Very professional and humble guy, which is pretty much unheard of in the NBA. I wish him the best.

"I know how to be a professional, I'm disciplined and I'm going to work hard," James added. "I know how to be part of a team. I fill my role for the greater good of the group. I see the big picture. A lot of guys don't really have a grasp on that. They're only thinking about themselves and their game, rather than thinking about the big picture and the team. A lot of people are bred and trained from childhood to make it to this level, but I've had an entire life before this. Basketball came later on for me."

He has a solid foundation. Most veterans don't go stupid once they make the jump to another career. That's why people like to hire them.

He will be fine.
