YouTube Thursday Filler Week 2 Leon Powe Edition

I think that with two huge decisions (Judge and Anderson) coming down next week, we should have a lot of non-filler material coming in.  But hey for now, let's look at Big 4-4, Leon Powe!  Now, he is Big 0.  Helping evil win.  Oh well, you can't pick which team drafted him (which technically was the Nugs, IIRC).  And he's doing a great job, even with Doc Rivers yanking his playing time around.

Let's get this party started with this sweet dunk:


Star-divide

Now that this party has been started, here's a video interview with Powe after that Oregon game in the 2006 Pac10 Tourney.  God, that was such a SICK game.  Oregon kept hitting every huge shot, but Cal hit their FTs (esp. Ubaka).

Another interview with Powe:

And finally, nothing Da Showe-related.  This is the Cal dance team's version of that incredibly sweet Call On Me Video by Eric Prydez.  Make sure your wife and/or girlfriend is out of the room first.  If you haven't seen the music video already, GO SEE IT.  Here's Cal's version:

My first memory of Powe

Before he hit Cal was hearing some controversy over whether or not he was actually just 6’4”. Seems pretty clear now that he isn’t, but I’m not sure where that misinformation came from.

I'm still wondering why the Nets didn't draft Leon Powe.

Dang! Now I'm torn

Curse you TnH! Thanks to your Powe tribute, I can’t decide which is my favorite Cal pro player now – Marshawn or Leon. Marshawn is a “fresh of breath air”, but Leon helps kids in school. On the other hand, Marshawn is having some legal difficulties, but then Leon plays for the Celtics. You can’t spell Power without Powe, but then Marshawn’s nickname is BeastMode (quite possibly the greatest nickname ever). Aaaghh! Who should it be?

Marshawn and it’s not even close.

Leon Powe tied the game last night as part of Boston’s 24 point comeback. As usual, instrumental to bringing the Cs back in the greatest comeback ever. Go Powe!

He only had like 9 minutes, though. Why does Doc keep yanking his playing time around? I don’t get it!
