Nick Young is playing with the Lakers again after missing the team's first 10 games, and that's good for two reasons. It's good for the Lakers because it gives them another legit scorer. And it's good for NBA fans because Swaggy P has seemingly made it his mission to give out nothing but gold-standard sound bytes this season.

On Tuesday night, after the Lakers beat the Hawks, he did it by calling himself the best three-point shooter of all time. And last night, after the Lakers beat the Rockets, he did it again by breaking down the definition of "swag" for reporters. And in doing so, he also managed to compare himself to Michael Jackson and Prince:

The definition of "swag," according to @NickSwagyPYoung: "I leave a presence. I'm like Michael Jackson, Prince, all those other guys."

Ha! So far, Swaggy is 2-for-2 in both helping his team win games and delivering quality quotes after games this season. So we can't wait for tomorrow's matchup against the Mavericks.
