There are some things as a child you hear that just stick with you forever. For some reason one line my dad told me when I was probably nine years old has stuck with me until this day. Rarely do I ever think about it, but tonight I did.
Michael Cage dominating the the paint like a real man. He was known as “The Windex Man” for his pension of rebounding or keeping the glass clean.
I was shooting hoops at the RAC tonight with my buddy Spencer. We were just messing around and he was working on his bank shot and I said the line that my dad said to me 22 years earlier.
“You have to shoot the bank shot like Michael Cage.”
Not Tim Duncan, whom is probably the best bank shot artist of our era. I told him to shoot the bank like Michael Cage.
Cage spent seven years in Seattle (88-94) and was never really known for his offensive game. He only scored 20+ points eight times as a Sonic, scoring 24 points three times. All those games came in the calendar year of 1989. He arguably had the meanest Jheri Curl in the history of the game.
