[fordronken]

I'm sorry, but this guy's summer antics still crack me up.

Anfernee "Penny" Hardaway: The former All-Star has hardly been seen since the Knicks dealt him to Orlando for Steve Francis, though there was talk the Bobcats were considering him before they settled on Derek Anderson. His agent did not return a call seeking an update. Hardaway wrote on his Web site this summer that his knees feel "great" and he was dunking.

He is dunking? Quick someone sign him to a max contract.

The man is a 6' 7" professional basketball player, and happy he's dunking? I'm about 6'0", 50 lbs. overweight and white, with a couple surgically repaired ankle ligaments, and I can get a couple fingers on the rim. If I had seven more inches, I'd be dunking too. You'd think his standards would be a bit higher.

But do you have a tattoo which reads "SECOND HALF: HEAVEN SENT"?

I believe it was "Heaven Cent" - which is even funnier on many levels.

I always liked Penny as a player, but it was hard to see an athlete who had obvious limitations but didn't realize them. He never embraced the fact that he could fill a role and still be an important contributor.

New York?

What's up with Shandon Anderson? Can he still play? We might need some insurance on SGs come playoff time.

In the words of Ron Howard:

"He wasn't and we don't."

Only Bell is a true SG on your list. Others are either too small or too slow.

 

[Louis]

I can dunk too!

Can I play in the NBA?

You say our SGs are too slow and you pimp Shandon Anderson?!?!?!? Wow. That speaks for itself....
