Big Trouble in Little Texas

The two no longer happy couples

What the fuck is going on in San Antonio?  Why would Tony Parker cheat on Eva Longoria?  And did he really think he could fuck a teammate's wife and have no one find out?  Jesus, you dumbass frenchman, there's no way Barry's wife is nearly as hot as Eva.  Fucking idiots.
Really, I blame steffens.

Playoffs in Review: Game Re-Caps

So here I am, with the final match-up already halfway over, and I still haven't written anything about the first two rounds. This could be attributed to general laziness on my part, or fatigue from the blogging season wearing on, or disinterest after my team's elimination in Round 1. And all of those would probably be correct attributions. But another factor is that I'm also not exactly sure how to write these. Normally, I am guided by the team highs and lows for the week, the players that contribute the most on each team, and the individual leaders in each category. Suddenly, in the playoffs, all those factors have become less important. Everyone is so focused on just beating their opponent that being high or low in the league is basically irrelevant. Player contributions are obviously important, but with so much adding and dropping going on, the individual achievements have taken a backseat to the owners' ability to get a few key stats out of different guys each night. What I really needed was to keep a running log of what pick-ups worked and didn't, how the category match-ups played out over the course of the week, and how the owners reacted (or didn't) to try and snatch every win they could. I did none of those things. So these game re-caps might be a little under-informed, but I'll do my best.

Thursday Lunch Dump

A quick daily look at last night's highs and lows.

Hot Shit: Tyreke Evans, Unfrozen Caveman Bogut
.368 - .714 - 1 - 20 - 7 - 13 - 3 - 0

Loose Stool: Dwyane Wade, Call em Bullets
.308 - 1.000 - 0 - 10 - 3 - 1 - 2 - 0
This isn't a terrible line, but for Dwyane Wade, in the middle of championship week... it's a terrible line.

Shart: Terrence Williams, Teen Wolf
.450 - 1.000 - 2 - 21 - 5 - 9 - 0 - 1

Upper Decker: Mo Williams, Call em Bullets
.500 - .875 - 2 - 21 - 1 - 6 - 3 - 0
Odd, in that Bardey picked him up off the wire on Tuesday and then didn't start him on Wednesday.

Playoffs Round 1 & 2 in Review are coming later today.

Monday Morning Dump

A quick daily look at last night's highs and lows.

With last night's semi-final playoff match-ups coming down to the wire, there was perhaps no more important night in Cluj history to either bring it or stink up the joint. Let's see who did what:

Hot Shit: Dwyane Wade, Call em Bullets
.611 - .900 - 1 - 32 - 7 - 6 - 5 - 3

Loose Stool: Michael Beasley, Black Prezodents
.100 - NA - 0 - 2 - 3 - 0 - 0 - 0
Beating DeYoung and taking 5th place really meant something to me. Apparently, it didn't mean anything to the Beazer.

Shart: Kevin Love, WWTMD
.471 - 1.000 - 1 - 23 - 22 - 2 - 2 - 2
22 boards is a lot of boards. And gotta give KLove some love for the near Super-Duper.

Just Gas: Johnny Flynn, Unfrozen Caveman Bogut
.333 - 1.000 - 0 - 10 - 2 - 3 - 0 - 0
Darko's line for Teen Wolf was arguably worse, but he had two steals, the cat that Dekker managed to tie to take the match-up, so I can't think of him as Just Gas.

Hershey Squirts:
Ben Udrih, Cowboys
.353 - 1.000 - 0 - 18 - 10 - 15 - 2 - 0

Brandon Jennings, Power Bottom & Jelly
.417 - .857 - 3 - 29 - 7 - 8 - 4 - 0

NBA Trivia: Veteran Journeymen

This evening, while enjoying seeing my Blazers on national television, I was marveling over the longevity of Juwan Howard and Marcus Camby, and it occurred to me that they must have played together on some other team before. And that sent me to basketball-reference.com. And that got me looking at other veteran journeymen and their careers. And that got me thinking I could come up with a pretty entertaining trivia quiz based on the NBA's oldest and best-travelled players. Enjoy the questions after the jump, and the answers in the Comments.
