Did anyone not see Tim Maymon..come down all crazy high fiving Mo, DJO, and Buzz from behind the scorers table at the end of the game?  It was epic!!  Jimmy, Zar and DJO were hugging Buzz walking off the court..all of  a sudden Jimmy Butler says something..DJO hears it..looks toward scorers table..and turns and looks at Buzz and I could read his lips and puzzled look on his face saying to Buzz:  J-May's Dad?!!

Saw this on TV..if you Tivo'd go back and watch after Buzz shakes Lville hands..he does some fist pumps..then walks with Zar, JB and DJO..Look to sideline, follow buzz..and voila:  Tim Maymon!!

edit/update: It was not Maymon's dad, nor DJO's dad.  Read far down for NBE link.

are you serious?

[MU1984]

Saw that, but not 100% it was Maymon's dad.  Didn't look like him, but I could be wrong.

[LAZER]

I was wondering who that was.  If that was for sure him, that'd be great if they could bury hatchet and have a somewhat happy ending to this whole debacle.  Pretty bizarre though, given his previous comments.

are you serious?

100% serious..the look and expression on DJO's face was priceless..as was the high five between Buzz and Tim Maymon...EPIC!!

[ort5210]

Yeah I caught that too, but I wasnt sure, I thought it was my imagination

[Moonboots]

This thread needs pictures.

[Ready2Fly]

Can you confirm it wasn't Freeway?  That would be way cooler, and just as confusing for the team/coaching staff.  JMay's dad doing this is almost like a harbinger of doom.

[jaygall31]

I'd be shocked if it was his dad...

[Pakuni]

I saw that, and while it may have been Tim Maymon, I didn't think it was. Honestly, I thought it was DJO's dad, which is why he pointed the guy out to Buzz and led him that way.

[77ncaachamps]

I'll get the rumor mill started...

It was Tokoto's dad.

[MU1984]

The guy looked skinnier than Maymons dad from my vantage point, but heck, who knows.

[StillWarriors]

It was funny-I don't know what JMay's dad looks like, but that was my first thought. They all did look surprised to see whoever it was.

[VegasWarrior77]

We can only hope it was Tokoto's dad...!  Seriously, I saw this too and didn't recognize the man - but I saw the MU players pointing him out to Buzz.

I was a ways away in the student section and saw that. I thought the guy looked a little older than tim and had hair and glasses. It didn't look like him to me but who knows. All the players seemed pretty excited he was down there. Also saw Father Wild give Buzz an excited hand shake after as well.

[Blackhat]

Definitely not Tim Maymon.   Watched the DVR replay.

[Steve Buscemi]

It definitely resembled his dad.

[ChicosBailBonds]

Come on Ners, even us low basketball IQ guys know it wasn't Timmy Maymon.   

[Ready2Fly]

Come on Ners, even us low basketball IQ guys know it wasn't Timmy Maymon.   

You honestly don't have a high basketball IQ if you're the one leading the "wait and see on Buzz" charge.

Thanks Wareagle, from the descriptions sounds like Freeway to me too.

I guess we just need a screen capture from today to verify

[MU06CU10]

I saw that at the end...definitely NOT Maymon's dad...and definitely NOT Freeway. The guy looked more like a mini Kimbo Slice than either of those two!

[marq101]

I also just watched the DVR and after seeing Tim at a few high school games in the past it's definitely not him.  But to me it look like DJO might have said "My dad" but its hard to read his lips.

[GGGG]

That was neither Tim Maymon nor Freeway.

[NCMUFan]

Does this qualify as "stupid topic of the year".  Instead of saying it is Tim Maymon when clearly it wasn't, why not say who was the guy giving high fives with the team at the end?  Got to say posts like this really make the  message boards look like a congregating place for morons.
