It's 2k9 now and I need 2 enhance my personal brand. I'm just a 'regular' dude from Texas [via Wisconsin]. I'm rlllly authentic, and my agent said that's why I 'don't play.' I'm too 'authentic' for the people of Los Angeles, I think. Los AngeBros don't fish. I luv 2 fish for fish. Who is the 'real' Chris Mihm? I don't want 2 b 2 mainstream, but I don't want 2 b 'fishing Bro' n e more either. My Bros...

by Brett Pollakoff Filed under: Bucks , Lakers , NBA Rumors With Jordan Farmar out for the next couple of months after having surgery to repair a torn meniscus, there have been discussions about whether the Lakers will look to make a move to bring in a backup point guard. The pickings are pretty slim out there at that position -- just ask the Suns . But if this rumor is to be believed, it would appear...

It's not unusual to confuse Nick Collison and Chris Mihm. They're both mostly irrelevant big white guys who share a passing resemblance to Adam Levine . Per request , here are their only differences, explained by handy chart:

Before he was a Laker, Chris Mihm was a Texas Longhorn. Which makes him, like most Longhorn fans right about now, pretty angry at the treatment their football team received from the BCS. Last week, the BCS computers jumped Oklahoma...

After three surgeries and countless frustrating moments because of right ankle problems, he says he s fit and playing above the rim again. There was a time when Chris Mihm was the Lakers' starting center, when he was athletic and mobile.

For Chris Mihm, the season begins with renewed hopes of a healthy campaign. Unfortunately, Mihm's been down this road many times since a devastating, multiple surgery requiring 2006 ankle injury, one that's prevented him from stringing together a sizable stretch of games. But Mihm was able to get some run during the tail end of the year, perhaps indication of a potential light at the end of the tunnel....

Both were seldom used big men: Might as well group them together and conserve the Internet's version of paper, right? We'll start with Chris Mihm, for whom I debated simply linking last season's report card and calling it a day. He may have stepped on the court this year, but the end result was basically 2007's story. A nasty 2006 ankle/foot injury preventing headway into regaining his old form. Mihm...

Like Chris Mihm, Ariza lost a lot of time this season to injury, and like Mihm, he'll be exercising his player option to stick around another year. Ariza expresses a couple times how much he loves playing in LA in front of friends and family. In other news: He'll be getting another MRI on his foot, just to make sure everything is truly fine. He's feeling no pain- definitely important to note- so this...

No surprise, the majority of the time Mihm spent talking to the media centered around his health. The good news is that he finally feels that he's over the hump, and can spend the summer training and working himself back into the sort of condition he was in before the injuries to his ankle and foot. From a basketball standpoint, the last two seasons have been "lost," so to speak, but Mihm believes...

The singular reason the Lakers won the game last night was the fact that they pushed their white player performance to the 5.5 level by inserting the dominant Chris Mihm into the lineup. In 2 minutes and 46 seconds of what can only be described as divine, Mihm was an unstoppable force reminiscent of the greatest of greats. His final stat line read 0 points, 2 fouls, 1 air balled hook shot, and 1 inbounds...
