Kroon
left a legacy behind him when he left the Cutters to take up a second job
in addition to the day job he had already. We here at DC Magazine have taken
the liberty to compile a list of Mike's outstanding achievements as a Cutter,
along with the most memorable. Here are our top 5:
1.
Mike shares the Olympic spirit as he is hit hard for the foul on the
break, then goes for the extended long soccer-dive role into the cafeteria
wall.
2. The Kroon spots up, and with a minor
irritation crossover, leans into Pappadum, cops an elbow to the ribs,
and bangs the big 3.
3. Various high risk - low percentage
drives finished with improbable unorthodox shots and a spine-tingling
hair-raising thud, as Mike belly-flops unbraced into the timber.
4. The soccer belly-flop. After completing
one such shot, the Krooniculous leaps high into the air, throwing
his fists and attempting a soccer dive and slide. Upon realising his
mistake, cartoon-like, typically he does not brace himself for the
land, going arse over and accumulating a few injuries in the process.
5. MK gets hot and lights up for 19 points,
a franchise-record at the time, including 5 straight 3-pointers in
the first half. |
