Why he might be annoying:

    He is arguably considered one of the biggest first overall draft busts in NBA history.
    He failed to live up to both his potential and his draft billing.
    Some basketball pundits use his draft selection as an example of cheapness shown by Clippers owner Donald Sterling.
    The team passed on future stars like Paul Pierce and Mike Bibby just to take him.
    He is extremely injury prone.

    He began playing basketball at the age of 17.
    He was raised in England and developed an interest in basketball when he moved to the United States.
    He attended University of the Pacific, based out of Stockton, California.
