CHAUNCEY BILLUPS is tragically underrated. How steady and clutch had he been for the Pistons? How many teams has dude played for in the Association? I’m not saying that Denver will outlast Los Angeles in the Conference championship but if there is anyone that can add the hardbody center to CARMELO’s marshmallow personality it is BILLUPS. He is even more hardbody than KENYON MARTIN. Print that last line.
I was hoping the Rockets would have been the #2 seed in the West mainly because KENNY from Kenny’s Kitchen would have hooked the kid up with at least an extra chicken wing with my pork fried rice. RON ARTEST deserves some kind of award for the game he played this season in Houston. TRACEY McGRADY a/k/a Cupcake is done for the year and the Rockets are a better team without him. Rockets see L.A. in the second round though. No way in hell the league will let ARTEST manhandle Showbee BRYANT. Print that.
I need to start showing LeBRON some love [ll]. His coronation from the Association made me feel a kind of way, but who would know better than the dudes that made TIM DONAGHY a household name? What can I say about LeBreezy that hasn’t been said? And even if these contests were rigged it wasn’t TIM DONAGHY scoring baskets for LeBRON. If the Association were just going to gift the Cavaliers the LARRY O’BRIEN trophy there would be no reason for the Playoffs now would there? The Cavs do come out of the East this year though. Print that.
DERRICK ROSE is clearly the rookie of the year. Will Chicago take down the champs in the 1st round though? Chicago has been on a pretty mighty run when you consider P-City winning the DP.com NCAA pool, Obama being elected prexy, OPRAH on Twitter and KanYe getting his own sneakers with Nike and Louis Vuitton. I think that ruined all the good luck that the Bulls could used to get into the second round. Boston runs the Bulls out in six. Print that.
You know I’m a C’s fan, but Rose was ridiculous on Saturday. He’s like a mutant Chris Paul – I don’t know what else to say.
At some point, you just have to tip your cap to a performance like that, then keep on drinking and until you forget that your team just dropped the first playoff game at home.
Dallas – on point NBA commentary. I just wish the Nugs didn’t have George Karl (terrible coach) or J.R. Smith (terrible decision making) holding them back. I also think the Yao Ming Soldiers could threaten the Lake Show if the situation arose.
You think the league wants to chance a match up with LeBron and Ron Artest?
DP…you KNOW that since I’m in Louisiana, CP3 and the Hornets are my dudes [ll]. However, despite the game that CP3 had, I could only cringe at how Mr. Big Shot Billups laid waste to us in that first game. He is STILL one of THE BEST and most CLUTCH players in the game. I’m hoping we’ll win, but man….it’s gonna be uphill for us w/that cat at the point for the Nuggs. Derrick Rose MUST BE the ROY w/the performances that he’s pouring in, and you’re absolutely right; nobody wants to see ARTEST break LaBreezy’s ribs like he did MIKEY JORDAN in a pick-up game.
Dallas – No, it doesn’t. I agree with Mark Dub, Artest would give him too much trouble and would expose his lack of basketball skill. It’s a shame too – it would make for great basketball (reminiscent of mid-90’s ball where basketball still had physicality). I’m pretty much convinced D.Stern has predetermined a Cavs-Lakers final. That man is all about marketing and not basketball.
