Hornets Hype

From Blog of New Orleans, an excellent blog/publication that can always be counted upon to ask the right questions:

“I was Shaft for Halloween,” Ely said. “I had a whole suit and a small hat that I taped on to my hair. Then this morning I asked the guys if I should keep my hair like this for the game and they all said yes.”

But he’s not going to keep it.

“It’s unmanageable,” he said. “It retains so much heat and I get so hot on the court. Just look at how much water it retains.” Ely, who had come out of the shower 15 minutes before talking to me, then started flicking his fro at Hilton Armstrong, spraying drops of water on him.

“Man, don’t be spraying me with your nasty hair water,” Armstrong protested.

The original post, in its full hilarity plus an update on Hilton Armstrong’s new arena sound effect, here.
