At Arizona, Walton was the consummate college ballplayer. He was smart, physical, versatile and the quintessential teammate. The knock on him was that he was not quick.

The NFL Draft will take place this afternoon, and it seems like every year a player's stock falls because of concerns about his character. NFL teams spend millions of dollars scouting and evaluating college players. Teams grade players on many aspects. Size, speed, smarts and character are the main components taken into consideration. Take the New England Patriots -- who have won three of the last five Super Bowls. The Pats find selfless players who are solid citizens and they win championships. They prove year after year that you don't necessarily have to have the most talent or the most superstars. You need to treat football like it's a team sport. Football may exemplify teamwork more than any other sport. A star running back or quarterback are worthless without an offensive line blocking. A beautiful 50-yard spiraling pass is wasted if there's not a competent receiver on the other end to snare it. You find players who are willing to put the team goals ahead of personal achievements by drafting players with character. This draft's poster child for poor character may be Marcus Vick, the younger brother of star quarterback Michael Vick. Marcus Vick has talent. He's fast, and he has a strong arm. He also has a rap sheet almost as long as the hair protruding from Willie's ear. Who wants either of those? When was the last time you heard anybody say a bad word about Teddy Bruschi, Troy Polamalu or Marcus Stroud? The last time I checked, those guys make a habit of spending a week in the off-season in Hawaii (at the Pro Bowl) not jail. If you want to build a winner, start with guys that act like winners.

    NBA ANNOUNCES AFFILIATIONS WITH NBA DEVELOPMENT LEAGUE FOR 2010-11 SEASON - Dallas Mavericks Begin Affiliation with Frisco-Based Texas Legends - NEW YORK , July 6, 2010 – The National Basketball Association and the NBA Development League, the official minor league of the NBA, today announced the affiliation system for the 2010-11 season, including first-time affiliations between the Dallas Mavericks and the Frisco-based Texas Legends, new to the NBA D-League for the 2010-11 season; the Los Angeles Lakers and the Bakersfield Jam; the Golden State Warriors and the Reno Bighorns; and the Orlando Magic and the New Mexico Thunderbirds. For the sixth consecutive year, each NBA team has one NBA D-League affiliate to which it may assign players in their first or second NBA season. “The direct affiliation between NBA and NBA D-League teams continues to benefit players, coaches, and basketball fans," said Dan Reed, NBA D-League President. "Nearly one-third of all NBA Draft picks have played for their NBA D-League affiliate since the program's inception, and these affiliate relationships are a key reason why 20 percent of all NBA players have NBA D-League playing experience." Entering the sixth year of direct affiliations between NBA and NBA D-League, a number of teams continue to build on strong affiliation relationships developed over past seasons. The Washington Wizards begin their fifth year as the parent club of the Dakota Wizards (Bismarck, N.D.), while the Minnesota Timberwolves and Sioux Falls Skyforce (S.D.) have also been affiliated since the 2006-07 season.
