Early in the season my wife got tired of me saying, "I really like this new guy, Donovan Jackson." Now it's, "OH MY GOD, Could you please get Solomon back in the game?"

No. The rules specifically address this:
c. When the ball contacts the backboard and any part of the ball is above the rim during a field goal attempt, it is considered to be on its downward flight. In such a case, it is goaltending when the ball is touched by a player as long as it has a possibility of entering the basket.
The presence of Solomon removes all possibility of opponent's shots entering the basket. Even when he is on the bench.
-And on the first day, Solomon created basketball, and he saw that it was good.
-Solomon Young can make a Vulcan cry.
-Dunkin' Donuts? Not against Solomon Young's defense.
-When Solomon orders Chinese takeout, they give him an adequate amount of napkins.
-Little known fact about Einstein: he always had Solomon check his math.

Probably during a Kansas game.

It used to be different if that's the case. You could block a shot that hit the backboard provided it was still going up. You could do it in college but not the NBA. @coolerifyoudid -- I don't think you're wrong.
-The Harlem Globetrotters run a 3-man weave. Solomon Young runs a 1-man weave.
-Solomon Young spins a basketall on his finger so fast that it disappears into the past or future, depending on the direction of the spin.
-Solomon Young beat Michael Phelps in the freestyle 100 meters at the Olympics. He doggy paddled his way to an easy victory.

Solomon Young was at a beach, when a sad hump-backed whale came to him. The whale told Solomon that he could not get a mate, and was afraid. Solomon reassured the whale, and told him that he should tell the other sea creatures that he knows Solomon. The hump-backed whales are no longer endangered. He did the same for a couple of Bald Eagles. Sadly, the sumatran rhino has not yet taken his advice.
Solomon Young once showed concern. The result: Mt. St. Helens.
Solomon Young only misses free throws to prove his humanness, and to show he's a true Cyclone because it's never easy for ISU.
Seriously, was bummed (and surprised) that he missed, but he's been incredible down this stretch and was a crucial part of a great win today!

Solomon Young built the one room cabin he was born in with his own hands.
Seriously, his improvement brings a tear to my eye. Really like this kid and his on-court demeanor.

Young had yet another game when stats don't reflect his full input.
I have to give co-game ball to Morris and Burton, though.
