In Case You Missed It Last Night…

Your move, Craig Sager.

”If you can draft David Robinson and follow that up with Tim Duncan, that’s a couple of decades of very, very possible success unless you just screw it up. So it’s hard to take credit when circumstances have gone your way so consistently.”

Pop is the best.

We Believe Warriors

joeydevine:

“We Believe” Warriors in the NBA currently on Playoff Rosters: Baron Davis, Stephen Jackson, Jason Richardson, Matt Barnes, Al Harrington, Mickael Pietrus, Kelenna Azubuike

“We Believe” Warriors in the NBA not in the playoffs: Monta Ellis, Andris Biedrins

MAYBE THEY PICKED THE WRONG 2…. 

I thought Josh Powell might be on a playoff roster (he’s not; he’s playing in Puerto Rico), and was surprised to see this as the first sentence of his Wikipedia page:

For the Utah murder-suicide case, see Disappearance of Susan Powell.

Meanwhile, Šarūnas Jasikevičius was a Greek Cup champion and MVP this year, and Adonal Foyle’s team made it to the regional finals of the National Poetry Slam.

This is just a guess because it’s anyone’s guess what Charles Barkley meant by it, but I think Stephen Jackson took a “Cliff Robinson shower.”

Burning Question of Round One

Given his performance tonight, how many push-ups can Zach Randolph actually do? More than ten? More than eleven?

Filed under: sports nba Ron Artest metta world peace Los Angeles Lakers 

For those people protesting that Ron Artest/Metta World Peace is a changed man, that hitting James Harden in the head was an accident, or Artest’s random on-court violence was an aberration, let’s look at the video.

Here’s Artest hitting Juan Jose Barea in the head for no reason, an act that earned him an ejection and a suspension during last year’s playoffs. Was it even his first blow-to-the-head suspension during a playoff series? No, he missed a game back in 2006 for elbowing Manu Ginobili in the head.

Off the court, Metta World Peace might well be a mature, thoughtful, kind person. But on the court, he’s not much different than he was when he went into the stands seven years ago. Except he hits other players in the head more.

Metta World War.

“As their bizarre press conference laid bare for all to see, dealing with the Maloofs is like dealing with the North Koreans— except they are less competent.”
Chris Lehane, executive director of the committee devoted to keeping the Kings in Sacramento.

Kings owner Gavin Maloof poses with Dave Matthews. A few points:
1. Look, he owns a team in Sacramento - of course Gavin Maloof loves Dave Matthews Band.
2. Nice pants, Gavin.
3. If Mr. Matthews knew how the Maloofs are treating their fans, he wouldn’t want to touch that guy.
4. NBA owners may talk about loyalty to their cities, but when it comes time to make a stadium deal or threaten re-location, they all do it the same. They all do it the saaaaaaaame.
