What a game. I watched it on Twitter like I do most games and it was good times. First, everyone is like, “Hedoooooooo! The Turkish MJ! Yeah, yeah yeah baby!” Then, everyone is like, “The King! I’m a WITNESS! Holy effing buzzer beater!” Amazing. The NBA, where amaz… Nooooooooo! The NBA has officially killed the word “amazing” for me.
In case you weren’t a witness, here you go:
A few things about this game that I couldn’t help but notice…
At crunch time, the Refs were actually calling fouls AGAINST Lebron. I had much shock and awe over this. They called him on a charge TWICE. They even called the crab dribble! Well, technically I think it was just a normal travel, but anyway, just crazy to see fouls called on Lebron at home.
It’s no secret that Anderson Varejao is a big flop artist, but come on now. I want to jump through the TV and nail him hard so that when he goes down, I’ll know that for once, he actually is hurt and not just faking.
Orlando is scary. I haven’t had much faith in them because of years of seeing them crumble, but damn, it’s like they’re a whole different team or something. Good for them. I never said I didn’t like them, I just said I didn’t believe in them. I also said if they proved me wrong that I’d be happy to admit it. They’re on their way…
So last night… What was up with the Superman music at the Q at the end of the game? I imagine there must’ve been something on the Jumbotron I wasn’t seeing that would explain this. If anyone was at the game and can enlighten me, I’d be forever greatful.
This cracks me up. Mainly the first part. “I’m a big guy. Sometimes I don’t even feel it when I’m sitting on a remote.” I wonder if he’d feel it if he was sitting on a coyote or a porcupine? I think it’s nice that he apologized and smart to do it in a humorous way. No need to act like it was a big ass deal, but always good PR-wise to acknowledge the incident and explain that it was unintentional. Since calling BBD a “raging animal” the kid’s Dad has since backed off and admitted he overreacted. All’s well that ends well, I guess.

Speaking of big ass deals, Mark Cuban finally apologized to Kenyon Martin and his Mom. Another PR move, but one that definitely was overdue. He extended the olive branch, but we’ll see what “Lips” decides to do with it. Ultimately, I think it will be hard to mend fences there. If Cuban really believes K-Mart is a “thug” or “punk,” I’m not sure how they could ever really kiss and make up. Could you forgive and forget with someone that you know deep down doesn’t respect you or your family? Probably not. Either way, it’s solid entertainment.
Ok, there’s been a lot of bad breaks going our way lately and that sucks… but if you’re a Celtics fan and you want to turn that frown upside down, just enjoy this YouTube video with me. Damn, if I don’t get choked up every time right around the 2:20 mark.

If that doesn’t do it, then just enjoy the cutest Celtics fan ever on Ellen!
Gah. While I’m a big Red Sox fan, I’m not much of a baseball fan per se. I have a picture of myself from when I was ten taken at Fenway in front of a group of players. I’m pretty sure that was the last time I was actually at Fenway Park in person. Since then, I’ve watched periodically on television depending on what time of the year it is. Anyway, yesterday’s game was apeshit. 13 innings? Thanks be to Youk for the put-us-out-of-our-misery homer. I thought that game would never end. It was like slooooow torture. The game the day before was worse though. Dice-K couldn’t even get out of the 2nd inning. Sweet baby jesus.
Shaq’s diss rap at Kobe… Wowwww. Just wow. Expect the Mamba to drop 100 points on the Suns next season. I am so not exaggerating either. Expect like a 100 point game. I would imagine he’s that pissed. I used to be on Shaq’s “side” in his beef with Kobe, but I lost respect for him this past season when he threw his D-League team members from Miami under the bus. I’m still pretty annoyed that he’s stinking up the Suns roster with his presence because I love the Suns. Now I have to say, “…the Suns who I love, oh except for Shaq.” Blah.
Oh and whoever stole my superior Celtics team and replaced it with this new inferior one, could you kindly return them to me? Danke shane. Those refunds for the ineffective Lebron James Voodoo Dolls are in the mail…
Sweet baby jesus, how many “dear friends” does this guy (Kritik designer, Jonathan Cheban) have? Also, I’m sure Juicy just loves this PR… lol (oh yeah, kill the music on the left hand sidebar if you want to actually hear the video sound *wink*)
