"Come Back Like Jordan Wearin the 4-5" -Action Bronson

Wu - Tang Clan x Action Bronson x Terminology

"I was born to rep, you fuckin’ with a Hornets’ nest

Old shooters in the corner like Hornacek

Young boys that be handling the rock

Chris Paul, dish off, hammer in the sock"

Bonsonlini with a hockey assist here with the Hornets reference. Jeff Hornacek was one of the better outside shooters in NBA history. John Stockton would penetrate and if Karl Malone was not open he'd kick it to Jeff and indeed would snipe you with the corner three-point shot. "Old" is used well here as Hornacek played in the league for 14 years. Chris Paul is a combo guard however is an excellent distributor of the ball.

"Sickening, guaranteed made'em jump like Rod Strickland"


He is now known as an assistant coach for the University of Kentucky. A guy who has mentored point guards, Tyrek Evans, Derrick Rose, John Wall, Brandon Knight and Marquis Teague.


He was known as one of the most under appreciated point guards in NBA history. Led the league in assists one year and is 8th on the all time assists list.

 And the metaphor works because he had an incredible hesitation move.

Camay - Homeboy Sandman

One late night at work 3 years ago there were only four people in the building, me, two female co-workers and the night custodian. One of my colleagues came to my classroom and asked if I was planning on leaving any time soon. I told her yes, but that the night custodian was still there. I don't remember her response but I could sense that she was still leery of being there. I didn't understand her hesitance. To me, the night custodian was harmless. Just as I was attempting to make sense of her unease, my other colleague walked into the room and was posed with the same question. Before she could even mention not wanting to be there with just the custodian the second colleague almost finished her sentence. It was like she knew exactly what she was feeling. They shared a giggle and left. I left. It took me a while to understand what they understood.
