curse?


the last 2 boykins nba posts: rudy gay and eddy curry. and they both go down on wednesday!

ok so curry went down with a [some say] minor and [some say] significant quad injury. gay? who knows. he logged 7 minutes.

let's see if this curse thing is true. i'm throwing mike miller up there.

the knicks can't play d... they had the suns on the ropes for 2 quarters. then the knicks turned into the knicks. anyone see nate's line? horror show! jamal played well, but jamal playing well [and logging minutes] means the team loses more times than not. not mad at his dimes last night, but he can't run an efficient offensive to save his life.

anyone see that nike nba spot with juelz? if i see another 'the right stuff' 'resevior dogs' treatment i'm gonna barf, but juelz is hilarious. dude can barely rap, yet he's totally not annoying to listen to!

someone make a good nba commercial please? remember those method man nike 'love them/hate them' spots? the jordan slo-mo 'water spilling over the sink' commercials? where did that good shit go? it's 2007!

the espn magazine ads with camby going, 'THAT'S MY ESPN THE MAGAZINE' were good too.

tickets! some major shows coming up... and they're all gonna sell out. am i missing anything? i think the dog tickets just went on sale!

my first favorite song of the year!



http://youtube.com/watch?v=Abp4eefCs5Q

i've always been on the fence regarding of montreal. on one hand they're possibly the most annoying band ever. other the other hand, it's kinda catchy

his name undoubtably makes most sports fans uncomfortable



rudy gay is starting to play for the grizzlies! and he's putting in work! he does a little of everything! steals... blocks... rebounds... threes... dimes... and turnovers

it's fun watching him and roy get their nba legs under them. bargnani too! not a shitty draft at all! i have hope for tyrus thomas as some weird gerald wallace type player, but he's already in skiles' doghouse.

danny ganger is playing well now too. maybe he's the one to walk out from the smoke of that trade. give him minutes and he produces!

al jefferson and ryan howard on the phillies... separated at birth?

eddy curry is the hardest working center in the east. and also the dimmest! 'i'll stand here for the rebound. doh!' 'i'll follow that guy out of the paint. 'DAH!'

melo and AI look sick together. i give them 2 losses in the row to start barking back at the media.

even with AI the nuggs will still get shredded by the spurs, mavs, and suns.

jason kidd is fucking retarded. what is it at, 8 triple doubles!?

the knicks look like poo without marbury. jamal crawford is a turnover/bad shot waiting to happen. i hardly remember the sick stretches he had on the bulls. jamal look at some tape dude! 'iso' isn't the only play in the book! love the last-shot confidence, hate the 3-10, 5 turnover lines right before the shot.

is it me or does ray allen look bored and/or super frustrated? i mean, there was barely a chest bump or butt slap during his huge game last night. dude is a treat to watch... if only he was on a better team...

mark jackson is fucking hilarious calling games. not mad!

E-CITY!


steph's been politicking for eddy's inclusion in the all-star game. and giving him new nick names 'eddy's as big as an entire zip code'. true story!

he should be considered. i mean, Z? al jefferson? zo? there are just no dominant centers in the east. where are the days of smits and ewing? and... zo! 65-63 eastern conference finals scores, son!

looks like golden state gave up on dunleavy, a truly bad 3rd overall pick. but sean livingston might claim that title soon!

hoopshype is already claiming dunleavy for maggette. the pacers would be psyched!

watch troy murphy start playing like troy murphy. if [when] jermaine goes down watch out for 17/12 and a three!

al harrington must be psyched to run now.

what the fuck is the deal with marvin williams?

what the fuck is the deal with jason kapono!

how terrible are those reebok ads? 'you're not a fool, are you?' i know they don't of the wieden and kennedy budget, but how did the execs over there let this one pass? 'YOU WERE FOOLED' ugh. cringe worthy! KG! get on a better team and get better commercials! they all suck!

who's more of a fantasy headache? drew gooden or boris diaw?

maybe we all over rated iggy?

i hate arenas' new nick name

another installment of NBA poems



earl got traded! and he started off his bucks career with a double double! since JR went to NBA siberia after madison square gardengate, earl has been chucking and hitting jumpers like it was his job. but it wasn't! now he's the man running the show in milwaukee and i'm looking for him up his assist average. respect! seriously check out his stat line for the last month. like a poor man's melo!

yao going down sucked. but it's nice to see dikimbe back to rebounding and waving his finger. who sounds more like the cookie monster: dikembe or jarrod collins?

what's up in seattle? luke got benched!? and ray is shooting like shit from 3. but at least collison aka white frankentein is showing signs.

dirk is basically my favorite player in the nba. with no disrespect to 5'5" point guards.

the suns look crazy. amare's fully back. man it's great to be 16 years old.

loving the 3 PG's. deron, raymond and paul. hope paul comes back soon. the hornets really ate shit what with injuries.

brandon roy looks like a player.

mike miller looks like a fat, hairy, alfred e newman who shoots a sick 3PT%

the east is pathetic, but i kinda love it.

the knicks are looking great! i mean, who was expecting anything? ok i was kinda. but with Q back and lee coming off the bench, this team is all of the sudden really deep. lee will get his when Q goes down again, but i'm liking this rotation. ok maybe jeffries is playing too much and nate is playing period, but i think zeke is doing work over there. no trades zeke! if you must do anything. try to get a pick! but i'm not even worried about that. i just want this same team on the court next year [maybe sans the 'franchise', but i don't hate him either].

uh. this is blowing my mind [it doesn take much when it comes to cam]


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stNP7rR6Sq0&eurl=

scooped by the fader.com blog!

dude is a mess!



"The Record of Bergen County reported Tuesday that Jason Kidd accused his wife of mistreating their three children and filed a domestic violence complaint Monday in state Superior Court in Hackensack."

filed a complaint? what the fuck? and then he asks for the media's 'respect' in not asking him about it? sheesh figure out what you want, guy. you wanna smear jummamma? mission accomplished! 'see? she deserved to get hit!'

ok that was out of line.

southern conference #4 feat. yo gotti! the first great tape of the year? close, but there's not enough exclusive stuff?

full disclosure. i ride for black dice and dan from excepter is a major dude. they both played bowery ballroom last sat with sightings.

quick. which one of these guys is older than the other?

note to zeke: for your new year's resolution: never sit david lee. EVER AGAIN!



david lee... welcome to knicks folklore! how long till the trent tucker david lee sportscenter spot?

out of the 4 isiah draft picks, who would have thought all of them would be panning out? balkman looks fine, and seems just as valuable as a marcus williams. frye still shows flashes, but hasn't shaken the 'soft' tag [trade him now i say]. i give nate a hard time but he's got trade value. i'd love isiah to move him for a pick. ok i hate nate i admit it.

but david lee! damn this guy looks like an all-nba defensive player. ok maybe 2nd teamer. ok ok he's just really solid. he seems to put himself in the right spot at the right time constantly. that last .1 second shot was kinda lucky, but he's been all ben wallace recently.

that said, i give him 2-3 years of shreddingness before he ends up a plodder like mo taylor or malik rose. but i'm not mad!

black pus showed up at d'amelio terras sat. movado didn't at the fader thing on tues. vietnam aka 'A.R.E. weapons 2007' did. i was too beat to stay...

clap your hands and arcade fire leaked tracks this week!

a few weeks ago will took me to see dashboard confessional and brand new at MSG. we were sitting on the court! right below the jumbotron!

i know i should've given the 'dipset christmas' more of its own shine, but it's mostly just jim jones and hell rell.

crash is back?



gerald wallace is back? double figures in the last 4 with some steals and blocks! two weeks ago who'd a thunk? i drafted him high [4th round] in 2 drafts so i've been hurting up until now. c'mon dude keep it up!

the big three 2nd-year point guards are shredding. paul and deron are all-stars, and felton is crazy when brevin knight aka nightcrawler is hurt. which is a lot!

overheard at the bodega tonight: 'YOU KNOW WHO'S REALLY GOOD? WHO'S BRINGING IT? KILLING IT? yeah can i get a lotto ticket and chapstick YAO MING THAT'S WHO! EDDY THIS EDDY THAT!'

the nets are a joke. richard jefferson transformed into a really average player. injuries? maybe. he's just not making it happen. jason kidd is sick though. if he averages a triple double i will flip. his freakshow son's head will explode like a garbage pail kidd.

talking about splosions, iggy's gonna blow up in philly.

al jefferson... all-star?

maybe 20/13 was too much to ask for from dwight howard. ditto chris bosh. the david robinson comparisons will have to wait a bit. but not too long...

gay? roy? morrison? it's kinda all about bargnani!

eddie griffin is a mess. what the fuck. this guy has all the tools. stop getting drunk and jacking off to porn in your car! get to practice! hang out with KG! do SOMETHING right. anything! i'm also sad mccants is so hurt. he looked promising last season.

denver's gonna be a mess. love AI as a fan, but i'm glad he's not on my team. that locker room is gonna be tense. good thing kmart is at home... what a collection of head cases!

how bout some lakers hate? that team is going nowhere with kobe chucking like that. and kwame looks more like olowakandi every day. sure he's had some nice lines, but on the court he looks lost. he's got 'that look' in his eye. the kandiman!

and andreas, what the fuck is maggette doing on the bench for your clips. real talk. dude needs to be getting more PT.

freaky zeke


isiah's problem isn't that he sent out goons, or that he talks shit to other team's players [a big no-no].

should he have warned melo to watch his back? probably not. he just should've sent collins out to get him. and that's enough warning. mardy collins is on the floor. karl better get his starters out. or at least tell them not to fast-break. sheesh.

isiah's problem lies in his first few months of his tenure. by bringing in marbury [a good basketball move] and making him the focal point, he alienated the entire team of veterans. it's always been an issue of trust with zeke and his players. or lack thereof. and it's still happening with this squad.

it's important that he doesn't clean house again. dolan called for francis? ok. keep him. keep crawford. keep marbury [PLEASE]. keep eddy curry. if not for any other reason than for team morale.

if anything, what zeke did during denvergate only endears him to his players. you think these guys play to be role models? they play for themselves and each other. and that's fair enough.

i'm tired of barkley getting on his soapbox or walton pining for when 'players played the right way'. in his era, of course.

these vets who have the mic want to preserve their legacy. last time i remembered sir charles was throwing dudes around and talking shit. xavier mcdaniel was a sweetheart, i'm sure. bill laimbeer? what a nice guy.

if anything, the nba in the late-stern era is soft. more hard fouls! more jarring! bring the excitement back...

also, george karl is a smug fuck.

the new beach house record! damn this year's top 10 is going to be muddy! must... focus!

these guys look like they're slow dancing. but they're not.


ok so i don't think melo is THAT much of a pussy. i mean, he sucker punched someone and ran. ok haha that was pretty weak. he's never going to live that down.

i think i saw marcus camby carry a chair into the locker room. somewhere in houston a van gundy shudders...

nate rob is my least favorite NBA player. fuck that guy! why does he always let his napoleon complex get his team into trouble!? i mean, the hit was made. JR smith was thrown to the floor. no need to chest bump your way into a melee. fuck this guy. they should just make a nate rob mascot suit for him and he can pound his chest all game long. just not on the court please.

jared f'n jeffries! a new dude who fucking stands up for his bro's! i'm pumped! he was gonna murder melo!

zeke also gets a thumbs up for sending out the goons. we knicks fans always pine for the mason oakley days, and then on WFAN all day i hear 'isiah's a thug!'. WHAT? this is his home court! like a hard foul has never happened before. at least isiah cares!

najera looks so stressed in every pic i see of this mess.

i'm all out of thoughts. people should chuzzill. fights happen all the time. AM radio callers who are screaming about 'rap music's influence' on the nba should relax. rudy T will tell you it has nothing to do with music.
