Alright, let’s talk about this Brian Williams fella and the NBA, you know? I heard some things, seen some things, and I’m gonna tell ya ’bout it, the way I see it. Don’t expect no fancy words or nothin’, just plain talk, okay?
So, this Brian Williams, first off, they say he changed his name to Bison Dele. Why folks do that, I dunno. Sounded like a good enough name to me, Brian Williams. But hey, to each their own, right? This fella, he played in the NBA, bounced around like a rubber ball, seems like. He wasn’t no superstar, not like them fellas everyone knows, but he played. He was there.
They say he was a “journeyman.” That’s what the smart folks call ’em. Means he went from team to team, never stayin’ put for too long. I reckon that’s a hard life, always packin’ your bags and movin’ to a new city. But he kept at it, this Brian Williams, or Bison Dele, whatever you wanna call him.
- He played for a bunch of teams, see. I can’t remember ’em all, but there was a few.
- One time, he even played with the Bulls. Yeah, them Bulls, the famous ones. But it was just for a little bit at the end of the season, not a big deal or nothin’.
Now, some folks say he was a good player, a solid player. They say he didn’t make many mistakes. That’s important, you know? In basketball, just like in life, if you don’t mess up too bad, you’re doin’ alright. He was what they call a “reserve guard,” meaning he didn’t start the games, but he came in off the bench to help out. Like a good neighbor, always there when you need ’em.
And then, there’s the sad part. Real sad. They say he disappeared. Gone. Poof! Just like that. And they think… well, they think somethin’ bad happened to him. Out on the sea, they say. Murdered, that’s what they say. By his own brother, no less. Can you imagine? Your own flesh and blood. Makes you sick to your stomach, it does.
His girlfriend, she disappeared too. Serena, her name was. Young thing. Just gone. It’s a terrible story, a real tragedy. All that talent, all that life, just… gone. Makes you think, don’t it? Makes you appreciate what you got, ’cause you never know when it might be taken away.
They talk about some “efficiency rating” with this Brian Williams fella, a real high one. Forty, they say. In 2018. But what does that even mean? Numbers, numbers, numbers. I tell ya, sometimes the numbers don’t tell the whole story. This fella, he was more than just numbers. He was a person, with a life, a story, even if it ended too soon and too sad.
And there’s another Brian Williams, plays now, it seems. Not the same one, mind you. This one, they say he’s missin’ games, somethin’ about bein’ frustrated. Coach Doc Rivers, he understands. Well, I understand too. It’s hard when things don’t go your way, when you’re hurtin’ or feelin’ down. But life goes on, you gotta keep pushin’ forward, just like that first Brian Williams, movin’ from team to team, keepin’ on keepin’ on.
So, that’s the story of Brian Williams, or Bison Dele, as far as I can piece it together. An NBA player, a journeyman, a man who disappeared too soon. It ain’t a happy story, but it’s a story worth tellin’. Makes you think about life, ’bout family, and ’bout how precious it all is. And it makes you remember the name, Brian Williams, even if there’s a couple of ’em playin’ this basketball game.
And this new Brian Williams, he’s a good guard too, they say. One of the best coming off the bench. Well, good for him. Hope he stays safe, hope he has a long career. And I hope he remembers the other Brian Williams, the one who didn’t get that chance. We should all remember him, and maybe say a little prayer for his soul.
So there you have it. That’s all I know ’bout this Brian Williams and the NBA. Not much, maybe, but it’s somethin’. And sometimes, somethin’ is all you need. It’s a story of basketball, of life, and of loss. And it’s a story that stays with you, long after you’ve heard it.
