Biography: Malcolm never liked basketball that much. All throughout high school and college everyone insisted he join the team due to his inhuman jumping ability. He was adamant about not playing basketball because it was a stupid, boring waste of his time.

Instead choosing to go into Communications. After college life wasn't going too well. He had finally gotten a job at a local call center in Beaverton when he was laid off after 3 months. Falling into a deep depression his mother told him to get some exercise to cope. So he went and bought a basketball and found a small court in North Portland to play basketball.

After about an hour of Malcolm throwing the basketball at the hoop a large black escalade breaks down right in front of that shabby court. Out of the vehicle step Nate McMillan, Joel Pryzbilla, Greg Oden, and Steve Blake. Malcolm didn't have a clue who these people were of course so he didn't give a damn. After calling a tow truck Nate turned to Malcolm and said, "Hey you want to play some basketball?"

"Uh...sure." Malcolm said. With that Joel, Greg, and Steve tore off their dress suits (because they were tear away dress suits which is standard issue for all basketball players in order to be able to play at any moment) revealing their Blazer Jerseys.

"You guys part of some sort of club?" Malcolm asked. "Yeah kinda." Greg said laughing.

The rest of this story has been twisted by many retellings since that day. Some claim Malcolm blocked Greg Oden so many times Greg began to think about quitting basketball and had to go through 8 months of therapy. People say Joel Pryzbilla was dunked on so badly and so many times by Malcolm that he spent 2 months in an asylum and changed his name, opting to remove the y and z. Steve Blake went missing for 9 days after that game which has been proven as there are reports of him eating out of garbage cans in downtown Portland and yelling something about defense and nutrition.

Whatever the story was Malcolm completely annihalated those Blazers on that fateful rainy day. It was raining and thundering too, did I mention that? A lot of rain and thunder. It was pretty epic. It was an easy choice from there for Nate and the Blazers to sign Malcolm for the league minimum 8 dollars an hour (it's the economy).

Malcolm did very well that season and is starting to like basketball a lot more now.

Scouting Report: DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES ATTEMPT TO BLOCK ANY OF MALCOLM'S DUNKS. His jump shot is very weak from 15 feet out. Has a 60 inch verticle - that is not a typo.

  3. When the money starts rolling in you'll be the first to get a cut of about...20%.

    Which will be exactly 23 cents.

  4. By the way it's nice to talk to you again. Or at least see evidence of your existence.

    It's been 13 years. This is bizarre.
