Cleanliness is next to Godliness is next to Huerterness. A charming kind of lobster, Ole Red plays with a smoothness and grace heretofore reserved for swans. Going into the draft, scouts had nothing to compare him to so they just went with the Rocky Mountains. This is a basketball player after your own heart. I aim that sentiment at every person in the world. When times are tough, seek out the Huerter. When you feel like you can’t go on, seek out the Huerter. When the load gets heavy and you feel that sick hum under everything and you can’t feel good no matter what you do, seek out the Huerter. Olympic flame status. Lit at all times. Burning at all times. Raining orange on the heads of the damned. Where does humanity go from here? The only direction is down. Goes without saying, but Huerter really is the peak we as a species have to offer, so much so he’s not really of this world at all. He exists in some other reality, graces us with his presence for 82 games a year, then heads back to the heaven from whence he came. We’re privileged to be alive right now because he’s playing basketball, and if you’re not deeply grateful for that then get out of my face, man. This is Young Thanos. The peppermint jackrabbit. When he was a boy, he would go door to door in his own neighborhood and challenge the man of the house to a fight. These were middle-aged dudes. Huerter was 7. Didn’t matter. Atlanta Rouge took on all comers. Never surrendered. Never lost. He beat hell into people and they thanked him for it. The New Beethoven of the NBA. A virtuoso, some kind of sunrise. So obviously an icon already, and yet still so young. 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
