Not watching the game on account of Lost, but Pech's per-40 numbers are actually pretty good

I'm sure it depends...
If Ernie can move some of our “assets” (expiring contracts, young talent) for a veteran…..
Perhaps there will be roster room for both the 1st and 2nd round picks…
Bullets Forever - where "Dagger ! " happens......
I'd like to give Ernie the chance to pick up a Chalmers type in the early first round
That guy was such a steal, even though I see him solely as a role player/complimentary type. A fast point guard who can guard the Rondos and Tony Parkers of the league while moving the ball and hitting the occasional three is my dream scenario. Failing that, the 32nd or 33rd pick is a pretty nice sweetener in a deal, especially with a team like, say, Toronto that’s fond of Euros.

Anyone watching New Orleans/San Antonio.
Michael Finley just hit a 3 at the buzzer to tie the game.

I'm about to start streaming it now
I don’t get channel 8 or whatever it’s called due to my cable package, and Dallas is up against Houston by 9 with 1:31 left.

I got it on LP
What an unbelievable play set up by Pop. With multiple options and everything.
Wes Jr. would be proud.

Oh my god
Juan Dixon, this is pathetic.

Dou think Tapscott is thinking on the sideline
Why didn’t I just stick to being a lawyer. If I had I done that I could be working for the President or billing $300 an hour as a partner in a D.C. law firm instead of putting myself through this for 5 months.

I'll admit my expectations for him were raised
with him being a key component to Maryland’s championship win and all. I knew he’d have problems being an undersized SG, but in all his time in the League, I haven’t seen much growth (in terms of trying to be more of a combo guard).

Great season, guys
I meant the posters, not the team.

And more weird final night occurences
Kwame Brown has 17 and 13 for the Pistons as they are going to OT against the Miami Heat.

I just noticed that
Maybe it’s some kind of sign re: our pick. Hopefully.

Another game where 3-point shooting hurt the Wizards
Bullets Forever - where "Dagger ! " happens......
If the Wizards win the lottery
you’ll want to french kiss Juan Dixon as much as I do right now.
I hate to admit it, but you're right
I literally feel sick to my stomach wanting anything less than a Wizards victory, but it’s for the better.

Come oooooooooooooooooooooon, Clippers!
LA’s probably deeper in its own crazy way than the Thunder, so I’d say that there’s a better than normal chance that they pull off the upset.

Wow
Spurs beat Hornets, so New Orleans is the seven seed.
In other news, Daniel Gibson hit a three to send Philly/Cleveland into OT. Go 76ers!

Chris Quinn is locking it down for the Heat tonight
26 points, 4 assists and 5 boards tonight

Bullets Forever is actually updated almost every day during the summer
Sometimes it’s just to do a retrospective on Moses Malone or someone named Hot Plate, but there’s a pretty steady stream of new content, which is pretty nice when no one else is writing about the Wizards.

Also, stay tuned for some first-hand summer league coverage
Oops, I’ve told too much.
(Crossing fingers here).

I think it's pretty much a done deal....
IF the Wizards send a team… which is not automatic… Several clubs are not sending a team to Vegas this year… (cost cutting…… really, really STUPID cost cutting).
Bullets Forever - where "Dagger ! " happens......
Andre Miller and the foul
Tie game. Go Sixers

Is it bad that everytime they show Wally Szczerbiak's mugshot
That I want to punch him in the face.

Andre missed both.
At least I can pretend the Cavs fans are saying “Lets go caps!” instead of “Lets go cavs!”

Depends...
Do you have Cavemen?
Do you hate the Geico commercials?
Then no, it’s not bad.

76ers win!

Happiest day of the year.

Is there anything that sums the Clippers up better than this

Their entire line up has been healthy for a while, too
We suck, too, but at least we’ve been missing 2.5 starters and a handful of key reserves for most of the season. I hate piling on a team that’s so far down, but they really need to just burn it down and start over again. Not just the players, or even the management, or even the owners; they need a new name, new colors, and maybe even a new city (I only say maybe because it’s so profitable for them to play in LA).
