Some people call it garbage time, this guy called it "burn"

They called him Ty the tenacious under 2 minutes to play guy.  When Robbie Paulson would foul out at the end of the 4th quarter, everyone new it was Ty time.  Sprinting to the scoreboard with his junior varsity uniform on and brand new hardly used L.A. Gear Pumps that lit up when you ran, would bring Stormking fans to there feet even when they would be down 15-20 and the game against Lakota was far out of reach, Ty would inspire for that last 2 minutes, using up most if not all 5 of his fouls while knowing his role on offense, he would stand in the corner like a spotting up Steve Kerr without out any of the shooting capabilities or touches.

Kudo's to the days when hard play and complete lack of personal pride were the things role players were made of, its all too often you see players come off the bench in the last few minutes and they have an embarrassed or annoyed look on their face, not Ty the tenacious under 2 minutes to play guy, sure their would be several games in a row that he might not get in because Paulson managed to not foul out but he would be the first to sling the starters a towel and give a quick neck rub during timeouts to big Billy and the crew.

I only hope that our 4 winds team can play with that desire, reckless abandon and somewhat disturbing aggression.
