Presented as hilarious, unto itself

Yo, check it yourself.



Don, that is your real card for life. The shitty thing is he was the first dopeness from NY, even before Pearl. And his nickname was Slick, which is right up there with Fast and Two Times as least trustworthy nicknames. Although Slick enjoyed actively improving the community and is still beloved in Seattle. Thourh you could argue that just means he's satisfying the requirement to be slick.

Why the card doesn't say Slick, who knows? Apparently everyone called him such. Maybe the Topps brass had something against Slick, like he slept with the V.P.'s daughter after she went to a game. Topps sure didn't do him any favors in the pose.

Also, look in the background of that card. I bet those Sonics teams sure had fun bake sales. 'Slick, who put the mescaline in the banana muffin again?' Then they all laugh because each did.

Slick was also the first dude to really rock the headband, not just wear it. Peep the decoration? Wayne Chism is gnashing.



Slick, in honor of your fine choices in personal ornamentation and Chris Paul actin' bitchmade and truly birthing his self into the next Isaiah, you're injury-addled but 'super good dude' career makes you Tonight's High Man— that and the new Cavs bums are sooo pissing me off. And Sonic love may be a dying endeavor, so....

... to an OG THM, SLICK WATTS!!!!
