I had a dream last night that Muggsy Bogues had retired... and shortly after retirement, he inexplicably started to grow.
He just kept growing... and growing...
It was discovered that years of playing basketball had stunted his growth... much like a female olympic gymnast. Now that he had retired, it unleashed some latent pituitary gland disorder... and now he was growing out of control.
He reached 8 feet tall... and realized the only way he could stop himself from growing was to start playing basketball again. So he desperately wanted to come out of retirement.
Problem was... he was in his 40s now.
Good news was... Muggsy Bogues had an unfathomably high basketball skill-set. Clearly anyone who can make the NBA at 5'3 has game. So now that he was towering over his competition at 8 feet tall... he was utterly unstoppable. Even in his 40s, nobody could stop that 8-foot-tall sweet-shooting speed demon.
Danny Ainge signed him. We won a title.
Then Muggsy tore his ACL, sprouted to 9 feet and died.
Thought I'd share.
