Live and let live, be happy for someone if they are fulfilling a dream... Hodgy, if there's a court, play... these guys that hate will hate no matter what you do... If you played for USA in the Olympics, they'd say something negative about that as well... my only advice though, and i understand i'm no insider, but from my perspective, don't wait around for the league to pick you up, make your money overseas and live a richer life when you're done... Euro girls, can't beat them either...

I think you can help the team out a lot with your versatility while also adding some always needed depth to the roster. All you need is an opportunity to show you can play. Anyway, I just wanted to say goodluck on making the team and I hope to see you out there in a nets uniform next season. adios- Yo julius I’m a big nets fan myself and it would really be great if you made the team.

You gave him an autograph on a piece of paper and he has that along with your picuture and cards in his room. He stills wears his # 24 NC State jersey at any pick up games. We are hoping to see you in the NBA playing with the energy and passion we seen at NC State. We know you have the talent just keep going you will make it. Hello Julius,

Are you a citizen of the US Virgin Islands? I was reading from a website and it caught my attention that you mentioned of this statement: "I would love to play at the Olympic Games one day. If not with the United States, I would be open to playing for another country, just like Chris Kaman did." By mentioning that statement, I just had that idea of why not joining the US Virgin Islands team (along with Raja Bell, Frank Elegar, Carl Krauser, and others)? After all, with you in the line-up, it will add depth and a possible primary scorer on the roster. Just a thought. :) Hi Julius! Are you a citizen of the US Virgin Islands?

If I was an NBA GM I would definitley find a spot for you on my roster for at least one season after watching you play for the Adelaide 36ers in the Australian league last season. Im not even saying the NBL is a good league or a bad league, what Im saying is watching you play basketball, your individual performances suggest that you should be in the NBA. If you believe in history repeating itself, then there is even precident for you getting a gig in the League, as Rick Brunson played for Adelaide 36ers for a year back in the 1990s, then returned to America where he went on to bigger and better things in the NBA. As and Adelaide fan I'm not pissed that you are not coming back. I will be hoping i will be able to follow your progress with the nets this coming season, and maybe even see a few games on cable down here. Good luck mate, i know you will be back scoring buckets in the NBA sooner rather than later!
