NBA basketball


I love the NBA, especially the Jazz. Maybe I'm a loser with no friends,and nothing better to do, but almost everyday since I've been in Hawaii I thought about how I won't be able to see them on TV this year, because I don't have good ole KJAZZ in Hawaii. Then on Saturday, I made a discovery. We have some channel that pretty much just shows LA sports; UCLA, USC, Lakers, everything. And it just so happened that the Jazz played the Clippers Saturday and Monday night. Needless to say I was most pleased. I'll tell you what else I'm pleased with...the Jazz! They haven't lost yet despite playing without Deron Williams. I know it's too early too tell for sure, but Brewer, Millsap, Korver, and Kirilenko all look improved from last year, and I like Brevin Knight too(although I dunno how many minutes he'll get this year competing for second-string point with Ronnie Price). Two things I don't like though, are C.J. Miles sucking it up(they should start Harpring when he's healthy, at least he can rebound), and Fesenko looking like he doesn't even care when he's out there. Granted, he only plays if it's a blowout, so there really is nothing to play for, but come on man! He's got a freakin incredible build for the NBA, I mean a lot of size. 7'1", 290 lbs!! In fact, my favorite part of both games against the Clippers was when the announcers started talking about the size of his calves.
"Do you think those things are as big as Yao Ming's?"
"I dunno...actually, I'm still trying to figure out how to say his name. Tell you what, if he gets the ball you're taking over the play-by-play."
Hilarious stuff. Really the highest of comedy. Maybe you had to be there, but it makes me wish they played the Clippers every game- Ok every other game.
