Where to start! I feel like I was on a roller coaster ride last night, a ride where the cars came overturned just as the ride was over and safety bar was released.
Game 4 of the Jazz-Spurs Series was playing right into the Jazz's hands and out of no where reality struck. How obvious it was that the Jazz are due for a nice pat on the head once Wednesday night's game is over. Deron Williams continued to produce well and without the interference of poor officiating, would have guided the Jazz on to their second win of the series, more on this in a minute. Duncan was playing like HE was the one with the stomach flu, and it looks like the Jazz are really starting to figure him out. How Timmah' recovers will be a key to the rest of the series.
The world just added two more people to my "People I Want to Throw Carmex At" so far my list includes:
Dick Bavetta. Before you knew him for his distance running, he was ruining the Jazz's best shot at a title with a six point swing that should have gone the Jazz's way. I could write a whole blog on this push off that somehow the NBA's then number one ref missed.
New additions:
Manu Ginobili. Vlade Divac brought the flop to the USA, but Ginobili has given it the charm of a blaring car alarm. Following the non traditional route of entering the NBA straight off the roster of "Days of Our Lives", this argentine import has endeared himself to all five of the San Antonio fans. Comissioner Stern, feel confident that those five will have their televisions tuned to every minute of the NBA finals (and they are faithfully driving their Mercury's to go pick up some Bacardi while their favorite Pussycat Dolls CD is playing). Stern, I think you're losing us...
Steve Javie. I'm pretty sure that my wish was already granted last night with this guy. I imagine that any actual carmax that actually smeared on his head went unnoticed on his perfectly coifed 'do. An inspiration to cripples everywhere (Stevie was born with a condition that kept his arms stuck in a "T" shape). Apparently Javie wasn't enjoying the altitude, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Music or the fact that the Delta Center had been renamed the Energy Solutions Arena. That short fuse was on display by singlehandedly turning a winnable game for the Jazz into a "T" party. (ha ha, get it, like a tea party...)
...but I digress.
