Bleeding Purple and Gold moving! And NBA Finals Joke
As far as the mockery that was Games 5 and 6 of the NBA Finals, I find it hard to discuss and say that I'm an NBA fan right now. The unaccountable referees have once again found a way to make the NBA a joke to all but the most die hard fans. How can one player shoot 46 free throws in two games after averaging around 10 per game? How can one player shoot as many free throws in two games as the entire posing team? Travesty.
With the Superbowl being a referee sham, and the NBA finals being decided by the refs, sports year 2006 is becoming the year of the power hungry referee. A shame really, cuz I may have to watch hockey in order to see the actual players determine the outcome of a championship.

To Call or Not To
I like Dwayne Wade. I really do. With that said, who exactly fouled him last night on his drive to win the game? Nowitzki didn't touch him, in fact no one did. This is the biggest play in the game on the leagues biggest stage. Cuban has every right to be ridiculously upset with having a game taken away by the grey shirts. No call on what looked like a push off was bad enough, but then to call a foul where none occurred is horrible.

A Less Deserving Player
Is there any other person in the NBA that is least deserving of an NBA title than Antoine Walker? He exemplifies cry baby. He exemplifies content-less hype. I don't think I've ever seen a player complain every time the whistle is blown (or not blown).
Don't get me wrong, when he's hot, he's money. But isn't that the definition of being hot? Isn't every player in the league capable of being hot? The key is consistency. The other key is at least knowing when you're not hot.
If he's not crying, he's about to cry. If he's not about to cry, he looks like he's about to cry....

Marcus Banks
Admittedly, I don't know anything about Marcus Banks' game. I know he was part of dealing Gary Payton until the mitten failed his physical. But the latest rumors are that Banks is coveted by management....
The word is that Wolves free agent point guard Marcus Banks is headed for the Los Angeles Lakers. Two years ago, the Boston Celtics and the Lakers made a trade that had Banks going to the Lakers and Gary Payton moving to the Celtics. But Payton failed a physical and the deal was called off. The Lakers have been trying to land Banks ever since, and that is where he is likely to be when the 2006-2007 season starts.

Jack Nicholson Is P.O'ed
The Lakers said Monday they had increased prices in eight of their nine season-ticket pricing plans, an average of 4% to 5% overall.
I guarantee you can go season tickets for the Hawks for two grand.....

Let's Hear it for the Boy
Shaquira! Shaquira
I never knew that he would shoot that bad
He makes the basketball mad
Rims don't lie
Behind the numbers: Jerry Stackhouse scored more points in the last minute or so of the 2nd quarter than Shaquira scored in the entire game. In fact, Stackhouse almost outcored Shaquira on a single possession. 2/16 from the freebie line in 2 games, and it should really be 2/19 including his retries due to lane violations....
With that said, if anyone knows how finnicky the roundball mistress can be, it's Lakers fans. So I won't harp anymore until the finals are said and done. I may harp a little bit but I won't talk as if it's over until the fat man sings....Shaquira Shaquira.....

A new nickname
Since Shaquille O'Neal had the audacity to nickname Eric Dampier, it's only fair that Shaquille is given a nickname of his own. I've decided that from here on out, Shaquille O'Neal will now be referred to as ....duh donna nuh.......Shaquira!
