Sadly, BBD.  Flashes of decent play, mixed with lots of energy and effort and pie crumbs...

good preseason topic

as always I'm afraid to say I'm like Antoine Walker

I have some skill, but it was never honed properly and I never met a shot I didn't like.  I produce a run of 5 straight buckets followed up by dribbling off my foot and throwing the ball to the wrong player.  Oh yeah, and I play terrible defense.

so my +/- effect on the game is usually 0

p.s. and yes, I definitely do the Walker Wiggle when I'm really pumped up

that reminds me, in the dorms, during the sad days back in 04' 05' and 06' we used to all get up and do this crazy combo of the walker wiggle ( and that "wild and crazzzyyy guys!!" steve martin used to do whenever walker (or later, any awkward move by a bench guy.) would do something goofy but it worked (like his 1 inch vertical hook shots) while making random bill cosby nosies and making the toine face.

drinking may have been heavily invovled.

ahhh the bad days. that was the same time we were so bad we made up a new scoring system...

lost by 10+ points= loss

lost by less than 10= win

actually winning= Super win.

The walker wiggle took over pick up games when he was with us.  I had two friends that loved Toine and both loved to wiggle after big shots.  Eventually it was way too much wiggling for anyone to handle.  We had to force them to stop.

This one is one of the easiest questions asked.

Bruce Bowen (early days)

Great D/No O!

I can play killer D (6'0" tall however, almost a 7' wingspan)  Yeah, gorilla ish!

BUT

I can't shoot to save my life!

Manu Ginobili

I am always slashing and I can finish with both hands. Sometimes I can step out and hit the 3 too.

Plus I am very scrappy.

I want to be KG, highest paid player in the league ( at least for this year until his extension kicks in) then I would want to be Ray Allen with that smooth stroke from the 3pt line.
