White Flight

Note: This was written prior to Shoals post, and I'm too lazy to make any changes. If loving dunk contests is bourgeois, then I don't want to be proletarian.



I just wanted to let everyone know that the best dunker in the world now resides in San Antonio. The other day I said it was too early to officially start my Free Flight White campaign, but fuck it, let’s make it official. I need to see more of this man. I’ve exhausted his YouTube collection and need new material. Be sure to look for his between the legs flush from the free throw line. The video quality is poor, but it usually is with physical phenomena this improbable. You don’t see clean images of Bigfoot do you? I went with this clip because of the dunk variety, the dancing, and the Shakey Dog soundtrack. Consider it Phase II in my plan to make DLIC’s head explode by linking Tone to the Spurs.

Like the Bride visiting Pai Mei, James White has journeyed to a remote location to train at the feet of a harsh and uncompromising Master. Pop’s plan to co-opt J.R. may have failed, but he’s found a more than adequate alternative for the League minimum. At a LONG 6’7, White is an ideal protégé for Bowen. Factor in his McDonald’s All-American pedigree, background in sprinting and Cincy psych degree, and you have one hell of an unholy alliance. Still, he will struggle to find minutes any time soon, and it’s always hard to predict how a player will fit in. However, whether or not White sticks with the Spurs, rest assured that Pop will find someway to ensure that Bowen's legacy carries on.
