Mainstream music is cool in my book. FOB is basically a jock jam band now but their songs are still catchy as hell.

This is nominally a good thing, except it still treats divisions as if they mattered when in practice they're completely unnecessary.

If it guaranteed a spot it might be somewhat interesting for more teams fighting for playoff spots at the end of the year. More teams in the mix for spots at the end of the year is always a good thing.

I want that Cavs fan to explain to me how the Cavs are rocking the poo poo out of the NBA instead of asking questions. You watch the games, explain to me JR Smith's renewed greatness!

Anyway I love LeBron. If the Hawks and Warriors or Rox can't win the title then I hope LeBron gets his 3rd.

I'm not a big Cavs fan, but I've watched a bunch of games and have been posting all year they were going to be good when they got their team together. See my last post about Mozgov, and look at JR Smith from a couple years ago in New York. When he has a clear role and you don't ask him to do too much, JR is a good player. You start asking him to take a large role in your offense, he's not.

Right. They were an incomplete and hosed up team. They fixed their biggest hole at center, they replaced a sinkhole of sub replacement level dudes and Dion Waiters with a knock down shooter, and they have a competent if not as great as his reputation wing defender for the playoffs. They replaced 1/4 of their rotation with much better fits, Lebron got his rest, sun's shining, birds chirping.


In other news, Larry Sanders's suspension ends on saturday, he can play against the Celtics if he wants to/the team wants him to. I wish there was some word about him. I want Larry to come back and lead the Bucks to a first round upset.

JR Smith can do two things well, drive and shoot. He is usually too lazy/tired to drive, so when he is basically just asked to shoot he is a really good player with the drive available to keep defenses honest.

He's a good, and I'll even say smart, transition guy too, which works well with Lebron, Love and Kyrie.

They have the most talented team in the league and I don't think it's terribly surprising. Also seems like Lebron was banged up early in the year and is back to full strength.

Chris Paul doesn't think women can referee.

Or that is what Twitter is twisting his comments about the female ref in the game they got got by the Cavs today.

What did Paul say that was so bad? I mean he'll get fined for criticizing a ref but I can't find anything that says it's because she's a woman.

All the inflammatory stuff I saw was that he added "...this might not be for her." at the end of his complaints. Using a pronoun is having a bigger effect than one would think.

Maybe he said worse. I dunno.
