Playoff Diary – Week 2 – 29th April 2013

Andrew Bogut comes up HUGE
I was hoping to explore some other topics today but then ANDREW BOGUT HAD THE GAME OF HIS FREAKIN LIFE!! Steph Curry wasn’t half bad either.
I implore you – Watch. This. Game. (Bogut does all his damage in the first half)
I’ll let the footage do the talking from here.

Post-game.

* Brook Lopez gives the business to his useless twin brother Robin.

Whats Doin: Tony Parker should have been a Celtic?

A weekly wrap of the things you should know in basketball.

Whats Doin: Bogut’s thrifty

A weekly wrap of the things you should know in basketball.
* Is there anyone better at just baptising dudes than Harrison Barnes? Here’s two more (here and here) to add to his collection.

Identity politics in the Staples Center

I haven’t been writing much this season. While I’d like to claim that’s because I haven’t had downtime from my glamourous life as a secret agent/astronaut/millionaire, the truth is that I’m just too povo to afford League Pass so I can hardly watch games. ESPN’s spotty coverage doesn’t help.
With that said, in the past week [...]

Dwight’s death wish?

After the Lakers’ 107-102 loss to the Clippers, Dwight Howard had this to say when comparing the two teams: “They just play together. They share the ball.” Ouch!
He obviously didn’t get the memo – thou shalt not criticize Kobe Bryant.
(Look, I know Kobe has played some brilliant ball this season but he’s also [...]

* At a Halloween party Tim Duncan and Tony Parker pointed some fake guns at a guy dressed [...]

Thoughts on the Knicks, Heat and Lakers

Yes it’s me. I’m still posting, albeit it not as much as I used to. I told JT you can count me in for maybe one post per month, and of course the Playoff Diary. But this season is so damn intriguing I don’t know if I can wait a month between posts. So much [...]

Whats Doin: The power of the death stare

A weekly wrap of the things you should know in basketball.
* The Warriors would be wise to play it safe with Andrew Bogut.

* The Lakers need a psychologist, not [...]
