2008...so far...

The NBA is shook

Totally fucked up right now. No team is really showing their consistent dominance except the Lakers and Boston (minus when Atlanta manhandled them). But you expected that, right?

You expected the Hawks to jump out to a 5-0 start, too, right?

And for the Pistons and Nuggets to do that Billups/Iverson swap? Only for the Nuggets to go 2-0 after, and for Detroit to lose their next two games.

For the SPURS to jump out to a much praised (by me) 2-4 start. Losing both Ginobli and Parker. Awwwwww daaaaamn. I'm feeling for you Spurs. I'm feeling for you.

Just kidding, enjoy your life at the bottom of the West! Say hi to the Warriors for me. Maybe if Pop kept that beard they'd be doing better.

What else, what else.

SHOUTS OUT TO:

MARC GASOL. Dude's a beast. Inconsistent but I watched him put up about 27 and 15 (don't quote me) and it made me very hopeful for the young fella in the NBA. Once he gets into shape he'll be fine. I think next year will be his breakout year.

ANDREA BARGNANI - FOR PUTTING THE BALL ON THE FLOOR. We all know you can shoot, but you're 305792389572398745x more effective when you drive every now and then. I heard when you drive alot, the defender has to give you more space to defend your driving, which then gives you more space to shoot your precious J. Big ups.

OJ MAYO. Keep doing your thing. The Grizzlies suck, you know that. Imagine how fun that'd be to be an NBA player, put up amazing numbers on a team with no expectations, whatsoever. Just go out on the court with your buddies, make a few million a year, have a few nice plays and go out to the club at night to crush women. He shoots very well, but shouldn't be complacent with the J. Much like after you come home from the club, you gotta take it to the hole.

KIRK HINRICH. Why the fuck are you mentioning Kirk Hinrich you ask? Because he got injured, which means MORE TIME FOR D-ROSE. There is only 1 point guard now in chicago (along with 28 shooting guards), so every night is going to be the Derrick Rose show. Seems like fate just wanted Derrick Rose to play first fiddle, regardless of how decent Hinrich might be, he's still awkward. No swag. You need swag to be a good pg. Even if it's white-boy swag (Nash, Calderon). Hinrich is just awkward as fuck.

anyways, that's all for now. Tonight the Raptors play Boston. Hopefully they mash on those 80's jersey wearing, geritol taking, just for men applyin bunch of has-beens. In light of San Antonio's rapid plunge to the bottom, I hereby declare the Celtics as the new Spurs.

Tell somebody.

Peace.
