WHO SHOT MAMBA IPHONE

The YAYsports! NBA 07-08 Apathetic Preview

by The Cavalier on October 30, 2007 · 16 comments

Despite LeBron’s insistence that he’s all soldiered up to go to war, we’re firmly in “prove it” mode.

We’ve made the executive decision to watch tomorrow night, and will also watch all the TNT action this evening. Look, this used to be our favorite day of the year – we can’t help but get a little excited, or at the very least, intrigued.

(Plus Charles Barkley is already going off on Kobe. He also says the Cavs won’t even make the Playoffs. We’re not ready to be quite THAT down on them yet.)

(PLUS AGAIN, we’re now addicted to watching these “submit a question to Kenny, Ernie, and Charles” videos on YouTube. $24 to anyone who asks them “Who Shot Mamba?”)

Alas…previews, previews, previews. Between blogs, big portal sites, message boards, newspapers, and magazines, there are so many previews out that we almost get annoyed that they exist.

That may just be the uppityness of being us, but we can’t bring ourselves to do a massive preview series. What can we say that other people have spat out, analyzed, or rehashed countless times already?

Do you need to read more about what it means to have Kevin Garnett in BOS? Or how about some more Kobe trade speculation, and how it might affect the Lakers season? We’ll give a brief three words (and only three) on each team below.

But first, our final word on The City of Boston Red Socks and the annoying fans of The City of Boston. This sums it up – in a show of good sportsmanship, we called the WSM? director lasterday morning, who had gone back to BOS to be there if/when they won it all.

When asked how fun it was, he went into a long complaint of how it wasn’t as good as 2004, and all this other stuff that was askew and/or “not good enough” about winning the World Series. We hung up on him, and we did it in genuine contempt. It wasn’t to be funny or dramatic.

You Boston people are sick.

Here are your team 3-worders – we’re going off the top of our head, to see if we can remember all the teams. Hense the numbering. So in no particular order:

1) Cleveland Cavaliers: Bee Movie.
2) Philadelphia Seventy-Sixers: When two urgh.
3) San Antonio Spurs: Mill bark house.
4) Los Angeles Lakers:
5) Phoenix Suns: Name is Suns.
6) Seattle Supersonics: Okey rootin’ tootin’.
7) New York Knicks:

Y’know, this isn’t even fun. We shouldn’t have stuck that City of Boston Red Socks story in there – it’s just got us all fired up. We erased the ones we didn’t like and stopped at the Knicks. $440 to the person who can accurately guess what we erased – capitalization counts.

Rookie: Durant
Coach: Coach Stan
MVP: Duncan
Finals: Spurs over WSM?

your weirdo friend is not representative of the people of the City of Boston, who are all in the midst of a collective orgasm right now. if you don’t believe me, watch the parade.

So I was reading all this talk about WSM and its like blah, blah, blah, upcoming movie, blah, blah, blah. For the first time in my collective life, I’m not excited anymore. I think I am stuck in a “mayonaisse” – or something like that. Let’s see if I have this right: there is a movie, it has a snake, and no one seems to care. Hooray.

Amen, Jordi. Remember when visiting YAY was fun?

Despite LeBron’s insistence that he’s all soldiered up to go to war,

When does he ship out? Is he going to Iraq or Afghanistan?
