Sheed has been an active member in the community, helping the underpriviledged, both in Portland and Detroit (no word on Atlanta). He's also supposedly a good and dedicated father.

IMO, that weighs more heavily in terms of his character then whether he was "sometimes polite, sometimes rude" around your friend.

As noted by someone else earlier..Sheed never raised his game in the playoffs and thus the team never realized it's potential IMO.
Noted incorrectly. He averaged over 30 PPG in the Western Conference Finals against the Lakers in 2000 and the next year he played great defense against Shaq in the playoffs while putting up efficiency numbers that rivaled Shaq's.
