What's G?

I was there when Greivis tied a school record by dropping 15 dimes in the NCST game last year.

I was there when Greivis recorded the first triple double at Maryland in 22 years in an upset of #3 UNC last week.

But tonight, his 33PTS 2REB 5AST effort in a much needed road win at NCST was his sickest performance ever.

Sure, it was over a weaker team than UNC, but with his team sitting on an ever thinning bubble that could burst at any time, the Terps' best player put his team on his back and carried them to another crucial W. The exclamation point, a pointless buzzer beater to give him 33 and push the margin of victory to 11, pissed off Wolfpack fans and had Steve and I jumping off the couch in excitement. How much balls does that take to dribble up the court and take a buzzer beater on the road when you already have the game won? So the question comes up again, "What's G?"

G is HUGE balls. G is enormous balls. G is Greivis-sized balls. Thank you, Greivis, for starting the week off with a bang.
