It is my impression that Bulls fans aren’t very happy with Carlos Boozer’s play their team. But you take a look at his stats and think “Wow what are they complaining about, the Booze Cruise is putting up really nice numbers!”. But stats don’t tell the whole story. The story that goes something like this:…

Kent Bazemore 14 Points Full Highlights (3/15/3013)
Imagine this: a big meatball sub, overflowing with bright red marinara sauce thick with tomato chunks. Divinely melted mozzarella cheese draped over the whole thing, bonded to the bakery-fresh white roll and semi-transparent. Authentic, fresh-out-of-the-garden Italian spices decorate the creation like confetti – basil, oregano, maybe some rosemary. Artfully prepared orbs of pure beef are…

Serge “The Congolese Crusher” Ibaka, according to his Wikipedia article, has 17 brothers and sisters. If I was an NBA team I would be looking at some of his siblings, as some of them undoubtedly share his height and athleticism. Wait. What if the Thunder got all his brothers on the same team? Whoa.

Rodrigue “French Kiss” Beaubois’ career has pretty much been on a downward slide since he had that 40 point game a couple years back. My opinion of him is still colored by that game, I think he should be getting more minutes even though he’s been pretty poor this year. At least he should get…

18 points. 7 assists. 6 rebounds. 4 steals. 2 blocks. What kind of basketball god could accumulate such amazing stats in a single game? LeBron? Yeah, he’s done it, but he’s surpassed godhood and ascended into the highest state of being so he doesn’t really count. He’s the only one so far this year, but…

“Psst. Psst! George! Come over here, we need to talk!” “Hibs, man, what are you doing in a storage closet?” “This is top secret stuff, dude. Now get ova’ here.” “Okay, Roy, what is it?” “Listen, George, I’ve been thinkin’… I want to take a three this game.” “You can’t shoot threes, I’ve seen you…
