CLASSIC. I think Brian Cook will now be a 6th man of the year candidate. It's like telling Keanu Reeves that he gets Doritos for every movie he makes where he plays someone who is confused.

By chance was it a younger dude, eavy set with blonde hair and a buzz cut?

Cook is worthy of the #34 jersey.

He should only shoot 3's. He's worse than Garrity at layups.. but he had that nice reverse one today

If there were only 4s, Cookie could own 'Toine at those. :bowdown:

Jeez, I just observed the jersey from the back and from a distance. He was down by the chute waiting for Cookie to finish his post-game interview and go past.

The Orlando Sentinel gave the Cookie Monster an article today.

Brian Cook is like instant grits. He isn't as good as the real thing, but he gets to the table quickly.

And Magic Coach Stan Van Gundy is beginning to like that.

When Cook entered the game late in the first quarter Sunday, it took just 12 seconds before he hit his first 3-point basket. It also took him just three minutes to commit two personal fouls, making his presence felt immediately at both ends of the court.

Stan has really molded Cook into a very good sub. Instant offense.

Cook isn't shy about putting up shots.

I don't mind it as long as a decent % go in.

Something tells me though, that Cook is soon to revert to that other Cook we saw.

I just thinks its hilarious how on fire he can get. If he makes just one, he can pull up from 32 feet with a hand in his face and bury it.

He is a shooter...they all go through hot streaks and cold streaks. Soon he will cool down or even go cold and everyone will jump on him asking what happened.
