its a kind of magic



... by way of Seattle, and not named Ray Allen. Orlando beats the King, without Superman.

hey, Celtics!

not to pile on or anything. i still love the Big Three, especially KG, and if you had gone to the Finals to face Kobe again, i'd be rooting for you.

but you know why you lost?


it's that little walking chunk of bad luck on the left in the pic above.


why else would KG get injured? because he didn't wanna play with this slimy piece of shit. "Starbury" left him in Minnesota because he was so jealous (of Garnett's contract and the attention), and look where that got him. it was probably only due to the good karma and vibes generated by the Big Three that the Celtics didn't immediately sink right after they signed him.

dump him, and get back to the Finals next year. don't waste Jesus Shuttleworth's legs and sweet shot. you got a two-year window. Rondo will be in his prime then.

bring it!

Superman vs The King, NBA Eastern Finals.


now i'm really torn on this one. for sentimental reasons.

at least the Magic fulfilled did their part; the Rockets choked and allowed Black Mamba in. so for the Western side, i'd be hoping Denver gets to knock them off.

hale to the mc

number four, come on down - T-Wolves GM Kevin McHale replaces Randy Wittman as coach.

with the 4-15 Wolves going nowhere, perhaps this is a good time as any for McHale to totally destroy save the team. he did coach the team before and did better than expected.

owner Glen Taylor had this to say:

"Kevin has assembled the players on this team, and believes in their talent and skill level," Taylor said. "It is my expectation that Kevin will be able to get the most out of our team and our players in his new role as head coach. He has been involved in the NBA game for almost 30 years, is a tremendous teacher and has a wealth of basketball knowledge. I am confident that our players will respond to the new voice and perspective that Kevin will provide."
translation: you built this junk, you coach this junk. shades of Isiah Thomas?

fans in the Great White North have not yet forgotten how he gave away Kevin Garnett to his old friend Danny Ainge. i still keep my Wolves cap for sentimental reasons (Winter 2003), but that's all KG.
"I truly believe that we have a talented group of players in our locker room who have a great amount of potential," said McHale. "I'm confident that we can get this turned around and get back to playing a brand of basketball that our fans can be proud of."

translation: oh, shit.
