Household Names (Social Experiment)

[Saint Cy of JFC]

So it's been a trend lately to ask your GF/Wife to name 5 current NBA players. Putting this in the Utah Jazz section because it wont get viewed otherwise and it's fun. Also I told her to not name Jazz players because she will often watch games with me. The idea behind this is that the "Super Star" label is dumb as hell because people who dont watch basketball can barely name any NBA players.

I asked my girl and I got the following response

"The ball brothers lol I dont know their names. Patty Mills. Lebron James. Juan Toscano Anderson."

And the bonus lulz addition "I would have included Dwayne Johnson but I know he retired"

The bigger question is how the hell did you get a girlfriend?

 

[PresidioTrojan]

Where the hell did she pull Juan Toscano Anderson from?

Where the hell did she pull Juan Toscano Anderson from?

She's Mexican and JTA is the only Mexican player in the NBA.

Rudy Gobert
Donovan Mitchell
Joe Ingles
Ricky Rubio
LeBron James

Can you tell she lives with a Jazz fan?

Did she like Eduardo Najera?

I’ll ask my wife later but she could name a bunch.

That's why you got to ask them not to include Jazz players.

Here's what my wife came back with:

- what's his name okopoko (Giannis)
- Jaron Young (Trae)
- Lebron James
- Rudy Gobert
- Gordon Hayward

Others: the guy who plays for Denver (Murray), the guy who looks mean (still not sure), Andrei Kirilenko.

4 out of 5 are not Jazz players and the fifth one is getting traded today, I've been told.

My partner went with:

LeBron James
Steph Curry
Seth Curry
Draimon Greene
Rudy .... damn ... is his name Rudy? Golbert (and apparently thought he had a very distinctive scar on his head?)

I just asked some bimbo I met on Tinder. She said, Kapernick, Lebron, Jerry (?), Tom (?) and Kobe.

I'll ask my wife tonight.

And, HH mom on Thursday night.
