LaMarcus answers questions from fans
Q: What teams do you think came out of the draft stronger? any teams surprise you? – Taylor, Hillsboro
============================
LA: It was an interesting couple of days, but I think the teams that pulled off the trades were the ones that got better. Shaq and Vince and RJ will help their teams immediately and make them better. There may be a couple of impact guys in this draft, but usually draft players take time to make a impact so the immediate impact you’ll see this year will be on the teams that made trades.
============================
Q: How old were u when u started playin? – Robby Dey, Canada/Vancouver
LA: I played since I was little. But my first time really playing was in 4th grade.
============================
Q: From a fellow Texan and Longhorn — What do you miss most about being in Austin? Did you have a favorite restaurant or place to hang out? — Laura, Corvallis, OR
LA: I miss being on the lake and just being in Austin. It’s a great place that I have a lot of memories of, and I enjoy coming back to. In terms of a favorite place to hang out, I liked the Hula Hut a lot.
============================
Q: What did you think of the draft trade with the Kings and Sergio Rodriguez? Was it a good move?
LA: I think it was a good move, and really the best move for Sergio. Sergio wanted to leave to play more, and Sacramento may be a good fit for him to get those minutes. You never like to see a teammate leave, but it’s probably better for his development and his career.
============================
Q: Do you have any pets? – Ross, Tucson
LA: I have a dog. A boxer
