene on Q’s Joint. I have every disc that you have recorded. Can’t wait ’til you come out with more. Continue to be the great wife and mother that God has called you to be. Grant you have been my favorite basketball player since you played at Duke. I still have your USA Olympic Jersey. We even share the same birthday different year. I don’t check the sites everyday but when I do it gives me a new outlook on what’s to come in God’s plan for my life and for my family. I pray for you all consistently, your marriage and your family. It’s the small things that you guys do & focus on that helps me; like your values and views on how important family is and your relationship with each other. Tamia “STILL” says it all. Keep up the good work and continue to “Let Your Light Shine Before Men That They Will See Your Good Works & Glorify Your Father In Heaven.

    God Bless,

    Rhonda
