Down to the Wire




It all comes down to this. First off, I like the Heat. I think DWade is arguably the 2nd best player in the league behind Kobe. That makes LeBron 2b in a somewhat virtual tie with Wade, but giving the edge to DWade because he has actually won in dramatic fashion unless LBJ. That being said, what in the FFFFFUUUUUCCCCKKKK is wrong with these guys? This is pathetic that Miami looks so good in spurts and looks so terrible in others. Dallas shot 13-19 on 3s, but how many were wide open 3s after terrible switches or lost assignments after clogging the lane? Why are you crowding the lane against a team that has ZERO slashers? Stay at home, Dallas would have to beat me 1on1 all day before I help on defense. Will Dallas shoot this good again, probably so if they are wide open. 


5 Ways for Miami to Come Back
1. Leave Mike Bibby in Dallas. Give him the wrong flight information. Leave him in the hotel. Let him oversleep on the flight and make sure he makes the next flight to Alaska. He is virtually worseless right now. He has no confidence in his shot, couldn't go by Jason Kidd if he had quiksand, and is only decent on defense. Not to say Chalmers is that much of an upgrade but he has been pretty decent on offense. Bibby's minutes have decreased to 15 mins a game, why not bring that off the bench instead of the 1st quarter? 
2. In addition to coming off the bench, throw more flame throwers at Dallas. Can we get a James Jones sighting? Why wouldn't throw House/Bibby/Jones in some kind of simple rotation of whoever is hot? Neither is as bad of a defensive liability as Peja who is buried on Dallas bench.


3. Give Chris Bosh some football gloves in the 3rd/4th quarter like a QB in cold weather. He has been better than expected this series but he is who we thought he was. A role player. A soft guy. He is the modern day Horace Grant without the goggles and the great defense. But he has been invisible in the 3rd to 4th quarter. 


4. Get DWade the ball. He is obviously the only one on the court that is ballin the entire game. He has to be looking at his teammates wishing he had Shaq and Gary Payton right now. 


5. Bring in Hakeem Olajuwon to teach LeBron some offensive moves IMMEDIATELY. If he can help Dwight Howard, he has to be able to teach this guy at least 3 post moves over the weekend. James has got to want to shed the label of Quitness, a front runner, and momma's boy and force this series to 7 games and win. He can't just win now, he has to dominate and be special if he ever wants to crack top 10 greatest ever. Like his tweet, it is NOW "Now or never."


In other news, Floyd "Coward" Mayweather has yet to respond to this diss track by Manny "Pound-for-Pound" Pacquiao.





This fight will never happen. Mayweather is the undisputed king of running. Recent reports have him linked to Bin-Laden and the two alledgedly wrote a book "The Art of Hiding." It clearly will be a best seller. Fake Freddie Roach getting his Delonte West on in the video. At the 1:50 min mark, it gets hella funny.

Run Floyd Run: Pacman is the Best

“I don’t know how you all see it, but when it comes to the children, Wu-Tang is for the children. We teach the children. You know what I mean? Puffy is good, but Wu-Tang is the best, Okay? I want you all to know that this is Ol’ Dirty Bastard, and I love you all. Peace!”


That pretty much sums up how I feel about Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr.  Manny is for the children. He is there to teach the children how to dish out punishment in a classy manor. Manny pretty much stop fighting after his most recent foe, Antonio Margarito had his face look like this:


Manny was looking at the ref asking why they wanted him to keep destroying Margarito.  The answer was clear - Margarito is one tough MF + he's Mexican = Fight to the death. Freddie Roach would have had to put in a Mortal Kombat Finish Him code for Pacman to try to put the 165lbs Margarito down. Say what you want to say about Margarito and his plaster hands, he put up about as valiant an effort somebody could possibly have while getting the beat down of the year. 


What does this mean for Floyd? At first I found myself taking jabs at Floyd and saying he is scared and the such. I have to retract my statements. I have come to my senses. Floyd is brilliant. Floyd is revolutionary. And beyond that, he is scared for the right reasons. Why would you subject yourself to this type of punishment?



Or what about this? Who wants to sleep in the ring at night? 


Pacman is special. Extremely gifted. And the best boxer I have seen in my young life. He has the ferociousness of a young Tyson with the flare of a young Roy Jones Jr. Factor in the humbleness of a nerd, there is  no way I would want to fight this guy. Poor Ricky Hatton was never the same. Hatton had his life fall apart after this episode, lost his family, and is now in rehab. I can't blame Ricky. I have never been in the fight with a crazed Spyder Monkey and the lasting effects have to be unrecoverable.  


For the fight that we will never see, I still contend it wont be a walk in the park for either fighter. I maintain that Pacman would have to bring the same A game that Floyd would need. But I still believe Floyd has not seen this level of talent and a person who is as fast (or faster) and stronger (way stronger, drugs or not) and for 12 rounds. Pacman doesn't get tired. He is vulnerable, he did admit that Margarito hurt him. Margarito was catching him on a number of shots the entire fight, but the flash and flare of Pacman made you forget about them instantly.  As far as the testing, lets put the BS aside and make the fight the last 7,000 fights have been made prior to the Mayweather Keep Boxing Clean campaign aka the Tea Party Bullshit of America campaign for boxing.  Pacman a rare talent that needs to walk through one more door of greatness. 


Now watch this teashot. This is one hell of a car.
