The Celtics are just having too much fun this season! Look at ‘em! Pushin’ Rafer Alston over a bent Paul Pierce.
A perfect blend of LOLin’ and WINing.

We’ve yet to dispense any REAL excellent fantasy hoops advice for the stat heads and Holligner “PER” devotees out there, and perhaps that’s because we don’t want our GM secrets to get out. And so this gem is not going to be anything Earth shattering either, but here’s a can’t miss: waive Allen Iverson now! Or keep him at your peril and print up a snazzy: “Woe is Me, and A Disgruntled, Out of Work, Allen Iverson” tee. If you’re doing that deal, though, please put the tee up on Threadless, because I want one, but I don’t feel like designing it. Much like A.I., I’ve forfeited any semblance of effort towards a goal.

Austin Daye throws it down against Orlandito. It’s a rare dunk where it looks like a player’s entire body could fit through the cylinder.

Eduardo Najera had a heroic effort for the severely short-handed Nets, but in the end, New Jersey ran out of gas.  Consolation for the Nets:


LeBron hung out with minority owner Jay-Z tonight at the Garden.
At 0-6, they have the inside track in the John Wall sweepstakes; maybe LeBron wants to play with him.
Anytime you have to play Trenton Hassell for 45 minutes and only lose by three, that’s a moral victory.

After the way he played tonight, DJ Banger deserves 13 tacos.

No Andrew Bynum. No Pau Gasol. No problem. DJ Mbenga had a career-high 13 rebounds to go with his 4 blocks, and the Lakers cruised to an easy win. The strong play of Mbenga and Josh Powell should reassure Laker fans as Bynum nurses yet another injury. As for us, anything that will justify re-posting the “Tacos” video is good news.

Come next season, will he become the second best player with the initials L.J. to ever play for the Knicks?

The Celtics even tried bringing Lucky the Leprechaun to guard Jason Richardson, but Richardson was unstoppable, scoring 34 points on just 16 shots (including six three-pointers) to give Boston its first loss of the season.

Australia’s Andrew Bogut dominated Mississippi’s Al Jefferson on Jefferson’s home floor tonight. Though from the looks of the crowd, there was probably more interest in this game in Sydney than there was in Minneapolis.

Mike, what are you doing? You’re too old to be dunking. You can’t be doing that anymore.
