The Regime

Had a man on 3rd, with 0 outs in the bottom of the 11th. But failed to get a deep hit and bring in a run. It's times like these where I wish the Giants had power hitters.

Tiger Woods is making a push...

Isn't Jamison retiring at the end of this season?

Gotcha.

I'll take the weakest team of the group and that's the Hornets, we'll sweep them. The Blazers could easily take us to six, maybe even seven games. Gerald Wallace is looking comfortable and Brandon Roy looked really good based on the few minutes I watched him play last night. The Grizzles could probably take us to 6 games best case scenario, just because they have quality perimeter defenders who would force Kobe to be a volume scorer. They just don't have enough offensive fire power without Rudy Gay to stay up with us.

Need to put a end to the losing streak. Pau needs to man the [expletive] up and have a big night if the Blazers decide to go small and not give Camby heavy minutes.

I love me some Derrick Favors, dude is gonna be a beast.

Well atleast Phil sat out Pau in the fourth to send his ass a message. His softness was at a whole another level last night. It also would not have hurt if Fish and Blake hit a few of their wide open shots, it was like the the two teams were playing a pick up at a YMCA and Blake and Fish were the dudes that couldn't shot so you would purposely leave them open. [expletive] our guard play outside of Kobe.

And also just out of curiousity how many games has Amare started at center this season?

Amare hasn't played all that well since the Melo trade either. And actually if I remember correctly he played well for the first 30-35 games but fell off since then.

ALL-DEFENSIVE FIRST TEAM C - Dwight Howard F - Andre Iguodala F - Luol Deng G - Tony Allen G - Russell Westbrook ALL-DEFENSIVE SECOND TEAM C - Tyson Chandler F - Kevin Garnett F - Lebron James G - Rajon Rondo G - Chris Paul I was really tempted to put Andrew Bogut on my second team, but the Bucks as a team have lost all motivation to play hard. Bogut has the potential though.

Andre Iguodala should be one of the poll options, either replacing Josh Smith or Tim Duncan. Just saying.

EASTERN CONFERENCE FINALS: Chicago Bulls vs. Boston Celtics WESTERN CONFERENCE FINALS: Los Angeles Lakers vs. OKC Thunder NBA FINALS: Chicago Bulls vs. Los Angeles Lakers NBA CHAMPION: Los Angeles Lakers

That's possibly the homer speaking in me. But since the all star break he has played like the second best center in the league hands down.

Luol Deng should be runner up in his position, his play this season has been phenomenal. Bulls rank in the tops in defense and most of that has to do with Luol's improvement. He and Noah anchor that defense even though Rose has improved significantly. He's the 4th best defensive player this season behind Dwight Howard, Andre Iguodala, and Tony Allen.

1. Basketball 2. Football I'll watch a little bit of baseball for time from time (mostly the postseason), outside of those two/three I don't watch any other sport.

Because he's better than Wade, duh. ALL-NBA FIRST TEAM C - Dwight Howard F - Kevin Durant F - Lebron James G - Kobe Bryant G - Derrick Rose ALL-NBA SECOND TEAM C - Andrew Bynum F - Dirk Nowitzki F - Carmelo Anthony G - Dwayne Wade G - Russell Westbrook ALL-NBA THIRD TEAM C - Amare Stoudemire F - Pau Gasol F - Kevin Love G - Manu Ginobli G - Deron Williams

I'm waiting for Shelvin Mack or Kemba Walker to put their print on the half, but neither guy can seem to get into any sort of rhythm. UConn needs to continue to work inside-out.

Neither team is shooting well despite getting good looks. Game is lacking excitement thus far.
