Today, For the first time in 65 Blazers Regular Season games - I decided, Deliberately- Not to Tune in for the Blazers @ Staples game. I knew, For some reason, I shouldnt.
Earlier this Morning, Tel Aviv Local time, When I woke up - and Saw that 6 Figure at the beginning of the Box Score- the only thing I could say to myself - Was I Made A mistake. A mistake that later today, would turn into the good thing I thought I did earlier. As you probably realized - I thought, at the beginning- I make a mistake Not tuning In, Missing that performence.. And Know what? I like Kobe. I adore him. Even as a blazer, I think he's the No.1 offensive player ever seen on this globe- I even like his personality. I'm not a player hater.
They tell us - "Don't hate the player, Hate the game" - Well, Let me tell you that's exactly the Wide and Growing phenom today with the NBA.
Allow me to quote some things I just found in a Board, following the Blazer game; The title was "Is NBA FAKE?"; | Quote | | Sometimes when I watch the NBA, I get real disgusted when you watch stuff that really seems so blatantly fake. Tonight was just one of those nights.. .. But really, tonight am I the only one who saw play after play KOBE go to the line for flopping, and getting away with obvious mis-calls and a definite home court advantage?! Kobe is an incredible player no doubt, but you really have to wonder sometimes how refs give certain players special treatment. That was very evident in this game , zach gets a no call on an easy lay in, kobe gets away with a sure traveling non call, then kobe gets away with a charge, and then initiates a fore-arm to clear out his defender for a nice outside jumper. And what's up with Odem being able to enter into the blazer huddle at the time out and get so close to the balzers he looked like he wanted to kiss someone, and then whats up with a double foul ,nothing is more stupid than a no fault system. |
Well, Harsh Words. This guy expressed the whole feeling around the NBA for the last couple of years- College Draft Rule, Dress Code Rules, Behavior Code Rules, MVP not going to a player who made 81 Points in one game, Dwayne Wade winning a championship from the FT line, and the examples are Everlasting..
That, And after Watching some highlights- I realized - Thank god I didn't tune In to another Show set By the 3 Guys in Gray.
The point Is well explained; We want to see Our Old NBA back. We really do. We really do miss it David Stern.
David Stern and Rookie LaMarcus Aldridge. How About some love ON THE COURT dave?
Now, How about some -more optimistic- Blazer thoughts;
Zbo's put 30,7,6 in the last game- And at the age of 25- Seems to improve his game constantly. Hope He gets his first summer for rest this year after a long-long time (2 Year Injury, Rehab) - And gets ready for Playoffs next year.
No Playoff- Yes Draft - Maybe the balls can do some good for the Blazers this year.. Who knows, We've got a positive karma after only being 4th last year (Finished with worst Record).
The Cousin - LMA- LaMarcus Aldridge- Is getting Major Minutes - And it pays off. 24 Points, 17 Boards, 4 Blocks at the beginning of the week, and Now 17,10 At the Staples center. Way to go LaMarcus. Cya in the Rookie-Sophomore game next year.
Ime Udoke Keeps preforming - 19 (5/7 from 3 Point range),4,4 for the Best D-League Steal this year against the Lakers.
Martell Webster- The kiddo has to found his niche- 9 Points (3/4 from beyond the arc) in 15 minutes of the Bench for the 20 year old- May we see some consistancy Mr. World Wide WEBster?
All we want Is a fair Chance.
Again, Hoping for Better days at the NBA Nation, Keep it Up And Blaazze it down. Peace.
