How is Jason Terry still contributing to winning basketball? He was cooked that year with Brooklyn. Totally done. I saw him, everyone saw him, and no one could dispute that his days in the NBA were over. And that was four years ago! He was done as a player four seasons ago, and yet he’s still here. Still here and still somewhat playable.
It must be easier to stay relevant when all you do is shoot threes. Well, that and try to get the crowd pumped up at every opportunity. I hate that. In my opinion, basketball should be played in a noiseless, neutral environment, and here Terry is, motioning for the crowd to get loud every time he makes a three. And every time someone else makes a three. Seriously, I’ve come to appreciate him as a player, but between his endless hype and that corny-as-heck airplane celebration, I wish Father Time would come and take him away.
Not until the Bucks win a playoff series, though. That may not be this year, but next year, totally. Win a playoff series for Uncle Terry and then he can join Kidd on the bench or something.
