VDN admires our new bannerWell, it's going to be tough to follow up our last BAD post. You know, the one where Gary Coleman went upside Scottie Pippen's head with a phone. But Scottie Pippen is here to entertain us again! He showed up last night on The Cleveland Show, and
helped sing a song full of double entendres. It's not a midget beatdown, but it'll have to do.
In important, life-changing news,
you get to vote on who will be on each team in the new NBA Jam game! The catch? You can only vote for the players on the Kings, Clippers, and Thunder. Good thing they didn't include the Rockets -- Chinese ballot stuffing for Yao and Knee-Mac would crash the servers.
Coming up later this week: another bawful NBA 2K10 update with huge news. And pictures and video! Oh, yes.
Worst of the Weekend in Pictures:The Nyets. Enough said.You don't even need a funny caption/Ron Jeremy joke to enjoy a good Stan Van Gundy pictureRyan Anderson looks a little uncomfortable with this public display of man-love affectionDid Ron-Ron find some stairs in the middle of the Staples Center?Nationally Televised Games:Hawks at Celtics: The Celtics had a 29 point outing from Sheed, and a triple double from Rondo... and only beat the Raptors by 7 points. And Atlanta whupped them just a few days ago. I bet the training staff at this point has someone staring at KG's knee 24/7 to make sure it's healing okay.
All The Other Games:Raptors at Pacers: Toronto is at .500, has won eight of 10, and their most recent loss was a fairly close game against the Celtics. I am officially confused. The good news? It's Toronto, so I just really don't care.
Hornets at 76ers: The Hornets have won six straight games... by five points or less. This held true even against the
decidely horrible Nyets and Bullets. So yes, the Sixers could somehow manage to win this game.
Pistons at Bulls: The Pistons have lost a dozen straight games. You can try to blame some of that on a litany of injuries, but the Frail Blazers will tell you to kiss their ass. I'll just blame it on the fact that the Pistons suck. Good? Good.
Knicks at Thunder: Defense has been somehow shown up in Mike D'Antoni's gameplan the past few games. Thank God Kevin Durant will drop 30+ on them and restore some sense of normalcy.
Timberpoops at Nuggets: Again, injuries are a story. It's good for them that beating Minnesota is like beating up
Glass Joe.
Bucks at Suns: You know, if Phoenix could ever learn how to hold onto a damn lead and play just a
little defense, they'd be a great team. But, alas.
Heat at Jazz: Both of these teams are so very, very Jekyll-and-Hyde-ish that even the refs wouldn't bet money on this game. As far as you know.
Crabs at Warriors: The Warriors could surprise us a little here. The Crustaceans are a little tired, and the Warriors, who
love playing up-tempo, are well rested. They'll still lose, of course, but they'll at least make it kinda close.

the game before that? Only a 140-129 3OT thriller

Damn, what's the HTML tag for linking?
I vote we here at Basketbawful switch to something else, such as the "bipolar girlfriend" analogy. Here, there is a clear-cut good and bad insinuation, and we can feel like we're all counter-culture and shit.

Dalembert had 12 rebounds (2 off, 10 def). In the first quarter.
Hey Boston, Mike D'Antoni called, he wants his rotation back.
homo-rism.
God I hate local announcers, they need to muzzle him when the game's being sent out of market.
Denis -- MARIO!
John -- Heinsohn is completely off his rocker. He should be on every single NBA telecast alongside Bill Walton, with Marv Albert doing the main play-by-play. Can you think of anything in the world more entertaining?
Denis: OH. Bawful readers, put your power gloves on, THE Mario West is back to unclog your drain!!!!!!!!!!!
(or maybe clog The Drain in Miami)
Dan B.: How about getting Rick Barry out of retirement to cause more awkward moments with Bill Russell in the booth!?!??!
JVG is my favorite, less insane, though more genuinely insulting.
Heinsohn was ragging on Crawford's defense all night. Rough paraphrase:
Crawford couldn't guard... if he had a rifle... it's just his defense... he couldn't be one of those guys... you know.. guarding, just standing there... Buckingham Palace... if they gave him a gun... that's how bad his defense is.
It took him about 30 seconds to spit out that gem.
(Somehow, I think we're more excited about this than the real Mario West is, knowing that he has ten days to provide good luck in lacktion or else return to complete obscurity in, um, Tulsa? Reno?)

Andre Blatche storms out of practice,heads immediately for Randy Foyes locker and sprays himself down with his cologne and is promptly suspended, leaving the Bullets with a starting point guard of...Earl Boykins, Good times D.C.!
Atlanta whupped again.
Somehow, the Sixers won the game by five points or less (four in this case)
The pistons suck, lose by 33
Durant has 30, restores normalcy, Thunder strikes.
Glass Joe got beaten up.
Phx played just a little defense, almost hold onto a damn lead - though the Bucks shortly led 88-87 after falling behind by as many as 24 points.
As far as we know better, the Jazz home games are a sure bet for the officials. Utah is allowed to play piledriving defense at home and more than doubled up the Heat [pause] in Points in the Pain[t] with 58-24.
The rested Warriors played uptempo, made it kinda close and still lost.
Now gimme your lottery numbers.
Mario West, THE Mario West signed a 10 day with the Hawks.
He's back, baby, he's back....
More CAPTCHA fun!
