A New Coronation In The Association…

Wednesday, May 13th, 2009

As the Association playoffs bounce towards the conference finals the chaff is separated from the wheat. It is the end of the weak. Literally, and figuratively.

I like the fact that Boston will return to the Eastern Conference Finals because the champions should be shot in the head, as opposed to shooting themselves. There is nothing worse than a suicide on this level of competition.

No fucking finger rolls.

No fucking CHARLES SMITH layups!

The Celtics can take a game from the Cavaliers, but not two.

The bigger question is whether Denver can use the strength of CHAUNCEY BILLUPS and the desire of CARMELO ANTHONY to shut down Darth KOBE? BILLUPS turned KOBE into a bitchmade crybaby during the Detroit vs. L.A. finals a few years ago. That was a long time ago though and BILLUPS is older and KOBE is smarter and harder to kill. The Western Conference Finals will be going the full monty. I see the Lakers breaking through the seventh seal. BOBBITO GARCIA might take exception to that.

Revenge Of The Sith…

I don’t think the Rockets can get away with manhandling the face of the Association. How many other Black dudes have gotten away with stealing the booty of a young tender… White? Exactly, KOBE is more connected than TIM DONAGHY was. At the end of the day you still have to hit the shots and KOBE shot better than 50% from the field.

The series started pretty chippy from the gate and I think Houston is lucky that TRACY McGRADY isn’t on the floor for them. McGRADY is too tender for the rough stuff that we will see as this series continues. I hope he retires already and just opens up his flower selling business in Florida. The Association is too hardbody for that dude.

Some people still sleep on KOBE’s toughness even though this guy has a decade in this league and a shitload of post-season wins. True, he doesn’t have a post-SHAQ ‘chip, but you know that shit is coming. If I could get in RON ARTEST’s ear I would tell him to fall back on trying to intimidate these Lakers, especially KOBE. These dudes ain’t neva skurred.

Remember that chin check CHRIS CHILDS served on KOBE? Where do you think CHILDS is now? He’s living in a homeless shelter as an alcoholic. KOBE BRYANT visits him during the off-season to urinate on him. I wouldn’t fux with KOBE if I was RON. Queensbridge swagger be damned, KOBE is from Philadelphia. That shit is more hardbody than Camden.

In Your Face Like A Can Of Mace…

Are you excited by the young players in Chicago acting like the 2009 Cardiac Kids? I know I am. BEN GORDON is a beast. The Celtics are still going to win the series, but the retarded scoring in this series harkens back to the days when the team led by FAT LEVER and ALEX ENGLISH squared off against the squad hosted by MARK AGUIRE and ROY TARPLEY.

And speaking of Denver versus Dallas? As a kid growing up I was called every American city that began with a ‘D’. I don’t want to pick the Nuggets over my namesake, but I feel like CHAUNCEY BILLUPS has the edge over JASON KIDD.

Atlanta needs to just hurry up and cool off the Heat so that Cleveland can come in and eat their food.

Orlando vs. Boston in Round 2. Who the fuck cares about this shit other than Nerditry?

R.I.P. San Antonio dynasty
