warriors, don't retreat! this is for bay a-reaaaaaaaaa!
pssst; notice how similar this is to how davis used to throw them down as a hornet
except now instead of pulling off a headband, he lifts his jersey, LOL

it's actually been a while since i've said something long and deep on my website, huh?
not having your laptop constantly connected to the internet can do that to you.
these days, seems like i'm more content to just go "here's a youtube video of a guy getting kicked in the crotch."
or talk about sports.
meh; i'll think of something deep to say soon.

pistons just too good for the bulls...
(i'm holding my breath that dee-troit basketball's teammates don't get overconfident until they either end up with the trophy or get knocked out and have to go fishing)
---
btw, this seems like time-for-espn-dot-com-to-get-nearly-every
-pre-playoff-matchup-outcome-wrong-year...
case in point:
1) warriors and mavericks 2)bulls and heat 3) bulls and pistons 4) jazz and rockets...

my nephew michael turned 3 yesterday....
my mom, errr, turned ?? today... i think i'll just leave the information blank, half because i don't know off the top of my head, half out of respect(my mom doesn't like thinking that she's old). i'll just say my mom isn't much younger than my dad.
i'm the odd bunch out of my immediate family:
dad - born in march
michelle - born in march
allison - born in march
phil - born in april
mom - born in may
michael - born in may
me? i'm waaaay out in november.

i forgot just how awesome the masterpiece called "street fighter - the movie" was. i'm sure if you liked commando, this will suit you just fine as well.
ima kick that sonofab****'s a** SO HORD
haha bison's scared now!

fan-fic-based shockwave flash movies by proxicide - mortal kombat vs street fighter series:
mk vs sf 1 - raiden vs ken
mk vs sf 2 - scorpion vs ryu
mk vs sf 3 - khameleon vs akuma
i must say, his storyline's a bit off and stuff, but really, nobody's really watching this for the storyline(akuma must be gay for ryu). really cool fight sequences. he just released the 3rd one yesterday. my only gripes are the gayness, and akuma pulling out iron man's proton cannon. he cuts down on the matrix-y stuff from the 1st two though.

ever wondered what "street fighter" the cartoon was like?
i'm glad i never had cable to watch this crap. i seriously can't stop laughing.

i like the jazz more than the rockets(and you could actually make a case that the new jazz are one of the few teams i really like in the western conference other than the warriors); i love carlos boozer, ak, and okur. that being said, gsw would rather face the rockets than the jazz. for reason that the rockets are less of a 1-2 punch than a 1.5 punch.
but it's not just that; jazz's home crowd is ridiculously solid. that, they just won a game 7(showing they can win on the road), and the fact that jazz's frontcourt is a rebounding machine, means golden state must make sure their 3s must go into the hoop on the 1st try; there'll be no second chance points against the jazz. so golden state must play a lot more sound on offense, which will be hard, since golden state really likes jacking up shots which aren't fundamentally sound. did i mention how ak anchors the defense and boozer is a huge low post threat, 2 things that don't bode well for the warriors.
i'll believe that warriors can advance if they can hang tough(not necessarily win one on the road on one of the 1st two games, but stay close and not get blown out at all) in the 1st two away games.
(btw i don't consider myself a rockets follower, but i feel for t-mac. he truly did all he could to try to win game 7)

granted, i found this on a spurs message board, but some people are really creative with .gifs and images; hope you have a lol of a time(byron should forward this webpage to maria):
official Dallas got owned pics/gifs thread
i love the "beating a caveman - so easy golden state can do it"
and the "objects in mirror are losing"

it's been so long since i've played video game basketball.
nba 07 the life was on display at fry's and seeing a dearth of people there after practicing drums, i thought i'd give it a try. it was only for sampling, so i was forced to play either as the mavs or the heat, nobody else, and only 1 quarter and then maybe 1 minute.
still, if i play any team that has a dominant big man, usually i do well. i decided to go with miami(why use the mavs? gsw just worked the mavs), and i didn't even bother giving the ball to dwyane wade; just tried to create an open passing lane towards shaq, gave him the ball in deep, and then let him bang, and dunk(almost all of the new future-gen nba games' features are gravy, but i really appreciate being able to bang, as well as set screens; in high school those two things in sega's nba 2k helped me understand how important big man play was, how you could create shots almost at will with a dominant big man or free up a fast guard). he scored maybe 90% of the shots i attempted for the heat. i was still getting used to the controls, and probably never really got the hang of it(especially being able to call for screens), otherwise i would've tried dwyane wade. i'm still too used to the nba 2k series in general; i didn't like how "no look pass" was the same button as "block shot." or that "dunk" was the same as "steal." wasn't bad though, the game that is; i might be in the minority who likes the ps3.
btw, i find it ironic that gilbert is the new cover man for ea's next nba live game. i thought he hated ea's nba live in preference for nba 2k series; i do too.
(side fact; arenas is actually 1/2 cuban; not mark cuban LOL)

since the warriors are powered by baron, i'd thought i'd link to 2 videos of his; when he was a hornet, of course; that was when he was consistently beating 3 guys on the way to the basket before postering a center:
this one's by yinka dare
(this video highlights baron as a streetballer more)
this one's by shai91cz
(the drive and poster he did on the pistons was nasty at 3:03; beats both ben wallace and tayshaun prince on the way to the basket, and the one on jermaine o'neal is infamous)
7 min video of baron(warrior mix)
there was one i saw maybe 1-2 years back on youtube featuring him solely as hornet, which had dmx - we in here as the bgm; that was probably my favorite one i've seen of baron, but i couldn't find it anymore; mustve taken it down.

pink floyd - dark side of the moon
jimi hendrix - are you experienced
led zeppelin - zoso
if you're not big on internet purchasing, all these albums are 9.99 at target for about a month or so. i also forgot to mention some album of carlos santana is also on sale at target, another really good rock guitarist, a bit more modern than the other three.
these are all really good classic rock albums. though you may not know the titles, i'm very sure many of the songs on these albums might've been in your heads at some point, you just can't remember them(if you remember watching wayne's world, i'd say 2-3 of jimi hendrix's songs are on it). given how i grew up on influences from phil, listening to 92.3 FM when young, i've heard a LOT of classic, hard rock when i was young. can't speak for all of the albums, but jimi hendrix is considered by some to be the best rock guitarist of all time. there were at least 5 oft-played songs on that album alone that still circulate classic rock stations, a testament to how good he was. he would also as a sideshow, play the electric guitar with his teeth during concerts. yes, you read that right; his TEETH. my brother has a poster of jimi hendrix doing just that in his room. he also has a poster showcasing the cover of pink floyd's album in his room. in fact, everytime i go into phil's bedroom, it's like a trip down memory lane; filled with rock posters and sports posters. there is almost no space in his room that is bare wall. none.
and led zeppelin's "stairway to heaven" is probably one of the most famous classic rock tunes of all time.

wow, i'm surprised shawn marion got no defensive team love. considering how well he can guard off his position, you'd think he's get some type of recognition; suns may not play THE best defense in the league, but everybody knows you can't win games and championships without defense and rebounding, both of which marion provides. i'm also mildly surprised, yet happy that coaches have finally recognized how good defensively raja bell is.
still happy that tayshaun made it onto the list for the 3rd time, ben wallace is STILL a mainstay, and that kirk hinrich cracked it for the 1st time. also great for marcus camby to finally get the award.
the official list
1st team:
tim duncan
bruce bowen
marcus camby(dpoy)
kobe bryant
raja bell
2nd team:
ben wallace
kirk hinrich
jason kidd
tayshaun prince
kevin garnett

i love the fact that bulls are now facing the pistons in the playoffs; both teams are almost mirror-images, and both play "the right way;" no superstars, hard defense, unselfish basketball. it's gonna be a great series. plus, both have really great small forwards; luol deng and tayshaun prince. i remember telling jerm that i wanted the bulls to face the pistons for the eastern conference championship this year, and he asked me which team i would've wanted to win; my response was "oooh, i don't really know." my opinion still stands; i want the pistons to win slightly more because i like chauncey billups and tayshaun prince a lot, but how i can hate the defensive combination of tyrus thomas and ben wallace? or the forwards deng and noccioni? or the fact that hindrich probably plays better defense than any other white guy in the nba(kidd doesn't count). nevermind my respect for scott skiles as an nba coach.
go warriors...
audioslave - show me how to live
incubus - pardon me
dennis rodman mix
(if i'm not mistaken the artist bgm is pearl jam - do the evolution; unlike every other modern-day black nba player who likes hip-hop, dennis rodman is a BIG fan of pearl jam)
