    A basketball math lesson

    So...

    We've been learning about percentages, and how to find them in math. Of course, a perfect way to teach this is using shooting percentages!

    So, the students got a chart of basketball players and their shooting, and had to make them into percentages...

    As a visual aid, I drew each player as we did the problem.

    Thought I would share... can you name those players?

    Number 50 in the middle has to be Hansblahblah. The bugged out eyes give it away.

    Ash,

    Your rendition of (Tyler Hansbrough?, #50) makes him look like he's got exophthalmos. I'm not sure if I spelled that correctly. = big eyes.

    And your point is...?



    BTW, it was very satisfying, for some reason, to explain that Jordan is not only a huge cigar smoker, but also a massive gambler.

    What are you talking about?! He was hacked while in the act of flipping the ball toward the rim while flailing to the ground... 10 free throws for #50.
