Where Are They Now, 2009: Part 44
March 3rd, 2009
The results [result] are [is] in – one person likes these lists, no one said they didn’t, and everyone else absconded. That’s good enough for me, and the risk of alienating folks is minimal given that I seemingly have a readership of about 12 people, so here’s a long list of people called Robinson. – I don’t mean this in a harsh way, but I’m not sure of what Antywane Robinson has done to earn training camp invites in back-to-back seasons.

If Bra-Rob could up his three-point percentage from 32%, and his free throw shooting from 68%, he […]
