Sure, this Wake Forest team isn’t very good, but they’re only one Tim Duncan, one Randolph Childress, and a couple of Billy Packers away from being pretty solid.
How many distractions can a single game handle? As if two former national championship teams being in the house wasn’t enough, the game included a bird flying across the court, coaches wearing tennis shoes, and yet another showing from the World’s Least Enthusiastic Fan, John Edwards.
You know you’ve attained the highest possible status in life when you no longer have to clap at a Carolina basketball game, no matter what happens on the court. This privilege is reserved for only the most elite. Joe Quigg, Jimmy Black, Warren Martin…these guys still clap during the game. But as for the highest social order: Perkins, Worthy, Rosenbluth, Jordan, Makkonen…you won’t find them clapping for anything.
There’s a good chance that Alex Stepheson’s arms are thicker than his own thighs.
In one partcularly bizarre moment during the game, someone called Jordan’s cell phone only to ask to talk to somebody else. Who in the world has access to MJ’s cell phone number, has the cajones to call it during a game and then not even want to speak to him?
This from friend-of-the-site Eleanor (yes, the site has many, many friends): Despite John Edwards’ complete incompetence when it comes to being a good fan, his wife Elizabeth is actually quite passionate.
This is nothing that hasn’t been said verbatim in several previous editions of Random Thoughts, but Marcus Ginyard should play every minute of every basketball game ever played.
James Worthy may have some sort of dyspeptic problem. He seems to burp quite often.
Has there ever been a name that sounded less like a National Player of the Year than “Lennie Rosenbluth?”
Is Michael Jordan the most famous person in the world. It’s probably not debatable that he was in the ’90s, but is that still the case?
