Arron Afflalo's mom must have been terrible at spelling

The Blowtorch has been putting up caricatures of all the NBA rookies and recently put one up of one of our favorite Bruins Arron Afflalo!

Arron Afflalo

Strengths: good midrange game, able to contribute right away, strong defender
Weaknesses: not very athletic, won't be a big scorer, name is spelled way crazy

NBA Comparison (best-case): Shane Battier
NBA Comparison (worst-case): Keith Bogans
NBA Comparison (most likely): Raja Bell

I don't know if I agree with his assessment of Arron's potential (or the spelling of his name, it's not THAT crazy), but it's funny to see him and some other NBA rookies in caricature format.

Here are some other great caricatures of some familiar faces with links to some more commentary.

Aaron Brooks
Fellow Pac-10 Alum Aaron Brooks


Rudy Fernandez
God, this guy is ugly


Nick Young
They missed out on his buck teeth and a picture of Jordan Farmar in the background taking the SATs for him.


Spencer Hawes
Their quote is the best: "Spencer Hawes is tremendously boring looking"


Joakim Noah
Ahh! Children, cover your eyes!


Mike Conley Jr.
Mike Conley is just a happy guy. You know who else is just a happy guy? Joe Namath.


Al Horford
You know, I thought I was the only one that thought Horford had a funky shaped head. Guess I'm not alone anymore!


Oden and Durant

Commence the "Oden looks like he's 50" jokes.

Go Bruins!

Oden actually looks...
about 65 in that picture. These are pretty funny, thanks for positing them.
