Nice Dino rebound today...DeRozan had to be mortified. Good on them. I must say I literally lol'd when I heard that the Bucks introduced the Raptors players to the Barney theme song either today or last game (or both)
Quite possibly the most irritating song anyone is forced to endure....certainly degrading enough to energize anyone.

Re: NBA
Yeaaaah....The other day I was talking to a real Southy.....like 'what cowner you stand on?' kind of guy and he was sayin...HOLY FUCK, LIKE RONDO, YEAH? And, I 'm like yeah?....he did a fuckin number on us for 2 games in the garden, but he did a number on 2 teams for 2 seasons in another direction not so long ago. At best, he's a wild card. Was I pleased he wasn't following up those performances? Yes. Was I concerned Wade would pick us apart? Yes. Was I concerned Horford would pretend to pretend to attempt to pretend to look at the post? Yes. Was I concerned our 3's wouldn't fall again? Yes. Was I concerned our pic and rolls would be non existent again? Yes. Was I concerned our back door/baseline breaks and surgical passes would be absent again? Yes. Was I concerned about the rotations that mirrored doubles on IT and his exhaustion/grief and lackluster play? Yes. Was I concerned about Brad looking confused? Yes
I really don't give a shit about the rebounds; we're going lose that game.....as long as we lay HARD bodies on them....make them pay for them and spread the fouls along the bench.
If it's a war, it'll be a great fucking game.

Re: NBA
Hoiberg.is.a.bitch. 
Seriously lost all respect for him as I listened to him say that mess (I am glad he did). But immediately as I reflected on the people who do/have, Wade is a master of it.
Rondo? Seriousy, how does this help him? Officials?

Game 7 2000 wcf Portland vs Lakers..once the game was locked up he got his final foul on purpose so he could go to the bench...Then wrecked the towel rack in the tunnel leaving the floor 
...It was like he threw in the towel then couldn't look them in the eye

Re: NBA
WAY too early in the playoffs to be this stressed. 
Anyways, this team is impossible to factor in any money ball sort of way. Stats just don't matter because we don't win or lose consistent with whether they are good or bad for the most part. No O rebounding, no second chance shots. shit shot %, no problem....W....WTF?????.....and so it goes.
When we're on, we are weirdly magical...draining 3's at will, IT breakin ankles in the lane, lockdown D, etc....can beat anyone....Dubs in their house, Cavs, etc. When we're who we are, we're an over achieving team....the worst top seed ever. When we're off, we are a YMCA team on their best day.
Do not want to see a game 7 here. And I don't want to see Rondo anymore.

Re: NBA
Even with Rondo, the Bulls don't win games 1 and 2 without Lopez. Chyna's death took some air out of those games as well.
But, now there's Washington.....and no Rondo as a factor. Sucks that series didn't go a bit longer. IT has the funeral tomorrow and then game 1 on Sunday. Brutal turn a round and internal conflict to be sure.
Gortat, when on, gives us fits. Beal and Wall will be Beal and Wall.....Bradley, Smart, Rozier, and Crowder have to lock down on them from opening tip-off to the end of the series.

Re: NBA
It's really jammed up. IT shouldn't play tomorrow. He should stay in Washington with family and think about Tuesday. It's just too tight a window. There are no do overs here. It's just a fucking game. Game 1 for him should start whenever....best to him
Re: NBA
I was just checking the game schedules and saw the Celtics vs Wizards game tomorrow is at 1pm! IT should definitely take tomorrow off, but I guess it's his choice. People deal with grief in different ways, maybe he feels it'll be better for his emotional state to just play through the games.SR wrote:It's really jammed up. IT shouldn't play tomorrow.
