Well, it’s been like over a week since we’v posted anything, so we suppose we should get on with writing something, especially since it could very well be another week until you hear from us again.
Add to that we’ll be going to the folks’ place later this month for about ten days, and we’re really absentee around these parts.
(Should we call in the subs or just put the official “be back January 1st” sign up again? Would the subs come back after we berated them continually? Your call – let us know, if any of you are still here.)
Anyway, you’re not here to hear all these reasons you shouldn’t come here anymore – you’re here to read NBA informational blog posts. Here are the things we’ve picked up about the NBA so far this season; keep in mind the sum total of “minutes of NBA games watched this season” is roughly “17″:
1) LeBron leads in the NBA in scoring by a large margin. He’s also putting up triple-doubles and monster stats at an alarming rate. ON top of that, the Cavaliers are coming out of this month possibly above .500, which is admirable considering their schedule and other issues. These issues would be Anderson Varejao and Coach Mike’s “offense”. (Although it seems the defense is a problem now, as well?)
Has this inspired us to want to watch them? No. And don’t jump all over us for that – we’re not claiming it’s a rational stance. It’s just the ay we are – LeBron’s lax attitude last year destroyed our fandom. We leave the door open for him to earn it back, but he’ll have to keep up this effort for awhile longer.
2) Everyone hates Lamar Odom, or “Wow…Lamar has really been in the NBA for 8 (9?) years? And he’s pretty much exactly the same as he was as a rookie?
3) Gilbert Arenas is out for three months and gave himself a stupid new nickname. Sorry, the “Nacho” movement is contrived to us. As are thouse “wacky” Adidas commercials everyone is all loving. Contrived, contrived, contrived. We like Gil, but he needs to rethink the whole thing.
4) We went and saw Enchanted. Yeah, call us a girl. Go ahead. It was Thanksgiving and we were family-less, so we went with our sister, then we both cried about not having any family out here. Anyway, nice movie, which successfully poked fun at the Disney cartoon genre without outright mocking it.
We should note that we often confuse Enchanted star Amy Adams with Borat’s wife Isla Fisher, who was in Wedding Crashers.
Why we “should note that”, we don’t know. But we did it.
5) The Celtics continue to win, and Arnold shows up to their games sometimes. We almost wish we didn’t hate Boston so much, because this BOS team is awful intriguing, and they seem to be having fun.
6) We’re watching Michael Jordan’s Playground as we type this. No idea why – we’ve had that Ultimate Jordan DVD set for awhile, and decided to break it out finally. We must’ve watched this on VHS 800 times when we were a kid. It’s still awesome, even though there’s no way that midget Walt could make the team with the heavish jumper. We don’t care if that is Caine!
7) The Blackberry Curve and us are officially attached at the hip (or pocket, or via USB*, or whatever). This might be our favorite gadget we’ve ever had.
That’s like it. We’ve got nothing else. We’d go into the Knicks, but it’d take like 14 more bullet-points. We’ll let you know what’s gonna happen for the rest of the month asap. Thanks for your patience.
*In the future, you realize we’ll all have USB plugs in our necks or hips or something, right? Like the Matrix, but for good, not evil.

I don’t think the Yay! community is ready for Boney as a substitute teacher…
it’s been so long since I’ve posted on my own site, I think I forgot the password to log in…
No Boney, but someone. At least 2. And more jackcobra.
First the Cav is all “oh sure, you can be a sub”, then he is like “you’re a Mamba-hater, you hater-man”, now he is like, “oh, if you would like to come back, I’d love to have you”.
It’s like Kobe Bryant, but like in reverse. Or maybe it isn’t.
that’s ok, I know I have fans somewhere…
Rethink your stance. Do it. 30-8-8. Plus, he’s blocking shots and making guys look silly. Watching them isn’t a chore this year, I swear (doesn’t hurt that Larry Hughes is out. Again).
My parents are gonna get it, and when I go home for Xmas for 10 days, it’ll be a nice trial run. Wouldn’t have time to watch them between now and late December anyway.
THIS JUST IN: Bulls have a worse record than the Knicks.
James Dolan is our owner and Isiah is our GM, Bulls fans. What’s YOUR excuse, other than being purely a jumpshooting team w/o a low-post presence?
They should trade Ben Wallace for Tyson Chandler – he’d be a nice fit on that team.
Cavs have a tough time doing two things at once – like playing offense and defense. I’m assuming the defense will come around . . . ?
the Bulls should offer PJ Brown a 5 year, $60 million dollar deal…
What’s YOUR excuse, other than being purely a jumpshooting team w/o a low-post presence?
I believe that’s our excuse. We have nowhere else to go.
i watched that game (with three hour grimmace).
the knicks barely won and bulls were without luol deng.
the knicks have a better record, but the bulls are the better team, really.
even though that is hardly an endorsement…
Didn’t Mr.Sudan play in that game? Like really, I thought he did?
Do the subs again so I can be laughed at for my contribution like last year.
Or an all frat Delta Epsilon post when we are like, drunk and stuff and Stillajew admits that if he had to do it with one NBA player it would be Raja Bell. And we’d be all “Gross dude, I wouldn’t do it with a guy!†and he’d be like “F U you said I HAD to do it with someone.†And I’d be like naw dude you love Raja Bell…wait…I’m drunk rite now…haha…awesome.
ha, you got mad because I said teams that wear purple suck…
you’re stupid
Pouring out a little liquor in advance of the blog suicide,
Tony P.
I’m dropping Tony Parker from my fantasy team and picking up Penny Hardaway. Spurs are still boring, that’s why the only people in America who care that they won last year are the citizens of San Antonio. Keep talking shit, no one cares.
^Except you cared enough to respond. Nice work, pickle kisser, and thanks for proving my point. Something about you tells me you’re a drooler. SP stands for what, Some Prick?
At least Tony Parker stepped his smack game up a little since last time when he got run by Jeremiah, dude was left talking to himself mumbling C&Ping everything people ran about him and then responding like some dear Abby column. Still uses an arrow though…let it go Tony, we know what you are refrencing. Overall score B- which is much better than the previous D .
Still no props for the handle though dude, skeezing some famous frenchy dudes name is pretty lame.
Raja Bell out.
P.S. And I wouldn’t do it with him! You said if someone put a gun to my head! I freakin hate you! I’m glad my people killed your Jesus! Merry Christmess everyone!
I could use a sub right now. Especially one with roast beef, lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, and a long kosher pickle for Stillajew.
nice, Jordi is joining in on the anti-semitic talk! I love it!
How come no post on the passing of Sean Taylor? I haven’t been able to read anyone’s feelings on the matter
The Cavalier is racist…
The Cavalier doesn’t care about football people.
I wonder what Jordi hates more, the fact we killed his Christ or the fact my handle is all in Caps?
oh… my bad
it must be hard to be a football fan when “Cleveland Blind Homer” is etched into your brain…
STILLAJEW, you didn’t kill my christ. I don’t own that man, he is his own man.
I think Jordi is mad that your name is in all caps… I kinda like your name being in all caps because when I type it out in all caps you can’t tell if I’m being sarcastic or not
Boney, I didn’t get mad at you because you initially said people who wear purple suck, I got mad cause I called you on it, how gay it was to even bring up choice of team color and you actually tried to defend it rather than admit it was retarded.
I am angry that STILLAJEW trumped me as the only jewish person posting on this blog(albeit infrequently, but that will change; HOORAYY Cavs season!!!!)For serious TP, go back to France and do something crepe related (rap about them??). And about Anderson, per 850 in Cleveland, his tenure in Cleveland is absolutely done. Per his agent, he will not re-sign with the team and feels absolutely disrespected for the offer the Cavs put on the table. I say good riddance. Anderson does bring intensity but his value to the team is waaaaaayy overhyped. He brings 6-6 a night has no jump shot- last year his scoring was predicated on running a pick and roll and benefitting from Lebrons astute passing ability. And to SP, be fair, there really are no other teams aside from Las Angeles, Boston, and New York that would make run of the mill basketball fans care about who is winning in the NBA. I wish this werent true, but perception is reality and all the media cares about are the left and right coast. PS, fuck Boston, fuck its fans and fuck any team associated with that city/greater New England area. Sure its cool that Allen, Pierce and Garnett are playing together, but Im simply not going to get all mushy if this trend of winning continues through next May.
Well then you have another reason to hate me Ben cause not only are you not the only Jew posting on this website but I’m also from Worcester MA. Beware the East coast jew and our fandom. Especially when we are enjoying watching the Pats, Sox and Celtics comfortably from our dorm room at ASU in a nice 76 degree AZ winter.
stillajew, I care not that people of your faith killed Christ, or that they owned the Harlem Globetrotters. I could care less. Besides being from MA, you seem like a respectable tyke. Why, in your mindless banter I even read shades of myself in yesteryear.
THAT SAID, you really need to type your name like a normal person. First letter in caps, the rest in lower case. Unless you are an emo 14-year old gIrL.
He totally just called you a fag.
Emo Qoute: “I’ts the two thousands, can’t a guy kiss 1 or 11 guys with out being gay?”
I can hear Bullet For My Valentine or Avenged Seven Fold blasting from his Ipod now.
excellent use of punctuation Jordi!
Jeremiah,
You obviously missed my entire sarcastic spasm during your initial Steve Nash reach-around love fest that you provided to one “The Cavalier”.
Of course citing the color purple as a reason why a team has never won a championship is a lame attempt at trying to trump you but then again, only one douche stepped up and said the Lakers used to win them all the time. Obviously you, unlike STILLAJEW, do not understand nor comprehend sarcasm.
That is all,
B.
Dude your spelling sucks.
Qoute?
And it’s Haste the Day I’m listening to.
Coming from the guy that was running up and down the dorm halls yesterday wearing only a towel and a Sox hat singing “High Way to the Danger Zone” into your fake micro phone; I’d say that’s an unqualified statement.
P.S. Look Jordi I’m slowly cutting back on my use of caps!
Andersons /- was best for 22nd in the league last year, according to Stein or whoever on ESPN. So to say he’s a chump is pretty damn stupid.
Dude, Boney, I got it, like a year ago. Don’t make me hate you all over again. It took me like 3 months the last time.
You had me at fags wear purple…
And singing songs from Top Gun is NOT gay! There is nothing more manly than a finely greased mens shirtless volleyball match in slow mo…tio…n….holly crap am I gay?
Nooooooo!
And the next time I high five you in the hall you better do the circle five down low like they do in Top Gun or I’m gonna punch you in the balls.
I’ll remember that the next time I’m doing your lady friend.
“Call me Maverick baby…oooh yeah…call me Goose!”
I’m athiest.
Your quibbles over your various bearded fictional deities amuses me.
You know what they say about athiests right? Child molesters. It’s not just a catholic thing.
“At least Tony Parker stepped his smack game up a little since last time when he got run by Jeremiah”
Nice to know I have fans other than zack kay. I can’t remember the last time (other than yesterday) I was on this mess, much less what was said. You must be referencing to one of the 300 beefs I’ve started and abandoned just as quickly.
You see, what geeks like you who lurk for a year then create anti-christian aliases to get over fail to realize is there is a concept out there in the real world called a “Life”, which pretty much rules out commenting at a certain frequency. Try it out sometime schnozzola, cause while im out being social youre on here with some kind of creepy Rome schtick rating font on a screen then doing the five knuckle shuffle to some pr0n. B-? In that case, and using your diluted thinking, your response was a Zzzzzzz. Oh and congrats on being retard number 278 who thinks I ripped my name from some overrated French weiner. And I just keep stringing these puppets along….
Your pal,
Tony P.
P.S. Hope you do well at All Shitforbrains University. Got any advice on what real estate I should invest in?
I didn’t know they say that, but damn they must be watching me closely.
And to any other “clones” who will no doubt try and defend Mr. Midget Brains, keep in mind I won’t be reading anymore fan mail.
Your Italian Stallion,
Tony P.
Hey Cav, it’s true. I looked it up. Don’t know what “watching me closely” was supposed to mean though. Hmm….
cause while im out being social youre on here with some kind of creepy Rome schtick rating font on a screen then doing the five knuckle shuffle to some pr0n.
Classic lol….
A)Dude banks me for some Rome schtick, when dude thinks he is Rome and when I do it, it’s to mock him but he obviously doesn’t pick up on that
B)Don’t let him fool you, he called out Jeremiah on something a few weeks ago and got made a fool, and it wasn’t even close, dude looked retarded. I’ve also seen Jordi make Frenchy look stupid as well. Jordi and Jeremiah are the best runners on this blog hands down.
C) Calling my response boring was fine, I talk shit very rarely. I wasn’t calling him out. I was just commenting on how his smack improved a bit. But that last run was so contradictory I’m not sure if he’s being sarcastic or if he’s just stupid. I’ll leave the smack to Jordi and Jeremiah and occasionally Cobra when he smacks Boney when he’s in a bad mood.
D)The guy has the same lines over and over and over again. He’s been regurgitating lines about peoples sisters and moms and masterbation. Have you ever seen anyone ever battle? The people that regurgitate shit like that get bood off the stage. No one cares how many jokes you can remember, it’s all about dissin the guy in front of you. Just keep your mouth shut before you look retarded again.

we got it the first time… douche
I enjoy how people rate /- as if it actually means something. This isn’t hockey where 1 or a -1 are a big deal… Anderson is a joke of a basketball player, and is best suited anywhere but an NBA basketball court.
Carlo, saying he is a chump is not stupid. He brings 6-6 a night and overrated defense. Those numbers do not justify ANYONE paying him what Drew Gooden and other comparable PF are getting paid (see Chandler, Aldridge, Okafer). Anderson might have some upside, but he has shown no light of having a midrange J or beinging able to man up other big guys. Right now, he is an energy guy who last year took advangtage of a call that the league was officiating waaaaaay too liberally. Would it be nice to have him off the bench? Sure. But Devon Brown has done an admirable job coming off the bench and giving the defense the flexibility to have him guard a 1-4. He also turns the ball over less and provides a lot more skills on the offensive end. This Varejao business is exhausted and this post should be the last instance people squawk about us resigning him and notching another outrageous contract done by Danny Ferry. In Ferry’s defense, at least hes not John Paxson. Thanks for mortaging our 1st round picks (sans Shannon Brown) for next to nothing until 2009. Hopefully Ferry just sits on it and puts together a sign and trade at the end of this season (this is predicated on whether we can get value for him, if we dont, let him walk. We have nothing invested in him and it should stay that way indefinitely)
besides, Varejao shouldn’t get Darko Milicic money until he’s able to at least dribble a basketball before it dribbles off his foot and goes out of bounds…
Boney, yes and yes to both of your retorts on Varejao. The +/- in basketball is horrendously overrated. BTW, are you looking forward to some meaningful games between the Wings and my Blue Jackets come next spring? Hockey is not a big thing here in Ohio except for the diehards like myself but its getting exciting with Columbus showing sings of life. Personally, I am hoping the rival builds to something fierce if CBJ can keep improving. That is almost a given considering we have Hitch at the helm.
