Mad Rhythm

"I just can't understand why boyz won't take me serious?"

Hilary Clinton once said, “You’re not a leader if you haven’t been elected.” Max de Pree, the famous businessman, gave it to boyz like this, “The first responsibility of a leader is to define reality. The last is to say thank you. In between, the leader is a servant.” Then the moral and social philosopher, Eric Hoffer, shut the building down with, “The leader has to be practical and a realist, yet must talk the language of the visionary and the idealist.”

Now on some real talk playboy, does any of that describe Dwight Howard? He hasn’t been elected, doesn’t define reality, isn’t practical and doesn’t talk the language of a visionary. So why on earth would Mike D’Antoni or anybody else for that matter look to him for leadership?

During his exit interview a few weeks ago with Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak he expressed that he felt marginalized by D’Antoni as the coach often looked to Kobe and Steve Nash for leadership and suggestions and discounted his voice. Duh??

Now as dull as D’Antoni is as a coach he’s not stupid playa. I’ve been calling Dwight Howard Buster Brown for darn near 3 years now for a reason. He’s a big joke in the locker room and at dinner tables all over America. Why would D’Antoni look to him for leadership when he’s got the Black Mamba and Nash sitting right in front of him?

This dun can’t make up his mind about what he’s gonna order at McDonald’s bruh! He’s the cat that holds up the line every time only to order the same freakin’ thing. He hee hawed around with Orlando for two seasons eventually getting Van Gundy fired only to bounce anyway.  Then he shows up in LA acting like a Big Baby Huey goofing around all of time.

Before the game against the Pacers when Kobe’s ankle was as big as a melon about 6 weeks ago this cat is running down the hall with his shirt off goofing around with the ushers. I saw that with my own eyes bruh! Your leader is probably not going to play so it should be the next man up mentality and this fool is in Romper room an hour before tip-off.

Then when they finally did make the playoffs he gets ejected on purpose because they were getting the brakes beat off of them and he was tired of bending over.

So why would anybody look for leadership out of this clown? More importantly, why would he fix his mouth or his mind, like Big Momma used to say, to think that he was a leader?

The Lakers were already dull going in and then struggled all season long to find their stride. They limped into the 8^th spot to barely make the playoffs and he think’s that some dun would look to him to lead? All Buster Brown can do is lead boyz to the cafeteria to eat bruh or lead the Derrick Rose to the next Cotton Candy festival.

Playing in LA for the Lakers is the most premiere place in the world that a professional basketball player could ever want to play and this dun is still thinking about it? Not to mention, they’ve got $30.7 million more to offer him than anybody else and he’s indecisive bruh?

It’s like Beyonce’ giving you mad rhythm at the club but you don’t want to commit too early in the night because you think you can do better. When the joint let’s out you’re still in the parking lot trying to make up your mind while she’s jumping in the ride with her cousin going to Waffle House and all of the other chicks have linked up with somebody else.  Again I ask, why would anybody including ole dull D’Antoni mistake this clown for a leader?

If a million people were rushing the gate the leadership sensor would go off as soon as he got close enough. They would pull that dun out of line, strip search him and arrest him for fraud. In order to be a leader you’ve got to be willing to lead playboy and not stand around cracking jokes when boyz need you to be serious.

Henry Kissinger said it best with, “A leader does not deserve the name unless he is willing occasionally to stand alone.” All Lakers fans should be praying that this cat doesn’t sign with them because if he does it’s gonna be dull for a while in LA bruh! Stop me when I start lyin’!

Holla At Ya Boy!
