KG, the truth, and reality

First post in a while.

The credulity that the media (ESPN, Clown Van Gundy especially) lent to Villanueva's tweet is silly. KG' s explanation seems right on to me: Charlie Villanueva is a cancer to his team and the league. Any moonball owners care to disagree.

Chris Bosh is the weak musketeer.

Blazers, Bulls and OKC all look awesome, records aside.

What Rondo is doing makes doves cry.

Is anyone else scared to post getty owned photos?

Funny with all the shine the young guys have been getting, Chris Paul seems to have slipped back into MVP mode.

Blake Griffin's game gives me pause. But the Clips seem sick as usual.

Is Golden State for real?

musings during the pregnant pause


This has got to be the longest t.v. time out in League history.

Couple of thoughts while I was passing the time:

Not that it isn’t being said everywhere, but Rondo has taken his game to an extraordinary level. He was an absolute surgeon in Game 2, scoring every big bucket during Orlando’s desperate attempt to reclaim their season. Having watched him play some 250 games these past three years (no lie, I got league pass and dvr), his vocabulary for dominance seems to grow every game.

Did yall catch Dwight Howard’s little Marcel Marceau routine prior to Game 2? As he was slapping five with various team officials in a dramatic pre-game ritual, he stopped in front of two dudes, who on cue fake poured pretend powder on his out-stretched hands, which he then fake threw up in the air ala LeBron ala KG. That’s the kind of creative energy I want my super star exhibiting before the big game.

Is it weird that both Stan Van Gundy and Alvin Gentry have admitted that their team cannot guard its opponent? In other coaching news, thank god we don’t have to listen to Doug ‘I Love You Kobe’ Collins next year. Let’s hope Philly plays well enough that he doesn’t get fired until at least 2012.
