Suggestions to make the NBA Finals better…

The NBA finals are here. Or at least I think that it’s the finals. Judging from watching what I thought was Game 2, there must be a reason for calling it the NBA finals. The Cavs could not look more final than what I saw. Golden State is kicking ass. Why is the NBA forcing us to watching this on prime time? This is the type of game that should be played on ESPN 17 or something…You know the ESPN that shows like spelling bees and nerds playing video games and stuff. It’s clear to see that God loves the Warriors more than the Cavs. Everybody on their team is hitting 3’s. Coaches. Ball boys. Hell at one point I thought I saw Riley Curry in the game. And even she hit 2 threes. Golden State is making the Cavs look bad. Like Cleveland Browns Quarterbacks, bad. Like Bone Thugs N Harmony when they need their cornrows done, bad. Like Jim Brown’simage feet from “I’m Gon Git You Sucka” bad. (*)

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have a few suggestions because America shouldn’t have to watch such dominance. I mean at least at the YMCA they have a mercy rule. So to make this series a little more…bearable to watch, how about this:

1. Golden State has to only play with 4 players on the court. And they cannot be the light skinned players either. This eliminates Steph, Clay, Shaun Livingston, the one that kinda looks like Usher, and the one with the curly hair. Maybe then the Cavs will have a shot at making this a little more competitive. They still wouldn’t win but, at least I will wait to watch to Game of Thrones until the game goes off. Awe who am I kidding? I would still watch G.O.T live.
2. Get the refs involved…Lets call a few extra traveling calls…an extra foul here and there. Got something to say about it?
Technical Foul! Still talking? Another technical foul, you’re outta here! It still won’t be close but at least it will be more fun to see that this blowout.

3. Bring back the OKC vs. GSW series. Now THAT was a series. THATS how a finals should be played. Unfortunately it was the Western Conference Finals.

These are just a few ways to make this series better. Because game 2 was so bad, the commentators weren’t even talking about the game anymore. Hell Jeff Van Gundy started talking about what he had for lunch and how he can’t wait to see the new Ghostbusters movie. Now don’t get me wrong, I wanna see the new Ghostbusters movie too. imageI think it’s gonna be good. I just wanna see a good NBA finals first.

 

 

 

Bad Luck Ben

Bad Luck Ben

Ben Simmons has bad luck. Like Keith From “Good Times” bad luck. Like broke a mirror 7 years of bad luck, bad luck. Like getting with Halle Berry, only to find out she is crazy and probably has halitosis and body odor, bad luck. Ben Simmons has been sold to us sports fans as the best basketball player since Bow Wow got those special shoes in “Like Mike.” Presumptive number 1 overall pick in this year’s draft. And we are conditioned to believe that great players rise above their circumstances and lift their teams to victory anyway possible.

Then Ben went to LSU…and they didn’t even play in the NIT.

(They need to go on Maury)

And just when you wanted to cheer him on and say, “Well next year he won’t have to deal with this”, Philadelphia wins the draft lottery and they are very likely to draft him. I feel bad for Ben. What did he do to deserve this? He must didn’t “type Amen” on one of those Facebook posts. It’s bad enough that he looks exactly like Sam Bowie, considered to be top 5 in Draft Bust History. Now he has to go to Philly.

Philly has been the league’s doormat. A punchline. The 76ers are the Washington Generals of the NBA. Hell, the only person who took more “L’s” than the 76ers over the past 2 seasons is Meek Mill…and HE IS FROM PHILLY. Bill Cosby is from Philly. Even the Fresh Prince mama saw this coming and sent her son to California years ago. Philadelphia is like the new Cleveland. It’s the black hole of winning. image And now he is going to have to go there and endure that dysfunction. Why, Philly, Why? Allen Iverson did not die for you all to be this bad…

He didn’t die? He is still alive? Oh…

Well you get what I mean. Well at least he will have his massive shoe contract to wipe his tears because he definitely won’t be winning in Philly. Is it too late to go back to college? Just a thought…I’d rather play another year for free than play for Philly…Nah I am lying.  But damn…Philly?

Reggie Jackson Gets Bodied Up

Reggie Jackson may be Detroit’s best player, but he had a rough outing against Lebron and the Cavs. Case in point:

Of course, this lit up Russell Westbrook’s mentions.
