The Independent, a largely liberal weekly magazine produced locally here in the Triangle, will occasionally step out and do some sports articles of local interest. They usually come with a unique twist or different perspective than your run-of-the-mill sports piece from one of the local rags.
This one is no different. It's a look at Dennis Horner and the rest of the State basketball team as told by, well, Dennis Horner. But not really. The title is a play of off Spike Jonze's "Being John Malkovich," and the piece is meant to give you a look at the team from inside the mind of Horner. If you've seen the movie, it makes a bit more sense, but if not then the article may seem a bit odd.
Well, it's a bit odd either way.
In any event, it's not a slam piece so it has that going for it. Enjoy.
