GET A REBOUND! NBA Finals and MORE

So today I'm going to give you a little rant about everyone's favorite celebutante, Paris Hilton.

Just kidding, that would be lame, because who gives a crap about useless mongoloids like her?

Let's talk about some real stuff, baby.

- First off, let me take a moment to say Happy Birthday to my brother Matt. Matt is 21 today, menaing that, according to Jewish law, he's been a man for eight years. According to Baram law though, I'm the Man, and since there can only be one Man, what, exactly, would that make Matt? My brother is currently living it up in NYC, which means that he was once again the recipient of our annual long-distance birthday phone calls, in which one of leaves a birthday voicemail for the other that amounts to crazed rantings of Ric Flair-inspired one-upsmanship, random songs, and lots of brotherly birthday trash-talking.

- On the NBA Finals: Man, this is going to be an uphill battle for the Cavs. The Spurs, as boring and lame as they are (sorry, Fowzia), are a total machine, and right now they look to have the Cav's number. I'm sure Lebron felt all strange inside when he drove to the basket only to be soundly rejected by Time Duncan, and that's a scenario that will happen more than once if some of the other Cavs don't step up, put some pressure on Duncan, and create some offensive threats from the post and the three point line. For the Cavs to win, either Lebron has to explode for another dominant game, or people like Ilgauskas (sp?), Gibson, Gooden, etc need to step up bigtime and have the games of their lives. Last night, neither happened, and Cleveland never really looked like they had a chance in the second half. Also - Cleveland has got to create some better offense that involves something more than hoping Lebron will bail them out of a play with 5 seconds left on the shot clock. They are way too stagnant and clumsy on the offensive end, whereas the Spurs are a well-oiled machine.

- I will likely be in CT and / or NYC the first week of July, if anyone is around.

- Check out yesterday's post for a review of the sleeper comedy of the summer -- Eagle vs. Shark!

- Aaaaaaaaaaaand ... I'm outta here. Short entry today, I know, but it's Friday and I'm hoping to be outta here soon. PEACE.
