Let me say this is one the nicest player/person I've ever met. It was at the Meijers on Hall Road. He was shaking hands, posing for pictures with fans (which we weren't allowed to do but Stuck made an exception for his fans ) and he was all smiles and chatting.
I met Tayshaun a couple of months ago. ALl he did was autograph it and moved on, didn't even make eye contact except with a little girl who got him to smile. Stuck was all smiles, cracking jokes, and actually looked like he wanted to be there. Great hour at Meijers!

I met Barry Sanders, Rick Mahorn, and Herman Moore working at Toys R Us quite a few years back. Barry was exactly how you described Tay. Really did not say anything, took a couple of autographs, one of which I have in a case on a football. Rick was totally opposite. He was just joking around with everyone, hitting on the girls at the registers.

i knew a guy that met barry on a plane - he had to trade seats with barry because he had kids in the exit row - said barry was a complete jerk.

I met Stuckey last summer during the Pistons bus tour. He was incredibly nice and took a picture with me, too. This is how athletes should treat their fans. It's nice to see that he has this figured out. I hope his career turns out as nice as he is.
Give it a season or two, he'll be just as big of an arse as the rest of them.
It's a new concept to him.

I don't know, the big stars I always thought and heard were really nice was Shaq and D Wade. I love when these big time celebrities acknowledge that the fans are the reason they are where they are.
