Sportscasters and their made-up expressions

As promised, my #1 son had a few choice additions.  These were things he has actually heard.
Blowbyability (noun) The ability of a basketball player to 'blow by' his defender while dribbling the ball.
Beasting it (verb) The overall attitude and desire of a basketball play who plays hard all the time.  
Athletifreak (noun) A term to describe an athlete with exceptional (freakish) ability at  jumping or quickness.
Handle (noun) Now used as a noun to describe a player's ability to handle the ball. (He has an incredible handle when running the fast break.)
Bigs and Smalls (noun) Used as shortened expression to illustrate the different sizes of ball players. (They have a great combination of bigs and smalls.)

Thanks kiddo.  These were primarily basketball today.  Maybe more to com
