    I’m not going to go out of my way to promote his site…. I’m not trying to be cruel, but I was wondering if I was the only person that he annoyed. Maybe nobody else has heard of him (it might be best).

    Do find him to be slightly biased and possibly a tad arrogant. He has interesting insights some of the time, but I find that he picks favorites and they are not at all always the right or even close to right choice. I find that he tends to love Orlando, and anything that has to do with IMG, who the site seems to be partnered with. I do not have a problem with them, indeed they are most likely fantastic at what they do, but Steve makes it seem like they are the end all be all of the basketball training world and talent evaluation, but their are a variety of other sources as well obviously. So, that tends to get old quite fast. One of the reasons I definitely visit their site much less than many other basketball sources.

    Yea…It’s the arrogance that I find annoying. He also seems to talk in a condescending manner to people that take time out the day to pay attention to him.

    Well,I think you are talking about the same site who have Bill Ingram ,right?( I don’t want to be talking about someone else and you don’t seem interested to tell the site name)
    if it is him then actually I do really like the guy ,but some other writer at this site should have never got their job from the first place

    I guess I just read a few things that didn’t sit well with me. He did not seem like a nice or appreciative fella to his audience. His content didn’t strike me overly inciteful and/or sincere in many cases….. I thought his photo looked kind of smug also. There’s a very good chance that it’s just me with the problem.

    I hear you… but these guys clearly on different levels and have nothing else in common other than they can both be annoying.
