I honestly can’t even contain myself. The two best teams in the league, both playing their best basketball. Two immortal players. Two of the best coaches of all time. One team trying to continue its dynasty, one team trying to begin one. I mean, it simply does not get any […]
I was a lot more excited for this series one month ago. Nonetheless, it should still be an all out war, very physical, half court style of play, exactly what the Eastern Conference is all about. That just may not translate so well to the average NBA viewer. Everyone expected these two teams to be […]
It’s rare and refreshing when a player lives up to the hype. Sometimes athletes come along with unrealistic goals that are set for them by the media before they even play their first game. They are built up to the point where it would be improbable, if not impossible, for them to meet these lofty […]
Its 1:30am (Wednesday night/Thursday morning-what was life like before DVR?) and I just got back from dinner and drinks with my girl Jmama. I know what you’re thinking. Why, after a nice dinner and cocktails, am I writing for you instead of giving Jmama a righteous thrashing? Well, two reasons. One, there’s a Laker game […]
-I blame Kobe’s decision making for the Lakers game 4 loss. He was hurting, that was obvious. Yes he’s a warrior and played through it, and was pretty effective, but only when he played within his ‘injured’ limitations. He didn’t have the strength to get his usual lift on the long jumpers, which made everything […]
Heading into the playoffs, I figured the Celtics would dominate everyone in the East, including the Pistons, and be favored in the Finals against whoever came out of the West. I guess opinions can change in two weeks time. The Celtics were disappointing, to put it mildly, in their 1st rd series vs. Atlanta. A […]
The thing that separates the Lakers and Jazz from the majority of the other teams in the NBA is execution. Both teams have offensive systems that they run to perfection in the half-court. However, there are athletes on both sides here, so an up-and-down style of play won’t scare either team. Expect a lot of […]
GAME SEVEN
No words bring more pleasure to my ears other than, “I got my period”.
The fact that Boston will probably win by 20 is irrelevant. All that matters is, as of now, both team’s seasons are on the line. One team gets the pleasure of defending LeBron. One team goes fishing. DO OR DIE.
Sunday, 1PM.
Be […]
Is everyone else as over the Pistons as I am? They went from an extremely likeable ‘team’, in the truest sense of the word, to a bunch of individuals, who play up to their true capabilities when they feel like it. This ‘technique’ the past few years has been good enough to get them to […]
The first thing that stands out about this series is the 10PMest start time on Saturday night for game 1. Who’s in charge of this? Was there a meeting where people sat around a table and actually thought this was the best decision? Let’s see, there’s only one other game on Saturday, New Orleans is […]
