Finally, The Important Information About Syracuse Basketball

The members of the 2009-2010 basketball team were faced with some extremely difficult questions as part of the season preview.  Here are their honest and open-hearted answers (with snarky commentary).

Who twitters the most? 

Answers were all over the place for this one.  Scoop, KrisJo, Wes and even Coach Murphy were thrown up for considering.  As someone who follows each of them, I can say that the correct answer is...Kris Joseph.  Whereas Scoop, Wes and the others tweet in short bursts, KrisJo is a constant on my feed.  That sounds weird.

Who’s the best/worst at NBA video games?

Rautins: I don’t even play video games. I hear Mookie talking about it a lot. I wanna say Reesie will be pretty bad at it.
Reese: I don’t play, so I don’t know.

Well, at least they're in agreement.

What’s the gadget you’d love to buy but can’t afford?

Rautins: I want one of those oxygen chambers. You suck on them and you’re in phenomenal shape.

Andy, I don't think that's an oxygen chamber you're thinking of.  And I don't think I want to know...

What reality show would you win?

Jones: I Love Money on Vh1
Triche: I love money on Vh1

Your parents would be so proud.

Who’s the most underrated NBA player?

Reese: Jonny Flynn, Minnesota Timberwolves

The only guy to answer correctly.

What’s your dream place to live?

Jardine: Santa Monica, Calif.
Jones: L.A.
Southerland: I don’t know if it gets any better than New York City, but I’ll say California.

Guys...I have a couch.  Whoever wants it...

What’s your favorite class?

Riley: I’m not taking math now, but it’s my favorite subject.

Natch.

What fictional character do you most resemble?

Jackson: I don’t know. (Good idea)
Jardine: Mickey Mouse (What?)
Johnson: Wolverine (What?)
Jones: Batman (What?)
Joseph: Wolverine. (What?)
Onuaku: Optimus Prime (WHAT?)
Rautins: Derek Zoolander (We've seen the pink shirt, Andy.  We know.)
Reese: The Flash (What?)
Riley: Goofy (What?)
Southerland: My dad would say Patrick Star from Spongebob because I’m a goof-ball. (What?)
Triche: Hawk (Who? Just Hawk? Hudson Hawk? Which Hawk?)

Arinze saying Optimus Prime makes sense. he is a big ass truck, never smiles (because he is a robot, but the comparison works) and I heard Optimus sucks at Free Throws.

Optimus would

have a horrible FT percentage. Alright, it’s allowed.

Clearly believes that freedom is the right of all sentient beings

I am pretty sure that Triche meant

Lincoln Hawk. As far as I am concerned, there is no other Hawk (well except for Hawk from LOD), but that might be before little Brandon’s time.

Remember the great answers from the past?

Who’s the best/worst at Pong?
Bouie: Louie.
Louie: Bouie

What’s your dream place to live?
McNamara: Anywhere in Latvia really. Wait, I forgot Bakersfield.

Other School edition:

What’s the gadget you’d love to buy but can’t afford?
Robert Traylor, University of Michigan: A booster was just asking me that… I told him I could use a newer SUV, so that’s out. I don’t know…

What’s your favorite class?
Derrick Rose: My stand-in really likes math.

How could you leave this off the list?

What’s your dream place to live?

Triche: Somewhere on top of a mountain

Easy, Hawk…..

Noted.

Please, God, make Triche a Hawk, so he can fly, far, far away from here…

i apologize

there is a Rick Jackson look a like inside the cuseorange.com forum. It was posted maybe a year ago and I can’t find it, but if anyone has seen it, it’s extremely accurate. If whoever made it still has it, it should be posted.
