Tuesday, June 17th, 2008

Paging Mr. Bryant? Mr. Bryant, party of one? Here’s your call Kobe. You wanted it and you’ve got it. You have two games to save your team’s season and if you really want to ascend to the Jordan levels (I still don’t see it), winning these next two games with a [...]

Rajon Rondo: Point Guard, Aspiring Movie Critic

Monday, June 16th, 2008

If you’ve been watching the NBA Finals, you’ve undoubtedly heard of Rajon Rondo. He’s the Boston Celtics point guard who is more athletic than most players in the league. As a player, he’s one win away from being apart of history with an NBA Championship and apparently, the guard who grew up in [...]

NBA Finals: I’m Still Alive

Monday, June 16th, 2008

Does anyone get the distinct impression LA simply prolonged the inevitable last night? Don’t get wrong, the Lakers deserve credit for winning and if they are going to pull the miraculous, they are going to have to simply continue doing what they did last night — namely, win. However, nothing I saw last [...]

NBA Finals Pwnage: P.J. Brown Brings It Down On Kobe

Friday, June 13th, 2008

With all the Finals hubbub going on today — it’s amazing what an unexpected victory can do for buzz — I almost forgot about this one: P.J. Brown punctuates last night’s shocking comeback with a dunk over the MVP. Granted, Brown is about 6-10 or so, but I’m pretty sure Kobe can jump [...]

Over at Yahoo Sports, they have a great post about how the stars were reacting to last night’s Boston Celtics comeback at Staples and they have some really good interpretations of what’s going through their respective heads (current favorite — David Beckham: Bollocks). However, it was a commenter who stole the show with this [...]

Kobe Bryant: Can We Stop With This Now?

Friday, June 13th, 2008

Hey Mark Jackson, I have a question — can we stop with all these Michael Jordan/Kobe Bryant comparisons? Please?
Now, it’s true the Finals series is far from over and there is still a chance Kobe Bean could do something spectacular to save his Lakers; however, until that happens please shelve these Jordan/Bryant [...]

NBA Finals: Game, Set, Match?

Friday, June 13th, 2008

Wow. What a comeback.
That’s what I was left with last night after watching the Celtics climb out of holes that were, in some cases, 21, 24 and 20 points deep to capture Game 4 — and control of the series — 97-91. While the comeback was certainly one for the ages, Boston started [...]

NBA Finals: Tie It or Lose It

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

While teams HAVE come back from a 3-1 deficit in the Playoffs before, most get the feeling that if Boston wins just one of these road games in LA, they’ll be in a great position to finish the job when they get back to Boston. That’s why I expect to see the Lakers come [...]

Bill Simmons Agrees With Curt Schilling

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

A lot was made about Curt Schilling’s comments about Kobe Bryant’s demeanor after Schilling blogged about attending Game 2 of the NBA Finals. In case you don’t quite recall; essentially, Schilling said Bryant was extremely hard on his teammates and apparently displayed noticeable levels of aggravation towards the other Lakers, including some sailor-like cussing.
