Week Up-date
Peace to all my wicked jumpshot readers, fans and groupies. Let’s dig in.
How in the Hell does Gayvon George have a no-trade clause. To be honest there should be only 2 players with (ntc’s, there actually 18)….Bean and King James. Here the excuse; he has a clause in his one-year, $2.4 million deal that stipulates he must agree to any trade. George forfeits his early Bird rights in a trade which, theoretically, could cost him a larger salary when he seeks his next deal after he becomes a free agent July. 1. Wow this is why the NBA is the best League in the world. Here u have a bum like George has all the power in leverage in the world, he has 3 rings, still has a house in LA and can tell groupies he know Shaq and Kobe…and Dirk and Cubes…….I love this country. In a few years Cubes will be thanking George for the hold-up, this trade stinks. The Mavs even with Kidd can’t beat SA, LA or PHX and to be honest a tem like Utah might beat them if they get a few breaks. So why trade for a 35 yr pg who cant shoot, yes he makes ur team a lil’ better but what happens when u double down on Dirk and swing it to Kidd and he clank that shit…………..Now u see the light. Dallas needs to chill keep Devo Harris (damn that boys needs a shape-up) and play it out.
Speaking of bad hair, I was watching the Celtic-Knicks highlight and asked my self why is Brian Scalabrine in the NBA. I just don’t get it. U gonna tell me there’s no one in the NBDL better then him. I just don’t believe it……. U know in Boston how it’s goin down…….
Was watching the Suns-Warriors game and was so entertained. Man they were goin at it, The Boy B-Diddy is incredible. He so strong and can finish so well. How in the hell is he not an all-star. This is goin to be a gr8 1st round match-up, but The Lakers will have the number one seed in the off’s. No it’s not a homer pick, here the proof: http://nocapprohoops.com/2008/02/12/why-the-lakers-will-win-the-pacific-division/
My new fave show is Americas Dance Team. I know I’m catch some flack but uck it, it very entertaining. U gotta watch it, plus there some nice jiggling females to keep ur attention. Mtv Thursday 10pm
I’m getting geared up for the ASG this year. I was thinking about some of my fave ASG moments.
1.
2. Quite possibility the greatest ASG dunk ever, Shaq eviscerates Drobb……wow

By the way Espn Classix will be having a ASG marathon on Sunday 12. Comcast finally answered my prayers and gave us Classix on the reg. digi-package. They have a college basketball double header on in the afternoon. Yesterday I caught 2 Puke-MD games. 1995 Joey Smith gave them like 27 and 13 against such Puke legends like Eric Meeks and The other chief Cherokee Parks…….lol. The nightcap was the 2001 game when MD gave up a 12pt lead with 59 seconds……….amazing comeback
The even weird thing was Md had Puke up by like 10 in the 2001 Final 4 only to choke up and let them win. I hate him but I gotta give the boy Dookie Battier his due, he the most winning’est player in NCAA history 4yrs-133 wins.
Shyt about 2 nights ago I caught Cuse’ v St Johns….Gr8 players like Lawrence “Poetry in” Moten, The late great Malik Sealy…….What happened to legit College Players with good nicknames
I’m feelin’ the itch to pick up a new hobby this year,…..Any Suggestion. Maybe some dance lesson, wat about learning to play poker (so the next tyme I go to Vegas…very soon, I can maybe play another game other then roulette and 21) maybe find a local pub and become a regular. Like a Cheers…..speaking of Cheers…who could sing it better than:
Was thinking about how I haven’t went to a store and bought a cd in about 8 yrs. I was thinking wat are the best Album covers, I think my fave of all-tyme:
Lol, the creativity and rawness of the whole project was just incredible. I can remember buying this at the old Sam Goody at the Columbia Mall. It was the 3rd release after 36 chambers and Tical. Dirty was just in a diff zone then the rest of us. The thing about Dirty was his lyrical delivery was so uncanny he could just murder beats while still being funny and hardcore……”I got burnt twice but hey it was only gonorrhea” that’s like pain and pleasure; only gr8 poets can put a line like that 2gether.
My fave new Network of 2008(it might be old but who cares I say what I want) G4. Great network, Oliva Gunn , wat a fine slice of cheese :: over there and they play Cops and Cheaters. They have a segment at night that has All Japanese tv and it off the hook….very young and hip network, maybe they can get some re-runs of A-team, Knight Rider and GI Joes and it will officially replace Spike as the de facto Mans Network.
I’ve been reading complex since it inception funny because I’m not into the trendy fashion shit but the website is awesome www.complex.com.... If u doubting we can go issue for issue….u don’t want it
I’m a wrap this up wit my thought on V-day. It’s the Cole-Slaw of holidays. Nice sometimes, but who ever ask for cole-slaw. It’s a basic day that strictly for females and it bad for the environment. Think about it, we kill millions of flowers for one day, destroy mega tons of the cacao plant that makes chocolate…..for wat. Think about ask urself wat the best v-day gift u got…….keep thinking it doesn’t even register. But have no fear fellas, I got a holiday brewing for us………stay tuned.
PS: Fave V-day song….CAMAY by Ghostface, Raekwon and Cappadonna from the Iron man Cd.:
“Can you cook Darling….Baked Macaroni Turkey Wings a brother starving”…….
Enjoy the Weekend………

The Sweet Taste of Victory
The Sweet Taste of Victory
I have a few days to digest some heavy stuff: the uber bowl debacle, the laker’s trade the daddy-diesel goin out west …again. Where do I start, The Uber Bowl was an incredible game. I’m not goin to get into the details cause I’m sure u heard all week about them. The one thing I want to address is the Pats backlash; some are even saying there reign on the top was short like leprechaun. I don’t quite see it that way, they got some good pieces in place and the number 7th pick in the draft. U gotta think about it like this, they play the Jets, Fins and Bills twice. That’s 6 wins now lets say they go .500 the rest of the 10 games, that 11-5 and damn good enuff for the offs’. Now they do have needs and issues to address. I think they can leverage the 7th pick for more pick later in the draft. They might even think about trading the 7th and Assante Samules (sign and trade that the other team aggress to give him a big contract) for a nice package of picks like 2 2’s a 4th and 2 4th round picks. This reminds of my old Madden days as de facto GM. I used to love winning the chip in franchise mode and then trading all the players over 30plus wit high cap numbers. It was gr8 building ur dynasty wit young draft picks and finding cheap free agent talent like Devry Henderson (97 speed, wink Donnie). The fact that you could lock up all that young talent for much cheaper rather then pay for those high-price fa was just not fiscally smart.. That why I would always pick Madden over NCAA Football. In NCAA the best teams get the best player….period, it’s that simple. Most of crew plays with top teams: USC,
Still not a believer:
Now to the LB corps, Vrabel good, Brushi can comeback but at lesser role, maybe a 3rd down linebacker and he’s gonna have to take a paycut. If Bellichik can call his old coach, the Tuna he can swing a trade for Channing Crowder. He’s young, unknown and has the range and speed to be a beast in that 3-4 defense. These are small personnel issue that will get the Pats hungry for another run but the real issue the Mind-state…The Psyche.
It kind of reminds me of the 2004 Lakers. I remember the 2003 Lakers losing to the Spurs after goin for there 4th str8 chip. It was a shock, not in the Spurs beating the Lakes but the fact that they weren’t the best any more, like it was there right to win the chip every year. I can vividly remember that series so clear. There was no way we were gonna lose to them, Shaq and
Game 3 was so live that Jack Nick from the sideline got a tech and that just fired the whole Staples up. But in the end the Spurs won and that would set the table for the 2004 team. Look at the emotions on Dfish face….powerful. They felt they needed to get stronger at the 1 and 4 so they picked up Karl Malone and Gary Payton. The Pats picked up Randy “str8 cash” Moss and Make u say Oww like Junior (who Marble calls the Karl Malone of football players). Both had gr8 distractions…..Kobe Rape trial and Spygate. Both breezed thru there regular season and got to the Finals/Super Bowl. Then something happened, something clicked, the shine of both teams quickly lost there luster. The Lakers were eviscerated in the finals; Don Jaun calls it the first 5 game sweep. I was the most shocked person in the world, it didn’t seem right, it was like how could it happen, I’m sure Pat fans feel the same way “how in the hell did we only score 14pts”. Maybe it was the enormous pressure of being the best all year long, crazy expectations, I know it was classic underachievers like Chauncey and Eli putting it 2gether. We all know what happened to the Pats. The Lakers never quite recovered from that year, Phil left, and Shaq was traded. What the future of the Pats, only time will tell.
The Daddy is headed out west. I’m not going to get into the details (that why u have sports center) but best believe Phx. got the best of the deal. I’m not a huge Marion fan, he does some nice things but doest create his own shit, doesn’t play good d (no steals is not playing good defense, that just means your uber quick and get into those passing lanes). Listen, the Suns were never gonna get to the finals wit
Now to our beloved Skin…….one phrase…”Wat the Uck”, the hiring of Jim Zorn is a debacle. It’s not a knock on him rather then the skins brass. How in the hell do u sign a coach that has never been a head coach and not even a offensive coordinator. Ok, he was the QB coach at
