Does this include me.

If there's anyone who's *not* being used for the PPV, that you *don't* want me to use for the above match, please let me know ASAP.

Besides, the Bucks aren't that much worse than the Cavs. They just underachieved last season, I think, they're one of the more underrated teams in the league, IMO.

The Suns are shooting like they've got five Stephen Jacksons out there.

Man, fuck Cliff Robinson. Couldn't they have done this drug test two weeks ago.

The Kings haven't officially announced any candidates, but Terry Porter and Eddie Jordan are being rumored. Porter is still trying to buy the Trail Blazers, and they haven't yet asked permission from the Wizards to talk to Jordan.

Greg Buckner didn't get any votes, either. I had him on my second team. He's a free agent this summer, and one I'd like to see Bird make a play for. He provides good outside shooting and perimeter defense, the two things we lacked most dearly in the NJ series, and while he may not be the creator on offense that Peja is (and that's kind of sad, really), could be had much cheaper should Peja not stick around. Oh, and I didn't have Bruce Bowen on my ballot, either. I personally don't consider throwing elbows to the throat and head and kicking people in the back to be great defense. Sorry.

Turns out the person who voted for Deron Williams was a TV analyst for the Jazz.

lolz

Chris Paul was officially named Rookie of the Year, getting all but one first place vote. Villanueva was second, Bogut was third. The other first went to Deron Williams. I'm interested to see where Raymond Felton placed. I had him second, but he didn't even make first team All-Rookie.

Like this?

No.

Moss goes behind, and takes Mephisto down to the mat, riding him. Mephisto is able to get back to his feet, and drives elbows into the head of Moss, then backs into the ropes and gives him a clothesline! COLE Nice clothesline from Mephisto! Mephisto then delivers a bodyslam to Moss, and tags Asmodai! However, Moss rolls over to his corner and tags in Quentin Benjamin. COACH Two new men in the ring, let's see how these two deal with a little speed! Asmodai catches Benjamin coming at him with a drop toe hold, then catches him with a big bodyslam! Benjamin clutches his back in the corner. COLE And Mephisto and Asmodai looking impressive early on! Benjamin walks out of the corner, then stands across from Asmodai with his hands out, and the two try to grab each other by the wrist.

COACH Absolutely, Cole, but when will these impressive wins earn them some respect? We return from the commercial break to a shot of a school building, with the American and Colorado state flags waving out front, as [i]Pomp and Circumstance[/i] plays in the background. Cut inside to Brock Ausstin, wearing khaki pants with a polo shirt and the Heartland belt. BROCK Good morning, class! I'm your teacher, Mr. Ausstin. And I'm here to tell you all your assignment for School's Out, which will be known as the Sunday Detention Challenge. *Brock uses his stick to point at the chalkboard.* BROCK Should you accept this assignment, you are to be in this classroom and in your seats on Sunday, May 28. All challengers are welcome, and it will be a part of School's Out, live on PPV. *Brock walks over and lifts up a desktop, pulling out a pair of nunchucks. He then makes his way out of the classroom and down the hallway.* BROCK The assignment involves a no-holds-barred brawl, going everywhere on the school premises. *camera cuts to Brock in a bathroom.* BROCK That could mean in the bathroom... *a young woman's scream is heard, at which point walks over to the stall and opens it up.* BROCK Sorry! *camera cuts to Brock in the cafeteria.* BROCK ...the cafeteria... *Brock grabs a handful of spaghetti out of the pan and shoves it in his mouth, as the lunch lady puts her hands on her hips and looks on in disgust. The camera then cuts to Brock outside, on a swing.* BROCK ...or even outside, here on the playground! *Brock leaps off the swing, landing right in front of the camera. The camera then cuts to Brock walking back into the classroom.* BROCK Now you can score a pinfall...but it won't end the match. The match will last 20 minutes, no shorter, no longer. For example, in the unlikely event that someone were to get a pin on me...it would then become that person who needs to be pinned, and the process continues until the 20 minutes is up. And your extra credit for being the last man to score a pin... *Brock takes the belt off* BROCK The OAOAST Heartland championship. Class is dismissed...for now. *Brock gives a sly grin, and the camera cuts back to the shot of the school before going back to the arena.

Wow, it took almost three whole quarters for them to show Eva Longoria in the crowd!

"Javie sucks" chant. Barry looked like he was in the circle, though.

I'm sure someone will ultimately bring up Kevin Garnett, so I'll just say this: KG gets the benefit of the doubt over Marbury, because He's been considered one of, if not *the* best player in the world for years now. He's a former MVP. As Sass put it at NMB at the beginning of the season, you either have to climb the mountain or be the mountain that everyone climbs. The Wolves have limited success here, but they were the top seed in the West in 2004 and got to the conference finals. I think all these combined are enough to put KG in the Hall. As an aside to that last point, I'm sure people think Reggie Miller will get in based solely on his clutch shooting, but the fact is the Pacers were one of the elite teams in the league throughout the mid-90's, making four ECF appearances from 94-99. There's no question that they were the most consistent obstacle to climb (besides the Bulls, of course) in order to get to the finals out of the East in that period.

As much as I hate Marbury, CW is right. Playoff success is really the only thing holding him back at this point, he certainly has the numbers.

Richard Jefferson has a bone bruise on his ankle and is doubtful for Game 2.

If not, I guess a couple squash matches.

Miami has the lead down to nine now with 4 1/2 minutes, it was 28 at one point.
