This is so fucking stupid and I love it. The asininity of youth has finally won me over.

When I was a kid, I used to go lift weights at the local YMCA

I still believe the Cavs will win it and I’m not ready to write off the Dubs, but it’s crazy that 3-4 games into the conference finals, Thunder/Raptors is truly on the table, in a season where Cavs vs Warriors/Spurs seemed like a formality.

It’s a shame Biyombo wears number 8, ‘cause if he wore number 5 I had a whole slew of increasingly terrible Lou Bega jokes ready to go.

If After the Thones is any indication, this will be an absolute wreck of a show that I’ll watch every week for reasons I don’t entirely understand.

That’s...not how plagiarism works.

Things got really tense when both vehicles wound up in line at a nearby Checkers.

Super weird that the team with the 4th best record in the regular season is in the final four.

In case anyone is wondering, the draft pick Draper here was advocating go to Biyombo was what landed Golden State their current second best player, Klay Thompson.

Lorenzen Wright. Now that was a guy.

I’m a huge fan of Jack Armstrong on these broadcasts. He’s actually been doing an excellent job of asking this same question with great subtlety and restraint. Last night, I lost count of how many times he gently pointed out that it was a mistake going to small ball to match the Heat in the 4q and OT.

Why is a blog directing me to it’s facebook page for content?

Eh...Wade can always fire back at that bandwagoner with “you used to call me on my cell phone”

I think it’s dumb they play them...but they do, and you shouldn’t be acting like a tool while it’s going on.

‘O Canada’, Guard Won’t Stand On Thee

I just wanna see the scouting notes on JaMarcus Russell. REAL BAD, SLOW DELIVERY, CONDITIONING A CONCERN, BUT CAN THROW TO THE MOON. LET’S GIVE HIM SEVERAL MILLION DOLLARS

I’ve said it before and it begs repeating- it is possible that good teams, particularly good defensive teams, can make other good teams look bad. The #2 and #3 seeds in the East have produced two games that while ugly, have been tough affairs- the #2 and #3 seeds in the West have produced an embarrassing blowout and…

One of the early descriptions of JV’s game from the lead-up to the 2011 draft that stuck with me, said in a very complimentary tone (paraphrasing): “he has good elbows”. The guy steamrolled his peers in international competitions when he was younger, and had a rep for being tough as nails and willing to get into it…

I’ve felt bad for players who hiccup in big moments. I’ve felt bad for players who had awful games. But I don’t think anyone has, over the course of an entire playoffs (so far) made me feel as sad as Lowry is making me feel right now. Dude. Duuuuuuuuude. Are you getting enough hugs?
