NBA PLAYOFFS COLUMN & FREE PICKS:
It has been an interesting week for the NBA with the first week of playoffs coming to an end and the deadline to apply for this year’s draft quickly approaching. With next year’s draft (to be known from now on as the Greg Oden lottery) promising to be one of the deepest in years, every marginal underclassman is declaring for this year’s draft. PJ Tucker, Shawnee Williams, Gary Coleman, Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka, and even Aaron “I put the stiff in big white stiff” Gray are testing the waters. This can’t be good for anyone, seriously, these players are just bad, even in a down year for talent. On the brightside, the playoffs have already given us several juicy subplots to whet our appetites for the second round showdowns.
Therefore, I thought it would be interesting to list the 6 biggest subplots of the first week of the playoffs and relate them to some of my favorite pornographic sites on the internet (and I know “pornographic” and “site” are a bit redundant since it is unclear there are any non-pornographic sites, but I digress).
NBA Story: Dallas’ domination of the Memphis Grizzlies
Porn site it reminds me of: The Bang Bus http://www.bangbus.com/t1/
Just like the BangBus guys, who lure young ladies into their van and then offer them cash in order to violate all of their orifices (or is it orifi? I guess potato, puhtato), the Mavs have invited the Grizzlies into their Arena and used them as their own personal sock babies. Dirk and crew have abused the Grizzlies so much I believe I saw Gasol referring to Dirk as his daddy. This series is ugly, and not just because Fratello loves to overcoach, but because Dallas is just too stacked. Memphis, like the participants in the Bang Bus, is just fresh meat for Dallas to do with what it pleases, but oh is it enjoyable to watch. You actually believe Memphis is enjoying it, even as they catch the facial.
NBA Story: Artest elbows Ginobli in the head and gets suspended
Porn site it reminds me of: Anything with Clown Porn http://clownpornmovies.dooza.com/
Ok, I will admit this is not my genre and I had to do a google search to find a site, so you clown porn fans need to take it easy on me if what I posted is not good clown porn. Even though I said I would be talking about my favorite sites, how else do you explain Ron Artest other than clown porn? You see, neither one of them make any sense. I mean, I’m all for variety, and to each his own, but getting off by watching clowns have sex is as sane as throwing a random elbow when you know everyone in commissioner’s office is waiting for you to slip up. I actually think Artest’s constant bad behavior is beyond his control, in the same way that people who dig clown boning is beyond their control. I mean seriously, if you could stop it, wouldn’t you?
NBA Story: Kenyon Martin getting suspended by the Nuggets
Porn site it reminds me of: www.Welivetogether.com
Ahh, Denver’s situation is like one of my favorite sites of all time, Welivetogether.com, which features blond hair, nubile young lesbians, sharing a beach house and random hot chicks with each other. You see, the Nuggets have to learn to live together and apparently they can not do it with Kenyon Martin. It would be like bringing a dude into the Welivetogether.com house (and please don’t ever ever do that, you hear me?). The Nuggets finally had enough of Kenyon’s constant whining, bullying, and overall bad attitude, and decided for the time being they can’t live together. The funny thing is, the Nuggets are 29-9 without Martin so this may actually be a good move for them. They are going to lose to the Clips either way, but at least without Martin they can lose with some dignity.
NBA Story: Detroit dominates at both ends of the floor
Porn site it reminds me of: www.Bigtitsroundasses.com
With Detroit adding an offensive game plan to go along with their dominant defense, they now have big tits to go with their round asses, in other words, the best of both worlds. Nothing is better than a nice bubble butt and some big ass hooters and that is what Detroit realized when they brought in Flip Saunders who was able to give them more offensive freedom. They are going to be tough to beat because rarely do teams execute so well on both halves of the court. I don’t think they are a lock for the finals (I have been touting Miami) but the smart money may be with the Pistons.
NBA Story: Kobe vs Nash for MVP
Porn site it reminds me of: www.Thumbnailpost.com and www.jenna.com (jenna jameson’s site)
This may take some explaining but the comparisons are quite obvious. Thumbnailpost.com, which is a compilation of daily free galleries grouped together by genre, is like Steve Nash. I say this because it lets you sample the day’s best photos whether they be lesbian, cumshots, big boobs, or any other type of picture you want. It is a team website as it lets you dabble in a little bit of everything just as Nash plays the team game and distributes the ball to all of his teammates. One minute you might want lesbians and the next amateurs, while one play Nash will find Boris Diaw for a lay-up and on the next play he will find Shawn Marion. Nash spreads it around, like the thumbnailpost does for those who don’t have one dominant genre in mind. On the other hand, Kobe is like Jenna.com, it is all about him. If you just want to see a hot chick performing at the top of her game, you go to Jenna. She can take over a whole scene by herself. She is the Kobe Bryant of porn, only without the rape accusation. In my opinion, they are both MVPs, it just depends on for what you are looking.
NBA Story: LeDong’s first playoff appearance
Porn site it reminds me of: Any of the old Taylor Rain videos such as those on www.Cumfiesta.com
You can always tell your kids where you were when you saw LeDong make the leap, just as I can tell mine where I was when I first came across Taylor Rain (and if I don’t tell them, I assume they will just find it on my harddrive). Two years ago, I shared a password to Deluxepass.com (the greatest movie site in the history of the internet) with Wagercom.com’s own Jiggy Donuts. While talking with Jiggy about the site on the phone, he guided me to some Taylor Rain videos. I can remember it like yesterday, sitting on my couch, having Jiggy on the cell leading me through the nooks and crannies of Deluxepass (oh deluxe pass, how I miss thee). For that, I will always be grateful to the Jigster and I will always remember when that bright meteor Taylor Rain first came into my life (and if you can find her original CumFiesta movies, download immediately, do not pass go, do not stop to get tissues). In the same way, I think we will always remember LeDong ripping off a triple double in his first playoff game as the time when he began his ascension. This is LeDong’s world, and we’re all just living in it.
So without further ado, on to this weeks picks:
NBA PLAYOFF FREE PICKS:
Cleveland +3 at Washington:
Ok, so the Cavs played a stinker of a game the last time out. Big deal. Last I checked they were still playing the Wizards and the Wizards are about as good as gonorrhea. I am pretty sure LeDong is not going to have 10 turnovers again, which means the Cavs should win this one straight up. How can you not bet against a team that has Antonio Daniels as their 6th man?
San Antonio at Sacramento +2.5:
This is a very tough game to handicap. On one hand, you have Clown Porn Artest back in the line-up (and if he had played in game 2, the Kings likely would have won), but on the other hand, you have a focused Spurs team. The Spurs are either going to come out and blow the Kings away, or the Kings are going to keep it close. Problem is, we won’t know until the end of the first quarter when our money will already be on the line. I originally took the Spurs in 6 games, so I might as well stick with that. This is pretty much a must win for the Kings.
Phoenix +3 at La Lakers:
Sorry guys, I am not buying into the Lakers like everyone else in the world. The Suns had a bad game, simple as that. Shawn Marion is not going to play like crap two games in a row, even if Phil Jackson’s game plan is to go right at him. I do have to give credit to Jackson for doing a terrific job with his team of Kobe and the 11 dwarves, but the Suns have too much fire power and D’Antoni will adjust his strategy. Look for the Suns to win by 7.
Saturday's NBA Playoff Picks
Wow, I have to say I was impressed by the Laker team last night. The way Odom has abused Marion has officially made the Kenyon Martin destruction of Antoine Walker phase. With Marion struggling, the Suns just have no one to consistently get Nash’s back. I still think they will find their way out of this but Phil Jackson has done a terrific job with the Lakers team.
New Jersey at Indiana +2:
This is one of those lines that makes no sense to me. How can the Nets be favored in Indiana when they have lost 2 of 3? Usually when I see a line like this, there is something I don’t know and I am wrong, so be cautious. However, AC did pick the Pacers to win and I am sticking with it. Plus ESPN analyst and former worst head coach in professional basketball, John Carroll, likes the Nets, so the Pacers have that going for them. Just hope Jermaine O’Neal and Peja can keep it going.
Dallas at Memphis Over 181:
Memphis is going to have to start scoring to win. Look for them to try to run the ball and feed off the energy of the hometown crowd. If Gasol can play like a #1 guy and not wilt under pressure like usual, the Grizz should give them a run today.
Detroit -6 at Milwaukee:
Detroit sucks when they give more than 5 points on the road but the Bucks just plain suck. Just hope the Pistons can keep the pressure on in the 4th quarter and don’t let their lead slip away.
LA Clippers at Denver Under 192:
Again, what exactly does Denver do well?
