Arriving in Nines

Possibly overlooked, Josh Howard isn’t under-styled.

Quietly, Josh Howard has always been doing his thing. From a successful high school career to being named ACC Player of the Year as a senior at Wake Forest, the North Carolina native leaves his mark at every level. Yet, somehow, he slipped to 29th in the 2003 NBA Draft, where the Mavs snagged him. Maybe if there was a remix things would change this time around.—Adam Fleischer

    There are players that keep it 100, then there is A.I., S-Jax, and J-Ho. They’re in that 150 range.

    I definitely slept on those AF1′s. I remember holding a pair of those and contemplating whether I should get ‘em. Kind of regretting it now.

    Brad Long should know his name is J-5. At least say Josh before saying J-Ho. He really gets the worst of this 1st Initial and abbrev surname.

    Well at least nobody calls Chris Bosh, C-Bo.
