Jamal Crawford and Nate Robinson were born to play for Mike D’Antoni • Roger Mason Jr. can flat-out ball • LeBron James is making his free throws • Gerald Green might actually not be horrible but he still constantly looks illiterate • Tim Duncan is svelte • Jason Kidd almost has TRIPLE DOUBLES • Jerry Stackhouse still has something left • Chris Duhon, much like both teams, played hard • Derrick Rose will turn this entire League into his own personal Khmer Rouge killing fields • Josh Howard rocks slick blazers • Mike Bibby is important • Dirk Nowitzki just made his first three of the season • Trevor Ariza is a significantly better basketball player than Lamar Odom • Jason Kidd is TRIPLE DOUBLES • Tim Duncan is the only All Star in the League who plays like he has nothing to prove, in a good way • Jordan Farmar made JKidd look stupid • Derek Fisher is somehow more ripped than ever • Gary Payton is an enjoyable analyst • Chris Webber is not so much • Spencer Hawes swatted the piss out of Kwame’s weaksause dunk attempt • Detroit won the trade • Rashad McCants has inked up substantially • Andris Biedrins has moved to number one in my Haircut Power Rankings • Stephen Jackson has testicles the size of ripe melons • Randy Foye, Mike Miller and Rashad McCants should all be embarrassed about that final “possession” in regulation • Stephen Jackson has testicles the size of monster truck tires • Randy Foye, Mike Miller and Rashad McCants should all be embarrassed for every “possession” in overtime • Bobby Brown wants to rock wit’cha, baby. All. Night. Long.
Everybody knows that Bobby Brown's true forte is poker, not basketball. This guy is not impressed.

Weezy writes more than Bill Simmons these days. And here he is makin more thoughts rain on the NBA (in Sports Guy mailbag style no less). This is his advice to guys like Kobe and LeBron being wooed by deep-pocketed international clubs:
if you get one of these big clubs overseas offering one of these guys $150 million for three years? Absolutely, take it. Hell, Kobe already speaks a trillion languages, so it wouldn’t be new for him. LeBron should really go ’cause he’s got so much time. He could spend three years over there and come back $150 million dollars richer. Who wouldn’t take that? Come, on. The NBA better get it together or else they’re going to lose some marquee players, and it’s going to hurt bad.
On his pick for Rookie of the Year:
I’m a Beasley fan. He’s straight up. He’s real. He plays with emotion and drive and physicality. He gets to where he needs to be on the court. And when he gets to his spot, if he’s not gonna shoot it in your face man, he’s gonna dunk it in your face. And if he’s not gonna dunk it in your face he’s gonna dish it to the next man. There’s not a player in the game like Michael Beasley.
On his boy Chris Duhon:
I love the move they made naming my hometown dude Chris Duhon the starting point guard over Stephon Marbury. He is like, the man at home, and I just want him to know I’m pulling for him. So shout out to Chris Duhon, you’re the man.
