Trevor's Game-Sealing Dunk Against the Hornets


Courtesy, as always, of Clutch Fans.

I'm not going to pretend that I was watching this game with the most discerning eye, since I was mostly preoccupied with the AWESOME FREAKING SEATS I had. I was even on TV:

Yes, mis amigos, that lumpy, headbanded smudge is yours truly. I was like two feet from the Hornets bench. I got to heckle Emeka Okafor ("Where did they teach you to suck?") and Jeff Bower ("Maybe you'd get more calls if you didn't draft crappy players!" and "If that's the play you're calling, Jeff, it's no wonder you're going to the lottery") and tell Chris Paul to "get used to the lottery," so he'd "better ask to get traded to Clutch City." Nevertheless, I was nothing compared to the guys seated directly behind my friend, cousin, and me. Those guys put in a truly heroic effort against Okafor and Posey and were hilarious to boot.

So, uh, the lesson here is that courtside seats are pretty sweet, folks.

As for actual basketball information:

  •  I do not believe for a second that Emeka is 6'10".
  • David West whines ALL THE TIME - to the refs and to his teammates.
  • We all know that Chris Paul's a bit of an excitable little scamp, but this is especially obvious up close. Oh, and he's a better coach than Bower.
  • Trevor is CRAZY long, and he needs to dunk more.

Wow, nice seats.

Mine aren’t as good, that’s for sure. Good heckling. My all-time best is getting Scott Rolen to flip me off (stealthily) twice in one game.

So is Bower letting Paul call the plays? He might as well – more job security for him.

I wish I could say they're mine

They’re my aunt’s company’s season tickets. Best. Christmas. Ever. Except for maybe the time I got a bike.

Sadly for them, no, but most of the plays I saw him draw up were of the “set a pick for CP. David, make a cut to the basket. Peja, stand outside the arc so that you can brick the open shot” variety. CP3 did a better job actually coaching, though. Like I said, he’s excitable, and he has a habit of telling his teammates what they’re doing wrong and trying to correct them.

Awesome seats anyway. Plus a good game for the seats.

That Ariza dunk

mirrored a young T-Mac in a way. By no means am I comparing him to McGrady though.

nice seats, but...

Did you use your newfound status to elbow Jesse Jackson in the head? No??

Then you missed a golden opportunity, sir.

Oh, and Trevor: dunk more, shoot less. Problem solved. Except for your atrocious free throw form.
