The latest Chris Andersen tattoo
So THIS is how you rehab a surgically repaired knee. You get a neck tattoo. Good for you Chris. Lol!
His hair looks great, his shades are awesome, but uh...I'm anti-neck tats. I wonder if J.R. Smith had something to do with this.
Chris Andersen is operating at 95 percent tattoo capacity
It's fun to see how different players spent their summer vacations. Some spend them playing for the U.S. National Team, others just work out. Sometimes players get married or travel, but Chris Andersen has another hobby that he enjoys during the NBA break — getting tattoos. Check his neck, the picture on the left is from before last season, and the one on the right is from Sunday.
As far as I can tell, that's a "Free" on one side and a "Bird" on the other. Clearly he's a big Lynyrd Skynyrd fan. That's too bad.
Judging from the rest of his body, I'd say this little neck piece is just getting started. I mean, every other tattoo is in full-color, I'd imagine this one will be eventually. And really, you can't blame him for wanting to split up several million needle-sticks to the neck into a couple different sessions. That's just good planning.
However, I'm a little bit worried about the Birdman. No, not because he's going to have a neck tattoo for the rest of his life. I'm worried about him wanting more tattoos. He's almost out of room, and if DeShawn Stevenson has taught us anything, it's that face tattoos are horrible.

Does long hair get in the way of playing basketball?
For normal people it sometimes does, but I always supposed that some of the longer-haired NBA players were just too good for it to annoy them

Summed it up perfectly. Great song
Its cool to get tats about something you connect to. But not the neck
Maybe the photo got stretched
But the new tattoo seems to make his neck look a lot longer, like a giraffe.

It actually looks like he lost some weight...
considering he spent all of last summer bulking up (which helped slow him down)… since he just had surgery, I wouldn’t be surprised if he loses some weight from not lifting that much anymore… then again, he might work out more and become bigger yet slower
we don’t need Bird to be huge, we need his athleticism and speed… he’ll never be a low block defender like Foster and that’s okay
Didn't think about that
I hope that’s true. We need quick, high-flying Bird back. Less weight on chronically bad knees will benefit him from an ongoing health perspective, too.

God, I hope he doesn't get any tats on his face
Chris Andersen could be in a porno with his 'stache. Too bad he still wouldn't know how to box out.

man, that song sucks
why would anybody get something like “free bird” tatted on their neck? he’s going to regret doing that.
I don't think Bird
thinks about tattoos. Have you seen him? I doubt he has regrets on any of them.

Melo's # was 15 in college
Bird was probably the nice guy and gave it up.
