Vince Grzegorek of the incredible Uni Watch blog posted this excerpt from fringe NBA player Lance Allred’s new book  (hat tip: jayg108):

"LeBron: “Look at this guy!”Ben Wallace: “What?”LeBron: “He’s wearin’ his D-League socks. Someone get this sumbitch a new pair of socks.”Me: “Thanks, Bron, but I am okay. I wear these socks to remind me where I came from.”LeBron: “Man, if I was doing that, my socks would have no toes.”Ben Wallace: “I would be playing basketball in the dark. Don’t you dare turn on that light boy! Wasting the electric bill and all!”Me: “All apologies, fellas. A comparison of socioeconomic backgrounds was not my intent. Your shot, Mr. James.”"
