Derek Anderson, the man, the myth, the legend


The Year 2050.

The Place, the Spurs NG.

marko jr.: Hey, why is this place so empty?

Marcus Kwan Jr. : The spurs suck. We haven't made the playoffs in almost 50
years. Who wants to talk about a lottery team?

Charlie Board Jr.: I wish we could return to the glory days.

Dave McNulla Jr.: Yeah, just like when we had the legendary Derek Anderson
on our team.

Village Idiot Jr.: Man, I saw some of footage of him playing. Can you
believe he held Kobe Bryant to 38 points a game?

Charlie Board Jr.: No way. You mean Kobe Bryant, the NBA's all-time leading
scorer?

Village Idiot Jr.: Yeah, that Kobe Bryant. I tell you, Derek Anderson must
have been quite a defensive player. They say no one could score against him.

Marcus Kwan Jr.: I heard during the 2001 playoffs, his arm was torn off and
they had to use a cybernetic replacement.

Charlie Board Jr.: They didn't have that type of technology back then, did
they?

Dave McNulla Jr.: No way! I heard they surgically reattached his arm!

Marcus Kwan Jr.:  You honestly believe that? Impossible.

marko Jr.: No way man, they did! He's a fast healer! There was no one else
like him!

Village Idiot Jr.: I heard he played with only one arm throughout the entire 
playoffs! They had to leave his other arm cryogenically frozen!

Charlie Board Jr.: Well, whatever happened, he was never the same player
after that injury. Everyone agrees that Derek would've surpassed Kobe as the
all-time leading scorer had he not been injured.

Village Idiot Jr.: Well at least we can still watch highlights of Derek
during his glory days! I heard he was able to play 5 different positions.

marko Jr.: Yeah, I heard he guarded both Shaq and Kobe at the same time! We
would've won that series had he not been injured.

Marcus Kwan Jr.: There'll never be another player like him. Hey guys, I'm
going over to the Derek Anderson Museum later today. Want to come!

Everyone: Sure, let's go!
