Oleksiy's English Lessons
So Wiz rookie Oleksiy "Opec" "Big Oily" Pecherov is getting some English tutorials from his teammates. The latest?
"I get buckets, son; I get buckets, son," he said about four thousand times after practice today.
And his teammates are subtly picking up Eastern European accents, too.
"No pass, always shoot all the time," Brendan Haywood said in faux Pecherovese.
The only other news I have to report is that Gilbert Arenas has a new gamer tag, something along the lines of "I'm a Cheater," but I'm not sure of the exact spelling.

"No pass, always shoot all the time," Brendan Haywood said in faux Pecherovese.
Big Oily responded with "Etan more heart with hole, than Brendan"

Oh my god! Gil is an HOV Violator...Just like roughly 50% of the people who drive in the HOV lanes every day.

I suspect the people who wail about how much money athletes make don't have to worry about people stuff like that on the Internets.
As for Pecherov, I'm not a fan of Big Oily. Stacey King's recent comparison of our boy Stewie offers a better option. And a commenter at Bullets Forever suggested my current favorite: Shaggy (he resembles the Scooby Doo character).
