Hey Brewer

So once again I won my fantasy basketball league, and once again it came down to getting lucky with my draft picks. The last two nights of championship week were close, just like the last two minutes of a close basketball game the lead changed back and forth constantly, and I won by three assists.

I figure this makes me as qualified as the next guy to give my 1st round playoff predictions, so here they come after the jump. Let me put this out there first though: Kobe Bryant is about to play a playoff series against the Denver Nuggets, and there isn’t a single story in cyberspace bringing up a very OBVIOUS subplot: namely, the rapist is returning to the scene of the rape. Don’t believe me? Go ahead, google the news for anything about it. I’ll be here after the jump.

Actually I should say ho’s like Smush Parker…or maybe it’s Smush Parker that likes ho’s. Regardless, here is a vid I cam across on YouTube that features what I can only imagine is some downtime during a photo or commercial shoot.

Also, how had I not noticed that Smush Parker looks just like D’Angelo Barksdale?

Separated at birth?

Apparently this weekend Jason Kidd issued his first comments about his former employer the New Jersey Nets, stating that he did not quit on them and that he had done everything he could for their crappy team. Allegedly he suggested they drop down to the WNBA where they may have been more successful….OK that’s not entirely true, but they probably would have dominated the WNBA big time. I mean seriously, who on the LA Sparks is going to match up with Bostjan Nachbar?

Jason Kidd mug shot just for fun:

These 2 pics have been circulating around the net today, I thought they were both pretty funny.

Came across this video today, it highlights t 10 of the most awkward sports interviews. I’m a big fan of the Shaq one and of course everyone loves the 1# video:

Because let’s face it, it looks like Shaq, it acts like Shaq, but that ain’t no Shaq. Or at least that ain’t no superman Shaq. But you, sports fan, know that. Sports media knows that. This guy hasn’t played in a month, and when he was playing with the Heat this year it was even money that he’d reach 6 fouls before he reached 6 boards.

So why play him so many minutes? It was his debut with the Suns also; common sense would dictate that there’s no way a practice or two would already make him fit into their system, and if ever there was a case of making a rotund, cheezburger-buffet round peg fit into a square hole, this is it.

As previously mentioned on this site, Devean George had used his no-trade clause to avoid being sent to the Nets as part of a package deal that would send Jason Kidd to the Mavericks. Initially, George played it off saying that he just wanted his agent to review the details and make sure everything was cool before he signed off. As the days progressed it became obvious that George was not going to OK this deal no way, no how.

According to Mark Cuban though, the Mavs have kept at it and finally landed their man. The missing piece to this trade?

What is wrong with you Devean George?

Devean George - hater

The New Jersey Nets were so convinced they were trading Jason Kidd back to his original team on Wednesday that they held him out of their game in Toronto.

By night’s end, New Jersey and the Dallas Mavericks were in limbo, reduced to believing that they will ultimately find a way to convince Mavs reserve forward Devean George to sign off on the deal.

You’re a glorified backup forward who made a name for himself feeding off Shaq and Kobe double teams. You’ve already made more money than a player of your skill level should ever make and you have a few rings!
