New Album & The Beginning of Basketball Season

Looks like Nurse stepped OUT Phil!

Thanks Jack, Nurse stepped out of the coach's box, and IN to the court where it's the players turf. Which was why he pulled his left leg out of the court area because he knew he was stepping inside the court itself. Breaks of the game. But the real killer was the no call on Kemba's drive following that, that would have mean 2 shots and a possible lead. And here is the OFFICIAL NBA report. There was a FOUL. No wonder the Celtics fans on social media are screaming.

Lackluster first half.

Lakers 57-41

Small ball may be fun to watch but not sure it can win championships

I don't see myself cheering for the Hoosiers for as long as Mr. Nate Predictable is at the helm.

Jack, Nate is gone and Billups is the frontrunner.

Small ball with no bench surely cannot win rings. Jeff Green, Ben Mac and Austin Rivers? Rivers suddenly don't know how to shoot, again. It's been on and off,c career wise.

'99 Kicks were 8th seed but lost to SA

'95 Hakeem and the Rockets were 6th seeds and won over ORL

I sooooo want to jump on the Heat bandwagon right now LOL Go Spo!

In my heart I want to be for the Clipps because I know what the CAN be. Problem is that util now, like all of us here, I've yet to see them put their foot on opponent's throats and really try to keep it there. Something Miami has been trying to do all season. I love beautiful offense but D, CLEAN D, is what really excites me. It's what I loved about the Pacers in the first place.

I think the Heat are the real deal Jack

BTW Mr Nate Predictable was fired

If you watched it from the start you'll see why I praised Nurse. He took out Kemba from the equation exactly the way they did Stef last year, the sneaky ol Box and 1. I remember coach Pumaren using this with DLSU's Dinglasan hounding AdMU's Reyes in the early 90s! Nothing new under the sun as they say in IP Law LOL It was called the Diamond and One back then. Here in the Philippines at least. I was statistician for Coach Villavicencio and Coach Reyes when they coached Juniors throughout HS. I wonder if I ever told you that

 

[JackD201]

Bye Bye Nate!!!!!

True Jack. Kemba has been boxed in. But it's fun to watch as the Raptors 2 Six footers (6'0") battle 1 six footer of the C's. The 2 Raptors are bulky and stocky. Kemba is 'slim'. He's a dancer.

67 -47 Lakers with 8:00 left in 3rd

This is almost in the refrigerator

Spo is half Filipino so I have an excuse

Bye Bye Mike!

Never liked coaches that ran players into the ground. So no love for Mike and Thibs.

Who is this kid Talen Tucker-Horton on the Lakers. I've never heard of him but watched him score a few late in the first period

Fred is a Bulldog and Kyle is a Rottweiler!

Precisely why I hate him as well. I've said many times here that he ran Kobe and the Lakers into the ground. I was shocked to read that management wants him back and he hasn't committed

 

[Steve Williams]

Rockets have a little rally at the end of the 3rd but Lakers still dominate

86-70 (lead was as much as 19)

 

[Steve Williams]

It's in the refrigerator.....

lakers 103-87 with 3:30 left

 

[Steve Williams]

5 lakers turnovers bring the Rockets to within 10 so maybe the refrigerator door is open a bit

Lakers get really sloppy and Rockets capitalize

 

[Steve Williams]

Caruso seems to have sunk the coup d'etat as he gets a 3 from the corner
Lakers 108-100 with 36.6

 

[Steve Williams]

Final

Lakers 110-100

Lakers gave up a 23 point lead and fell apart with 7 minutes left in the game. Lots of turnovers and fouls but they are up 3-1

And people blame Harden for not playing well at the end of games. While I find watching the Rockets' play unenjoyable, I've got to hand it to the little guys for doing what is asked of them, unreasonable as they may be. I hope this brings this experiment to a close.
