In the first edition of In Case You Missed It.....

Charles Barkley calls Semih Erden "...that big Semen kid..." at :18
Hilarity ensues - EJ can't hold it together, Charles also calls Rondo "LeBrondo"

NBA Action - it's Fantastic!

Irreconcilable Differences

You can't make this stuff up: Tony Parker aka the French rapper TP was boinking Erin Barry, wife of 1996 NBA Slam Dunk Champion Brent Barry...so Brent and Eva filed for divorce from their partners citing irreconcilable differences. Ms Longoria has asked that TP keep away from her money 'cause she's richer than him. Plus his rap name is short for toilet paper - how about MC Shit-Tickets Tony?

Month 1 - State of the League Address

The ‘10-‘11 NBA season is just over 1 month old - here are my ruminations

Eat my bullet-points part deux (pause):

Landry Fields is vying for Rookie of the Year (best rookie in November) - Who woulda thunk it?
The Kanix are decent - I'm holding my breath waiting for the spoiler(s) - Let's Go Knicks!
Sith Lord Stern bought the New Orleans Hornets - if I was Dell Demps I would make all types of luxury tax trades and make the NBA pick up the tab...seriously how does this work?
Antoine Walker joins the Idaho Stampede - drops 13 points and 1 technical foul in first game back (welcome back to nowhere bro)
Blake Griffin is still Rookie of the Year (see Mozgov facerape below)
The Heat are small - but still better than every other East team not named Celtics
There's the Lakers and there's the rest of the West - fast forward to Finals
The Pacers are going to make the playoffs?! (prolly not tho)
The lockout is looming large - I want to be a scab player - where do I sign up?

NBA Players of the Month: November

Western Conference Player of the Month - November

Deron Williams - I could make fun of his hair but it wouldn't be as funny as this: Deron's Hairlines

Eastern Conference Player of Month - November

Dwight Howard - Somehow Superman is still underrated and still quite strange: "Dwight Howard wants to imbue the NBA logo with the Christian cross in an attempt to spread Christianity."
