Thinking back on my childhood, the one thing I really, really, really wanted on my birthday was for someone to remember it. But after that, easily the No. 2 option was having a famous athlete swing by my party and act like he was thrilled to be dealing with tons of children on a random Wednesday in the middle of the season.



Fortunately, for some child who has insanely rich parents, that dream will possibly come true one day, in the form of a barely recognizable by most kids famous member of the New Jersey Nets.
