While Chris Bosh and Dwight Howard enjoy a meal in China, Chris Bosh sees a girl at the next table and I'm pretty sure that he calls her pretty.
I've already checked and he doesn't have a wife so this will do no harm. I know they won gold and all but shouldn't they have other priorities. Wouldn't it make sense to hit on a girl that lives within 5000 miles of home.
Update: According to Cuzzy (cuzoogle.com check it out) Chris Bosh does indeed have a girlfriend in Toronto.
China is not going to win a gold medal in this event. USA basketball beat the Chinese team 101-70. Yi and Yao were shut down by team USA. The game was estimated to be seen by at least a billion people including live and on TV.
America's little brother to the north took a beating while I was gone.
Here are the highlights.
The whole premise of this game was just mean. Did anyone really expect Canada to come out and show up Team USA. Let's just save time and hand them the gold medal right now and save other poor countries from embarrassment.
Three sad tales of players who couldn't stay out of trouble. Where would they be if they had, no one knows. But, hey, we can at least rate them.
3. Booger Smith (video has some strong language)
What??????? He didn't get any money from a documentary about himself? That is a travesty. Anyway, if he had made it to the NBA, his moves would have made him one of the best players of the past decade.
2. Demetrius "Hook" Mitchell-he has to be pretty good to be better than Kidd, even better if he can actually shoot.
1. Earl Manigault- his nickname is The Goat (Greatest Of All Time) for a reason. He may be exactly that.
Better than Wilt and Dr. J, now that is saying something. There is not much video of this guy in action, but with Kareem saying that, there is no doubt he is number one on this list. There is no way of ever knowing but if he had played, there would be a challenger to MJ's spot of the greatest ever to play in the NBA.
-Red Men (this obviously would not go over well, but Oklahoma translates to Land of the Red Men) -Conquerors (part of state motto) -Panhandlers (ode to Oklahoma panhandle) -Terror (this may also not go over well, but the Chicago Fire manage well) -Mountaineers (Oklahoma has 4 mountain ranges) -Tornado (state lies in tornado alley) -Pioneers (because of being the pioneer state) -Wrath (part of title of book about Oklahoma life in dust bowl era) -Bison (state mammal) -Herd (like a herd of Bison)
These are your viable options for a team name related to Oklahoma and Oklahoma City. I am in no way suggesting that the name should be offensive to anyone in any way, shape, or form.
Got a better name? Let me know and I will surely get to it.
It was July 31st, 2007 when the whole world saw a much brighter future for the Celtics. GM Danny Ainge made two earth shaking trades. He received Ray Allen from Seattle and Kevin Garnett from Minnesota. Both were aging veterans who both were tired of their losing careers and neither had won a title. Paul Pierce, who dodged trade rumors in Boston, was paired with KG and Allen and were quickly dubbed the "Big 3". Ainge was not done changing the team though. James Posey, P.J. Brown, Sam Cassel would all arrive in Boston as well. With only 24 wins in the 06-07 season many people in Boston were calling for coach Doc Rivers to be fired. The season started with many critics questioning how PG Rajon Rondo and Kendrick Perkins would keep up with the ability of the other three starters. At season's end both had bloomed into treats and not just the other two guys in the starting line-up. The Celtics made a record breaking turnaround and finished with 66 wins.
The 6th game of the Finals started with Boston leading 3-2 over LA. It ended with the Celtics as the champions. Ray Allen finished with 20 3's total in the Finals which broke a record. he also finished with 7 3's in Game 6 which tied the record of 3's in a Finals game. The Celtics as a team finished with 18 steals which broke a record for steals in a Finals game. The final score was Celtics 131- Lakers 92. No that's not a typo, the Celtics beat the Lakers by 39 points. 39! That margin of victory was only 2 points short of the record 42 points that the Bulls beat the Jazz by in a 1998 Finals game. Obviously, this game was not even close. With 4:55 left in the game the crowd was already singing Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey Hey, Goodbye!
In Phil Jackson's press conference his voice was nearly nullified by the noise of the fans that were still celebrating in stands. That sums up the series. The Lakers were over-powered by the Celtics. In all of Game 6, the Lakers grabbed only 2 offensive rebounds. No, that's not a typo either. They were terrible on defense also. Glen "Big Baby" Davis, was past the ball at half court and "flew" by all of the Lakers and proceeded to jam it on some dude's dome. A man that big should not be able to breeze past all of the defenders like he did (289 lbs.). All in all, the Lakers did not deserve to be on the court.
