Oh shit (part 8)

In the early stages of what would turn into a Heat route of the Reggie Evans-led Brooklyn Nets (0 points, 6 rebounds for the man with the big mouth), Joe Johnson left Bosh tumbling like a drunk idiot into Haslem with a sick crossover. 



Nasty, and he made the shot!  Bosh isn't someone who should be guarding a quick wing player like Iso Joe, but he shouldn't get so embarrassed either.  That looks like what would happen if I were guarding him, not an 8-time All Star.  So let's break this down: Crossover to Bosh tripping over himself, made shot, against an inferior defender for the position, AND the Heat wiped the floor with the Nets (making the bench shit-talking all the better).  Getting 3/5 Paul Pierces here.  Nice work, Joe. 

Bron being Bron

Last night, as the Heat were busy routing the Pistons, a lucky fan had the chance to take a heave from halfcourt for 75 large.  If you're like me, you probably figured that guy didn't have much of a chance.  After he absolutely drained the shot (with somewhat unorthodox form), BronBron ran out of the team huddle to bear hug and tackle him.  Is Bron a douche?  Maybe.  But he seems like he's genuinely a pretty nice dude, and that's just a cool moment.  That was the best moment of that guys life, 100%.

Oh shit (part 7)

I really don't want to over-use this Paul Pierce wheelchair scale, but if dudes are going to be falling down left and right all season, well, my hands are tied. 

Which takes us to our nations capital, where John Wall has FINALLY been able to start playing.  Great to see him out there and I hope he can get back on track to being one of the best young guards in the League.  He looked pretty great while sending Ish Smith (Ish?  Seriously?) all over the place with a left-handed behind the back dribble.




Left hand, behind the back, defender falling, successful basket, John Wall returning AND a thorough Wizards win?!  This baby is getting the coveted 5 OUT OF 5 PAUL PIERCES.  Congrats Wall, we'll all do a dougie in your honor

 

 

 

UPDATE:  As it turns out, John Wall's crossup was an act of revenge!  Earlier in the game, Ish straight up jumped over John Wall going for a block.  He missed, but he turned around and got his:
 



As previously noted, Wall ended up with the last laugh.

Oh shit (Part 3)

While avenging an embarassing loss to the Pistons from November, yaboi Jrue Holiday took the time to fold Brandom Knight in half (possibly assisted by Hawes) and drain the J.  Nice exclamation point to the win.  These are the games the 123456ers have to win if they want any hope of a playoff spot sans Frederick Douglass. 

While we're here, go take a minute and vote Jrue to the All-Star team.  Putting up 18-9-4 (Third, behind only Rondo and CP3 in assists!) and keeping the hopes of Philadelphia alive.
