The Finals, or Erin Andrews’ Decolletage?
NBA June 5th. 2008, 6:30pm
A few links taking you up to the game. We’re picking Boston in seven, we made a preseason futures wager on the Celtics, and we’re rooting for the Lakers. Also just made a deal with TheBigDeal, who we’re hiring as a bodyguard when we win the lottery: If the Lakers win, he pays us; if the Celtics win the series, we have to post a photo we’d rather soon forget.
We’re not thrilled about the Breen-Jackson-Van Gundy combo – probably because they haven’t grown on us yet – so does anyone know who’s calling it on the radio? Perhaps we’ll fire up Sirius and mute the TV. At any rate, we’ll be loitering in the comments section of this post.
* How Kevin Garnett almost became a Laker. (LA Times)
* Why the this rag is a tabloid: Kobe may be better than Jordan. (Boston Herald)
* We’ve got some issues with the math here. but the idea is funny. (Simon on Sports)
Because it hasn’t been said – the six days between the Conference Finals and this game hasn’t been bad at all. The league has had ample time to pump up its best rivalry. We’re all suckers for nostalgia.

Hmmm beer
June 5th, 2008 at 6:37 PM
No way…..Jordan Farmar’s 1/2 Jewish?
June 5th, 2008 at 6:42 PM
Ohh, he’s full Jewish
June 5th, 2008 at 6:44 PM
I actually do a pretty good impression of the Breen booth, too bad this isn’t a radio site.
June 5th, 2008 at 6:44 PM
Oh and I think I still have dibs on hosting the TBL radio show. I’m not even asking TBL about this. If he wants to come on the program as a guest, he better suck up to my call screener Nick P.
June 5th, 2008 at 6:49 PM
Bob Ryan’s got the Celts… shocker.
June 5th, 2008 at 6:54 PM
radio show? Sounds like fun
June 5th, 2008 at 7:02 PM
me, cursed, le batard and TBL doing roundtable style radio would be exceptional
June 5th, 2008 at 7:03 PM
rays and red sox just got into a great bench clearing brawl. they hit crisp and he charged the mound and shields swung at him but missed. it was a crazy brawl both benches cleared, johnny gomes was murdering fools
June 5th, 2008 at 7:08 PM
sadly, im watching jeopardy while the grill heats up. also watching BBC news – geez, there is hell going on in europe because of gas prices. wonder when it comes this way …
radio show? i dont bring much to the table, except the celebrity background, newspapers, and weak TV shows. well, and some sports
June 5th, 2008 at 7:09 PM
@ TBL you’re more than qualified
// mike madden and every local sports radio host named some derivative of “big dawg”
June 5th, 2008 at 7:11 PM
My dream for this series: Kobe gets a neck injury in the first minute. Yeah, I know that’s a terrible thing to wish for, but I’m a bitter individual, and Kobe pisses me off for some reason(I also root for a nuclear blast during Yankees/red sox games, so I am a bit of a misanthrope).
June 5th, 2008 at 7:12 PM
Speaking of LeBatard: Kimbo Slice to fight Brett Rogers
Thanks for the tip cortes
June 5th, 2008 at 7:14 PM
no problem.. who do you think would win in that fight?
le batard told kimbo that he needed to be like liddell and stay off the ground and just fight people standing up and instead of agreeing, kimbo said from her on out his training will be 80% ground game and 20% standing up..
June 5th, 2008 at 7:15 PM
Anal Rapists in 6.
June 5th, 2008 at 7:19 PM
ronnie, you should send that out to the usual suspects – nice scoop
i think it should be 90-10 ground game
June 5th, 2008 at 7:19 PM
im going with 103-99 celtics in game one.
June 5th, 2008 at 7:21 PM
Come on people we all know the Lakers are taking this series, It’s just like having sex with Kobe Bryant. You can kick and scream all you want…but it’s still gonna happen.
June 5th, 2008 at 7:30 PM
yesssssssss
costco > walmart
dropped two bills at Costco last night … and that doesn’t include the pizza and churro i bought afterward
June 5th, 2008 at 7:37 PM
TBL, you ever been to BJ’s.. yes the name sounds sexual but it’s like costco and sam’s club.
June 5th, 2008 at 7:38 PM
it’s the baby bro of costco, right? who owns it? im really wedded to costco. what are you doing this summer man? dont you start school in the fall?
June 5th, 2008 at 7:41 PM
yeah senior year starts late august. im actually going on a baseball trip this summer.. going to fenway, cooperstown, and yankee stadium.. ill wear my 2003 marlins champions shirt in new york try and piss some of them off.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BJ’s_Wholesale_Club
June 5th, 2008 at 7:44 PM
cortes you’re a youngin huh? Man and I thought I was young.
June 5th, 2008 at 7:45 PM
yeah bro.. any1 on here a texas rangers fan? can some one tell me why the hell they dont start salty every day at catcher? i drafted him in my keeper league and those asshole play him like twice a week.
June 5th, 2008 at 7:47 PM
dude, you’re GOING to be a senior in HS? man, you’re a lucky dog. geez. didnt discover the internet until the summer between sr yr and freshman yr in college. and that was just AOL … we’d simply go into chat rooms and raise hell
June 5th, 2008 at 7:49 PM
lol yeah you heard right. i remember the aol dial up days.. good god that sucked
June 5th, 2008 at 7:50 PM
the thing that sucked the most about those days? definitely the connection sounds…
June 5th, 2008 at 7:52 PM
can you believe that was just 13 years ago? I didn’t have a cell phone then. Not sure anyone did. That’s what’s scary about technology. Where will we be in another 13 years?
This is why i loaded up on Apple stock. And the new iphone comes out soon … so pumped, this phone i’ve got sucks ass
June 5th, 2008 at 7:53 PM
@TBL good choice by you. can’t go wrong with a macbook or iphone. not sure why anyone is still buying windows based computers at this point
June 5th, 2008 at 7:55 PM
I would love a round table format with TBL, sadly, on my salary, I might have to settle for a card table discussion
vaudeville humor
By the way, Elite MC scripted that nicely. They knew they didn’t have anyone for Kimbo that would have appeal, and that guy starts yapping right afterwards, so some people are familiar.. and he’ll be a can, i’m guessing.
June 5th, 2008 at 7:55 PM
yeah i know what you mean. iphone? man that phone sucks… so overrated. check out the sony ericsson x1.. that’s a phone!
June 5th, 2008 at 7:56 PM
has anyone else heard the actual audio clip from rogers calling out kimbo??
if you get a chance to hear it, listen in the background as one of kimbo’s people says “you a hater rogers!!” very funny. and the guy at the end who inexplicably says “ok enough with these stooooooopid media types”
June 5th, 2008 at 7:57 PM
Cortes, you’re right. I’m running windows XP, and I’m contacting Guiness to see if I’m set the record for most virus scans run in a 24-hour period. Perhaps I should change my surfing habits.
June 5th, 2008 at 7:58 PM
It was Baroni who chimed in later telling people to stop. Funny b/c Baroni talks more shit than anyone, and funny b/c he had two golf balls on his face.
June 5th, 2008 at 7:59 PM
@ cursed thats the guy who walked out in the red robe and had girls spritzing him correct? only to get his ass kicked.. you cant make this shit up
June 5th, 2008 at 8:03 PM
Jimmy Kimmel pre-pre-game? Lovely…
June 5th, 2008 at 8:04 PM
watching the ESPN preview … let’s be honest guys, the Lakers are not here if the Gasol trade doesn’t happen. end of story. he hasn’t even been mentioned!
June 5th, 2008 at 8:06 PM
Cursed, did you see the Torres/Maeda fight? Fight of the year or fight of the decade?
June 5th, 2008 at 8:06 PM
@clown. that fight was exceptional but the pulver-faber was better IMO
June 5th, 2008 at 8:07 PM
There may not be many certain things in life, but taking the over in any Rangers game is a LOCK!
June 5th, 2008 at 8:08 PM
cortes, that fight was mostly striking. T/M were pulling everything out of the hat.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:10 PM
yeah i guess since i havent been following MMA very long i enjoy the stand up fighting more
June 5th, 2008 at 8:11 PM
i will look into this ericksson business, but i really love the look and feel of the iphone. i have an itouch, which we got free (won it!) and it’s fun.
does anyone else laugh every single time they hear the term, ‘jiggle joint?’
June 5th, 2008 at 8:12 PM
Guys, I think that’s Erin Andrews on Kimmel with the Spelling Bee champ…
June 5th, 2008 at 8:12 PM
holy shit. everyone look at erin andrews WOW
June 5th, 2008 at 8:13 PM
Erin Andrews is showing cleavage, terrific formal wear.
Also Clown, I have not seen it yet, but people have been telling me to check it out. I definitely will.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:17 PM
TBL check your email, look for the erin andrews subject line
June 5th, 2008 at 8:17 PM
whoa
that pic is going up in 5 mins!
June 5th, 2008 at 8:18 PM
I’m clutch TBL what can i say
June 5th, 2008 at 8:20 PM
Lakers in 5.
And Apple products suck. Windoze rule.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:21 PM
Jay V = Steve Ballmer
June 5th, 2008 at 8:21 PM
And TBL…I see you changed your photo on your Metro column, you’re now wearing a suit, huh? Your idea, or the brass?
June 5th, 2008 at 8:22 PM
Jay V wishes more than you could ever imagine that I was Steve Ballmer.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:25 PM
ok, photo updated. im going to catch hell for this, damn you ribald commentators!
June 5th, 2008 at 8:25 PM
jay v – suit? huh? i think it’s jeans and a sport jacket with a button down. im 100% sure it’s no suit.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:26 PM
NBA Finals=BCS Championship
Celtics=Ohio State
Lakers=Florida/LSU
June 5th, 2008 at 8:26 PM
BTW Clown, Gonzo was dead on about Rollins not husting today…was at the game this afternoon, and made the same obseration…and this comes a day after his bobblehead night!
June 5th, 2008 at 8:27 PM
The lighting in that picture is bad. She looks sun burned. She must have gone tanning with Ric Bucher.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:29 PM
I wonder if it’s the same photo of TBL I showed last week. Looks like his head was photoshopped onto a nice outfit lol.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:29 PM
TBL…I could swear you had a tie on? Guess it wasn’t a suit, but I thought you had tie on. Maybe not, keep in mind my Metro reading usually occurs about 6:30 am.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:30 PM
Jay V. Hopefully J-Roll will wake up out of his coma. He’s been sleepwalking out there for the past month.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:32 PM
What time is the actual tip tonight?
June 5th, 2008 at 8:33 PM
Dontnomuch…even though I think the Lakers will whip the Celtics, I don’t like that comparison. A more apt comparison to Ohio State would be the Nets of 02 & 03.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:33 PM
you’re on the subway at 6 am? I actually have never seen the photo they use in the philly version … but i would assume it’s the same.
at any rate … cortes needs a photo credit, no?
June 5th, 2008 at 8:34 PM
yes i do!
June 5th, 2008 at 8:34 PM
You don’t want me posting that photo again Mister Raj.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:35 PM
Gonzo…one great thing about the game today…I caught a foul ball off the bat off Cole Hamels!!! My 2nd foul ball catch in my life, and you had to go back to 1992 for the first when I caught one off the bat of Marquis Grissom at Riverfront Stadium.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:35 PM
Well the Nets hadn’t won a title 4 years prior. People seem to forget about this tiny little fact.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:36 PM
No shit Jay? That’s awesome. I wonder if you were on tv. The game is on CSN now. go look for yourself.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:36 PM
I think you have to, Gonzo. I think I saw a tie in there last time.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:37 PM
Cursedcleveland…that’s fair…but the Celtics had not either.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:37 PM
Jay V – I caught my first foul ball at PNC Park a couple weeks ago. Another one to check off the “to do” list in life
June 5th, 2008 at 8:37 PM
Neither did Ohio St, Cursed. Yep, still bitter. Nope, not gonna get over it.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:38 PM
@Cortes – Macs might be better, but are they 3x better? A macbook starts around $1100. I’m typing on a prefectly good Compaq laptop that I bought for $400 at Office Depot.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:38 PM
Gonzo, definitely post that photo, so I can see whether I was dreaming or not.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:39 PM
yeah i’d say 3x times better, sounds about right.. i mean you buy a macbook and your good for 7-10 years with that computer no questions asked. you dont need to run anti spyware or pay 70 bucks every year for noton. its no hassles, do whatever you want on a computer
June 5th, 2008 at 8:40 PM
I gotta go look for it. But I know he’s wearing a sport jacket shirt and tie. Not really looking like a suit. More like somethin Larry David would wear if he was trying to be fancy.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:41 PM
TBL, the pdf link of your column and pic was definitely a suit. I think Gonzo posted it?
Btw, just when we didn’t think your roundup pics could get any worse, you went and tooootally redeemed yourself with that EA photo.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:41 PM
Never paid for Norton, actually. I usually clean it up myself, or pull down the version my wife gets from the U of MN. 7-10 might be pushing it though, just due how technology works.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:46 PM
I’ve always used avg for free..but now they’re going to start charging. Anybody have any suggestions.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:46 PM
Isn’t FOUR LETTER Radio doing the Finals? I think someone here said it was Tirico and Hubie doing the game.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:46 PM
Dell refurb > Macs
/when you’re poor like me
June 5th, 2008 at 8:48 PM
Hence the $400 Compaq, clown. I have too many other things to spend money on.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:49 PM
Cursed, are you sure about the elimination of AVG Free? Their pop-ups to upgrade are a bit misleading.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:51 PM
Costco is awesome. We go to Sam’s Club down at school, which is pretty solid as well.
Odds on what will happen at this Apple conference on Monday

Who the hell needs a security program. All you need are Zone Alarm, AdAware, and Spybot S&D. All free.
Oh, and don’t let the missus touch your computer.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:53 PM
Vegas, I saw those already on Charles Barkley’s blog.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:53 PM
Really, cortes?

Try that, but it’s working fine for me.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:54 PM
james taylor? really?
June 5th, 2008 at 8:54 PM
Haven’t hit the site, but I gotta guess the strongest odds are that Jobs is resplendent in blue jeans and block mock turtleneck.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:55 PM
there, the 2nd link worked. .thanks
June 5th, 2008 at 8:55 PM
nothing gets you hyped for game 1 of the nba finals like a man and his guitar.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:55 PM
+3 twelfthman–really? indeed…
June 5th, 2008 at 8:55 PM
I also bet on what color thong he’s wearing underneath said blue jeans.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:55 PM
Vegas, when you’re driving, do you ever calculate the odds you’ll make 4 green lights in a row?
June 5th, 2008 at 8:55 PM
3G iPhone better be announced on Monday. Apple rules. Typing on a MacBook right now.
C’s in 7.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:56 PM
James Taylor – wow, get Aerosmith, Dropkick Murphys or even the band Boston instead
June 5th, 2008 at 8:56 PM
+800 that you can pee on the 2nd gen iPhone to make it recharge? Should I put a couple of thousand on that one?
June 5th, 2008 at 8:57 PM
Anyone wanna play the “Who looks nervous” game? Always fun to overreact to players emotions before big games.! Paul Pierce was my pick.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:58 PM
dj mbenga is gonna get a ring. he’s following in SLAVA MEDVEDENKOs (said in Screamin’ A’s voice) footsteps. lakers in 6, although i want ray allen to get a ring.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:58 PM
Isn’t Boston’s place where they do the smoke introductions? Ugh.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:59 PM
@cursedcleveland: i bet its doc rivers. “OMG how did i get here?”
June 5th, 2008 at 8:59 PM
Celtics essentially coming out to a Justin Timberlake song railing on technology..hmmm.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:59 PM
haha, brian scalabrine looks a lot like tony allen.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:00 PM
TBL if you think decolletage sounds less creepy than cleavage, you’re wrong. You should man up and change the headline to “The Finals, or EA’s tits.”

June 5th, 2008 at 9:03 PM
WTF happened to breen’s face?
June 5th, 2008 at 9:03 PM
Who kicked Mike Breen’s ass?
June 5th, 2008 at 9:04 PM
Who hit Mike Breen in the face? Whats up with the band-aid?
June 5th, 2008 at 9:04 PM
He met Kimbo Slice outside the arena, and beat his punk ass
June 5th, 2008 at 9:04 PM
i think he just took out his eyebrow ring.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:04 PM
He cut himself shaving his unibrow?

June 5th, 2008 at 9:05 PM
is it illegal to wear a tshirt under your jersey in the nba? someone should bring that from college to the L.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:06 PM
Geez I’m nervous. I hope Doc just sits down and shuts up during this series and lets my boys play, because no way can he carry Phil’s jock. I mean I like the guy, but come on. A tactician he ain’t.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:06 PM
Well Marv’s got his thing.. perhaps Breen likes to get a little physical, with weaponry
June 5th, 2008 at 9:07 PM
The coaching thing is so overrated, it’s not even funny. Coaches do their jobs getting their teams prepared. Both teams will be prepared… but at this point, PJ or Doc are not going to win or lose the series.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:08 PM
this new hulk movie is going to be a major letdown. and i really like ed norton too…lame.
yes i would wnba…yes i would. thats a terrible marketing campaign on their part.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:08 PM
Cursed, that video would have really pumped me up if it had shown raja clotheslining kobe.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:09 PM
@cursed.. agree completely.. so is chemistry.. the 2 teams playing in the finals are one team who has been together for barely a season and another whose star player asked for a trade not once but twice in the offseaon.. fuck intangibles!
June 5th, 2008 at 9:10 PM
False. He wears no underwear.

June 5th, 2008 at 9:10 PM
guys, guys… i just realized something – erin andrews is hot!
June 5th, 2008 at 9:10 PM
the trophy in the middle of the court is heinous. we get it…this is the finals.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:10 PM
Wow, which embarrassing Celtic fan sold those courtside seats right next to Doc.. to LAKER fans.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:11 PM
I say that and I guarantee I would have sold my tickets to Nicholson for 35 grand.

haha, I swear dude. it wasn’t me.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:15 PM
TBL writes for Metro? They give that shit out for free when you get off the subway in the morning. I’m going to have to start picking it up.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:16 PM
KFC, I just had soda come out my nose from reading your comment. Partly because it was hilarious, partly because of my cocaine habit.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:17 PM
That’s a bad habit, gonzo. Don’t you know soda weakens the bones?
June 5th, 2008 at 9:18 PM
@cursedcleveland
not just Laker fans, but Laker fans dressed like THAT
June 5th, 2008 at 9:18 PM
Gonzo, now you’ve got me picturing the Peter Brady volcano experiment. You sure your nose wasn’t packed with vinegar and baking soda? No? Definitely was coke? Oooookaaaay….
June 5th, 2008 at 9:19 PM
yeah i’m diggin that dude’s hat. they look so uncomfortable.
and yeah, 12thman, the trophy has to go.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:19 PM
TBL..you use your middle name too? Wow…you look like you are farting in that head shot.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:20 PM
Yeah. Wednesday or Thursday usually.
I missed the Breen moment early … what’s this about a busted grill?

why is vlad rad shooting the ball? who does he think he is, sam cassell?
June 5th, 2008 at 9:21 PM
Fantastic. Looking forward to it.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:22 PM
@TBL: he had the smallest band-aid in the world over his eyebrow.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:22 PM
na he had a cut above the eye, had a band-aid on.. not sure if any one else agrees but it looked like his left eye wasnt open completely like it had been hit?
June 5th, 2008 at 9:22 PM
He had a banage above his left eye
June 5th, 2008 at 9:22 PM
I hate when Kobe does this – the whole, i’m-going-to-let-everyone-else-warm-up-and-get-hot-while-i-patiently-wait-because-i-know-i-can-take-over
it’s a bit arrogant.
WHOA, what is this movie with Jess Alba? Oh shit, Timberlake is in it? Forget it. But i guess this is why Mike Myers is on the cover the Esquire i just grabbed out of the mailbox. Weak.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:22 PM
wow, make that bandage
damn drunk typing

June 5th, 2008 at 9:24 PM
every single one of the movies mentioned is part of the downfall of our society…every time I see the previews I die a little bit inside

Just when Maple Leafs fans thought it couldn’t get worse, here comes The Love Guru
June 5th, 2008 at 9:24 PM
Jordan would have never missed his first three shots. Kobe sucks.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:25 PM
KG could have a Duncan-like series if Gasol plays D this poorly
and thereeeeeeee’s Kobe
June 5th, 2008 at 9:25 PM
tbl, i know you’re not. a. fan. of sandler, but his supporting characters are always great. that’s usually why i enjoy his movies.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:27 PM
Refs don’t understand the rule…
June 5th, 2008 at 9:27 PM
why do they have that stupid gold trophy shit at midcourt? def looked like an over and back … replays show otherwise
June 5th, 2008 at 9:27 PM
If you want to see a good Sandler film, check Reign Over Me. It’s a drama and for the most part Sandler controls himself, although every time I hear the accent he uses in the movie, I think of Fatty McGee
June 5th, 2008 at 9:27 PM
kfceater, including Spanglish?
June 5th, 2008 at 9:27 PM

no, not spanglish. paz vega is hot. that’s the only good thing about that movie.

posey is a real big punk

Posey’s value takes a significant hit if he does crap like he just did to Kobe.

June 5th, 2008 at 9:37 PM
Posey means to much to the C’s to be doing that crap, let PJ Brown do that stuff. That’s where having a coach like Doc hurts them, Phil would not put up with that.

Spanglish? You wanna talk about Spanglish? Spanglish? I mean listen, we’re sitting here talking about Spanglish, not the Lakers, not the Celtics, not a game, but we’re talking about Spanglish. Not the game that I go out there and die for and play every game like it’s my last but we’re talking about Spanglish, man. How silly is that?

@TBL: I don’t get pissed at that talk because I know who is the greatest of all time. I went to his basketball camp when I was 14 and I’m pretty awful when it comes to basketball. I have my team picture in my room framed with MJ and my coach. We went 14-1 and won the championship..not that anyone gives a shit. The camp was three days long, and Jordan drove to camp in: A Ferrari, A Lamborghini, and BMW Motorcycle. The only vanity plates I remember was the BMW: MJ 23

June 5th, 2008 at 10:06 PM
Intolerable Cruelty isn’t horrible. It’s infinitely better than Leatherheads, just lesser Coens. Now Barton Fink, when Frasier’s dad is talking about “being a little bitch dog getting his belly scratched” and drinking himself silly, there’s some interesting shit.
June 5th, 2008 at 10:06 PM
Magic said that he thinks Kobe needs 4 more rings to be close to Jordan. Don’t worry TBL, he’s not getting those.

June 5th, 2008 at 10:07 PM

I am in the middle of reading this for the second time (actually, I’m taking a break to read Liar’s Poker), it’s really fantastic. Some of the anecdotes of Jordan’s drive/competitiveness off the court are fucking brilliant.

June 5th, 2008 at 10:08 PM
Jordan > Kobe
Pippen > Odom (Pip was not HOF at the time; i believe the year before it was the ‘headache’ game against Detroit)
Grant > Luke Walton
Obviously we’ll never know, but that team was all Jordan and some spare parts. And really, i dont hate Kobe, i just dont think that he’s in the GOAT discussion. Don’t think he makes his teammates that much better – hence the last poor three years – and we’ll never know because he won with Shaq and now he’s winning with a stacked team.
June 5th, 2008 at 10:08 PM

@Cursed: When Kobe can score 3,041 points in a season, ok. When Kobe can win 6 NBA finals MVP’s ok.
Even though I’m extremely biased, Jordan and Kobe are not in the sentence. Same Paragraph? Absolutely.

Do you mean Mickey Shuler? As a Redskin fan I ask that you never type the name Heath Shuler again.
June 5th, 2008 at 10:10 PM
He’s not in the discussion yet in my opinion TBL. But i’m saying the potential is definitely there. Didn’t Jordan leave the game at age 30 with three rings. Kobe is 29… anything can happen over the next 6+ years.
June 5th, 2008 at 10:10 PM
no, he wouldn’t take lakers to sweep, and i think lakers in 5 is a possibility. we couldn’t find a middle ground
i can’t tell if Hulk looks good or not

June 5th, 2008 at 10:12 PM
Scottie Pippen was only in the top 50 because of Jordan. Look at what that fucking crybaby did in 94-95 when the team was his to run: 22 ppg. That’s it. And sat out the finals seconds of a playoff game because Jackson called the final shot for Kukoc instead of him. He was a whiny bitch who owes everything to Jordan for what he got in return

Mickey Shuler: probably a better QB than Heath Shuler
June 5th, 2008 at 10:13 PM
Dr. C, agree and disagree. Kobe could have named his average this year, but then he would have gotten killed. I really thing Jordan’s high shooting percentage early in his career was a product of being a man amongst boys, something he wouldn’t have been in today’s game. Every team has a 6′7 guy (actually 3 or 4 of them, that can move). Back then, 6′2 guys who were slower than Jordan guarded him (i’m talking about the mid to late 80’s). Sure they could handcheck, but they couldn’t play zone.
June 5th, 2008 at 10:13 PM
You can’t tell if Hulk looks good or not? TBL, I’m starting to question your taste in movies. I tried to give you the benefit of the doubt:) For the record, it will suck.

TBL..Pippen and Grant averaged more per game than Kobe’s next guy, Smush Parker…that Bulls team was more than Jordan and spare parts…the late 80’s teams are Jordan and Spare parts…by 91..it was all in place

TBL watches Shallow Hal every month. that’s all you need to know about his taste in movies.

And Jordan is the most polarizing player of the era, people either thought he was overrated or underrated. I think underrated. He was a better defender than Jordan and look at his year w/o Jordan, when the Bulls won 55 games. He was pretty good. He went 22/9/6 assists.. and did so shooting 50%

TSP, I assume you’re referring to Mickey Shuler, Sr.
June 5th, 2008 at 10:15 PM
jordan wouldnt have missed that reverse
June 5th, 2008 at 10:16 PM
Although Mickey Shuler, Jr is fast becoming a crowd fav.
June 5th, 2008 at 10:16 PM
yes, bonehead statement on my part, Rex.
June 5th, 2008 at 10:16 PM
TBL, pre-order the Sex and the City blue-ray?
June 5th, 2008 at 10:17 PM
Rex…is he as talented as Dad??
June 5th, 2008 at 10:17 PM
Scottie Pippen was perfect for the triangle offense and his length and athleticism were incomparable during that time. Underrated, I say.

Play Rondo more Doc, you stupid fuck.
Cassell is d-u-n.

Cursed: Agree that Jordan could run past anyone and everyone then, but isn’t that what LeBron can do at this point? LeBron is just a freak of nature as Jordan was at his time (and not even at the prime of his game). Players in the league now are more athletic then they were then, but 37 ppg for the entire season. I don’t think anyone will ever come close to that again, just as no one will ever come with in a mile of Wilt’s 50 ppg. Every era is different, but this is not as far off with Kobe averaging 32 this year for the title

@clown, will I be rich now?

He doesn’t learn Nick. Doc’s rotation is beat.

TBL, what’s the comment record for one post?
June 5th, 2008 at 10:22 PM
Dr. C, I do agree about LeBron. The potential is all there. I’ve never said it wasn’t.

TBL, you’re not the boss of me
unless you need another intern
June 5th, 2008 at 10:30 PM
just as an FYI, i will, at some point, be doing a movie post on Vanilla Sky. it’s a polarizing movie, but i enjoy it greatly (well, the conept, and the first 40 mins)
Watch Abre Los Ojos first, TBL. Way superior…
and no way is kobe better than jordan.. for one, jordan never played with a big man who had a post up game like pau..
