Get down wit' yo bad self, SpoelstraFirst things first: happy trails, Flip Saunders. I'll miss your amazingly fun name, terrible hair and goofy expressions of frustration. Someone, please hire Flip ASAP.Oh, plus there's this: "Will most miss Flip Saunders' postgame quote sheet, which was often must-read. As close as you'll get to seeing 'I hate my team...

Rape Ghost!The Washington Wizards Generals: Sigh. It's the same old story for this sorry squad. Sure, they were playing at home against an aging and slumping Celtics team that was without Rajon Rondo (sprained wrist). And, yeah, Boston lost the services of Ray Allen with six and a half minutes to go in the second quarter after Ray-Ray sprained the wrist connected to his shooting...

Sometimes being a coach means having to demonstrate to your players how to escape from a Chinese finger trapSorry I got this posted a little later than usual.

Sometimes things end too soon. Far too soon.Personal anguish: NO! NO! GOD IN HEAVEN NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!I could not have possibly said it any better than Basketbawful reader Joe did in yesterday's WotN comments: "If anyone needs me I'll be at home lying face down on the floor with only the occasional wracking sob to indicate that I'm still alive."Day ruined....

The Orlando Magic's shootin' eye: Despite a 60-41 rebounding deficit, a 2-for-17 shooting performance from beyond the arc, and Dwight Howard's Animal Style Double-Double (24 points, 25 boards), the Spurs downed the Magic in OT.

The Phoenix Suns: Spiderman's balls! The Suns played some of the worst defense ever last night. No, really. I know I like to use hyperbole, but this is not hyperbolic in the least. I've seen more hands in faces at an amputee convention.The Bulls got whatever they wanted whenever they wanted it. I mean, 118 points on 53.5 percent shooting is crazy, especially considering the...

I was able to get everything ready to go well in advance thanks to a three day weekend and a bit of insomnia. You're welcome.Worst of the Night in Pictures:"No! Please! Don't go!...

Worst of MLK Jr. Day
The Chicago Bulls: Beware of revenge games.Remember: The Bulls beat the Grizzlies by 40 points on New Years Day. The Memphis players weren't going to forget that. No way. No how.And before the game, Mike Conley made sure of it: "I said, 'Let's not forget what happened. That was the last thing I said to them: 'That was an embarrassing loss. Let's go out there...

Bawful After Dark: MLK Jr Day
"Ha ha!"Sorry on Bawful's behalf for the lack of a WOTW post, and sorry on my behalf for getting this BAD post up halfway through the early games. Long weekends always make things weird, you know? I still feel like I should be busting my butt at my Clark Kent job right now. Instead I'm nearly in a food coma from eating too many chicken wings at lunch.Worst of the...

Chicago Winter. Definitely Worst of the Night.The Charlotte Bobkittens: Bought and built by Michael Jordan, the Bobkittens are turrible in the turribliest sense of the word. It's like MJ wanted to handcraft a team crappy enough to rival the pre-CP3/Griffin Clippers, only without the benefit of The Other L.A. Team's historically bawful whimsy.Mike: Your team makes children...

Worst of the Night: January 11, 2012
The Washington Wizards Generals: This was a textbook definition of Scalper's Night Off in Chicago. The Generals entered the game 1-8. The Bulls were without Derrick Rose (toe)...not to mention starting SG Rip Hamilton (groin) and backup PG C.J. Watson (elbow). That forced Chicago coach Tom Thibodeau to squeeze nearly 48 minutes out of third-string point guard John Lucas III.The...

"Woah, Marcin! This is kind of the opposite of what I'm used to..."A quick bit of housekeeping. I mentioned this in the comments on my previous BAD post, but for anyone who didn't see it...

"That's just how I gave it to Rambis in '84. I call it the 'Pain Train,' baby."Hey, everybody. Sorry for the lack of postage the past few days. The Excremento Kings The Paupers shot 39 percent, let the Sixers shoot 56 percent, and trailed by as many as 34 points before downing in a sea of their own suck.
