Usually people expect to receive a birthday cake with some candles, maybe a few presents, and a bottle of champagne for their birthday.  Not this time.  The Brooklyn Nets wished their star point guard Deron Williams a happy birthday, in one of the oddest ways, but it was very cool nonetheless.  

The team sent a big truck carrying a large sign on the back of it that read "Happy Birthday Deron!  From Your Brooklyn Family."  The nets logo was hanging on the sign above the "happy birthday" message, and the truck parked outside of Deron's house for a while to make sure he felt the love.

Some people feel this is an effort being made from the team to keep Deron from leaving the Nets organization for another team if he decides to do that through the free agency.  He turned 28 today, June 26th.
