What The Game's Been Missing

by Ziller on Oct 10, 2007 10:44 AM PDT in Multimedia

jjs has amply corroborated evidence he would know what's going on with Spencer Hawes, which is to say he's not bullsh*tting us. He says Shawes is doing well after surgery and should be back in a few weeks. He also kindly submitted this evidence Shawes is much cooler than his Rocky IV dedication would have you believe.

UPDATE: Sam Amick talked to Spencer's dad, who confirms. (That surgery was a success, that is. Not that Spencer appreciates some Juelz Santana.)

Re: What The Game's Been Missing

Just once I want someone to come away from a sports surgery and say, "It was a complete effing disaster."

Not because I wish ill of Hawes or anyone else, but come on. The "surgery was successful" story is so inevitable and so completely stupid. WE'LL SEE if it was successful

Re: What The Game's Been Missing

I think that could be said of Greg Oden's scope. It turned into a complete f'n disaster.

Amen to that.

We are slipping into the NBA abyss.

I think Hardaway would say that don't you.

Re: What The Game's Been Missing

When you walk out of the hospital I think you could say it was a success.

I love the contrast in Spence's posse between the tiny dude with the bling and sweet tilted bandana and the dude mugging with the Polo sweater vest. Definitely not a group of guys to mess with. Yo check yourself team dime.

Damn you Robert Horry!!!

Re: What The Game's Been Missing

chupacabra, the "tiny dude with the bling and sweet tilted bandana" is actually a pretty known rapper from New York, as TZ mentioned in the update. His name is Juelz Santana. So this is probably just a picture of 3 friends taking a picture with a rapper. I'm pretty sure Spencer Hawes and Juelz Santana don't kick it and go clubbin' or anything like that.

In defense, Juelz is tiny.

Re: What The Game's Been Missing

Sorry fellas, missed the fine print and not too up to date on the current crop of pop hiphop stars. I just stopped caring after Biggie and Pac. I heading right out to Barnes and Noble to pick up a Source magazine and get straight.

Damn you Robert Horry!!!
