    ...that the two best point guards in the east are named after Steven Speilburg movies?

    Alan Iverson - AI
    Sam Cassell - ET

    Jason Kidd is better than Sam Cassell.

    Easily resolved - give Kidd a part in a Spielberg movie. [​IMG]

    Following the same logic, can we not also say that out of a couple of Georgetown's great center's, one talks like the cookie monster (Dikembe) while the other looks like a monster (Patrick)?

    Or how about this one; Ewing looks like one of the gorilla's from the movie Congo, which is the country Mutombo hails from? [​IMG]

    Dang, does it suck being sick today. [​IMG]

    The AI movie came out after Iverson had his name.

    AI has been an acronym for Artifical Intelligence for many years, so Spielberg did not originate that shortcut.

    Wow, those little grinning faces are starting to lose their effect rapidly.

    I thought it was worth a chuckle anyway.
