Iโm so happy I got to meet him at MGM while working during Meloโs Basketball ๐ HOF enshrinement weekend. I asked for a pic with him and he said sure but got sidetracked by other players. Hours later when he came back to the MGM casino, he saw me and called me over n we took a pic together! AI is a very humble guy! Iโll never forget that day! Thanks A.I.!!!! Much respect ๐ซก๐

I still think the 76ers did him wrong by making his statue child sized. He deserves a full sized one at least as big as DWadeโs even though he didnโt bring the chip home

Al, sobriety is about repetition and discipline. It takes a lot of practice. 6 months is a start, like junior high basketball.

He sounds so much clearer in terms of thought. Salute on the 6 months of sobriety. I know it wasn’t easy! ๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝ
Michael Jordan is the ๐ but AI was always my favorite player growing up! The fans will never forget those years!
