In what was considered by all and sundry to be a surprise move by the NBA League office of Basketball Operations, Stu Jackson issued an apology to the Los Angeles Lakers over the huge disparity in free throw attempts in game 2 of the NBA Finals at the TD Banknorth Garden at a post...

Upside and Motor, the NBA blog are running a campaign to get Ronny Turiaf as the Yellow Book Lakers player-cam player for TNT's interwebby coverage of game 3 between the Lakers & the Spurs.
Great idea.

Sheesh?
Holy down-to-the-wire, Batman!
Prior to the game's beginning, if you told me that the end result would have both teams scoring under 90, then asked me who would be the winner, I would tell you the Spurs. But the 89-85 scoreline went the other way. 'Twas the Lakers...

Cleveland 88 - Boston 77
Ok, tell me. What's going on with the Celtics? Seems that every time they pull on the green, they fold faster than me playing poker. It's gotten almost that bad.

Ouch. Simply ouch.
Clearly, we see LeBron say to the woman in the striped shirt,
"Sit your ass down!"
That woman is Gloria James, LeBron's mother.

Perhaps the best adjective I can give to the way Detroit have played throughout the Eastern Conference semi-finals.
Every other 'contender' has struggled mightily at times.
The Lakers couldn't close out the Jazz, even when the opportunity was there. The Spurs looked absolutely...

Unbelievable. D'Antoni at the Knicks. Guess money was the over-riding factor in that decision, huh? Rick Carlisle at Dallas

You really have to feel for the Denver Nuggets franchise. Despite putting up the third largest combined salary in the NBA, they were the only team swept out of the first round.
Denver owner E. Stanley Kroenke has never shied from spending his cash to make improvements on the roster...

Ok, getting a bit ahead of myself there, perhaps a brief explanation is necessary.

Failed Experiments?

First round of the playoffs are done, and given their first round exit Dallas has to be wondering what they have to do to get back to being a top-flight unit. Whilst Phoenix managed to be competitive against the Spurs, it was evident that they cannot beat San Antonio in a close game.

Well… Kobe Bryant is on the brink. On the brink of getting further in a playoff series than Shaquille O'Neal. Congratulations to Byron Scott - Coach of the Year… And congratulations to Hedo Turkoglu, named Most Improved player for the NBA.

Pretty hard to work out patterns in the playoff series thus far. I get why teams up 2-0 or 3-0 lose a game, especially away… but pretty hard to foresee Detroit falling into a 1-2 hole before today's game.

What the… I turn away from the PC/TV area for one minute, and Boston lose? To Atlanta? Ok, well… it might have been longer than a minute. Just. But it felt like a minute. Did I slip, hit my head and enter an alternate reality?

Wow… LA goes to Denver, and toasts the Denver Nuggets in their own house 108-84. I'm not going to review the game in any depth - there are loads of places you can do that, just going to talk about the Nuggs a lil'.

Anyone else surprised by the total failure of some teams to bring their 'A' game to the finals? Not talking about Atlanta - no-one expected them to do much against Boston - but teams like Houston & Dallas are really, really behind the 8-ball…

Well, most went to plan within round 1 of the NBA playoffs. Most… So much for quite a few people telling me that Detroit will beat Boston in the Conference Finals. Might still happen, but but the Pistons need to focus on beating Philadelphia first.

Japanese high school baseball isn't always even-keeled, and many inequities exist between some of the top schools, and their opponents who are sometimes bereft of the benefits the elite 'yakyu gakko' possess… but this is bordering on ridiculous.
