So what happens to the clothes of the newly-minted World Championship coach after they’ve been doused in the NBA’s first-ever Gatorade dunk? Does he dry clean them or just dispose of them? Why on earth would he do [...]

This is something I think Mulder and Scully could get behind:

Ah yes, the celebration of Boston’s 17 was yesterday and it looks like a good time was had by all. What did we learn? Well, for one, we learned the ladies love Brian Scalabrine:

I imagine if you were to look down upon the city of Boston from space today, the area would appear much greener than normal. Don’t worry, there’s not a fungus growing over Massachusetts (unless you don’t like Celtics fans), it’s just fans celebrating while their team parades around town.
While I found the above [...]

It’s funny how people perceive things. Take Kevin Garnett for instance. When the Celtics secured their 17th title Tuesday night, the Big Ticket was, in all likelihood, the one Celtic who celebrated the loudest and with the most emotion. Considering the way he approaches the game of basketball, this is certainly understandable.

Today, Kobe Bryant woke up to mountains of criticism and posts scoffing at the very idea of Bryant and Jordan being mentioned in the same sentence. This comes on the heels of what many thought was a redemptive season for Number 24. The MVP award was a considered a coronation of sorts and [...]

While the playoffs were taking place, no coach was more maligned that Boston’s Doc Rivers.

Obviously, the MVP wasn’t too thrilled about the way the Boston/LA series turned out. This thought is reinforced by the look on Kobe’s face during the post-game press conference:

Cheer up, Kobe. It’s not all bad, is it? Wait, don’t answer that. Your facial expression will do nicely.

Oh well. Maybe next [...]

Before Game 6 tipped off last night, there was a good deal of stuff being said about Rajon Rondo. Some thought his play was hurting the Celtics and were beginning to wonder whether or not Eddie House should be getting a larger portion of Rondo’s clock. These thoughts were perfectly echoed in an [...]

I approve of this and I’m glad someone finally brought it to the NBA. Although, I will say, if there are going to imitators, please wait until you win an NBA Championship. That needs to be an official NBA rule, in fact.

Aren’t sports championship fun?

OK, time for a quick house-cleaning segment: when I said the Lakers would win in six over at With Malice, obviously I made a typo. I must have meant Boston but it just came out as LA. Yeah, we’ll say that.
Anyway, besides bringing another title to Beantown and besides [...]
