Once again, I have been misled as to the age (and thus, the quality) of an NBA prospect. I don’t know who it is doing the misleading, but it has to be someone, because I wouldn’t be so consistently wrong on these things.
I was under the impression that Cameron “Tall Booker” Johnson was, like, 20 years old. Maybe even younger. Jokes on me, I guess, because I’m looking at his birthday right now and I can’t believe that he’s already 23. You know how old that is? He’s been alive for 23 whole revolutions of the Earth around the sun. That’s a lot of revolving.
So when I use the nickname “Tall Booker”, a reference to Devin Booker (not Trevor Booker who he is the same height as), people should be realizing that Johnson is actually OLDER than Booker. How messed up is that? I’m totally freaking out right now. Why did no one tell me this? And why isn’t Johnson playing like his age suggests he should by scoring 25 a night on sick percentages?
My whole world is collapsing around me, if you couldn’t tell. An earthquake could come right at this very second and wouldn’t make a difference due to how thoroughly collapsed everything is.
