Sean's "Renegadies"

Finally, the moment you've all been waiting for...my "Renegadies." I do not watch the Office quite like Johnathan, but we wanted to do some form of NBA awards when the season was over and here we are. Hopefully I can beat him in page views because I know that will keep him up at night. Here are my "Renegadies":

Individual Renegadies 

THE MOST RANDOM SPONSORSHIP AWARD sponsored by the Washington State Flag : Nik Stauskas, Sacramento Kings (BUT NOW MY 76ERS).


What was a media blip turned into a nickname for Mr. Stauskas and he and the Kings ran with it. Sauce Castillo is the nickname, and the Kings even made a hot sauce for a promotional night. It is random, but it really gets the people going, and I cannot wait to yell this every time he hits a three next year for my 76ers!

THE WORST STAR-PLAYER INTERVIEW AWARD sponsored by Jim Harbaugh's Interview on The Herd: Derrick Rose, Chicago Bulls.

You know that person who is just painfully awkward and makes you feel awkward if you even tell them to "have a good day"? Yeah that is Derrick Rose. Reporters should be paid double when they interview this guy. I sometimes I wonder if he talks to his own kid. He hit a ridiculous game winning shot in the Playoffs and reacted like this:


Anyways... Star players usually have personalty and I usually enjoy their interviews, not the case for an emotionless D-Rose.

MOST RIDICULOUS HAIR DUE AWARD sponsored by #STOPTHEKNOT: Evan Fournier, Orlando Magic


Few things in life piss me off more than a man bun, but do not even get me started on these ponytail man buns. Like seriously Evan? Just shave your head, I'll pay for the haircut and the gas it takes you to get there. On a more serious note please check out the link above as these two brave gentlemen are trying to save the world one haircut at a time. #STOPTHEKNOT

All-Renegade Sports Teams

THE #SQUAD TEAM (Players you want on your side when you're about to walk into a fight):

C Kendrick Perkins, Cleveland Cavaliers.
Not entirely sure what skills Perkins brings to the court other than his six fouls and his loud mouth. He has put his eerie similarity to Shrek behind him and has carved a career as center on quality teams in this league. All I know is he scares me and I would run (not very fast but I would run) for the hills if he cussed at me.


F Kevin Garnett, Minnesota Timberwolves
Yelling. There is just so much yelling when you describe KGs game, and it's terrifying. He may be that guy who does all the talking and no fighting, but, IDK I want him on my squad.

F Matt Barnes, Los Angeles Clippers
First off, his head always seems to be sweaty and shiny. This guy is a bad dude who looks like Bruno Mars' evil brother. His shot can be inconsistent but I doubt his fighting is inconsistent, and plus he has a lot of tattoos so he makes the cut.

G Lance Stephenson, Charlotte Hornets
This dude is just really intimidating to me. He is from New York, has recorded his own rap song, and blows in people's ears - I will never trust someone who blows in people's ears. When it comes down to it, if someone steals my champagne in the club, I want Lance to go get it back for me.

G Patrick Beverley, Houston Rockets
He's a scary looking dude and most people see him as a dirty player after what he did to Russell Westbrook. Sometimes dirty wins a fight, though, and that's we are doing here, right? My dawg fought LeBron James and that is more than enough to get him on the squad. When we are in the club with our homies, I'll be keeping my head on a swivel to make sure he doesn't dive at my knee.

ALL-FAVORITE TEAM (My favorite players from the season)

G Chris Paul, Los Angeles Clippers.
I just love the fire that he plays with and his do whatever it takes attitude. His performance in Game 7 against the Spurs this year was just awesome. Been a huge fan ever since he scored 61 points for his grandfather in high school.

G Kyrie Irving, Cleveland Cavaliers.
Uncle Drew is the man and his handles are out of this world. His handles got like this from learning to dribble the ball while it was in a plastic bag(!). I can only afford sandwich bags and basketballs can't fit inside them so I guess I'm stuck writing this blog.

F Paul Pierce, Washington Wizards
The Truth. I love this guy's drive, every time he steps on the court he leaves it all out there. Most people can't handle the Truth, but I see him as the OG of NBA basketball. What he did in the playoffs this season was special.

F Kevin Durant, Oklahoma City.
Durant is a threat anywhere inside of half court to get buckets and that is why I love him. He is humble and hard working and if he stays healthy he could go down as the league's all time leading scorer. Also a huge fan of KD and his backpack swag.

G Steve Nash, Phoenix Suns.
I know he technically retired a Laker but everyone will remember him as the floppy haired guy on the Suns. Nash is my all time favorite player and he changed the NBA with the help of Mike D'Antonio. Number 13 is the reason I fell in love with basketball at a young age and I am sure many other kids were inspired by Nash's on-court genius as well.


And that's a wrap for my highly anticipated Renegadies. Hopefully, you all enjoy them and that is that. Feel free to comment below.
