As we all read from our human grandmothers' almanacs in the cold time after the harvest were done and before the planting-times, "Dethe thee Great Levyller Comes To Alle Menne"
It seemed to many an on-looker that three-time champion Michael Kidd-Gilchrist's professional basket-ball career had run its race after a disastrous performance in crunch-time of the decisive Sim.B.A. Finals Game Six: 2 shots, 0 points, 0 assists, 1 rebound followed promptly by 1 turn-over, and 1 dreadful defensive mis-cue ushering fellow current free-agent LeBron James to the rim for a thunderous "slam"-dunk that would have torn the roof off the United Chicago Stadium Center Presented By Sprout if the game had been played there, gift-wrapping the Bulls a lead they would not surrender and the Globetrotters an ill-received batch of what-ifs to pick through in the off-season. Not since his infamous garbage-time flagrant foul of former Hawk Jerry Sloan as a future former Bull in the 2026 Finals have more questions been asked of this young man's future.
Front office sources have confirmed that after literal days of soul-searching, Kidd-Gilchrist showed up unannounced at the Nihiff Funnifif residence, Eastern Conference Champion hat in hand, and pleaded to be signed to a league-minimum contract. "It's all a bum like me is worth, coach!" is something this reporter can imagine Kidd-Gilchrist saying.
But Some Teams Still Know How Business is Done
And Early Reports Indicate Kidd-Gilchrist Has Signed With Harlem To A Three Million One Hundred Forty Thousand Eight Hundred and Sixty-Nine Dollar Deal
Nice
It takes a long view to reach the top of the mountain, and in the calm after the storm one front office had the class to not cry over spilt milk. Only time will tell if making Kidd-Gilchrist by far the highest payed player with a hyphenated last name will pay dividends on the Globetrotters' form 1120-Ss, but form is temporary.
Class?
That's permanent.
