A TOUGH LOSS

***** YOU NEVER LIKE TO LOSE A GAME BUT THE WAY MEMPHIS LOST SUNDAY IS REALLY HARD .

A THREE POINT LEAD , POSSESSION OF THE BALL, AND ONLY 45 SECONDS TO PLAY , YOU SHOULD WIN THAT GAME .

IT CAN TEAR THE HEART OUT ON A TEAM TO LOSE ONE LIKE THAT . IN CONTROL MOST OF THE GAME WITH A 12 POINT ,LEAD, NINE AT THE START  OF THE FOURTH QUARTER .

TEAMS THAT THROW AWAY GAMES LAST ABOUT AS LONG IN THE PLAYOFFS AS DOGS THAT CHASE CARS .

WHEN THE FIRST ONE TO WIN FOUR ADVANCES , IT IS DEVASTATING TO THROW ONE AWAY .

I HOPE THE GRIZZLIES CAN BOUNCE BACK , WIN ONE IN OK-CITY , AND PLAY GREAT IN MEMPHO .

TO TELL THE TRUTH I REALLY DON'T LIKE NBA BASKETBALL . I SELDOM WATCH UNLESS THE GRIZZLIES ARE IN THE PLAYOFFS.

WHAT DO I NOT LIKE ?

FIRST OF ALL THE CONTACT . TOO MUCH PUSHING AND SHOVING . THEY LIT US UP WITH A PADDLE AT MEDINA FOR FIST FIGHTS WITH A TENTH  OF THE ACTION THATS GOES ON IN THE PAINT

THEY NEED TO DO AWAY WITH TRUNKS AND LET THEM WEAR THOSE STRING DRAWERS LIKE THE BIG WRESTLERS FROM JAPAN DO .

THEY WEAR THOSE THONGS AND TRY TO PUSH ONE ANOTHER OUT OF A CIRCLE . SOUNDS LIKE THE NBA TO ME .

HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE THE DUDE RESPONSIBLE FOR WASHING THOSE BRITCHES ? 

I SEE PLAYERS THROW HEADBANDS AND WRIST BANDS TO THE CROWD , LET'S HOPE THEY DON'T START THROWING THOSE THONGS .

SECOND, THEY TAKE ONE TO THREE EXTRA STEPS . I COULD HAVE BEEN REALLY GOOD AT MEDINA IF THEY HAD LET ME MOVE THE BALL WITHOUT HAVING TO DRIBBLE .

CAMEL MUST BE THE NBA 'S OFFICIAL CIGARETTE , BECAUSE THESE GUYS WALK A MILE EVERYTIME   DOWN THE FLOOR .

BEING EXPOSED TO THE PURE BASKETBALL PLAYED AT MEDINA ONE CAN UNDERSTAND BEING LET DOWN BY THE NBA .

A LOT OF GUYS SHOT LIKE DURANT AT MEDINA . ONLY DIFFERENCE THE BALL DIDN'T GO THROUGH THE HOOP MUCH .

UP -TEMPO GAME  ?

MY MAIN MAN J-MACK WHO IS COACHING IN HEAVEN NOW USED TO PROCLAIM "YOU KNOW BASKETBALL , ANYBODY THAT KNOWS` BASKETBALL KNOWS MEDINA HAS TO RUN TO WIN ."

J- MACK WAS UPSET WITH A NEW COACH AND SLOW - DOWN STYLE .  YOU HAD TO LET THOSE HORNETS FLY .

THE HORNETS WERE SOMETHING TO BEHOLD ON THE FAST BREAK, WITH PEERLESS POINT GUARD PISSANT PIERCEY  LEADING THE CHARGE . THINK CHRIS PAUL HERE .

WHEN PISSANT FLUNKED OUT AFTER PLAYING SIX YEARS THE FAST BREAK WAS NOT AS EXCITING . REDUCTION OF SPEED AT THE POINT TOOK SOME STING OUT OF THE FAST BREAK .

IN FACT , IN THE POST - PIERCEY YEARS THE BREAK WAS KNOW AS THE HALF -FAST BREAK .

I SURE WOULD LIKE TO GET THAT 15 CENT BROWN PAPER SACK OF POPCORN AND THAT DIME COKE AND WATCH OL PISSANT WHEEL AND DEAL ONE MORE TIME .

I LOVE YOU ALL AND THANKS FOR READING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
