"Boogs can see like 12 plays ahead. I've been around a long time, and he's by far the best point guard I've played with. You don't understand how fast he is. There's no doubt in my mind that he can play in the NBA." - Anthony Heyward, AKA "Half-Man, Half-Amazing" (source: http://www.streetballin.net/players/booger.html)
