The NBA Sucks
And right now it's at an all time low. Injuries stacked upon injuries, people ain't given a fuck (The Heat) and fans that are for some reason still buying tickets to games.
- real quick, I saw some HBO special last night about the Sacramento Kings and some Indian dude that bought the team to keep them in the area because "that's all they got up there." And the analogy Kevin Johnson gave was if someone took Ford Motor Company out of Detroit?? Seriously!?? That much of the economy and overall health is determined by a forgettable Western Conference team? I've been to Sac Town (beautiful city, just don't eat at Jaspers)
Anyway.
Lets look at the games for tonight.
Pacers v Suns - Would be a cool game to watch if Bledsoe wasn't injured.
Spurs v Thunder - Would be better if Westbrook was there to smash on Tony Parker. I hope Popavich sits his stars.
Bulls v Cavaliers - STINKS!
Magic v Hawks - DEATH
Mavericks v Raptors - Sucks for Texans and Canadians.
Celtics v Wizards - Isn't the blizzard bad enough?
76ers v Knicks - Can we just send the entire 76er team to the D-League?
Kings v Rockets - Dwight Howard doesn't like basketball, and the Kings play like they don't.
Pistons v Bucks - Depression.

Don't Apologize
All this talk about Sherman (I know its football but it happens a lot in the NBA too) and his post game comments got me thinking about a few things.
1. Don't apologize. You said it homie. No need to go on twitter the same night or following day and tweeting out your apologies in perfect grammar about how you're not that person. Because.. you kind of are that person. You said it, and you know what? We would like you a lot more if you just stuck to your guns and say what you mean. Like Stephen Jackson. He's about dat life. Which brings me to my next point.
2. Don't Judge? I hate when people say that. "Don't judge me because of that incident..." Okay, so when are we able to judge? Not by your actions but by the things you say and want people to think? If your actions are a reflection of your character, and your actions make you look like an intolerable jackass.. then your character is probably near close to an intolerable jackass.
3. I love it. I wish there was more of this stuff going on. It would bring the WWE closer to mainstream professional sports. The NBA was most watchable and exciting when everyone fucking hated the Heat and LeBRON. Now he's won 2 championships and it's boring. It was best when every stadium was selling out in hopes of seeing their mediocre team shock the conniving Heat.
I want a team to win, and get on the mic and talk some major shit. None of this, "They're a great team, and we're lucky to come out of this with a win" bullshit. I want 2000's Trailblazer style "Fuck'em, they aint shit against us homie. They couldn't buy a bucket naw mean? haha Swagger cuh."
