W.I.N.N.E.R.S.
And a bonus movie trailer just for fun
It is FRI-DAY, the best day of the week. The Pistons march through the playoffs has met little resistance. For all the talk about LeBron and the Cavs taking it easy this season, I can remember the Pistons playing hard for about 2 or 3 weeks. They had a long winning streak as soon as they picked up Webber, and it gave them enough separation to be able to hold on to home court all the way through. They even went through a stretch where every member of the team seemed to be taking time off with “the flu.” The two teams having the easiest time in the playoffs are the ones that went through the motions in the regular season. As for last night’s W.I.N.N.E.R., it’s Tayshaun Prince with 23 and 11. Glad that’s out of the way.
Yesterday we put up Omar’s final slamonline review, which was Spiderman 3. I just saw the trailer for another movie that is begging for an Omar review, but you’ll have to go to his new locale to find it. That movie is Fantastic 4:Rise of the Silver Surfer. The first F4 movie was unspeakably horrible. Dr. Doom was in costume for about 5 minutes. So, they have a lot of work to do to make up for that debacle. However, there was a huge difference in the quality between X-Men and X2. This trailer makes it look like the Fantastic Four series will be the same. Or maybe I’m just a sucker? Whatever, I just want to see Galactus.
Alright, tonight it’s Golden State-Utah in their blessedly entertaining series. The Utah fans won’t be there to hurl racial slurs at the Warriors players. Tomorrow the NBA goes back to the two game per night format.
Have a great weekend everyone.

not surprised that Utah fans hate on the GSW. They’re just jealous because they finally get to watch exciting basketball games.

Jax says:
Is SJax really providing that veteran leadership/championship experience in the locker room?
May.11 at 4:49 pm
ALX8725 says:
Jax, yes I think he is. No one else on GSW has a ring, Jax has plenty of experience. Jax, despite his run-ins with the law, and his psycho outburst in Detroit, is a glue guy. He is always there for his teammates, all his teammates love him, Nellie praises him most of the time and Coach Popovich loves him. Timrobot called Jax the “greatest teammate” he’s ever played with…

Jax is helping out, but its still all on Boom Dizzle. Boom Dizzle essentially keeps Jax in check.

I’d like to think that a new F4 movie will get its act together.

I heard it was the refs who uttered the racial slurs.

Remember when Derek Harper’s response to the possibility of playing in Utah: You go live in Utah.

Hate to break it to u Sam, but Galactus will not take the likeness that we know from the comics… http://www.aintitcool.com/node/32426

The last time Jazz was destroyed this thoroughly it was done by Kenny G.

Baron posterizes AK47 like a SAVAGE.

scott says:
how can anything with Jessica Alba in it be bad? ok don’t answer that. Oh and by the way Sam, I heard Galactus is going to be represented as some sort of a “storm cloud”, as in not-a-massive-ass-giant-planet-eating-mofo-with-a-huge-G-on-his-belt. If thats true, what a cop out….

ALX8725 says:
the Jazz got dismantled tonight. Baron was a beast tonight… well… he’s been a beast every night during these playoffs.

i need to go drinking (heavily) after that dunk by baron. drunken game notes coming up in a few hours. whooo!
May.11 at 11:55 pm
ALX8725 says:
I think the Sportscenter top 10 plays tonight will all be Baron plays from the game.

ALX8725, you were right about BD5 posterizing AK47

Everything was going so well for the Russian Rifle, and then he has to go get screensaverized by BD

Regarding Stejax as having his players back, how many players will go into the stands and throw “haymakers” for you? Do any of you remember how angry John Saunders was immediately following the live coverage of the malice at the palace? That shit was funny. His incredulity at the whole thing. I want to call that Stephen WarJax or WarJack…reminds me of Kojak only WarJak is not really a crime fighter but an instigator. Yes, Warjak got your back but tomorrow he better have a bigger game. That is the best way he can have Too Easy’s back.

By the way, did any photographer capture the actual Too EAsy throwdown on AK? I have seen photos of the windup but did anybody capture the actual dunk? That photo would have to be the SADM.

Lang, what you said is true, but Miami took part of the year off too, and they got F*!@#ed for it….

GS/Utah boys needed some cover, at least when playoffs is over. That’s the least SLAM could do. Please…

Fantastic 4! You mean Derron, Okur, AK and Booz. Well if Golden State’s Silver Surfer, Baron Davis keeps on rising (especially all over AK 47) we’re gonna want more sequels. Eh, i just wanted to use that labored analogy. BDiddy has always been my fave player, but i’m a believer in Utah’s system as well. Winner of this matchup makes it to the finals. Yes you heard me!

Jessica Aaaaahlba in blonde.. Yuueahhh! Lordy, what a specimen.

That “booster” dunk by Whoo!! on Andrei in the first half was nearly as vile as B-Diddy’s later on. He nearly kneed AK47 in the head. Vile.
