Is Earl Boykins attempting to breakdance, or QWOPing? Ah, college. Choking away a lead that Bill James would consider essentially insurmountable.
Complete and total basketbawful.
Worst of the Night in Pictures:Chris Kaman: Amateur Chiropractor "Man, your jersey is so fresh! What fabric softener is that?" Yeah, pretty much. I think we can all understand why Nenad Krstic is not happy I think DeAndre Jordan just made Dick Bavetta crap his pants Nationally Televised Games:Lakers at Heat, TNT, 7pm: Devastating news for Heat fans --
Zydrunus Ilguaskas plans to retire after this season. Oh no! What will they ever do without him??
Knicks at Mavericks, TNT, 9:30pm: What's Chauncey Billups' status, coach Mike D'Antoni? "When he's ready, he's ready." Okay then. A graduate of the
Ivan Drago School for Public Speaking I see.
All The Other Games:Nuggets at Suns, 10:30pm: All offense, all the time. It's going to be like watching a couple teenagers playing NBA 2K11, running the floor and taking shots early in the clock every possession.
Excellent video worth watching: behind the scenes of Steve Nash's "Where Amazing Happens" commercial.

That said, man the guy is DONE. He was such a detriment at times this year.
Even the year they beat the Lebron Cavs twice in the season I really wasn't all that impressed by their performance.
I'm not trying to reverse jinx the Lake show but I wouldn't be surprised if the Heat spank them tonight.
@Kazam
You've been a real sport about the Heat's struggles this year, well deserved props to you by bawful and the rest of the gang.
I don't know about you but I kinda expect Spo to give Z lots of minutes tonight. Pau has a well documented history of struggling against him and setting camp outside of the painted area. Expect to see a lot of Z on Pau when Bynum is not on the floor.

Couldn't agree more with Paul. Your comments are always entertaining, and you never get snippy because people pick on (in good fun, of course) the Heat so much. Props.
Hell, I'd be overjoyed if the Craptors had their problems. "We don't know if we can beat the top teams in the playoffs". Uhh.. hey guys, what the fuck are "playoffs"?
Oh well, this Friday's game against Indiana should be suitably entertaining - two teams hitting rock, rock bottom! And they're giving us our season tickets cheaper next year, on account of their giant, flaming suckitude.
Sweet.
Another "big" in-season lost, I'm so used to this shit now.
At least the rollerskating-into-the-stairs dinos HAVE a next year. :p

The Heat beat the Lakers...which doesn't say a lot for LA does it?
Up until the last three minutes when the Lakers couldn't defend a layup to save their lives and the refs threw up their IQs with missed hacks and ignoring offensive interference by Ilgauskus, it was a damn entertaining game. I expected the Lakers to lose (this game meant more to the Heat and something was going to give) but for pete's sake, if you're going to do late-game reviews come up with some rules that actually make sense.
Yeah yeah, Lakers fan complaining about refereeing, sue me. I'm right.
Lastly, kazam92, you're one of my favorite posters here and I echo what others have said about being a great sport through your team suddenly becoming so hated.
Classic "marijuana" feel good win for the Heat. All of the talk about not winning close games, who better to win a close game against?
Pretty sure that was a goal tend by big Z, but LA had about 5 different chances to score late, and gagged on all of them.
Still, nice to see that ten years later, Mike Bibby still OWNS Derek Fisher.
SUCK IT WILD YAMS! BWAHAHAHAHAH 2-0!
Oh you guys do not know how good this felt. Key play was LeBron setting that monstrous pick for Wade.
This boosts morale way up, but we got Grizz, Spurs (who Bonner'd us in the ass) and Thunder coming up. I hope to god this is a turning point.
Oh and the point I made about Ilgauskus, I think he demonstrated it tonight. He had some tip ins, but was otherwise awful. Yet, we still needed him because of his length vs Bynum/Gasol. Lakers had a legit complaint about that offensive interference.
They face a fully healthy Heat team and lose.
Anyone know the Lakers record against elite teams? I know the Heat's just as bad.
And when that happens- we all win!
Let's see, just taking into account the top 4 seeds in each conference, off the top of my head, Lakers are 1-1 against Boston, 0-1 against Dallas, 1-2 against the Spurs, 1-1 against Chicago, 2-0 against OKC, 0-2 against Miami, 0-1 against Orlando. That's 5-8.
A legit 7 footer, going against not-so-solid big men on the Heat and he's basically just a diversion/flood spreader. I didn't see the game, pure box score-journalism this.
We have man love too in our boring and beloved football, aka soccer there at the USA, perhaps not the most conventional one, but still. Hard love could it be.
Enjoy
