I like Lebron pointing at Jalen Rose and Magic talking about being poor and black.. "you know what I'm talking about.. you know what I'm talking about."


That was funny as hell. Also, Spoelstra's reaction to Chris Bosh's game in his presser.

Eh.. Wilbon was bumped for LeBron. They just wanted Wade to sit on the other side of the set.

All for show. Simmons entire image is built off him being a "rebel."

He's a company man. Bleeds ESPN deep.

I know he was upset and tweeted about the absence of Wade/Germany comment that was omitted in the rebroadcast

What?

“Visiting Germany” isn’t a euphemism for sex in one of San Antonio’s less-historic districts. It’s something Simmons has been joking about since some of his favorite players (Kobe Bryant and Alex Rodriguez most prominently) went to Germany to get an experimental procedure done that gave them a little “boost.”

If you haven’t connected the dots by now, when someone visits Germany for medical treatment, they are probably getting some advanced theraP-E-D that professional sports leagues have no idea how to test for.

Immediately after the Heat beat the Spurs, Simmons joked on ESPN about Wade visiting Germany before his turn-back-the-clock, 32-point, 6 rebound, 4 assists, 6 steal, 1 block performance. Since that is basically a PED accusation without actually uttering those dirty little words, ESPN edited the joke from a replay of SportsCenter

I don't mind Jalen, but Magic is terrible.


I like Magic and think he's a good guy, but I agree that he isn't the best commentator. I feel like they brought him in just because his name brings credibility.

I also like Michael Wilbon, but I don't see what he brings to the table on NBA countdown. He doesn't say anything outright retrded, but he also doesn't say anything insightful.
