Great finish between the Kings and Spurs, Bibby strips Ginobili and feeds Kevin Martin who lays it in over Duncan at the buzzer, Kings win by 1.

Link~ This was my choice as well, btw.

And yet, Bernie Bickerstaff gets one? Give me a break.

Oh yeah:

I joined it. I post sporadically at the Pit anyway. EDIT: My team name for that league is F.I.'s Ringers You fucker.

...was Haslem just crying a minute ago?

Sorry Zack, I was at work. I wouldn't have cared, but I'm sure it's too late now.

Well, I think Posey just earned a suspension for game 4. He just shoulder-checked Hinrich right to the ground on a fast break.

Pacers win 107-95 to take a 2-1 lead on the Nets. JO was a BEAST tonight, 37 points, 15 boards, 4 blocks. Anthony Johnson had a great game, too. Carter was 0-10 in the second half.

You can use Reject or Team Heyross if you want.

I must admit I'm surprised at the way this game's going so far.

He's no more biased towards Nash than you clearly are against him. My pick was Dirk too, but shit, you're acting like Nash's jilted lover or something.

I'd like an explanation on this one, if you don't mind.

As Alf goes to the apron, Brock grabs a chair and BLASTS him over the head with it! COLE And Alf's SKULL leaving an imprint in that chair! COACH And Alf's bleeding too, now! That makes all three in that department, as well! Brock rolls into the ring and watches as Alf crawls towards him, getting a smirk on his face. Brock holds his arms out to the crowd, drawing MASSIVE boos. He smacks Alf a couple times, then holds them out again...but Alf gathers one last burst of energy, grabs Brock's legs, and applies the SHARPSHOOTER~!!! to an ENORMOUS pop! COLE Sharpshooter once again, and no one in sight to save Brock Ausstin! Will the third time be the charm? CABOOSE Look at Alf cinch back, look at the look on his face! Brock crawls to the ropes, but Alf pulls him back out to the center! COLE And now they're right back in the middle of the ring! PK slowly starts to crawl back to the ring! COACH Hurry up, Peter! I don't think Brock can hold out much longer! PK reaches the apron, as Brock reaches for the same side, but Alf pulls him back once again!

The home crowd of Alf goes BALLISTIC~! *DING DING DING* COACH NO!!! COLE WE HAVE A WINNER! The camera pans directly to PK's bloody face, which has a shocked look on it. He then buries it in his hands on the mat, as Alf releases the hold and the referee raises his hand. BUFFER [i]The winner of the match...and STILL OAOAST Heavyweight champion of the WORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRLLLLLD...ALFDOGG!!!!![/i] CABOOSE Gee, Living Angleously just isn't Brock's pay-per-view, is it? Alf receives his belt from the referee and raises it for the fans as Knight rolls out to the floor, slamming his hands on the apron in frustration as he looks over at Alf and then Brock. COLE Axel thought that stacking the odds against the champion would bring the belt back to the Upstarts, but he underestimated the heart of the man that holds that belt. CABOOSE Back to the drawing board for our General Manager, it looks like. COLE We hope you have enjoyed Living Angleously. For Caboose and Coach, I'm Michael Cole saying goodnight from Indy! [b]Fade to black[/b] Make any changes you need, PK. I'll let you write the postmatch stuff, I'm not really that good at doing that.

Wow, that may be the luckiest shot I've ever seen with more than .4 seconds left

Kings look like they could pull this one off, without Artest. 14.6 to go and up three. Just remember that I'm the one who said this could still be a series.

I don't want to hear any more whining from the Jersey camp about questionable foul calls or anything else about the officiating. This is a fucking joke.

What a shock, Tinsley comes in the game and the Nets start to run away with it.

Jackson's going to make damn sure he doesn't have two good games in a row. Already on the bench with two fouls after missing two easy shots and a free throw.

No Peja tonight for the Pacers, out with a sore knee. Granger gets the start.

Oh God, they have Doc Rivers on color. WHY

Wins.

Not to rush you or anything, man, but I really need a reply to my PM as soon as possible. This is the last full night I have to write before the PPV, and I still haven't started on the ME, either.

On TNT, they just said that Avery Johnson will be named Coach of the Year.

Also, I didn't realize that 22 points on 9-15 shooting was an "off-night" for Nenad Krstic. Plus the Nets set a franchise record by committing only 6 turnovers.
