<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>MT: By most accounts, Lopez is athletic, flush with offensive talent and possesses the ability to get up and down the floor. How does his skill set translate to the NBA game? Johnson: I'm not an NBA coach, but when you look at 7-foot, 260 for a kid that's capable of shooting it from 20 feet, has an array of post moves, is real strong and real fluid, I think his skill set should really, really flourish at that level. We were forced to put him around the basket a lot, because, quite frankly, no one could stop him down there. He can turn left shoulder, and he can turn right shoulder. Offensively, he's a lot more gifted and skilled that what he's shown at the collegiate level.</div>

Youtube vids of comedians responding to hecklers are funny as hell. George Carlin, Jamie Kennedy, Kevin Smith, and Joe Rogan owned their hecklers.

lol yeah talk about a weird way to get to know someone! I've only lost a sig bet once, and that was to Celtic King (I believe?) for a Nets-Celtics preseason game. If I remember correctly it was something about the Celtics winning the 2008 championship...crap.
lol, I love looking through My Pictures. I remembered the stage where I wanted to try making sigs, but realized I was too f'ing lazy to learn photoshop. Paint ftw! ... I used to love baiting Lakers fans.
Haha, I remember those, Chutney. They bring back memories. Speaking of bringing back memories, this time of year always brings back memories with me because of the draft. It's the time of the year when everyone's analyzing young players' games, looking at scouting reports and highlight reels, and it always brings me back to the times I've played against a lot of these guys from past, present, and future. I'm sure everyone can relate to this. You know how you have that one or two hoops highlights in your mind of your own game? You know, the one or two plays where you think, "Damn, even if an NBA scout were watching that play, he'd love my game"? I was just thinking back to one of those. It was me and J.P. Prince (now of University of Tennessee) going against one of the top teams in our division (with no DI players or anything... just a traditionally solid private school around town). We ran an isolation play for J.P., and he drove the ball into the paint, got to the middle of the paint and kicked the ball out to me (I was playing the 4 and was a little out to the right of the middle of the key), and as I was facing J.P., I whipped the ball behind my back just as two defenders (4 and 5) collapsed on me instead of him, and it went right between them to J.P., who was still in the act of cutting, and he layed the ball in and was fouled by the 5. It doesn't sound so great in text, but if you could see that exchange, you'd love it. Everyone started jumping on me and yelling all excited. It was probably the quickest and hardest pass I've ever thrown. I remember the ball touching my hands and leaving it behind my back less than a second later. It all happened hella quick. I also remember my first real good block about 7th grade in AAU play. I don't think anyone in the game was anyone notable, but I just remember when the guy went up for the runner and I matched him in the air, I straight up palmed the ball out of his hands, throwing it hard backwards out of his possession, behind his back to one of my teammates a few feet back (like a 7th grader would block a shot). He was going so quickly to the basket and it was such a quick reflex from me that we both just sorta paused like "did that just happen?," haha. I love it when plays like that stick in your memory and you can reminisce about them. It makes me sad that my days of making plays against big time players like that may be over, but at least I'll always be able to make plays like that on some level. Basketball is amazing. ... BTW - I figured out how to be a good freestyler. You basically have to rehearse your rhymes. They say freestyling is improv, but that's only half the truth for the great freestylers imo. You have to have your rhymes scripted, and then you try to memorize as much as possible once you get into the moment. It takes a lot of poise to remember 20+ bar freestyles like a rapper like Lil Wayne does, but a bad line in a rap song inserted into a freestyle line can be genius, so quality is not as important as flowing fast and coherently. I just composed eight different freestyles to Three Six and Lil Wayne beats, and I've got 'em all down by memory. I guarantee you if I put them on a rap track, they'd be seen as mediocre, but if I spit them freestyled, they'd be worshiped. It's funny how the game works that way.
I remember towards the end of my soccer-playing days, I had volunteered to move to defense because our team was stacked with forwards, and I was started to get disinterested with the new position. Then one game I was matched up with one of the better forwards in the league who just had this unbelievable douchy swagger about him. It was funny because I could relate to him, having played his position for years. But his attitude just seemed to light a spark under me. And it was all the more satisfying when I absolutely shut his ass down the entire game. I don't think he had ever matched up with a player at my size who still had the foot speed to keep up with him (he was really fast). It was so good that, by the middle of the second half, you could just see from his face that he wanted to get the hell off the field and go home. He started the game talking shit, but our roles were reversed by the end. I remember one particular play where I told him that I would give him a headstart since he had played so pathetically the entire game, and I was actually arrogant/selfish enough to give him one (on a breakaway). Not only did I catch up with him, but I knocked him to the ground (clean tackle) and stood looking down at him for a couple seconds before bringing the ball back upfield. Everyone on the field, bench, and stands picked up on the public humiliation. Those are the kind of plays that's led me to enjoy defense so much more than offense. I still love a good goal/basket, but when I'm playing, the look of frustration and defeat that an opponent shows when I play good D is the most satisfying thing.
Lol, I love those sigs Chutney. You should teach Yinka a thing or two. I'm just gonna play ball all day. I don't have anything better to do, other then to make some calls.
