Video: Mo Evans reverse punks Cheikh Samb, bench explodes

By J.E. Skeets

Maurice had a big ol' Samb, his jersey was white as snow
And everywhere that Maurice went, that Samb was sure to throw
He followed Mo to the rim one day, which was against the rule
It made the Hawks bench laugh and play, to see poor Samb get schooled
"Why does Samb love Mo so much?" The eager readers cry
"Why, Mo loves Samb, oh don't you know," it gets him on Ball Don't Lie ...

    Dear, "Joe the GM",
    How does that 2006 trade look now?
    Sincerely,
    Mo Evans

    Hm hmmm....
    Maurice had a big ol' Samb, his jersey was white as snow
    And everywhere that Maurice went, that Samb was sure to throw
    He waited for Mo at the rim one day, which was against the rule
    It made the Hawks bench laugh and play, to see poor Samb get schooled
    "Why does that Samb test Mo so much?" The eager readers cry
    "Why, Mo loves Samb, oh don't you know," it gets him on Ball Don't Lie ...
    You know, nice effort. But he was there before him. If someone ever followed somebody else to the rim, that was Jason Maxiell and Kevin Garnett. We know who ate the baby. (Reminder: http://technorati.com/videos/youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D2cZ5Y3_sWh0)

    Dude just won himself $1 from Marvin Williams, who bet he would be the first to dunk on Samb.

    Now he just needs to make a consistent jumpshot, and then I'll take him seriously.

    Jiri Welsch? Yes. That guy from Incubus. Sometimes. Nash? Rarely. BJ Novak? That's a new one.

    Yeah, he sure ran down the court like nothing happened. I guess Mo doesn't get into taunting.

    too bad his jumpshot was bad....and his defense was suspect...or else maybe he'd still be in detroit.

    Come on, up to bench celebration the Hawks are still competing with the C's? Bench reaction after Bill Walker's facial still tops the list.

    Why does Mo love Samb so much?
    Because he was traded for him to the Lakers
