So Far, Dirk is the MVP

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 22:20:05 +0000

Over at Basketball-Reference.com , there's a day-old article suggesting, almost timorously, that on numbers alone Steve Nash deserves MVP consideration. I'm of the school that questions his 2005-06 award, and believes Nash was denied the 2006-07 trophy simply because three straight would've ...

Fiending for Links, Featuring the End of Stan Van Gundy’s Negativity

1. Dwight Howard approached Stan Van Gundy (a.k.a. Ron Jeremy’s Illegitimate Twin Brother) earlier this week and asked the notoriously demanding coach to tone down the negativity. SVG took the criticism well. He sucker-punched Howard in the temple. Just kidding. (I confused SVG with Tom ...

Spurs lose Parker and Ginobili, then lose to Mavs in OT

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 17:03:34 +0000

The Spurs played much better defense but the injury bug is taking its toll and the Spurs have some major issues to address before facing the Utah Jazz tonight (Ginobili has been ruled out and Parker is doubtful), such as interior defense and turnovers. Dirk Nowitzki scored a season-high 41 points.

I know it's hard, but try to enjoy this... Note: Last night at my pickup league, I suffered my 278th busted lip and what might have been a mild concussion (which might explain why I spent the next several hours feeling nauseous and woozy). As a result, I couldn't spend my usual three-four ...
