New York New York

What's up world I have been watching the playoffs this weekend but it has been bittersweet. My hometown Knicks aren't playing and the way that stuff is going we won't be in the playoffs for a while. Coaching in the NBA is crazy I see coach's leave team after team but nobody questions their loyalty and committment. As they talk about the candidates for the Knicks head coaching job they bring up Jeff Van Gundy. He is a quitter. He quit on the Knicks when he was last here so I don't know why they wpild be even considering him for another job. It is my personal opinion that either Patrick Ewing or Mark Jackson should be given the job. Ewing has been an assistant coach for quite some time since he retired but he has worked with two of the most dominant big men in the league, Yao Ming and Dwight Howard. After working with Patrick Ewing both Yao and Dwight have put up numbers better than previous years. It goes to show that he can devevlop players especially big men. He would be the teacher that Eddie Curry needs to make him an All Star. Mark Jackson doesn't have any experience but he is eager and has the desire to make his hometown team a winner. But the way things are going they won't give them the job but they'll give it to a high priced name who won't win. What can you expect from a Presid3nt of Basketball who hasn't won anything ever in Donnie Walsh

NCAA CHAMPIONSHIP GAME

All Memphis had to do was hold the damn ball and make their freakin free throws. But no they couldn't do that. They have to be one of the dumbest basketball IQ teams in the world. I am really upset because I lost the office pool I could have won by default if Memphis would have beaten Kansas. Damn they blew a 9 point lead with 2 minutes left. Eww I hate them right now lol

NCAA FINAL FOUR

I am sitting here pissed as hell. UCLA has cost me $300 dollars in my basketball pool at work. I picked UCLA because they play outstanding defense and are one of the best teams overall in college basketball. I should have known better out of all the teams in the Final Four UCLA is the only team without a player from New Yorker or New Jersey. North Carolina has one, Memphis has one, and Kansas had two. Damn I forgot one of my rules when picking teams in the NCAA tournament, always go for the team with players from the TriState area. It's not that we are the best players in the world we just play sports harder than other States. For many sports is their ticket out of the projects and the ghetto. They are not going to let you take food out of their mouth. They bring that bully mentality to sports and you can't get no better than that.
