last night there was a real good collection of games on television channels i can watch...sixers and the blazers; celtics and the nets; and in high hopes of some more walt, the knicks and wizards.
i had a bet going on the philly/portland game--against the sixers, of course. this one, was a mess in every sense of the word. i don't know what was going on this time with the blazers, but they were trailllllllin the whole time! maybe it was the scary rabbit running around dressed in a 76ers jersey. but for some reason, the sixers would not stop scoring in the first half. forreal, andre miller (adam sandler), lou williams, andre igoldata(whatever it is)....no thanks, fella. no need to show off for me, because i won't like you ever. there's really not to much to say about this...except maybe that they closed the losing gap from like, 23 down to 8 for about ten minutes... and then it was back to 18 points down. final score: Portland 79, Philadelphia 100. REAL COOL.
the nets have been moving up on my list of teams i like...i don't know if its that i saw them, or that i've just been watching more of their games because i get their specialty channel. but either way, vince carter is THE MAN, and if i was related to him, too, life would be okay. downside though: josh boone, eduardo najarea, brook lopez pretty much. but tonight, they were playing in boston, who most definitely needed a win. let me just say that the way they played last night was up to par. THE RAYRAY SMOOTHIE WAS BLENDIN RIGHT!...paul pierce was just about the best person ever. and, Big Baby looks like Binky Barnes from Arthur, and is "a plopper." but it was cute, you know, everyone from the boston bench got a chance to play and that was good--NICE CALL, DOC. final score: New Jersey 86, Boston 118... sorry vince. i miss you tony allen, come back.
in other news: d-baby scored 25 points in his game, and they actually beat the raptors in a final score of 102-98...thatssaboy!
one of my least favorite match-ups ever: Lakers and Spurs. that is actually one of the worst things that could be on television. c'mon now. you can't pick a side with these two--you're going to chose kobe bryant to win? no way. but then you'd have to be rooting for tim duncan...and that is just incredibly disgusting and very wrong. soooo, i wouldn't know what to do in this situation because i really hate them both. final score for kobe and tim: L.A. 111 S.A. 112. i'm sure these two were the last people to shoot on their team, and i hope that the ball bounced out of the basket to hit them in the face...both of them, and then flew over hit their little partners--pau gasol and tony parker.

percolating in the paint with exquisite timing...
boston celtics are straight up killin me.
it's not the fact that they have six losses right now--i know they can't win every game. but it's more so who they have been losing too. beginning with the lakers on christmas. then, GOLD STATE WARRIORS?! c'mon fellas, that's ridiculous. then we got a loss to the trailblazers. as much as i like them, whyyyy did they lose by ten points? and now, we have added another loss to the list by the freakin new york knicks. WHAT. THE. CRAP. people, really, you are better than the knicks. man, if i even saw mr. david lee layup another ball, or even just come up on the screen with that stupid chin dip, i was going to throw up. then they had sir two-toned head whose sweatband was really cutting off circulation to the dude's scalp. but for some reason this guy was like, on the money. but if i saw him score another three i was going to die. some dude was tryin to be like nelly foreal. got a band-aid on the eye and everything. duhon i think it was. i really don't know. that team is a mess, i don't know how they pulled this one off. especially because the advice of the coach, "If you play this game for 48 minutes with the same or more energy than them, we will win." what? really? do you also need to score more points or what, dummy?
on our side, rondo barely played i feel like. wassup with that one, doc. i mean, he's what's goin on. but instead, he puts Big Baby in for way too long. whatever, i really don't know what was going on with the green last night. rayray was off a bit in the second half anyway. paul did maaaad work in the second half. i wish that guy was my dad...i love him.
but i honestly don't even know what to say to recap this game. the game was close pretty much the entire time, and it was just kind of like a battle of three pointers, really. for some reason the new yorkers were smackin all kinds of shots and then boston would try to do the same instead of just doing fast layups or something like that. the other problem, i know, was that they were double and triple teaming kev, paul and rondo for sure. like, hop off, please. give the playas some space to breathe. good lord.
one good thing about watching this dumb game: WALT FRAZIER.he's the man and has the best phrases on earth including:
"stumbling and bumbling"
"running and stunning"
"out-muscling and out-hustling"
"slamming and jamming"
"driving and mesmerizing"
"all the Knicks with the knack tonight"
"continuity and spontaneity"
"...manipulating in the lane"
"...beginning to percolate"
"swiss cheese defense"
"erratic, dramatic, acrobatic"
"styling and profiling"
"posting and toasting"
