We may never know who Kirk Hinrichreallyis… at least personality-wise. Maybe that can mostly be summed up with three concepts: Basketball, Iowa, Coach’s Son. His game is beyond vanilla, but it isn’t flashy either. He is Kirk Hinrich… under the radar, yet completely noticeable.
Kirk is even more noticeable now that he plays with glasses. They now encapsulate his‘flair’… as much as a pair of Oakley spectacles can I suppose. But who is he? (In those glasses.)
On a recent ESPN Daily Dime chat session, friend of the blog and a proprietor ofHoopSpeak, Beckley Mason, likened Hinrich’s glasses look to that of a character in the movie,Team America: World Police.
I can see it… and yes, I do wish Hinrich’s shades had a yellow tint to them. Him smoking a cigarette during the Wizards’ wacky newpre-game routineinstead of participating would be a blogger’s dream bonus. (And yes, Hinrich probably has good reason to appear to not like a routine that involves players throwing their teammates (the game’s starters) out of a huddle before games… folks can get hurt that way.)
My first thought regarding Hinrich’s glasses went back to NBA big man, journeyman,Danny Schayes… who didn’t wear glasses his entire career either. Here are a couple pictures of Danny viathe Internet.
Pretty distinguished company, in the least.
