Where in the world is Shabazz Muhammad?

In the closing days of the NBA season, draft talk is starting to heat up.  Personally, it's hard to talk about upcoming drafts without looking at past year's first.  Which brings me to Mr. Shabazz Muhammad.

Yea, y'all remember him.  The guy Greg Anthony called "a once-in-a-generation talent."  So if he and Lebron are considered the same generation, Shabazz is supposedly a more talented player than the chosen one!!

Not to get off track, but I want to apologize for referring to him as "Shabazz."  Although that is obviously his first name, he has lost all rights to being called that, especially after the real Shabazz [Napier] (Massachusetts's Sweetheart) has earned every right to such a name.

Any way, I just wanted to resurface the name of Shabazz Muhammad, who spent time in the D-league, and is completely lost in the rotation out in Minnesota.

I also wanted to post something so that I can say welcome to Peyton Jones on being our newest blogger.  The world has just become a shittier place.

P.S.  You can't name your article "Chicken and Waffles" when Bubba is NOT EATING CHICKEN.

P.P.S.   Muhammad is currently locked inside his Minnesota apartment whacking off to old high school basketball articles.  He's also very much regretting his "free Shabazz" campaign.  Sometimes it's just better off not being able to play.

What a Game

What a game.  Trading buckets down the stretch, tough plays both ways, the officials didn't end the game (Ari-cough-zona).  Can't remember watching a better game in recent history.  Hard fought for sure, got to feel bad for Michigan who gave it their best shot.  Those 132 offensive rebounds they grabbed on their last possession were man's work.  Then Levert nearly swatted the game winner right out of A(unimportant) Harrison's hands.

More importantly though let's look at what the rest of the field looks like.  According to ESPN only 612 brackets had the correct final four out of 11 million plus.  That's pretty insane when you stop to think about it.  What makes it even more incredible is the fact that if you told anyone that these would be the four teams no one would be that surprised.  They're all just teams that definitely could have made it, but probably wouldn't because they're underachieving freeloaders.  Then all of a sudden Shabbaz Kemba Napier has the tournament of his life and Kentucky looks like a bunch of seasoned vets.  Wisconsin finally has enough offense to look like a real basketball team and I mean no one is surprised that Florida is here.

Speaking of which, Florida looks very impressive.  As admirable as Kentucky, UCONN and Wisconsin's runs have been, it almost has the feel that one team has the dick and the others are just happy to be where they are.  That Florida defense looks like a brick wall.  Just can't see them losing to anyone not here, not there, not anywhere.
