Latest Brandan Wright News- He Bulked Up!

Hello my fellow warrior fans, its been a long time I should have never left you. A few weeks back I received a call from my friend studying in North Carolina and asked me to go visit. While I was out there she just so happen to invite me to a basketball game, knowing that I love the sport. To my surprise the basketball game that we were about to watch was the 2009 North Carolina Alumni game. Alot of current NBA players were there such as Vinsanity, Antawn and our/my favorite player Brandan "killed that s***" Wright.

As you all could imagine I was freaking the f*** out, I could not believe it. As for the game he was absolutely "freakinn" kids (love to Stuart Scott). It was blue team (that was his team) up against white team. Brandan did not start but was a major role in the game.

He entered the game in the first quarter with 6:50 left and looked a little bit bigger up top but what really stood out was he reallyyyyy got stronger at the base and legs. He hit three jumpers a little past the foul line, he had 3 or 4 jump hooks and a few dunks. The most impressive thing that I saw was that he was no longer getting bullyed around down lown, he was boxing out big guys like Haywood and some dude named Glover. He even showed some nastiness by grabbing Haywood from the jersey and slamming him to the floor to prevent a dunk. After the game was over the crowd stormed the court but I could not talk to Brandan, I couldn't find him amongst all the people.

I know most people wont beleive me, so I will post a transcript and pictures below: (pics come via NC website)

From the Dean Dome:

BW enters the game and immediately holds the block down against Brendan Haywood defensively. Haywood gets an open look at a dunk after BW helps out on the driving pg. BW says no, grabs Haywoods shoulders and throws him to the ground. Showing much improvement holding down the block against the bigger and more physical man. Although his upper body is only slightly bigger looking, his lower body looks bigger from my vantage point. Has no trouble boxing Haywood out.

Offensively he has cat like quickness with the ball and can get his shot off whenever he wants to against Haywood. He gets a couple of midrange jumpers to go off the dribble.

Antawn Jamison enters in place of Haywood. Jamison having trouble against the length and quickness of BW. BW gets a catch and finish and converts and impressive lefty running skyhook across the lane. That shot is unblockable, and so is his midrange j from the top of the key. These are 2 shots he can get whenever he wants.

The highlight of BW's game comes midway through the second half where he receives the screen and roll pass at the top of the key, takes one dribble, and throws down a lefty tomahawk over Jerry Stackhouse. It was a career ending dunk.

P.S. I could not post pics, but if you go to http://tarheelblue.cstv.com/view.gal?id=52875 you could check the pics out for yourself. There are about 4 or 5 pics of him.... I cant wait for this season.

Damn it Nelly you better play Brandan!!!!!!!
