Around SBN: Jeremy Lin's Game-Winner Was Incredible, Worth Remembering

Welcome back Nate, from Ridiculous Upside

by Scott Schroeder on Apr 4, 2009 5:19 PM EDT

Nate Jawai hates Idaho, but in his free time he measures his left hand in the Australian desert?

From the comments. I think this hits my thoughts on Big Nate Jawai perfectly. Special shoutout goes to Rumble, who penned this letter.

Dear Nate,

Welcome back. I have taken the privilege of extending your membership at Gold’s Gym and getting your own special key to the Boys and Girls Club. I have also instructed your teammates not to look at you funny, the referees not to call fouls on you and our guards to pass the ball to you regardless as to whether you are actually open or not. I am also going to bench Lance Allred, not because he might actually have more NBA game time than you, but because you make 20x more than he does – so it stands to reason you are 20x better.

While some of the backwoods hillbillies (like ownership and fans) might be more concerned with the D-League playoffs and repeating as DLeague champions, we will ignore the dolts as we all know this is all about you Nate. International. NBA. Star. (not quite on the level of Sun Yue, but who is?). So get back to your personal penthouse suite we have procured for you at our finest motel (Truck Stop Inn) and leave everything to me. I took good care of Josh McRoberts and I will take good care of you too.

Sincerely, your pal in the ways of the world,

Rumble

P.S. Please let me know if you want a Livingston Beer Coozie – if so, I will have to get there way early.

Guilt...

…upon rereading – it comes off a bit harsh.

But hey mate, Nate said it – and I just mocked it.

We just need to remember he is 19 years old…he’s 19 years old…he’s 19 years old…

Nate-o, play hard in the playoffs and ALL is forgiven (again, you can ask Josh McRoberts).

Nah, not harsh

but definitely hilarious!!! Now if only big Nate can learn to scowl like Josh did.

It's hilarious

Harsh as it may be, it’s not unwarranted. Just be careful he doesn’t find out who you are.

Scott you are picky...

Did Picaso’s friends tell him he didn’t use enough green in his paintings? No, he was a genius. I’m just saying.

You are a genius

But I believe everyone can use constructive criticism. Also, I’m still a bit bitter at the 5-day tease on the upcoming fanpost.

Dude it was a busy weekend

My girlfriend had me out in the yard cleaning up….and it was 75 degrees and breezy in Durham, NC. The Fan post had to wait.

Girlfriend? Outside?

Thank God I don’t let things like that affect my RU posting!
