The Rain in Spain Falls Mainly from Vanilla Sky's Tears

As is known, Joe Alexander will not exist at the NBA's Slam Dunk Contest. He is a talented rim-swinger, but there were not enough votes. Here the Buck talks about that:

"It just sucks because I put together some pretty cool dunks."

Perhaps Alexander can use these special dunks at his private dunk party? After all, it will be his party, and he can be crying and dunking if he wants to.

Are you in the know that "Vanilla Sky" is Joe Alexander's nickname? I hope that Sergio Rodriguez never gets traded, but if he ended up on the Milwaukee Bucks, then Spanish Chocolate could play with Vanilla Sky.

And if both Joel Pryzbilla and Sergio got traded, and then Darryl Dawkins and Jason Williams came out of retirement, the line-up could be:

Vanilla Gorilla (Joel)
Spanish Chocolate (Sergio)
Vanilla Sky (Alexander)
Chocolate Thunder (Dawkins)
White Chocolate (Williams)

This could be of interest.

Hey Rudy,

I was wondering if perhaps you would like to do an interview about your upcoming participation in the dunk contest, as well as other basketball-related topics for the Kobestoppers.

I would like to get your thoughts (in English) about our top 5 dunks we hope you perform in the competition: http://kobestoppers.blogspot.com/2009/01/quick-update-mailbags-and-top-5s.html

Get back to me if you like the idea.

Rudy's Hypothetical Rules of Basketball

1. In ten years, nobody will remember the details of score, assists, or rebounds. They will only remember who won them a chalupa.

2. Any shot worth shooting is worth shooting twice.

3. When not shooting on offense, you should be communicating, passing, and running. Also, yell “Foul!” repeatedly. Why? How can officials summon help if you yell “Good D!” or “Our opponents are superior!”?

4. If legitimately called for a foul, say, “A good call!” (Do this no more than once a game.)

5. When in possession of the ball, have a plan. Further, have a back-up plan, because the first plan won't work (unless you are Brandon Roy).

6. Use cover or concealment as much as possible. (Both Oden and Pryzbilla provide these in abundance.)

7. On defense, ignore words and direct your eyesight to the ball. (Opposing Cleveland, LeBron James told me he would pull up for a jumper. I advanced upon him. Then James drove baseline with great speed. Both of my ankles gave way!)

8. The faster you begin an opponent’s blow-out, the more shots everyone will get.

9. Be polite and professional to everyone you play against. Then destroy them, for they wish to defeat you.

10. Practice shooting in a dimly-lit practice area with someone shouting unflattering threats at you. (I found this useful in Europe, where partial power outages were not uncommon.)

11. You may feel sad about snapping another team’s back with a clinch alley-oop or a clutching 3-pointer. But sadness is preferred to losing. And the winning will then bring happiness. (In the case of defeating the Lakers, the happiness will be most pronounced.)

12. Purple is not my color. (It may not be anyone’s color.)
