FINALS

(5/31/24) The NBA Finals is set for a Celtics vs. Mavericks showdown.  These guys on TV are already tripping over themselves telling you how great the combo of Luka and Kyrie is and that the Celtics is going to have a problem stopping them.  Let’s cut through the BS and give you the scouting report on this series.  This won’t be much of a series.  

THE CELTICS WILL WIN THE FINALS EASY!

Kyrie Irving will not be effective

Kyrie is under-sized and that is important.  Jrue Holiday and Derek White will effectively guard him.  Holiday and White are top defenders that will make Irving work for his shot.  On the defensive side,  Tatum, Brown, Holiday and White will back Irving down and make him play defense.  Irving will be tired and if you are tired you will be less effective offensively.

Lively and Gafford

The only offensive moves from these two guys are dunks and lob dunks.  Outside of that they are pretty much useless offensively.  They can play a little defense but the Mavericks better pray that Porzingis is not effective.  Porzingis and Hortford just have to stand in the paint and these two won’t be able to do anything besides the occasional lob dunk.  On the offensive side, Porzingis is a 3 point threat and will pull these two guys out to the 3 point line leaving Tatum and Brown space to drive to the basket.  

Celtics deeper team

The Mavericks is not going to play BOTH Doncic and Irving together for all 48 minutes.  The Mavericks offense will be struggling against Boston’s defense when one of them is on the bench.  The starting 5 of the Celtics can shoot the 3 and are dynamic offensively compare to the Mavericks. The other starting Mavericks players Daniel Gafford, Derrick Jones and PJ Washington are all mediocre players at best and scares nobody.    

Doncic already have a backup plan GUARANTEED!

Every time Doncic falls on the ground on a foul…he is guaranteed to start grimacing and limping afterwards regardless if he is really hurt.  Doncic is great pretender and has a second career as a actor in Hollywood.  If Doncic is ineffective, people will point to him being hurt and the pressure is lifted off him.  If the Mavericks are losing big time, Doncic is ready to take a dive and pretend he is really hurt so people would not say he choked.

Vegas

For those who are dumb and really thinks the Mavericks has a chance you should put your life savings on them at +185.  The public is always suckered into the latest trend.  A few weeks ago…Minnesota beats the Nuggets…Everyone thinks Anthony Edwards is the next Jordan and that Minnesota is a dangerous team.  They were picked to go to the Finals…now on 5/31/24?? They lost to the Mavericks 4 games to 1.  So now the Mavericks are the hot team and Doncic and Irving are unstoppable.  Talking heads are saying the Celtics got lucky with all the injuries on the other team. The Celtics were the best team in the NBA from start to finish and were the betting favorites preseason to win the title.  Vegas and professional bettors expect the Celtics to be in this position and here they are.   

Tatum and Brown won’t let it happen

Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown can taste this title after Denver lost.  They will surpass the Lakers and  raise banner 18 to the rafters at the TD Garden.  Bill Walton will be proud.

DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM

(5/17/24) Hope to mankind has been restored today with the arrest of Scottie Sheffler in handcuffs.  Before his famous and rich buddies come out and tell the world how great of a person he is and how he would never hurt an ant.  Here is what “ALLEGEDLY” happened…

There was an accident where a worker was killed by a shuttle bus at approximately 6AM Friday 5/17/24 near the Valhalla Golf Club where the PGA Championship was held.  Police and emergency vehicle was on the scene and traffic was building.  Long story short…things happened and it was reported Scheffler refused to comply and proceeded to drag an officer 15-20 yards and then when he finally stopped…Sheffler was put in handcuffs and placed into a police cruiser and faces various assault charges.

Here are a few items 

Sheffler claims he didn’t know it was the police

Hmmm…there was an accident…it doesn’t take a genius to figure out that the police will be present.  Maybe he thought all the flashing lights and sirens was because there was a rave happening at 6am right in the middle of the street.  No dumb criminal will attempt to car jack you when the place is swarming with police.  This excuse by Sheffler is a big failed on his part. 

Officer asking who did we arrest?

This is a win for the regular folks.  For once, the rich and famous did not get preferential treatment for breaking the law.  This is a probably a disappointment for Sheffler.  He figured in his mind…”Hey, I am the #1 golfer in the world..EVERYONE should know me!!”.  He figured the police would be awestruck that they are in the presence of a #1 golfer and was going to just ask for his autograph and send him on his way.  The truth is not everyone cares about golf or knows who he is.  

Sheffler asking Jeff Darlington is there anything he can do?

The rich and entitled are constantly solving problems by throwing money at it.  Unfortunately this time, fame and money can’t buy you a get out of jail free card.  Maybe Darlington could go up to the police and slip them a $20 and says if they released Sheffler they can all pose for a photo together and as an added bonus Sheffler might be kind enough to sign a few golf balls.  

Time to golf!

Wow!!  The Golf gods would want him to get back on the green.  What is a couple of assault charges? His attorney is already on the phone trying to make things disappear. Sheffler said he wants to put this incident to the side and play golf today…its not like something serious happened and someone died! Going back to playing golf shows that this guy doesn’t give a damn what happened. 

If all these charges are true, he needs to go to jail just like the rest of us.  We all know if you play golf you dream of one day wearing a green jacket.  But orange does look good on him.   

“WE WANT BOSTON”

(5/8/24) Two weeks ago was when it started.  Dumb fans attending games and chanting things for the sake of chanting.  Fans who were at the game because their friend has a court date and couldn’t make it and others simply did not want to cancel their daily appointment at the tanning salon.  Let’s worry about skin cancer when the time comes.  For now looking bronze and half baked is priority one.  Welcome to Miami..Cue Will Smith song before he start slapping you… 

Miami fans chanting after beating the Bulls in the play in game: “We want Boston! We want Boston!”

Miami players got pumped and became extra motivated.  They point to the fact that they have Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro who was going to give the Celtics problems. Herro was going to be a sniper from the 3 point line while Adebayo was going to dominate inside the paint with no Porzingis for the Celtics.  They got the better coach in Eric Spolstra who can turn water into sunscreen to protect the citizens of Miami.  They also got Jimmy Butler who talks the talk from the bench and a great motivator in the locker room.  Jennifer Lopez is holding Ben Affleck hostage in Miami and whether Affleck ever sets foot in Boston again will depend on whether the Celtics do the right thing and throw the series.   

Result:  Boston beats Miami 4 games to 1..Sorry Ben, your just one guy and you did Batman a disservice.  On the bright side…if not for Adebayo and Herro, the Heat would have lost by 60 instead of 34 points in the close out game.

You figure fans around the country would have learned from Miami’s mistake but oh no…It was game 7 between the Cavs and Magic and in the closing minutes of the game….it happened….

Cleveland fans chanting…”WE WANT BOSTON! WE WANT BOSTON!”

We see Donovan Mitchell trying to calm the fans down because he is a smart guy.  Mitchell is probably thinking “these bunch of idiots just set us up for annihilation by Boston”

Game 1 result…Boston 120 Cavs 95..only a 25 point loss.

There have to be some penalty for these chants because it makes the fans of these cities look stupid and clueless.  The Celtics have been destroying teams during the season and Heat fans and Cleveland fans clearly think they have a chance.   Here are some season stats for how dominant the Celtics were during the regular season.

Thirty-nine of the Celtics’ wins have come by double digits, including 18 by at least 20 points, nine by 30-plus and three by 50 or more. They are the only team in NBA history to have three 50-point wins in one season, and are tied for the second-most 30-point victories in one season. 

The Celtics are the odds on favorite to win it all and things may have gotten easier now that the Nuggets are down 0-2 to Minnesota.  It is looking like either Minnesota or OKC is going to come out of the West and right on cue…these so called “great and smart fans” will be once again chanting…”We want Boston!!, We want Boston!!”

WHERE WERE YOU?

(4/28/24) There are moments in life you will always remember…such as where were you when your first child was born (hopefully you were next to your wife) or where were you when the Patriots came back from down 28-3 sealing the deal on the dumbest play call in the history of the NFL.  These moments in sports often help define players and turn them into legends.  Years from now, we will be asking ourselves where were you on April 23,2024 when Lebron showed us how great he was getting the last laugh on the Joker.  

Move over Jordan crossing over Bryon Russell for the winning jumper against Utah..The Great Lebron has given us a new ” MOMENT” in NBA history.  This shot from Lebron will be replayed millions of times in the future and will have all the sports talking heads on TV claiming this moment is what will separate Lebron from Jordan as the GOAT.  They will point out how Lebron exudes a perfect shooting form with his beautiful follow through.  Both teams converge for a rebound but Lebron does not move an inch because he knows his shot is pure and only euphoria will follow when the ball goes through the hoop.  Denvers fans will be traumatized by this moment while the fake people of LA will celebrate through the night with their fake friendships, drugs and alcohols filled parties.  Thank you Lebron for allowing us to cherish this moment with you and to bask with you in all your greatness.  

Please hold……We have received word that the shot did not go in.  Repeat, the shot did not go in!! 

Moments later…

We apologized but Lebron missed horribly on the 3 pointer.  It was wide left.  Lebron has once again choked when it comes to hitting a game winner.  Everything we said about this moment you can just trashed it from your memory.  Denver currently leads the series 3-1.  One more game and the Lakers will be eliminated and Lebron will have plenty of time to go convince every GM in the league to draft Bronny.  

2024 NBA DRAFT

(4/12/24) This years 2024 NBA draft is going to one of the worse ever. The #1 overall projected pick is some dude by the name of Alexandre Sarr from France?? Most Americans have heard of the Skar King but probably have no clue who this guy is.  Like most Americans I do have an affinity for French cuisine and if this guy were to knock on my door to borrow some ketchup for French Fries I would still have no idea who he is.  The 2nd overall pick is some dude by the name of Zaccharie Risacher.  Again, absolutely no clue who this guy is but I do like Worcestershire sauce on my steak.  These 2 picks pretty much sums up how bad this draft is.. when out of all the division 1 schools in the country…you need to go overseas to find a #1? Absolutely pathetic.  

Adding more fuel to this dumpster fire of a draft, we now have Bronny James declaring for the draft.  He is bringing his lack of talent to some NBA teams with his 4.8 points per game average in college while riding the bench at USC.  Don’t forget about his great 67.6% free throw percentage.  The defense better not leave him open for a 3 because he is shooting a lethal 26.7% from the arc. With the news that Bronny has declared for the draft…the following people are also throwing their names into the draft and it is expected that close to 10,000 people will be working out for teams at the draft.  Here are just a few of the hopefuls.

Bob,35:(Physics teacher with an IQ of 140) Strength: High Basketball IQ

Jerry,50:(ophthalmologist at the mall)Strength:Great court vision

John,26:(construction worker) Strength: Hard worker

Ray,22: (finished 1st in his fantasy basketball league): Strength:Loves the game

Sal,39 (participated in alot of trust falls) Strenght: Great team player

Pauly Parlay,50 (have never won a 15 team parlay but never gives up) Strength: Great mental toughness

So if Bronny can get drafted, so can you!!!

In all seriousness, Bronny is going to get drafted because of Nepotism at play.  If his dad was not Lebron and he declared for the draft..he might as well put on some colorful wig and sport a sponge red nose because he will be called a clown.  Secretly, you think Bronny really wants to be in the NBA knowing that he is going to be a target? There are going to be tons of players ready to posterize Bronny and run him over.  Bronny is going to get embarassed and it will be Lebron’s fault for putting his kid in that position.  All this baloney about Lebron wanting Bronny to be his own man is a big joke.  Lebron controls 100% of Bronny.  

We have gotten news that another person has thrown his name into the draft..

Tom,37 (High school referee and illegal bookmaker), wants to be a referee in the NBA so he can fix games.

THE INTERVIEW

(1/29/24) Twas the night before the big day….I ironed my favorite white collar shirt and dress pants and layed them perfectly on my sofa.  I then called up a rich buddy of mine and ask to borrow his rolex and his fancy car for a few hours.  I wanted to make a great impression that I was somewhere going somewhere.  I then went online and looked up the 10 most common questions an interviewer would ask and look up all the suppose right answers to those questions.  I practiced answering those questions for the next hour.  I was prepared like never and was going to ace this interview and was already thinking how I would spend my new paycheck from my new company.  I was working in the financial industry and this was going to be a big step up the corporate ladder.  I was ready to be a “Yes Man”.

Fast forward to the Interview…

I met with a few supposedly important people in the company and sat in that room for over an hour.  Every question that was thrown at me…I aced with flying colors.    It was a done deal.  This job was mine.  After a few handshakes and flashing my beautiful smile I headed out the door.  As I walked past the waiting area, there was this gorgeous girl in a short skirt sitting there.  I knew she was next to be interviewed and at that point I knew I was toast and dead meat.  Two days later I received a phone call from human resource and said they decided to go with another candidate because she was more qualified.  It was the last time I interviewed for another financial job as I left the industry.  The lesson to be learned is…eye candy will always prevail…

This brings us to the what do Bill Belichick and I have in common?  We both were very qualified for a job but end up didn’t get it because we were not eye candy.  The Atlanta Falcons interviewed Belichick for its open position and decided to hired Raheem Morris instead.  For Atlanta, shouldn’t this be a no brainer?  Belichick’s resume of 6 Superbowl rings apparently was not good enough.  Why bring him in for an interview at all?  Rumor has it that it came down to one question that decided the two candidates.   

COACHING CANDIDATE #1.

Atlanta Falcons: so Bill, what can you tell us about Atlanta and the hundreds of strip clubs in the area…We are the strip club capital of America if you didn’t know.  

Belichick: uummmm… I just want to focus on football.  Next question..

FAILED!!

COACHING CANDIDATE #2

Atlanta Falcons: so Raheem, what can you tell us about Atlanta and the hundreds of strip clubs in the area…We are the strip club capital of America if you didn’t know.

Morris: Well, I think they are great and absolutely love them.  Its a great place to watch people.  I would also encouraged the players to go often to take their mind off football and keep them fresh.  Them going and making it rain definitely will help Atlanta’s economic development.  

THUMBS UP!! LIKED!

The Falcons owners are as dumb as you can get but the players are happy.  Maybe the Falcons didn’t want Belichick to be a daily reminder of 28-3.  Belichick was going to be strict and when Falcon’s ownership went to the players for their opinion…the players of course didn’t want Belichick. Belichick hiring means no more time at the strip clubs.  Raheem Morris you know is going to try to relate to these players and what better way to build team chemistry then having coaches and players bond at strip clubs.  Coaches are also not worried about a bad loss because a good lap dance will put a smile back on the players’ faces.
