Oddly enough, it took Alvin Gentry 55 years to discover he has fingers

Over the weekend, my buddy Jeff and I took a quick roadtrip up to Toledo, Ohio for a stock car race. After seeing countless righteous vans and rusted trucks with plywood tailgates, we got to our hotel just in time to see Stan Van Gundy get obliterated by Kevin Garnett, complete with that tremendous slow-motion replay from the floor level camera. You have no idea how happy this made me.

Worst of the Weekend in Pictures:

Steve Nash is such a badass that he transmitted the pain from his jacked-up nose to Jason Richardson just so Richardson could appreciate how much of a badass he really is

All The Games:
Magic at Celtics - ESPN, 8:30pm
Celtics lead series 3-0

Boston fans know not to get too comfortable with a 3-0 lead. Just look at the epic collapse by the Bruins in the NHL Eastern Conference Semifinals this year. They blew a 3-0 series lead against a Flyers team that practically had to put ads on Craigslist for a starting goalie thanks to the injury bug. However, this Boston basketball team looks a little more motivated, a little more disciplined, and a little less complacent than that Bruins team. The Magic are the ones who look like they don't really want to be there. If you didn't know this article was on a satire-only site, you might actually believe it for a minute.

"That better be a playbook in your pockets, because I am not happy to see you. Wait a minute, the Magic offensive playbook can't be bigger than...oh noooo"

I love the fact that STaT is massaging Nash's shoulders.

By the time this playoffs are over for the Suns, Nash will have turned into Mr. Potato Head! Removable nose and everything!

This guy deserves so much respect for being bitch slapped game in and game out and never said an ouch or faded a la Carmelo Anthony

Nash is the ultimate badass. Not only does he snap his nose back into place, he also drains 4 free throws to ice the game. Super...ultimate...badass

That is all.

btw, you know the links on the right have links to sites that are no longer operating, and you have multiple ones? Phoenix Suns rising is no longer in operation, but its on there three times!

Love the site, but just wanted to point that out.

"It was ugly before the game, it's still ugly after the game."

Sometimes athletes deserve shoutouts for humility. Liked the post.

I think it was Jeff Van Gundy who just said, "The Magic's problem on offense is their passing game."

Too bad that was said as the REAL problem with their offensive game manifested itself, with Pumaman missing another pair of charity stripe shots!

The demise of the Lakers and Suns championship aspirations may have been greatly exaggerated. As so eloquently posted by Karc yesterday, "Can we just hand the title to Boston at this point? Seriously, who's going to beat them?..Suns don't have a chance against a team that actually plays some defense...And Boston will bitchslap the Lakers in 5"

So after the Celtics were basically crowned champions yesterday on basketbawful, I thought it better to be skeptical to say the least. Orlando tried everything they could to give them the game/series and how did Boston respond? Pierce turnover at the end of regulation, 6 total points in OT, 2 crucial off. rebounds put in by Howard, multiple turnovers, 8-26 in the 4th and OT (including 2-10 in OT) for 24 total points, 3 straight bricked 3 pointers in the last 30 sec, 92 pts in 53 minutes, 42% shooting....AT HOME!!! Did they steal Atlanta's playbook for the end of that game?

Now i dont think the Magic are going to come back to win this series, but are we sure the Celtics are the '10 champions already? Seriously? As impressive as their defense has been, last time i checked, you still got to score points to win games. That offense was really hard to watch at points in the game. Lets see if defense truly does win championships like the cliche goes because Phoenix and Lakers are 1 and 2 in ORtg respectively. But in the words of Mr. Bawful, "Like always, Im just saying.
