Celts Rolling, And So Am I

The Heat forgot there was a game tonight and haven't show up so far in the first half. So instead of any actual game analysis, I'm linking to this post by Kelly "Soul Patch" Dwyer that I'm still laughing about 4 hours after I read it originally. Here's a snippet for those of you that are just plain too lazy to click a link.

Kidd: Nothing can stop me on my way to a championship. That's what I was put on Earth to do.
Thorn: Jason, you're not being interviewed, stop it. You do realize how hard it is to trade someone who makes as much money as you, right? You're making 19.7 million dollars this season.
Kidd: Yeah. I'm awesome.
Thorn: Be that as it may, we have to match that salary in any trade we make.
Kidd: Kwame makes that much.
Thorn: Kwame doesn't make that much. Very few people do.
Kidd: You make that much.
Thorn: No, I don't.
Kidd: Know why?
Thorn: Why, Jason?
Kidd: NO TRIP-LE DOUB-LESSS!

Just keeps getting better from there.

Every time I predict a loss, they win. So maybe I’ll keep it up. Seriously, the Heat ought to be ashamed of themselves. You expect guys like Mark Blount and Ricky Davis to pack it in, but not Dwayne Wade and the rest of the team. Pathetic.

This may be the best NBA game that Tony Allen has ever played.

Great article. I want some triple doubles and draft picks so I can rob a bank. Think Kidd can send me some?

Kelly Dwyer continues to be one of my favorite NBA bloggers out there, at least in terms of when he started out online, which was (I gather) in about ‘98 or so…and first heard about him from when he used to guest blog on Truehoop…
Yet sadly now, Truehoop is on Your Worldwide Leader and Kelly’s on Yahoo and they don’t switch it up any more. But really funny guy when he gets it going.

When I was completely (non-Green-related) basketball-starved over the dog days of summer & fall, he had up some great game-blogs of random playoff games from the 90’s that were really good…

This article’s like those basketballjones ones about romance on the hardwood…i think the steve nash and kobe bryant ones were the first ones…
