NBA Toons: Sibling Rivalry + Rare Recaps December 16, 2006
Posted by TheHype in Houston Rockets, Memphis Grizzlies, NBA TOONS, Phoenix Suns, Toronto Raptors, Washington Wizards , trackback |
Great way to start a Saturday huh, with just a smidget of cartoon-y violence. I don’t get “The Wire” up here, but I imagine that’s exactly how things would’ve gone down.
The New/Old Ball-pocalypse may or not really be a done deal, so that leaves us with another anti-climatic cliffhanger until the full resolution comes next season. Get new writers Stern! But hopefully the above installment will be the last ep in the string of | various | appearances | around here. |
Of course, it’s no Orange Roundie..
The Allen Iverson Purgatory Watch: Day 9, but it feels like Year 9. T-Dot scrambled the phone lines to tell the world they have 3 Mil to throw into this clusterfu rotisserie of a trade.
Suns extend their winning streak to number One-Three! They’re so hot right now, Jack McCallum’s book is spontaneously combusting in bookstores everywhere!
Yao Ming brought out the Peking Duck, called his friends
(NOT inviting McGrady though, understandable) for a Block Party! He got a career high 8 blocks with 6 of them in the first half alone. Not wanting to be outdone, Dikembe Mutombo remembered, “oh shit, I can do that too!” and added 3 of his own. Per usual, Deke waved his finger, injuring 12 courtside attendees, 3 in critical condition.
Then the Rockets blew a 21 pt lead but Yao’s 8th block (well, goaltend) was crucial since they were down 2 with sixty on the crickety. OT: Kobe vs. Yao, both had chance to shoot to win. Draw. DoubleOT: Rockets missed everything, Kobe made everything. Lakers win. Kobe 53-10-8. Yao’s 35-15-4 and the aforementioned 8 blocks looks so, so sad.
However, Ben Wallace scoffs at both those un-American chumps by Kirby-ing his career high 27 boards. That’s just one shy of the entire Bucks’ defensive rebounds. Twenty effin’ Seven!
Pau Gasol played last night for the first time since the summer. Stat line: 4pts in 17mins… and they lost. Grizzlies: no no no no no! You want to tank the season AND save your franchise guy, c’mon! Greg Oden is rolling in his grave.
And the Wizards finally beat the Heat after 3 and half years of being hexed. Or sucked. Possibly both.
Related: hot damn, a one of a kind magical blogger is reveales(!!!!) I gotta say that’s a sharp looking dude (no Rod Strickland homo) to go with the genius mind that came up with Wizznutzz.
Quick thought, they should start a site called GrizzNutzz… ehh? ehh? Okay, maybe not.
Btw, me done with them exam thinys. Huzzah!
Try to explain the West...

Great site you have here. I really like the cartoons.
BTW: Did anybody see the Knicks-Nuggets brawl tonight?
How long do you think Carmelo will get suspended?
Hype- are we going to see an illustrated version of the MSG fight?
what the, who the?? DAMN it! I was watching that game until like 6 mins left and then I went to bed!!!! Booooo!! someone show me hilites ASAP!
–ook, i just went to watch the highlights.. hah, I just love how NBATV’s highlight isn’t even pretending like they’re not capable of showing the brawl. Here’s one instance ESPN’s site had the goods.
WOW.. what was up with Melo?? Oh man, I need like another 2 hours to digest this, my mind’s too blown for any justifiable doodle (heh, not promisin’ anything..)
