YouTube Goodness: Z-Bo's Life

I can't believe I've never seen this before, but J.E. Skeets turned up an entertaining (albeit lengthy) video filmed by the people behind Put Me N Coach chronicling a day in the life of Zach Randolph. Enjoy.

Some thoughts:

Given the weather and Zach's comments to the media (which sound like they could be in reference to the lawsuit), this sounds like it's from the late summer/early fall, either before the season started or early on in the season.
I'm pretty sure this Joe Johnson chap knew who was gonna be behind that door. He's not fooling me.
What the hell is a man that big gonna do with a piano that small?
Who knew Zach Randolph could pong?
Did you catch Jerome James sporting a Damon Jones-esque mohawk? Does anybody remember seeing that? I don't think I do.
I wish we got full footage of the Simon Says game. Marbury's giddiness while dancing and ineptitude in following instructions is sort of surreal to watch. Who do you think won that game?

Hope you enjoyed. Some discussion of the Knicks' managerial future is next.

Amazing...

Wow, a 10 minute video I could actually watch. Great stuff (Skeets is the best).

My thoughts:
-Why do these videos always have that "creeping up on the house" scene in the beginning? Especially when it's followed by the "wave beckoning the cameraman/viewer to come closer". Too campy.

-Honestly, now that you mention it... I only know Jerome James because of his photo on the website. Having never seen him play (sorry, I missed those two minutes), he could be Asian for all I know.

-My thoughts while watching the Simon Says game footage were exactly the same as what you wrote. Lord I miss the Summer of Stephon. That's what I'm going to call my book on these Knicks, if I ever write one - The Summer of Stephon.

-I spent the whole Zach Randolph ping pong game against the kid from Make-A-Wish wondering if Zach was going to pull a Dave Chappelle on the kid, and just totally whup his ass while talking trash. Zach actually comes off as a really nice, chill guy. If only there were more of these videos out there of NBA players, it might help the league's image problem.
