How do you like me now?

I wanna make excuses for how my beloved T-Pups are losing because their team is decimated with injuries right now, but the Bulls are winning without Rose and Deng right now. Kinda makes those excuses irrelevant
Clips playing without CP3 tonight against OKC, doesn't look good but should still be a battle.
Phoenix talk radio is crazy today. First Lon Babby and Lance Banks gave an hour and a half interview on the firing of Alvin Gentry and hiring of Lindsey Hunter, where they avoided every tough question asked of them, and now Dan Majerle is in studio going off about how he and Elston Turner were disrespected. He went on to say that the interview process was rigged and he was never given a real shot at the job.
This ain't no middle of the mall shit.
Sarver needs to sell the team, get Barkley and Wilbon involved, they can be the Magic Johnsons of Phoenix and open up their own Filibertos or something
Today I scoffed at a person wearing a Suns hat.
As bad as the Suns have been they're closer to the Lakers in the standings than the Lakers are to the 8th seed.
And guess who gets the Lakers pick... that's right, the Suns, so they should have two lotto picks. And though many say it's a weak draft they've also said the same thing about many recent drafts that have ended up being pretty good.
hahahahahaha
Yeah you guys are right. I just find myself picking regular season MLB games over NBA playoff games come May and June. I guess that speaks to my general dissatisfaction with the NBA product in general.
Barkley involved with the Suns would clearly get me interested.
Starting to dislike Grandma and the Warriors as they both have been running their mouths too much. First, Granny, and her never ending immediate self-congratulatory comments after a win. Then the Warriors announcers and players openly saying Lee is better than Griffin (erm, no). Steph (what kind of name is Steph btw? A woman's, right?) Curry only showing emotion the other day when the game was obviously in hand. Also how they try to copy the Clips camaraderie and jubilant bench activity, but with a much less interesting cast of characters. Their coach is also a smug a-hole.
Actually, I hate the Warriors now. And fuck Grandma too.
Only reason I'm ok with the Warriors doing well is it keeps Marc Jacksons arrogant voice off TV. David Lee is no slouch but he's also no Blake Griffin and his tough guy routine is getting old. But I don't really get your "Steph" argument, the Suns just promoted a guy named Lindsey to their head coach and I also used to think Caron Butlers name was girly as well.
You're just mad that we beat you three times Clips fan.
Oracle was rocking last night. Steph Curry is a golden god with a flimsy beard.
Though I do support the Clippers I'm from Phoenix and am Suns fan at heart, just hate their ownership at the moment and live in Los Angeles and watch every Clipper game, but I also watch every Laker game out of spite. I'm happy to see the Warriors doing well to be honest. Neither the Clippers or Warriors are going to win it all so Í'm not mad. I kinda enjoy the rivalry that's starting to brew between those two teams.
Clips can win it all this year. Chauncey has hardly played and he's the starting SG. It'll come down to either them, SA, OKC, or Miami.
Barring injury I don't see anyone knocking out OKC this year, not even Miami.

The Replacements - OutKast - The Knife - HAIM - Bonobo - Afghan Whigs - The Glitch Mob - The Cult - Shlohmo - Waxahatchee - Wye Oak

These are the weakest all star lineups in possibly the last 15 years
Tyson Chandler? I mean yeah I haven't been paying close attention this season.. but Tyson Chandler?
I get the shock factor defense. But this is easily going to be the worst name in sports.
But this isn't Walt Disney studios. They could of been something like the New Orleans Knights (goes with the Saints), but no. They picked a loner bird, that is rarely seen in groups, doesn't even fly in formations and scoops up fish for living.
This is the NBA, no need for the names from a 4th grade girls soccer team.
He is actually having a great year and he has been such an impact defensively that he deserves it. Joakim Noah too. Biggest joke to me is Lamarcus Aldridge. Damion Lillard has easily been the best player from that team. It's tough that NBA politics pass him over for veterans.
He's a great defensive player who has a tremendous affect on the game. I would have picked him. I really don't have a problem with any of the selections. I think I would have picked Stephen Curry over Tony Parker, but even that's not a glaring thing.
Whoever said Deron Williams got snubbed hasn't been paying attention. There's no way he deserves to be an All-Star this year.
I wish they would stop the fan voting thing. I say this as a Lakers fan but no way in hell Dwight deserves to be on the All Star team this season. Kobe deserves it but no way in hell a team 10 games under 500 or so deserves two people on it, let alone two starters.
