Udonis Haslem returns for 17th year in NBA

Udonis is one of my favorite Gators ever. He's a great representative of the University of Florida and South Florida. He's just a great guy. Very happy for him that he's been able to have this long of a career. He's been so solid and a good example to any young low block players of how to play the game the right way.

A note on Vince Carter that I think I saw on ESPN said he'd be the second player to dunk at the age of 43. I think it was Robert Parish that was the only other player to dunk at that age. Pretty incredible.

But he epitomizes NONE of the things that you want in a former gator player.
Udonis makes no bones about the fact that he is a Miami guy and a lifelong hurricanes fan.
He describes his years at UF as "a business decision only" and that he does not follow UF basketball.

Being a lifelong gators fan myself, I no longer pay any attention to Haslem's career.
