49. You're real. Your room is real. Your friends are real. Real, man, real. You know? Real, you know. You're more important than all the silly machinery. The silly machinery. And you know it! In 11 years it's going to be 1984, man. Think about THAT!
Wanna see me feed a mouse to my snake?
Yes.
The funniest moment of the movie goes to the funniest moment of the summer: Quentin Richardson getting traded three times in four weeks, from the Knicks to the Grizzlies to the Clippers to the Timberwolves. Look at the guys swapped for Q in those three trades. Darko Milicic (the premier draft bust of the decade); Zach Randolph (the premier bad contract of the decade); Bassy Telfair (the premier "high schooler who should have gone to college" guy of the decade); Mark Madsen (the premier towel-waving white guy of this decade); and Craig Smith (all right, he's not interesting, but still, four out of five "premier" decade guys!). And look at the four teams: Clippers, Grizzlies, T-Wolves and Knicks … probably the four worst teams of the decade.
Now, throw in Q kicking off the Sarver Is Secretly Cheap era in Phoenix (to carve out extra money to sign him, the Suns stupidly gave away the seventh pick in the '04 draft and passed on Luol Deng and Andre Iguodala), his extended tenure on Isiah's Knicks (one of the most disgraceful teams in sports history, and also, indirectly tying him to the Anucha Browne Sanders and Eddy Curry lawsuits), his cameo in the Nuggets-Knicks brawl (the second-biggest fight of the decade), and the fact that he played on the Clippers a few years before Elgin Baylor sued Donald Sterling for racial discrimination. Also, throw in that he was dealt straight up for Darko (on the floor for the Artest Melee) and Randolph (the star of the infamous Jail Blazers and someone who once sucker-punched registered sex offender Ruben Patterson). And throw in the Clippers renouncing Q's rights in the summer of 2004 so they could make a free-agent run at Kobe right after Bryant's sexual assault trial was settled out of court (and not getting him).
Basically, you can tie Quentin Richardson to every single horrible thing that happened in the NBA this decade with 10 or fewer words. Call it two degrees of Quentin Richardson. |
