Proof That Humpty Loves Risky Business? Not really.

Editor's note: Rickybrunson went ahead and ruined the fun (just kidding, P&T loves you.). This entire post is moot. Read the comments for the likely truth from the more observant Brunson. Barnesgasm and I will now get our ears checked.

Barnesgasm breaks this down a helluva lot better than I do, so I'll give you the short story. After putting up a monster summer league effort on his birthday, Renaldo "Humpty" Balkman, 23, of Planet Lovetron was interviewed by Gus Johnson and Walt Frazier. Humpty had this to say:

Did you hear that response to the party question? The first time I heard it, I thought he said "I'm going to get a couple wasted", which made little to no sense, so I paid no mind. Now that I give it a listen, though, it appears Renaldo is saying "I'm going to get lifted right now with Green/e", which may be a reference to summer league gunner Brian Greene (who, to be fair, looks more apt to coach travel soccer than to blaze), or simply "green", as in marijuana. Maybe he's joking. Maybe we're misunderstanding him. Or maybe this is proof that Humpty does, as we all imagined, love the reefer. The fact that he manages to say "thank you" about 37 times in less than a second only helps our case. It should be noted that I, for one, took Balkman for a pot-smoker not because of his dreadlocks, but because of his expression, which alternates between "giggly" and "dazed". No more, no less.

I don't know if I was clear enough, but go read about this at Son of Dippin. In fact, you might as well just read SoD instead of this blog. I know I do.

So...
That just means that he's "lifting" with his conditioning coach.  I'd assume based on their job position that they're both good "lifters".  We have no way to confirm whether or not they were lifting or "lifting".  Although I think it's safe to assume that they smoked but didn't inhale.

Dear Rickybrunson
Fuck you.
Obviously I'm joking, but can we, like, delete that comment? I spent like 20 minutes on that post, and then I blackmailed Seth into linking to me. Don't worry, the dogs are fine, Seth. For now. (dun-dun-DUN!!)
Oh, he's just going to get a couple of weights. Man, fuck you guys. fuck you.
Look, we all know Renaldo likes to get high. I know that, my friend who is also friends with Renaldo Balkman knows that, Ricky B knows that, 2Pac had hidden messages about Renaldo smoking weed about on his latest album. (It might be DOO-DOO!) He'll say it on tv soon enough.

I always feel guilty about making the joke in the subject, and that's why write dumb shit like this.

listening closely to hidden messages in 2pac songs have trained me to be able to decipher the most mumbled and inaudible audio.
