What makes Wilcox arguably the Sonics best finisher since Shawn Kemp was patrolling the paint is not merely the frequency of his slams, but also their ferocity. Wilcox is able to dunk through traffic as well as anyone in the league because he attacks the basket so relentlessly.Maybe someone should pass that quote along to The Rash. Or staple it to his forehead.
"That's my aggressive side," Wilcox said. "I just want to go out there and take everything to the basket strong. Some of the dunks I do miss are because I'm going too hard to the basket. Me, I just want to finish everything; that's the best way to finish is to go hard."

Wilcox Rocks
Supersonics.com has a little propaganda article about our new favorite Sonic, Chris "Rocks Your Box" Wilcox:
Is it me, or is the best part of a dunk photograph the expressions of the players in the background? Kobe's bemused look is eerily similar to the one he used throughout the Denver rape trial, as if to say, "You think this is phasing me? Please."
ReplyDeleteAnd, in case you missed it, apparently Chris Wilcox' nickname is "Weezy," courtesy of Coach Hill.
ReplyDelete"Weezy" perhaps doesn't conjure up mind-blowing thunderdunks, but it's still better than "Wilco."
As a rabid fan of "The Jeffersons", not sure I'm feeling Wilcox as "Weezy".
ReplyDeleteKind of funny though
does anyone know of a good seahawks blog??
ReplyDeleteSea-who?
ReplyDeleteplease
ReplyDeleteI would like to propose the nickname "Count Dunkula", as has been done over at Sonics Central. After all, he is a bloodthirsty dunking monster.
ReplyDeleteSorry, man, but but "Count Dumb-as-Fuckula" doesn't work either.
ReplyDelete-Q
P.S. Dude, I am waitin' until the day he picks that natty cornrow shit out. I'll bet he ends up 7'2" with the 'fro.

If Wilcox is the second coming of the "Reign Man", then you could go with another weather related name:
ReplyDelete"Hail from above".
How about "Thor" since he loves the Thunder.
ReplyDelete"Hammering Man" - I like it.
ReplyDeleteHammering Man is pretty clever, man. Not bad at all...
ReplyDeleteBig, it's funny as f#^k *because* it conjures up images of breakfast cereal. You have a sense of humor, figure it out.
