Merry Christmas

Another year, another Christmas, another bunch of shit games.

I'm always excited to wake up to Christmas morning. I get a nice breakfast of pumpkin waffles, eggs, and hopefully some good basketball games. Then Stern reminds everyone that its Hanukkah time and instead of ONE GREATTT GAME, we get 8 lousy teams teams trying to pretend that the regular season means something.

5 games on Christmas day and 1 1/2 of them were good.

Nets showed again that theyre overrated. Knicks are coming back to Earth. Heat and Thunder show they play at a different level than everyone else. And the Clips have the best record in the NBA?..

But really. The Celtics/Nets game was bad. A "deep" Celtics team against an overrated Nets squad turned out to be a total bust. But it was the first game of the morning, and since we should be in the merry mood of forgiveness and cheer I will forget this game ever happened.

Knicks and Lakers wasn't a basketball game. It was somewhere in between a three point contest/And1/All-Star game. The Knicks only shot threes, didn't run one play, and seemed to sputter out half way through the third. Congrats to the Lakers for breaking their 3 year long drought on Christmas day, and reminding us that you're not good enough to get out of the second round.

Thunder and Heat. These two teams play at a different pace. This made the LAL NYK game seem it was in slow motion. I guess KD and Bron are aiightt. More importantly it showed everyone that the regular season is a different game. But every now and then two teams will get together and play at a playoff level, and when these two teams want to turn it on and play at a different level they can (Unlike the Celtics, Nets, Knicks, Lakers, Kings, Mavs, Rockets, Suns, Pistons, Cavs, Warriors, Blazers, and Magic).

Bulls Rockets - zzzzzZZzzzZZzzzzzz

Clips and Nuggets - Not exactly the most entertaining game, but because I got to attend the game I won't knock it too much. Watching the Clippers live is about as exciting as it gets in the NBA. Jamal Crawford making people look silly, CP3 WWOOooooo, and of course BG crushing people. I actually thought this game was going to be a lot closer than it was.

Anyway the point is this. Christmas day came, with all the ugly shoes and dumb television "The NBA wishes you a very merry Christmas, please don't make us contract the league," commercials. And only showed teams in major markets of course.

New York x 2, Los Angeles x 2, Chicago, Miami, Houston (there's a lot of people there right??)

On a day when its about giving and not receiving, way to give all the 'small' people a chance Stern.

Fools Gold

Almost a few months into the season and we have a lot of horse shit flying around.

Allow me to shed some light on all this FOOLS GOLD

The Brooklyn Nets Are GOOD!
I got some news for Jay-Z. Moving a bunch of scrubs to a new stadium don't make them no better. The Nets have less wins than the Jazz, and the Golden State Warriors. Don't let all this media hype of "NY VS NY," fool you. No one gives a shit besides those living in NY. Plus I've always hated Deron for running Sloan out of Mormon town.

The New Orleans Pelicans is a Shitty Name
Wrong. Its a great name. Why do we need intimidating names like the Raptors, Grizzlies, or Thunder? Some of the best names in basketball are those that raise questions. "What the fuck is a Laker? And why is it in LA?" "Is there really Jazz in Utah?" "Is Trail slang for weed in Portland?" "Whats a SuperSon... nevermind." I can only hope that the crowd has some real great gimmicks during the Pelican games. KAW KAW!!

The Suns and Kings are actually Not that bad.
No, they are.

The Spurs are Cool
This is really, really confusing. The most boring (and consistent) team in the league is becoming...likeable? First Popavich gives Stern the middle finger by sending his starting 5 home against the Heat during a nationally televised game. Then the photo of Duncan and Parker (wearing a sweat eye patch) with guns to the head of ref "Joey Crawford" arises. How did they get so bad ass and cool?!! Did they get a player during the off season that brought more hood to the team? Could his name be Stephen Jackson? Did Stephen Jackon tweet this: Somebody tell serg Abaka. He aint bout dis life. Next time he run up on me im goin in his mouth. That's a promise. He doin 2 much." ...that could be it.

Gold that Fools
The Lakers are making fools of everyone, especially their fan base. They can't win a game, so they fire Brown. The fans want Jackson, they get D'Antoni. They had Pau, now they have Antawn Jamison. They can't reach .500. What happened to all this Heat vs Lakers talk? Gobble a dick.

Thunderstruck is a Bad Movie
Yeah it went straight to DVD, and the story line seems like a Space Jam ripoff. But in reality its a fun, loving, wholesome, family movie that shows some cracker in Oklahoma take Durant for everything hes worth. Quite fascinating really. Plus who gives a shit if its terrible, its not like "The Air Up There," is a fucking classic.

When he's not being mocked with a gun to his head on Halloween...hes making a mockery of himself and the league.






I don't think Lamar Odom can move that fast.
