My All-Star Picks

Unlike the current all-star system, I am old school and will pick based on positions. Here are my picks

An proposal for the NBA

A few years ago, the NBA changed the All-Star game's format from East/ West to one where the captains pick their teams. There has also been talk of changing the playoff format also. While I think that the NBA should keep the East/West format. The fact is that the East/ West format can seem arbitrary. In the past, the NFL's NFC one had Arizona and Dallas in the East with Atlanta, Carolina, St Louis, and New Orleans in the West. The AFC once had Indianapolis in the East and Baltimore in the Central. The NHL at one time named it's divisions and conferences after people. That lasted for years. So maybe the NBA needs some change. I propose one here.

2019 wish list

This are somethings that I wish to happen in sports next year.

My All time NBA starting five

Jerry West, GM of the All Time starting five

I have noticed that certain individuals have been posting their all time NBA starting five so I decided to make a list. This list was done quickly, why? Simple, because it was obvious. This is the correct list, all other different lists are wrong.

It's time Grizz, the Parsons experiment has failed.

 

Chandler Parson missed another game last night. Parsons joined the Grizzlies as a free agent in the summer of 2016. He sighed a four year max contract for 94 million dollars. He has played in total of 73 games, this includes the three that he has played in these season. His signing was viewed as a great move that showed that the Grizzlies were willing to spend money. Now, it is a contract that has to go.

What should the T-wolves do?

The Minnesota Timberwolves are a train wreck. How to fix it.

1. Fire Tom Thibodeau, 
1. Butler is his guy, 
2. He refuses to trade Butler
3. Has too much power
2. Trade Jimmy Butler
3. Trade Karl Antony Towns
4. Trade Andrew Wiggins 
5. Transfer Scott Layden
6. Hire a true General Manager, Layden answers to Thibodeau.
7. Hire a coach to just coach
8. And most important of all, Draft Well
9. Also BURN THOSE UGLY GREEN UNIFORMS 

Kill it with fire!!

NBA Picks because why not.

Update:

  I have been gone for too long. I have graduated from law school. I am attempting to pass the bar exam, while trying to find a job. I do not plan to return to blogging full time but I do however plan on posting things from time to time. Now to the picks click to see them

Open Letter to Seattle NBA fans

    Dear Seattle NBA fans:

   I am writing this letter in order to ask that one of you buys the Clippers. As you all know Donald Sterling is no longer selling the team. While I don't care if he does, the fact is the Clippers being terrible is normal, this is a chance for you guys to get a team. Donald Sterling is angry and seems to want to get back at the NBA. That and maybe three billion dollars could convince him to sell the team to a group of you. The NBA clearly wants to make a statement by keeping a team out of your city. Last year, you were denied the Kings. Seattle, this is your chance, don't listen to people who say that this is impossible.

                                                                                               Best Regards:
                                                                                                               MSF

Seattle, only you can end this madness.

What the Lakers should do.

What should the Lakers do

What the Grizzlies should do

This is my advice the Memphis Grizzlies

Congratulations Memphis Grizzlies

Unless you have been living under a rock in Russia, you know that the Memphis Grizzlies have won their second round series vs the OKC Thunder, 4 games to 1 game. They have advanced to the Western Conferences finals for the first time ever in their history. Who would have thought that getting rid of Rudy Gay would cause them to improve, besides me of course.

Yep I told you so! Some guy called Chris Vernon might have also said something like this. Anyway Congratulations are in order for the Grizzlies.

 This is my 350 post so I should post something special. So I am posting something for the Rudy Gay fan club.... NAAAH!

Truths of Fandom (Good Team)

I was sick this weekend & was not able to watch Game 1 of Clippers vs Grizzlies. From what I have heard & seen, it was a very 4th quarter, again. The starters played badly & Coach Lionel Hollins once again made questionable coaching & personal decisions. This has lead my Griz fans to worry about the future. This worry & general lack of knowledge of what to do has lead me to make a post about Truth of Fandom for fans of good teams, truths after the cut.

2012-13 NBA Playoff predictions

Last year problems with my computer prevented me from make NBA playoff prediction. This year I am not using my computer. Predictions after the cut.

Jerry Buss

Today long time Laker owner, and Basketball hall of Fame member, Jerry Buss passed away. During his ownership the Lakers have won 10 titles, and became the premier NBA team. During his ownership of the WNBA LA Sparks , they won two WNBA titles. He has been the constant in the Lakers success since buying the team in 1979. He will be missed.

Top five Slam Dunk Contest Dunks

Last night was the annual NBA all-star weekend slam dunk contest. Terrence Ross won it, somebody who most NBA fans don't know. He beat the defending champ Jeremy Evens, as somebody who most NBA fans don't know. To be fair they both had really good if not great dunks.Above is the winning dunk by Ross, below is the runner up dunk.

This got me to make a list of top 5 dunks in slam dunk history. Here we go.

Welcome Back Seattle.

 It now seems clear that the Sacramento Kings are moving to Seattle. It is not known if they are becoming the Seattle Kings or the new Seattle Supersonics, but Seattle will be getting a new team. The Sonics moved to Oklahoma City in 2008, this is the 5th season since they moved. A lot has chanced since they have moved. This post will list several things that have changed since Seattle last had a NBA team.

1. Lebron James no longer chokes, yeah I know shocking. Miami is the champion.
2. Cleveland hates Lebron.And the Cavs are terrible.
3. Lakers suck, I don't know how it happened but it happened. They have Steve Nash & Dwight Howard, yet they suck.
4. Memphis Grizzlies, LA Clippers are good.
5. Nets are back in New York City uh, I mean Brooklyn. They are trying to complete with the Knicks head up.
6. New Orleans Pelicans
7. The new team in Oklahoma City, was in the finals & have two great players. Durant & Westbrook
8. Greg Oden was a bust.
9. Stars named Kevin Love, Rajon Rondo, Derrick Rose have risen, Stars like Allen Iverson have retired.
10. David Stern veto trades that he don't like.
11. David Stern is also retiring, yeah thats awesome.
12. The NBA Lockout happened and didn't fix anything.
13. Phil Jackson is retired. Meaning other teams now have a chance

Welcome back Seattle and Good Luck!

Merry Christmas

It started with a call. A call that changed our destiny. Blitzen's rap change the way people viewed basketball & Christmas.  So began the Santa/Kobe/Lebron vs The Reindeer feud. A feud that tested the united Kobe & LeBron.

With Kobe & Lebron backing him up, Santa countered with a rap of his own. Any belief that Blitzen's rap was ignored was gone. Now the great clash was going to happen. The streetball game of the century was about to begin. 

Now the great clash, it was one for all time. No reindeer were hurt,  


But they were dunked on.
