I've been following Antonio since the Duke days. I, too, was excited to get his autograph (and Jeff Capel's) at a Grand Rapids Hoops CBA game a couple years ago. I really admire how he was a double-major at Duke, not an easy feat to accomplish to be sure. I wish Antonio had a news site so we could keep updated on him more easily! He is my favorite basketball player of all time!

I think a fan club would be an excellent idea! Antonio is such a good person and one exciting (and handsome too) basketball player. All I ever hear is great things about him. I'd like to assist in getting a fan club started as well.

I myself also loves the way Antonio Lang plays basketball. I have to admit that at first, i really did not like him even during his Blue Devils days but as time passed by, he was able to prove me wrong by making me like him. By the way, i am from the philippines and i saw him play here for the PBA. Now, i consider him one of my bball heroes.

Hello, Antonio you may not remeber me but I use to work out with you from time to time at University of South Alabama in Mobile where I attended school.. You told me I should of tried out but I was foolish. Anyways I'm in the Army now and i still love to ball. If you still don't remeber me I played horse with you and you beat me "DUH" but I talked a lot of shit. Man its hard I have 4 more years to go in the military and I'm not happy. Yo, Antonio you gave me your number at one time but I have been through so many trials and tribulations in my life I don;t know who else to turn to. Antonio what I'm trying to say is I still want to play ball, possibly that league that's around people trying tp make it to the next level... P.S. This will probably never get to you but thankyou for being an inspiration in my life.

From: Denise
I just wanted to give the props to Tony Lang, somebody who really deserves it more than anyone else, because he is a great role model, a wonderful guy, and of course an excellent ball player. I've watched his game ever since he played in high school. Keep God first in your life, okay? Love ya! Can't wait to see you back in the NBA again. A fan for life DENISE HARRIS

my god, tony lang has fast became better than ever. he once again plays for the red bull thunder in this SAMSUNG PBA COMMISIONER'S CUP. his game became more deadly than before. i just can't say enough about the man. His team has only played in just two games so far in this young new season but the record shows us a 2 win and zip loss card. just a fact to add, he scored 27 points each in back to back affairs. not bad!!!!!

From: Tanya Williams
What a wonderful ball player.

From: Enrico M. from CSA (00-01) and now Letran
OMG! This guy is the best import I've seen in the PBA's 25+yr history. No one can even compare what he has done to revolutionize the kind of import playing in the PBA. Imo, he is the FIRST ever "team" player import. Despite all his success, he's a very humble guy. This guy has the respect of all the PBA fans in the country and how he made the game so exciting (I wish i had recorded his every game in the '01 Commissioner's cup

From: Enrico M. from CSA (00-01) and now Letran
PBA finals, truly a classic) Before, the coaches in the PBA all rely on their imports but not this guy, he gets all of his team mates involve, trusts them and raise their level into new heights. Now the PBA crowd can see what real team basketball really is and for that I cannot thank him enough. I've only known this guy for more than a year but i feel I've become one of his life long fans, hope he keeps on playing here and lead Red Bull to more championships in the future. Gotta luv his leadership and screaming tongue gesture when he makes an unbelievable basket.

From: Kenny Dismukes
Tony Lang is the best. I have watched him play since he was in high school, when he went to Duke, and during his years in the NBA. You go boy! I hope you have much continued success.

From: Kokak
In the PBA, you're the best Import ever.

From: Demetrice Stokes
I'd like to give a shout out to Antonio Lang, one of the best ball players I have ever seen. I must admit that I have had a little "crush" on him for a while (don't tell!) I just think he is so gorgeous. What really inspires me is the fact that he does not forget to thank God in everything that he does. It's been so nice to see a great guy and a fine man play the game of basketball like he does. Here's to all the success and best wishes one could ever ask for, for Antonio Lang. We love you!

I really admire Tony Lang. You know why? In their (Red Bull's) first game in this 2002 commissioners cup, he scored 37 points and i think 16 rebounds that made him the Best player of the Game. After the game he was congratulated by the press for his performance and he said this "I REALLY HAVE TO GIVE THE CREDIT TO ALL MY TEAM MATES BECAUSE THEY'RE THE ONES WHO MADE ALL THIS EASY FOR ME". Clearly, he is not a self-centered man who despite all the efforts he did in the game he never thinks that everthing was because of HIM but because of his team mates. Another quality this man has is his sense of LEADERSHIP. This attribute is one of the reasons of RED BULL's victory last year.

Hello, my friends and i find Tony Lang so admirable. In their (Red Bull) first game in this year's commissioners cup , he scored 37 points and 16 rebounds, plus good defense/offense and that made him Best Player of the Game. After the game he was congratulated by the press and he said this "I REALLY HAVE TO GIVE THE CREDIT TO ALL MY TEAM MATES BECAUSE THEY'RE THE ONES WHO MADE ALL THESE THINGS EASY FOR ME". Clearly this man is not self-centered despite all the efforts he did in the game. A VERY HUMBLE MAN. Another admirable quality that Tony has is his sense of LEADERSHIP that other imports lack. This attribute is one of the reasons that RED BULL TEAM won its first championship trophy last year (2001). To Tony, your fans in the Phils. will surely miss you. Good luck and we love you.

From: James Watson
I myself have been a loyal fan of Antonio Lang for a long, long time. He is one of the true "gentlemen" of the game of basketball. His humbleness, leadership, and faith in God has really put him at the top of his game, higher than anyone other player, who has to be flashy just to be seen. Antonio is a true hero of the game, and he deserves all the props. Continue to trust in Him, and he will take you higher than you have ever been. God bless you and your family!

HI TONY! I THINK WHAT THE RED BULL TEAM DID TO YOU WAS COMPLETELY STUPID AND SO UNPROFESSIONAL! THEY WOULDN'T HAVE ENTERED THE FINALS WITHOUT YOU. I MEAN, HOW CAN THEY EXPECT TO GET TO THE FINALS IF THEY'LL ONLY RELY ON THAT USELESS GORILLA NWOSU? I HOPE YOU CAN COME BACK HERE IN THE PHILIPPINES, WHIP RED BULL'S ASS IN THE FUTURE, AND SECURE YOUR PLACE AS THE GREATEST PBA IMPORT OF ALL TIME!

From: shawn
here is a great guy who can really play the game of basketball. i have been to several of his game in which he played in and he did not disappoint the crowd at all. i wish you can come back to the states and play ball because we really miss you here. however,, i wish you much success in where ever you play because i know for a fact that you are a crowd pleaser..take care and god bless
