YAYsports! NBA

What can we say that we haven’t already said? It’s over as of next season.

How do we feel? Eh. Not like anything, really. LeBron stopped wearing these months ago, although we should add we had a dream last night about him playing in bright red ones.

In fact, we already said our farewell to tights last month. We bowed out early - the joke was over. Allow us to quote from that very post in case you’ve forgotten.

That’s it - we’ve said all we can…and we’re tired of it. ESPN and everyone else can run with the tights now. Let it always be known - the tights era was started right here, and we’ve said all we can to let you know they look freaking ridiculous. We will always think they look ridiculous - this isn’t Hammer Pants or flannel shirts or heroin any of the other trains we hopped on in middle school.

Truth be told, we didn’t wear Hammer Pants until high school - we were behind on that one. There - we’re a liar. Happy now?

Here’s everything we’ve ever written about tights - from Kobe’s November bout with cold air through this morning. This is not a time to cry or mourn…no, this is a day to look back fondly on these leggings that gave us all such joy and a mention in the Wall Street Journal.

Someone named Marcus Slaughter has declared for the draft. (Insert Simmons-esque Blazers joke here.)

Some nerd is the Rockets’ new GM.

Something to do with Return of the Jedi, Rashard Lewis, FreeDarko, and fantasy sports.

Need4Sheed thinks back to the days of the Bad Boys. We’ve thought about them recently, too. In 15-20 years, which Isiah Thomas will you remember more?

If you sent in a sidebar ad, it’ll be up this weekend. Don’t forget -we’re posting tomorrow. Not only is there an afternoon Cavs-Heat game, but it’s the first day of April…and a whole new era.
