Shane Battier #31   |   Small Forward   |   Memphis Grizzlies

Height: 6-8       Weight: 220
Born: Sep 9, 1978 - Birmingham, Michigan
College: Duke
Draft: 2001 - 1st round (6th pick) by the Memphis Grizzlies

What can I say about Shane that I haven't said before? Shane has that "awe" factor. Whenever I catch him (in photos, on tv, outside his house-- what? wait that one's not right at all!), I just can't help but sigh... awe. But, it's a... shame that i don't see ... Shane on tv oll that much  becaues TNT and ESPN don't seem to see the need for fulfilling a hotness quota. But hey, all those losers on the Sixers - let's give them a ton of screen time.  I would like to say that thanks to the playoffs, I have gotten to see more of my favorite Grizz-guy, but you know, I don't really see him doing much as it is. I became intrigued and went to the Griz website, where I found a neat section that had pictures from every game they played this year. Much to my chagrin, Shane wasn't featured all that much.  I send a message to you, Battier. If you want to remain on the roster- you gotta get in the game!!1.

Sarunas Jasikevicius #3   |   Point Guard   |   Indiana Pacers

Height: 6-4       Weight: 195
Born: Mar 5, 1976 - Kaunas, Lithuania
College: Maryland
Draft: None

I tell you, trying to find pictures of attractive pacers actually looking attractive is hard feat. They're always contorting their faces into rather odd expressions, making my job of presenting them as attractive people all the more difficult. Still, Sarunas Jesikevicius (Saw-Roo-Nus  Jes-ik- eh-vi-chus), or "Runey" as the local Indianapolis market has dubbed him is quite the fellow to look at, at least in my own humble opinion. Since he's a rookie this year, I don't really know too much about him, besides the fact that he would look good on my couch. With that in mind, I went to visit Pacers.com, where they are known to have tons and tons of clips of stuff you really didn't need to know about your favorite players (anyone remember that "Dinner with Jeff Foster clip"?).  So, you can imagine my delight when I saw video entitled "60-seconds with Sarunas Jesikevicius," but unfortunately the evil Pacer dictators won't allow anoyne outside their inner circle to view the clip. ("This video feature is only available to fans in the Pacers area"). I'm hoping that it works next time I go visit Funk. Until then, I will have to wait for Runey's second year to gather more info about him, but things are looking bright with him in the picture.

"What?! A laker? on the AA Team? Why, I haven't been this outraged since Luke Walton made the cut on the 2nd team in 2004!" Hey, now calm down. This just goes to show that attractiveness transcends group affiliations. Man, what is it about young international players? Rounding out the last of our International Invasion is Sasha Vujacic, who is not, as you might infer from his first name, a girl, you ignorant ethnocentrists out there. I've actually had my eye on this guy since he first joined the league last year. Unfortunately, the Lakers didn't make the playoffs last year so I couldn't put... hmm, I really can't finish that sentence without feeling dirty. So long as Kobe's on the Lakers, it's tough for me to root for them. Vujacic is like the one speck of light in an otherwise bleak, depressing and ultimately, unwatchable team - or however close you can get to a 'team' when you have Kobe shooting for you. Either way, I can't imagine Bryant being a good influence on the kid. He'll be accused of rape by 2011. But in the mean time, let's bask in Sasha's attractiveness.
