Nets.com: When you got your contract extension here in Brooklyn, some of the narrative was that of an underdog story made good. Did you feel like that, or did you feel like this is where you were supposed to be all along? Spencer Dinwiddie: That’s the thing; from jump, I always felt like this is where I was supposed to be. There were talks of me being a lottery pick before I got hurt, so playing at this level, it wasn’t like, ‘Oh, he’s not talented.’ The talent was there, or I wouldn’t have been on draft boards as high as I was with the talks of going mid first round, 10 to 20 or something like that. That doesn’t happen to non-talented people, unless you’re like 7-5 or something like that. So in a lot of ways I felt like, this is me. I understand you guys don’t believe it or tried to shelve it or acted like it wasn’t there or whatever adjective or situation is synonymous with that type of vibe.
