I never got the impression that he was that great of a guy... ever since I saw an news-journalism piece on NBA players "planting their seed" while on the road and ignoring the fruits of their labor from then on. Antoine was one of the main subjects, with at least 1 or 2 confirmed 'abandoned' children conceived on road trip romances.
But I don't know him personally, and I don't know the full truth or extent of the story, so I won't pass to much judgment or consider him any worse than the norm for athletes.
