The Best Links In All the World, In All the NBA, In All the Universe... 27 March 2009

Feels like the Suns beat the Jazz twice over the last two days. They beat us in Phoenix and then beat us again in Portland last night by getting blown out by the Blazers. Hopefully they'll be just as tired tomorrow night when they visit the ESA.

In the meantime, break out your checkbooks as we hit the link:

From Fleur de Lis, Masha Kirilenko's store. You have to be making AK's money to afford this. I'm glad I've never gone in the store. I would have to do the spin of shame and walk right back out when I saw the prices. But there's something relatively reasonable for the KK fans.

That short story really sucked.

Does the author really think that he just dissed Deron Williams with that crap?

If he's referencing something

it went miles above my head.

no, see

it’s funny, because Deron is a totally bland player, and things like no-look passes, ankle-breaking crossovers, assists where you do more than lob the ball towards the rim and hope your big man slams it, a higher shooting percentage, and (most importantly) ACTUALLY WINNING GAMES are the stuff of Chris Paul’s nightmares. That’s why it’s funny.

Uh, do you think you could draw me like a ninja?

Seriously. You can argue that Paul is better than Deron in a lot of ways, but excitement isn't a good one.

Chris Paul is fantastic and does a lot of exciting stuff, but most of his moves are dribbling around and through defenses really fast. In fact I have been watching Hornets games in order to compare his game to Deron’s and just see what he does and the guy has the ball in his hands for like 18 seconds every possession. Anyways, his best play is to pass it to West for a 20 foot jumper or lob it to Chandler off the pick and roll for a dunk. Nothing really that exciting, although effective.

And whoever said listening to Coldplay made you boring, or lifting the same barbels? Nice spelling by the way. I think this short story was entered into a 5th grade writing contest.

The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
