Good Afternoon....
All you have to know is Lebron James scored 8 points last night, zero in the 4th quarter....Miami should have won this in four straight....But like a punch drunk boxer the Mavs hang on and even the series....Jason Terry steps up and takes some of the pressure off an ailing Dirk Nowitzki....The Heat have no excuse....As Magic Johnson said, James must bring his "A" game next time out....If he plays Game 5 like the best player in the game that he is, Miami should pull away....Dallas doesn't quit and if Miami only shows up for 3 1/2 quarters again, anything can and will happen.
Just when David Ortiz made it back on my Christmas card list he goes and pulls a stunt like last night....After hitting a home run in the fifth inning last night he flipped his bat towards the Yankee dugout and spun around before his trot around the bases....He doesn't think its a big deal....It was bush league at best and if he doesn't get drilled tonight I'll be wondering what kind of manager is Joe Giradi....At one time "Big Papi" was a big crybaby....The Red Sox went to him in the off season and told him they would do him a favor and pick up his option for $12M...If he insisted on a 2 year deal the Sox were more than willing to let him check out the market and there was no way he was getting close to $12M....Boston told him to shut his mouth, take the money and play for a new contract....To his credit he has said and done all the right things....He's played his way onto the all-star team....Then there is last night's incident....Just admit you were wrong and listen up for the chin music.
Boston Garden should be crazy this evening....The fans know they are the 7th player and the team feeds off its energy....No, I'm not a Claude Julien fan....Take the kid gloves off Tyler Seguin and let him go out and play hockey....He'll more than make up for any mistakes he has....The kid produces points and the Bruins need his speed and scoring touch, especially on the power play....But what do I know?
What did Bobby Knight have to say after his 1980 Olympic team played China?....
"It was fun playing the Chinese, but after an hour, we wanted to play them again." ....talk to ya
