    Fine. You want me to drop the real knowledge?

    "The Natural?" You know what that's from, right?

    Ok. Assuming as much.....

    Who is "The Natural?" ROY Hobbs.

    Brandon Roy Hobbs.

    It's easy.

    BOOK IT

    Gee. Really? "The Natural" is from the book The Natural featuring veteran Roy Hobbs. Hadn't figured that one out yet, so thanks for dropping "the real knowledge".

    I think The Natural is my favorite nickname for him. It fits really well IMO.

    So you're telling me that Brandon Roy "Hobbs" isn't fresh? Really? Tell me where you heard that nickname for him. Tell me. Show me. You can't. If "the natural" isn't good enough for you "genius's" then how is "Brandon ROY HOBBS" played out? That is a sick nickname, and the blazers could play that shit up silly.

    Imagine.......when brandon roy's name is announced during the starting lineup.......and that big, huge fat HD score board is showing that shot of Roy Hobbs deep home run shot off the lights.....fireworks....and all that shit.......how fucking hot would that be upon B-Boy's announcement? Seriously. It's perfect.

    It's perfect...if it weren't baseball. A deep home run highlight to introduce a basketball player? That's more confusing than hyping.

    Who knows if he's being real or not during that rant. I say no. I think he's just twisted up because nobody liked "Clutch 'n Humble" To me it sounds like a dynamic duo or something. Thunder & Lightning, Axle & Smash, PB & J, Milo & Otis, Sasha Grey & Bree Olsen....it goes on and on.

    ^Yeah that works for me. The Natural fits because his game is so smooth as well.
