Vegas needs a pro sports team!

Posted by Brian | Random Blog | Tuesday 13 January 2009 2:18 am

Ok I’ve been in the lovely Sin City Las Vegas for the last 3 days, and I concluded that they need a professional sports team.  Baseball, basketball, football.  Oh hell, even hockey.  Just give them something.  It will certainly draw more people out here.  Not like we need an excuse to go to Vegas, but this just adds another one to the column.

Speaking of Vegas, yes I bet on the NFL playoff games this week.  And yes, I won.  Ravens and Eagles!  Nice little payout.

Too little too late?

The Warriors finally pick up a win today at home against the Pacers.  And if you saw that game, man it was too gut-wrenchingly close.  It was funny to see ex-Warrior, Mike Dunleavy bet boo’ed everytime he touched the ball. 

Crawford finished the game with 32 points, and hit the go-ahead 3 pointer with 11 seconds left.  The Warriors poor defense resulted in Danny Granger’s 42 points!  Honestly glad it was Granger with a big night rather than the ex-Warriors Mike Dunleavy or Troy Murphy.

I realized that this mighty, long-awaited win brought our record to a disappointing 11-28.  With only half of the season left, and the Conference only getting tougher, it might be time to build up our rooks for the next few years before the Warriors see any sort of playoff contention.

Did anyone catch that quick elbow from Belinelli to Granger in the first half?  haha those Italians.

Boston hits the Great Wall

After a ridiculous 19 winning streak, Boston comes home to lose to the Rockets without Tmac - making it the 6th loss of the last 8 games. 

Is it just me or does it seem like they’re defensively and emotionally flat?  Seeing them beat the Lakers last season was a savored moment for many Laker haters.  For this season, out of every NBA team, I feel like Boston was the only team capable of taking down LA again this season…until theyre poor performanace on Christmas.  I’d like to see how they perform against the other dominat team of the East on Friday - The Cavaliers who are one less win in the record than Boston.

Another game, another long night for the Warriors

Goodness gracious.  The Warriors need to learn how to shoot in the last 5 to 7 mins of the game. What the hell?!

I swear 3 out of 4 games always end like this: Warriors are winning or tied with about 5 minutes to go.  Then they turn cold.  Ice cold.  Can’t hit anything.  Turn the ball over.  Turn the ball over again.  Miss more shots.  Lose by 10.

I think we were tied at 78 or 81 or something like that, and then boom.  Gasol offensive rebound, little baby hook.  Boom, Gasol rebounds again, another baby hook.

Whatever.  Again, rebuilding year.

Laker’s Sun Yue’s Hot Girlfriend

Yeah yeah yeah, I know this is a little old, but I just ran across this article again.  About 2 months ago, Yahoo Sports reported that Sun Yue’s girlfriend is actually a pretty darn hot  supermodel.  Ok maybe not smoking hot, but she’s definitely cute. Gu Chen, you have my vote!

It’s good to be a Laker, I guess.  Now the only question left is: When is Sun actually going to get some playing time on the Lakers?
