your daily dose of starbury

Ok *now* things are getting weird…
* Apparently, at some point in time when I wasn’t watching (which believe it or not is most of the time) Steph apparently invited a guy named Daniel from the Starbury TV chat room whose mother recently died to come work for him and stay at the house. He flew him in and TMZ filmed the whole thing at the airport and apparently while driving home, they were involved in a minor fender bender (which is up on YouTube). Also at some point today, Steph’s sister flew in unannounced from Washington D.C. because she, “heard he was buggin’.” Then later, the behind-the-scenes camera showed Mooncricket (the Justin.tv camera guy who has been helping Steph with the streaming since the beginning) and the new kid Daniel sitting in the movie theater in Steph’s house. Steph came into the room and handed Daniel a cell phone and told him that he’s going to pay him to answer it.

Here’s this phone and I’m going to pay you… but you have to answer it!

Later on, Steph sent out a tweet giving out the number as some kind of hotline.

Just to see what would happen, I called the number. It went straight to voice mail and said the box is full. Steph is supposed to be coming on later tonight with this kid Daniel around 11:30pm est.

I have to work tomorrow (and also may be too busy getting love advice on Ustream from Chad Ocho Cinco) so I don’t think I’m going to watch… We’ll see though.

Update #1: Yeah, ok… I stayed up and watched. Well actually I was watching Chad (who also gave out his phone number tonight — what’s up with these guys?) and someone on Twitter said Steph was on so I checked it out. He came on at 11:25pm and started taking calls from fans on the cell phone mentioned above. Then announced that this 24/7 thing was going to be his life from now on. Blamed ESPN for making him look crazy. Danced around to Diamond Girl. Rinse. Repeat. I guess the big announcement was fans being able to reach him now. I think I’ll stick with Chad and his love advice. If I have to listen to any more Drake or that damn Diamond Girl song, I’m going to go apeshit.

Update #2: Later on, he got in a fight with his sister (and it’s already been posted on Youtube). In the morning, his stream window was black but music could be heard playing. He spent the morning talking to fans in the chat application and at one point indicated that he would like to play basketball overseas in Italy [Broadcaster starburytv: yes they did say that i was crazy for saying that i was going to go over seas which 99 percent of me is going to italy to play. i cant wait either. man its going to be great.]

    Ha ha..thanks for the update. I've peeked in to the site two or 3 times over the last few days. I've noticed that alot of the chatters seem to be young girls who like seeing Steph w/his shirt off, but no nothing about hoops. I've also noticed him getting a bit more desperate as time goes on. But, alas it still intrigues me. Tomorrow is the last day the C's have to offer Gabe Pruitt a deal-if they don't, the door is wide open for Steph.
  • I just don't see the Celtics touching him with a ten foot pole at this point. Everyone thinks he's crazy. On top of it, I don't think he wants to play in the NBA right now anyway. It will be sad if this really is the way his career ends, but right now I can't see any other alternative.
