Lakers 99 Magic 86:Kobe Bryant says all the You can’t win without Shaq talk was like “Chinese water torture.” Kobe Bryant says it was annoying. Kobe Bryant says he would cringe every time heard it. Just water dripping on his forehead. One drop at a time. Drip. Drip. Drip. Well, it’s all water off a Mamba’s back now. Now it’s like all those 1918 chants Red Sox fans had to endure. Now, all that talk stops. Read More »

It ain’t me, babe. No, no, no, it ain’t me, babe. It ain’t me you’re lookin’ for, babe. -Bob Dylan
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! We’ve all been sitting around waiting for the next Michael Jordan. Begging for the next Michael Jordan. We’ve all been sitting around the Eastern Gate waiting and begging for the next Michael Jordan to come along riding in on his white horse to perform many great signs and wonders. Many folks in Los Angeles believe all the while, he has already been running the running the rock donning the Purple and Gold. Many folks in Los Angeles are wrong. Read More »

I can see that Def Jam doesn’t recognize me. I’m Mike D the one who put the satin in your panties. Time to count MC’s in this place to be. Not five, not four, not two, just three. -Beastie Boys
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! You all know about Kobe. You all know about he rootinest tootinest gun in the West. You know about him. Do you know about the other guys? No, not BF Goodrich. Pau Gasol and Lamar Odom. But odd as it may be, without my one and two where would there be, my three? Lamar, Pau and me. And that’s the magic number. Read More »

Grizzlies 104 Rockets 93: In every class, there’s always one joker who thinks that he’s smarter than me. In this class, that happens to be you. Isn’t it, Mayo-naise? OJ Mayo is smarter than just about everybody in his class. Read More »

So come y’all and attend this affair as we journey to the Promised Land, and I’ll take you there. Yes, I’ll take you there. -Big Daddy Kane
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! I know I’m not the only one writing about Kobe Bean Bryanttoday. Not the lonely one writing about Kobe Bean Bryant today. Not the eau de cologney one. I don’t care. Neither does Kobe. What does he care that Andrew Bynum is out. Yes Virginia, over the ten days prior to sustaining the injury Bynum ranked among the NBA leaders in rebounds per game (tied for lead), points per game (4th), field-goal percentage (5th), and blocked shots (3rd), but did you see the Mamba last night? Sweet sassy molassy!

Lakers 119 Wizards 97: Kobe? Who needs Kobe when you’re playing the Wizards? Clearly, not the Lakers. Last night, the Mamba scored a meager eleven points in a paltry twenty-eight minutes of play. It was the first time in almost a year that Bryant failed to reach the 20-point mark in consecutive games. He scored a scant eighteen points against the Clippers on Wednesday night. The Clips without Camby and The Wiz without Arenas allow such things. Read More »

Lean on me, when you’re not strong, and I’ll be your friend. I’ll help you carry on. For it won’t be long, ’til I’m gonna need somebody to lean on. -Bill Withers
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! We all wanted this to be a slugfest. A heavyweight punch you in the mugfest. Ali v. Frazier. LaMotta v. Robinson. Hagler v. Hearns. It wasn’t. It turned into something else. It turned into the other guy. It turned into Ken Norton. In turned into Larry Holmes. Jimmy Ellis. Guys like that there. Guys like Pau Gasol. Read More »

Mano y mano. Manos de Piedra. Fight to the finish. They’re strong to the finish ’cause they eat their the spinach. Get your popcorn ready!
