Surprise!!

Good evening, and welcome to Monday Night BAD. So yeah, there's not much I can say that will hold your attention after such a fantastic opening picture, so let's get to the important stuff...

According to this link (via JE Skeets), Jamario Moon is a little girlie man:
There was some humor in the locker room after the game about Jamario Moon's skin cream. It was a very aromatic strawberry, filling the whole room, and it had several guys making jokes at Moon's expense. Said one person who shall remain nameless: "It smells like a girls locker room in here."

Nationally Televised Games:
Suns at Hornets: Chris Paul, you will be dearly missed for the next month or two. And of course, I won't get to see this game because NBA TV games are blacked out from NBA League Pass Broadband, but since the Suns are on the road, it probably is for the best...

All The Other Games:
Celtics at Wizards Generals Bullets: There's no way the Celtics can lose this one, right? Right? Yeah... Excuse me while I go check to see if my toaster's power plug is long enough to reach the bathtub...

Bucks at Heat: These two teams just played on Saturday, and the Heat lost, surprisingly pretty much nobody considering their randomness this year. Now, my question considering his 6-20 shooting performance Saturday: if D-Wade sits out this game with a sore back, does that make his team more or less likely to win?

Lakers at Grizzlies: After discussing scheduling with Wild Yams this weekend, I will say this much: I'm sure the NBA didn't intend on this being a bad draw on a back-to-back, but yes, it is. This is not a team you want to play on the road after a 1 point win over the Celtics just one day ago.

Kings at Nuggets: Poor, poor Sacramento. I really don't want them to get savagely destroyed again, but... the Purple Paupers, everybody! You don't need to be Lego Stephen Hawking to know they suck.

Mavericks at Jazz: This game is definately appointment viewing for me. Both teams are playing well right now. You know, side from Dallas letting Andre freaking Miller drop 52 on them this weekend. Other than that, they've looked great.

Bobcats at Frail Blazers: Speaking of whom... If I could put money on Andre Miller not scoring 50+ again in this game, I would take out a loan just to cover the value of the bet, assuming the odds were good. (Wait, you mean to tell me I'd have to bet $8000 to make $1 on that? Well, damn. So much for being able to retire before I turn 26 next month.)

Of course, the Nuggets are the ONE team that the paupers have consistently beaten so far...

(then watch as instead of following history, they'll get outboarded by 25 tonight.)

Well done on today's BAD.
1. That is probably the best manlove picture I've seen since the Vanilla Gorilla/Jeff Green pic that graces the banner. The crazed look on B. Diddy's just kills me.
2. Whoever came up with Lego Steven Hawking deserves an award.
3. You could probably get better odds that Andre Miller doesn't score 52 points total for the rest of the season.

That pic absolutely needs to be on the bawful banner from this point forward. HAS to.

Anonymous Ryan said...
Well, I don't know if it's featured before, but we've got a word of the night candidate - clippery (which would simply means bawful).

Blogger Dan B. said...
Will & BW -- I spent a solid minute this morning laughing out loud at that pic. It still slays me every single time I see it. Best picture of the season so far? Best picture of the season so far.

Those two sure look like they are caught in the act. Altough it's a bit difficult to get in an act to get caught in while on an nba-court during a game. Apparently it happens.

In other news: Nash does Avatar. Kinda. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8D9ksRJ5PY

Blogger Basketbawful said...
Dan B. -- Seriously, dude, where the HELL are you finding these pics?

Blogger chris said...
Bawful: So Dan's talent is finding epic photos, while mine is finding painfully obscure references to bawful, since-moved mid-market teams such as the Kansas City-Omaha Kings and Buffalo Braves.

No wonder he and I are best friends. :D

Blogger Dan B. said...
Bawful -- You'd be amazed at what you can find just by browsing the AP photo galleries for each game on ESPN.com. My other picture source is usually just the SI Vault twitter feed. Lucky for us, the NBA is a never-ending source of bawful pictures.

Please upload a picture of CAron Butler and Paul Pierce spooning right before halftime of the game today

sooo funny i was dying laughing

The heat are no longer the bipolar girlfriend. They just suck period. They were up 11-0 and got an anal fissure the rest of the game

Blogger Andrei said...
I don't think they have the spooning picture directly, but here's the sensual moment pre-spoon from the Wizards-Celtics game http://scores.espn.go.com/nba/photos/_/id/300201027/photoId/416207/boston-celtics-vs-washington-wizards

ANDREI MAN LOVE SPELUNKING EPIC WIN FTW!

Blogger Andrei said...
Dan B. you have just improved my quality of life immeasurably by pointing out the AP pictures from ESPN game summaries. Here's another gem of Steve Nash perhaps getting ready for a steamer: http://scores.espn.go.com/nba/photos/_/id/300201003/photoId/416310/phoenix-suns-vs-new-orleans-hornets

So, the Kings apparently seem to have enough of success with the Nuggets. Denver's on a 9-1 run in the 4th right now to take the lead.

Ugh.

Blogger chris said...
AND...the Kings may yet get a shot here, thanks to some clutch shots late by SPENCER HAWES?

Kevin Martin actually played defense against Big Shot Chauncey?!

Okay, overtime.

Blogger chris said...
And Sacramento is going to lose, breaking their win streak against the Nuggets AND putting up yet another moral victory.

They're now 3-18 since The Comeback, and if it wasn't already the case at the start of the year, it's obvious now: this season has degenerated from hopeful to bawful fast.

Unlike the Knicks, "having any free agent sign here" isn't exactly a realistic proposition here, regardless of record.

Great prediction on LA falling to the Griz. You should use your mindpowers for good instead of evil (like guessing Lotto numbers).

Is Blow-Pez going grey? Sure looks it in that photo. Poor bastard. It's not the losses that make you feel bad, it's that half the wins came against the Wolves and the Clippers.

Blogger AnacondaHL said...
The new ESPN boxscores are similar to NBA.com now, be sure to read the end of the 4thQ Lakers at Memphis, it's beautiful in it's anti-climax.

Show me this picture you talk about.

Blogger nacci said...
Um...you do know that the Raptors and Pacers played on Sunday, right?

Blogger Dan B. said...
Vasco -- I was just talking about the epic B-Dizzle manlove pic that leads this BAD post.

Anthony -- If a Raptors/Pacers game happens, and nobody cares about it, did it really happen? Hmm...
