Why was my thread deleted? I can't help but think hes the coolest basketball player in the world. I guess there are many a Cherokee Parks haters.
That's just wrong. He's just a wealth of talent waiting to be discovered. I think someone should give him a chance. I wonder if he drives a Jeep Grand Cherokee. But truthfully, he was discovered as an indian cheif at an indian casino in Arizona. The scouts saw him tossing coins into a slot machine. They were simply in awe of his natural talent, so precise, getting the coins in the slots. Thank you for your time.
Maybe he can join Wojo on the Dukie coaching staff. Cherokee has always had great fundamentals, but his injuries and inability to defend inside killed his career.
I moved this thread to college since Cherokee's glory days ended at Duke. His pro career isn't worth talking about, but I'd like to hear more Casino stories.
Here is another story. One day Cherokee was walking around oblivious to the fact the FBI was after him to recruit him for their secret team to weed out crack dealers in the NBA. SO he was walking along, eating some oats, and the FBI agent put his foot out and tripped Cherokee. Cherokee was like "WTF MAN," and the agent said "Son, that is no way to speak to your superior officer!" A tear rolled down Cherokee's face, for he knew he had made it into a profession in which he could follow his dreams.
Dude, you got one cracked-out imagination! That's some pretty funny shiznit though. Don't forget : Cherokee does have one claim to fame in the NBA - Best ink ever!
