    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>-In the hallway outside the Toronto locker room, Raptors GM Bryan “Dapper Dan” Colangelo is holding court with me and three of the local writers. As we discuss some of the big trades that went down this season, Primoz Brezec walks by and he is completely drenched in sweat from the pregame warmup.

    (As Brezec passes our group, he raps (loudly), “She said she wants a hood ni**a!” We all stare at each other for a few seconds trying to decipher what just happened, leading to Colangelo apologizing for the Slovenian’s gangsta ways, and everyone doubling over in laughter.)

    -It should not surprise you to discover that Primoz instantly became my favorite human being on the planet following that little outburst.</div>

    I had a good laugh when I read this.

    Can someone please explain to me what the hell goes on in Primoz's head? [​IMG]

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>He wasn't the only answer, but Brezec delighted the customers with his hustle and got Sam Mitchell's head shaking a few times with his sign language. Mitchell probably shakes his head plenty at Brezec anyway, letting on that the new man refers to him as "Gangster," in some variation. The cause seems to be that he learned his English from watching popular culture and, as Mitchell said, "everything started with gangster and ended with pimp.

    "I don't know who he was around or what movies he was watching,'' Mitchell added. "I don't even know my name. I don't think it's Coach anymore, or Sam. It's Gangster. I won't add the second part."

    Brezec suspects something was lost in the translation. "No, they call me Gangster. But Sam's Gangster, too,'' he said. "I respect Sam. He was there when I was in Charlotte. He's not scared and that's the most important thing in this business, to not be scared and trust the players. He don't take no (bleep) from nobody. I've got no problem if he curse me out if I do something wrong. Tell me."</div>

    Primoz claims to have learned English through rap music. I don't know how he got into Gorilla Zoe but he is supposedly up on WCC and NWA, etc..
