So who’s it gonna be . . . Dale Davis or Jamaal Magloire . . . who is going to be our grizzly bear wrestler covered in honey?

Speaking of Boston, I think they’ve shown some telling signs of weakness in the past few games. Namely, their younger players and some of their bench guys are foul-crazy. Glen Davis picked up 5 fouls in like 8 minutes the other day against Phoenix, and Iverson and Carmelo had more than 13 free throw attempts each (Iverson had 20 attempts). This suggests to me that the younger guys on that team can’t handle slashers (Carmelo and Iverson. Baron Davis and Monta Ellis had a field day, too) or legit inside presences (Amare) that well without fouling. Nobody on the team is that great at drawing fouls except for Billups, but I think Stuckey’s ability to attack the rim may turn out to be big against Boston’s foul-happy bench.

Not to fret Kevin S. Dbb may have an occasional shallow post but you should read some of the questions in the weekly ‘mail bag’ on pistons.com. I had to stop reading it brotha. Things like “trade Flip, Herman & Brezec for Dwight Howard” or “Lindsey, Flip & Herman for Kobe”. Truly assanine stuff man. Trust me, DBB Nation has an extremely high basketball IQ. That’s why I enjoy chatting with you guys (& gal). Real basketball insight. Not much “Chauncey is da-bomb”. I don’t see the Cleveland trade making a drastic difference. They may be better but not enough to beat the Celtics or us (I hope ). 2:30 tip off. Lets go boys. We’ll need good spacing on offense, our guards driving and dishing and ferocious Defense.

E-Double: Life in LA is great (though it’s been unusually cloudy and unseasonably chilly lately), thank you for asking. Good to see you back, brother in Blue. How are things going for you?

Kevin S.: I laughed at your post, heartily.

Boney: You honestly believe that Amir would get the nod over Maxiell (assuming the question you were asked plays out next season)? I hadn’t given it much thought, but it’s certainly possible. I think answering “Maxiell is too small” is kind of irrelevant when you look at all the success we had with a 6′8″ center. Amir looks good, maybe he is our starting PF next year if it’s not Dice. Technically though, he’d have to prove himself more consistent if we want to retain “Best Starting 5″ bragging rights.

Looks like Big Ben is going to wear #4 for the Cavaliers. He’s no longer a star enough to displace even Sasha!

What’s up E-Double?

Amir Johnson’s presence is being felt among those that follow in the NBA in my group of friends. I got asked a question last night that I would’ve laughed off any other time:

“Who’s going to start next season over McDyess? Dice is a FA after this season, and likely won’t come back unless he comes off the bench”

To which I answered:

“I think Amir has earned his chance, Maxiell is too small”

Then I chugged my beer and quietly prayed for a championship run this year because I know Sauce will boycott the NBA if Amir Johnson graduates to a starting spot next year.

“I think Matt opened a can of worms putting the post stats on the main DBB page. It’s just driving us to make inane chatter to “pad our stats.””

Maybe he could have a penalty system for lame posts. For example:

“Chauncey = da’ bomb”

“Kobe Bryant is barely even an all-star”

“I think the Golden St. Warriors have what it takes for a deep playoff run.”

“Regardless of his performance, Stuckey performed well.”

“Love that Jason Kidd trade for Dallas.”

Get back soon PG4L. Hey Lawyerboy, how’s life in LA-LA land? What up Boney, Sauce, Quick Darshan. Happy to see the Pistons have returned from the All Star break, finally. I bleed Pistons blood but I hate when they go on these 2-3 game ego trips occasionally and expect teams to just lay down for them. We can beat anyone in the league when we have our heads screwed on straight. I hope we don’t have anymore ego trips these last 27 games. As long as we use the 3 as a weapon and don’t try to live by it, we should be fine. I need McDyess to find his jumpshot before the playoffs start. But I do love the rebounding and toughness defensively. Once Maximus gets his legs back under him, watch out. He and Amir will reak holy hell man. We’ll probably win 10 straight again. Can’t wait for the Phoenix game tomorrow. The world must be ending cause the mighty Celtics have lost 3 straight out West. Can you believe it. Lets go Stones, we’re heading down the home stretch boys.

Rob: Talking about players I have basketball crushes on is never inane chatter, if you ask me! Of course, if you ask anyone else, I like the sound of my voice (or in this case, keyboard?) too much. And I think padding stats is no harm, those guys in Boston (*cough* Patriots *cough*) are big fans so it must be right.

And to answer what E-Double asked, we all miss her dearly, but last we heard of her (much earlier in the month, I believe) she briefly stated that she is tending to personal matters (I think associated with her family).

Well, if they captured her, it would be a bit like the kidnappers who didn’t realize how much trouble their victim was. She’d give them fits with her lengthy analysis of the look and style of Noah. She’d also advocate they bring back Pippen.
