Remember how we said we were gonna have a hard time getting back behind LeBron and the Cavaliers due to their lack of interest in their own exploits during their season?
Here’s how our experience with their series clinching win over WAS went last night. Turn on Tivo to game. Watch two minutes. Turn off, check internet for score. Terry Pluto is optimistic…we’re apathetic, just like NBA players!
Sports Media Challenge has somehow named YAYsports! NBA the second most influential NBA blog in existence on this Earth. Here’s the press release. We’re not going to deny our power of the broadband nation, of course, although we would’ve felt more worthy last year.*
That bastard Jeff at Celticsblog finds his placement at #3 intolerable, only because he’s right behind us, thus completing the circle of life.
DAL coach Avery Johnson has come to the harsh realization that Dirk is a scared, scared, scared young man.
The Association tries out the Wade 2.0, with it’s silky smooth line and erotic sole patterns.
Robert Horry hit some big shot to give the Spurs the 3-1 lead over the Nuggets. The Big Lead correctly calls him “Big Shot ROB”, as opposed to the “Big Shot BOB” ESPN changed it to somewhere.
You’ve probably already seen this, but Bruce Willis was drunk and doing R-rated promotions for the new Die Hard at the Nets game the other night.
Speaking of…movies we’re most excited to see this summer:
1) Spider-Man 3
2) Live Free and Die Hard
3) Pireates of the Carribean: At World’s End
4) Who Shot Mamba?
5) Transformers
Detroit Bad Boys points out that the Central Division is 12-0 so far this postseason, something that mathematically cannot continue due to the DET-CHI series.
The Rockets are now up 3-2 over the Jazz, and that series is simply destined to go 7, yet be completely overlooked as boring for some reason.
The Celtics explain how they each plan to get better this summer. BTW what Paul Pierce means when he says “get better defensively” is actually “quietly ask for a trade when we get the 4th pick in the draft”.
Phil Jackson is weird. Lakers practice on Monday consisted of watching a little bit of Hustle and Flow, then sending everyone home. Seriously, it was in the newspaper and everything.
As for tonight…
GO WARRIORS. (There’s no way we’re not watching this game tonight.)
GO NETS. (Let’s just make this CLE-NJN series official so the paranoia can go into full bloom.)
*Are we too hard on ourself? The self-deprecation too much? We’re just trying to be objective about our own work. We’re nothing if we’re not honest with you people. For example – this will be our only post for about 7 hours, minimum. More than likely, it’s our only post until tomorrow!

Transformers below WSM? That’s not right.
By the way, this is turning into the most self-reflective introspective blogs out there. IF you are not happy, how excited should I be of my blog, where the only daily visitors are my dad and one friend?
Jordi – I went to your blog. I voted it most influential blog I saw for the first time today.
As to the Cav, following the Cavs makes you bipolar.
Yes it gives you the crazies.
Go Warriors.
Your movie list is upside down … $500 MILLION on Spidey 3 doesn’t bode well (nor does this line from a piece about S3: “But aware that the third installment would be his last, Raimi tried to be more open to ideas from the film’s six producers.” … ugh) … waited way too long to make a third ‘Die Hard,’ the second ‘Pirates’ was made for 6-year-olds and thus I have no hope for the third one. ‘Transformers’ is going to be over-the-top nonsense, which is exactly what it should be.
Yeah that worried me about the Spider-Man movie, also. I hope a bunch of crap doesn’t feel plugged in for the sake of marketing and such.
there’s an usher vs. jay-z joke somewhere in the impending nets/cavs series. i’m just not funny enough to come up with it.
seriously, though, if “wow, my akward jumpshot is falling tonight!” jason kidd shows up, then yeah, you should be worried. he already seems good for 11-15 rebounds and assists EVERY game.
they still have one more game to win, so i’ll stop short of jinxing them.
I have yet to see any WSM? toys at any fast food restaurants.
Influential.
your Nets reverse jinx means nothing to El Teammates du Nenad. NOTHING, you hear me???
dick.
Speaking of Bruce Willis, anyone see the new photos for the upcoming Vanity Fair? Bruce looks like he is 112 years old and he’s doing his best old man and the sea impression as he’s fishing on his boat. Meanwhile, just inches from him is Ashton w/ Demi on his lap and they’re snuggling/kissing. At some point it’s got to dawn on you that he’s plowing your ex-wife, doesn’t it?
The Tar Heel: Die Hard 3 = a recognition of the very thing you mentioned … “Hey … Demi … I’m still cool”
this actually the fourth die hard.
transformers will be the best movie ever about a yellow camaro named Bumblebee.
Really? Good lord
I’m going to take Boki Nachbar, for the WIN!
I’m with Roger, I’m not sure following the Cavs is good for your health
the al pacino any given sunday speech inspires me… mavs in 7
El Leg du Nenad.
Prediction? Jason Kidd’s wife will run out onto the court tonight and bash his knee in Kerrigan style!!
i’m getting the distinct feeling that i’m gonna die without seeing any more discussion by the cavalier regarding “weirdo nba player-on-man ‘cake action’”?
sigh.
woah, wait a minute kilbane…
first the cavalier mentions that he wanted to change this a new hampshire sausage discussion…
and now you’re reminding me of this hot “player on man CAKE! action”???
The Cavalier, there are 12 step programs for this…
Jason Kidd’s bones are unbreakable, especially on the off-chance that he and Richard Jefferson have a full-speed knee-bone-to-knee-bone collision.
Let me just say one thing: I’m Back. With that out of the way, my 2 month hiatus had alot to do with me being in some legal trouble regarding, of course, driving and sipping. I won’t get into the details, needless to say tho that I got off pretty easy (and not in the way you’re thinking, perv). Second of all, that substitue thing was an abomination. An abotion, atrocious, abysmal, miserable. Granted I only checked in 3 times over the last 2 months, but man was it bad. Bad posts, bad comments, just bad overall with the “substitutes” (one in particular, I bet you can guess who I’m ranting about) doing nothing but promoting something they currently attribute to (meaning things no one cares about) with shameless passion. No offense to those poor souls who stuck with it tho. You are a trooper, Cav. You are a trooper. I have a new found respect for you after that debacle.
With that out of the way…..wow. Nothing makes me happier than seeing what was fed to us as THE GREATEST TEAM IN THE HISTORY OF BASKETBALL being down 3-1 to a team that wasn’t even in the playoffs till game 81. Great job, really. If anything this proves how laughably overrated Avery Johnson is. I see some dopes are still holding out hope. God bless you people, cause really, you need it. Hopefully when the Mavs are sitting around (or mowing lawns) during the summer they get a chance to check out the Spurs/Rockets in the WCF. Then The Little General will most probably Tivo the Spurs/Bulls Finals trying to find new plays and new defensive rotations to steal from Pop. Oh it’s true, it’s damn true.
This ones to Fatty (otherwise known as Boney, cause you know, I’ve seen the pics): How dare you discredit the 2 time MVP, 3 time Finals MVP, overrall greatest power forward in the history of basketball by saying he’s a whiner. The nerve. You got the biggest jagoff in the history of the game on your team in The Old Grey Spot. The man leads the leagues in technicals ever year. F’ing A. I do wish to remain friendly tho (but not really). Your wit rivals that of Colin Quinn. I’ll let you figure out if thats a good or a bad thing. See ya Friday.
I’d give anything to lay with a girl, it’s been so long since i’ve touched a breast
The Cavalier’s been gone for half of the season and yet still is one of the most influential bloggers? Welcome back man. Where’s the BDP?
I believe a U-Haul truck gained sentience and commandeered him.
Oh, not only was I gone for half the season, but 90% of the time I was here, I showed nothing but utter contempt for both my favorite team and the league as a whole!
Wow. Boney almost prophesized.
Is it Croshere time?
And is there a more random pairing of high school teammates then Baron Davis & Austin Croshere? While we’re at it: God Shamgod.
Go Pistons.
The true question is…did anyone on Earth pick GSW in 5?
Dirk hit the 2 luckiest 3’s I have ever seen. The Basketball Gods hate underdogs this is evidence…..I watched the whole damn game and almost felt like I was a GS fan. They played their asses off and then bam. Ugh.
Wow, what a collapse. It was looking like the Warriors lost all momentum when Dallas came back, but then Stephen Jackson got ejected. Should be a mildly interesting game in Oakland…
Hey Mr. Jones is back!
As if anyone cares why Tony Parker was not commenting. What a dope.
The last foul on Davis made me throw up all over my new carpet.
It’s live free Or die hard, not AND die hard
You would need an industrial powered version of me to remove the dust from Joe’s seldomly used package.
Yipeekiyay motherfucker.
