I believe that it is really important to interact with fans. Even when I’m preparing for a big game, I always make sure to stop and sign autographs and take photos when I can.
Before game 2, I had a funny moment with a Lakers fan who said he liked me, but wanted us to lose. With a little convincing, I was able to get him to say “Go Magic”.
I also got a chance to meet American Idol winner Kris Allen. He sang the National Anthem before game 2. Check out the video below.
