Oh that Danny, Part Two



Remember how Danny Fortson fouled out in just six minutes the other night? Well, that's not all he did - he also managed to injure himself, forcing him to miss Wednesday night's loss to the Pistons. Truly a remarkable individual.

I love Danny, but if you missed as much work as Da Fort has in the past month (for various bizarre reasons) would you still have a job?

Detroit, part two

The Sonics are playing the world champion Detroit Pistons as we speak, er, write. The Sonics beat them last week, so here's hoping they can do it again!

Oh that Danny!



Something amazing happened during last night's 99-93 victory over the Chicago Bulls, and it wasn't Reggie Evans grabbing 19 rebounds in 27 minutes. Nope. It was our man, Danny Fortson, wrangling a near NBA record six fouls in just six minutes!

Here are the quickest exits in NBA history, courtesy of the Seattle PI:
12/29/97 Bubba Wells, Dallas, 3 minutes
3/12/56 Dick Farley, Syracuse, 5 minutes
12/22/00 Mark Bryant, Dallas, 5 minutes
3/15/05 Danny Fortson, Seattle, 6 minutes*
*Several other players have collected six fouls in six minutes
We here at Supersonicsoul would like to salute Da Fort on this magnificent achievement. Huzzah!
