“Career Alternatives”
Reza Rasoli is not only a super-talented director, illustrator and animator, but his name is Reza Rasoli, and that, I submit, is a Top 10 name. His first entry to the #BTL Project is a tribute to the comedy stylings of Mr. Blake Griffin: professional basketball player by day, would-be comedian by night. All day long, Griffin dunks, writes jokes and retweets sitcom writers. That’s it.
Check out some of the comedy work I’ve done with Blake Griffin here, then check out more Reza at the Rezatron.

“The New Black Jesus”
Mink Couteaux has submitted to the #BTL project twice before, but his latest pays tribute to Kevin Durant’s summer basketball tour.
I created this graphic to honour Kevin Durant’s incredible summer. His tour de force this summer reminded me of the great Earl “the Pearl” Monroe’s street court domination as the mythical “Black Jesus,” so I personaly dubbed Durant the “New Black Jesus”
…and lucky you, he made a desktop version for our wallpaper page. Check it out here.

![“Bol”
Manute Bol was a proud son of the Sudan, whose father was a Dinka tribesman. His career on the court only allowed him to be the social activist, philanthropist and Sudanese freedom-fighter he fought to be off the court.
Bol was a naturally tall, almost 7’7” (he did not have a pituitary disease), blocked more shots than he scored points, and towards the end of his career became a 3-point sharp shooter. [watch here]

“Iverson over Lue”
Stay down, Tyronn Lue. There’s nothing up here but us ruthless killers.
After coming off the bench and brilliantly defending a white hot Allen Iverson in Game 1 of the 2001 NBA Finals, AI peeled back and pulled up, as Lue fell down. What the Answer did next, is immortalized by Maciej Bernat.
Watch the play here. It’s enough to make you say, “Oh, Tyronn!”
Of course Lue played a hand in keeping Iverson at bay during the 5-game series, helping the Lakers win back-to-back championships, but unfortunately, this may be what he’s remembered for in the years to come.

“Pistol”
Pete Maravich is a Got ‘Em favorite, and Parisian designer Maciej Bernat puts it down with the artwork above.
…and would you please click through for a gorgeous wallpaper, and even better quote:
“They don’t pay you a million dollars for two-hand chest passes.”
Classic Maravich, and the golden rule of gotemcoach.com.
I love this so much, I’ll be posting more of Bernat’s work for the BTL project the rest of the week. Until then, add him on twitter, and tell him he’s radical.
