After 3 weeks of being laid up at home with a broken ankle, Tiny Jimenez decided to step out into the city of Phoenix to watch Game 5 of the Dallas Mavericks vs. the New Orleans Pelicans.
To try to maintain a low-profile, Tiny avoided the nightlife of downtown Phoenix & instead went to a smaller bar on the west end.
"Can you turn it on TNT, please?" Tiny asked the bartender who happily agreed to do so.
"Hey! I recognize you.." a female voice said from a few seats down.
She stood up & moved directly next to Tiny for a conversation.
"Hey! Try not to make a big scene. I'm just trying to enjoy a beer in peace, you know?"
"I mean no harm.. I'm here for the same reason as you.. The name's Panam.. Panam Palmer."

"It's nice to meet you, Panam.. My name's Tiny, but you already knew that.."
"Two Kamikazes, please.. Let me treat my new friend to a shot.." She said to the bartender as she looked at Tiny.
"Say, you look a bit down.. Come on, you can talk to me. What's on your mind?"
"Outside from being in this boot & on crutches for the next few weeks.. I'd say being forced to watch this game. That should be us out there playing in the Conference Finals.. I guess I've just been in a bit of funk since everything has happened.."
"Aww.. Well I am sorry to know that you're feeling a bit down. Maybe this shot will loosen you up a bit.. Cheers!"
"Cheers.." Tiny said as the two touched their shot glasses together before throwing it back.
"Say, you're pretty regular to be so popular. People tend to only believe the luxurious lifestyle of celebrities but here I am witnessing just how human you are.."
"You think you have me figured out, eh?" Tiny said with a smile.
"Not quite, but I think it's a beautiful first impression.. You all vulnerable like this.."
The two continued to laugh & converse while taking shots & sipping beers until the ball game was over & Dallas took a 3-2 series lead over New Orleans.
"What are you doing next, Tiny? Want to continue our conversation? I live.. right over there." She said as she pointed to a building within walking distance.
Feeling spontaneous & a little loose, Tiny obliged.
"You might have to carry me. Not because I'm drunk, but because I'm so tired of hobbling around on these crutches.." He joked.
"I'll take it easy on ya.. Come on, let's go!"

Back at Panam's place, she prepared drinks & made herself comfortable on the couch. As the two continued to talk, Tiny opened up about newly being single & the narrative surrounding him retiring from sports while she expressed issues in her life, including upper management at her job trying to get her fired.
Eventually, as the night began to get later & later, Panam leaned in & kissed Tiny on the lips before climbing on top of him.
"Watch my foot.." Tiny said with a smirk as the two continued to makeout.
"I told you I'd take it easy on you, didn't I?"
Panam hopped off of Tiny & dropped her clothes that she had been wearing since they met at the bar. She laid her head on Tiny's lap & looked up directly in his eyes.

"So, what do you think?"
"What do I think? I think your body is banging.. You got game, girl." He said as he began to slide his hand up & down her exposed skin.
"You just stay right there, Mr. injured man.." She said as she jumped up & gently pulled Tiny's pants down while he removed his shirt.
"Let Panam take good care of you.."
The two spent the rest of the night enjoying each others company. & just like that, Tiny felt like a new man again without a concern in the world.

that was all the sim my brudda.. They couldn't win at home against Dallas. Might be time for a breakup with Brandon Ingram at this point & an upgrade at the 4 from Rui
he got drafted in 2028 so he's a 7-year veteran. Doesn't have much history in this thread aside from a playoff matchup between Indiana & Orlando when he was just a rookie & Tiny torched him amid a series sweep.
