i actually think it is time to press the panic button on the Mavs. Not because they've lost a few games, but because they've turned into the dynasty Lakers of a few years ago: they play hard for the big games, and dog it in the small ones. No fan wants to see that.

Could someone please explain to me why Billups is #6 in the All-Star balloting (other than the fact that the average NBA fan still thinks that Vince Carter is the ballz).

I will now be calling Rondo 'Blue Rondo A La Turk', becasue he's a big Dave Brubeck fan, and I'm a nerd.

Brandon Boy so crazy he popped on adult diapers and drove 900 miles to confront a romantic rival.

@Bruschis Brewsky: It should be illegal that Big Shot Bob and Mr. Big Shot are, in fact, separate nicknames. Can't we just combine the two? Mr. Big Shot Bauncy Horrups... (I need a vacation.)

@GreatOdensRaven: The same annoying DJ who came up with "Deeee-Troit Basketball" came up with "Chauncy B-B-B-Billups" for pregame warmups.

He's annoying, but he did give us the unintentional comedy of our Governor, Jenny from the block, saying "Deetroit Basketball", which is so unintentionally funny, I'm blown away.

Lebron drops 32, next highest Cav has 11, and they fall to David Lee and the Knicks.

@chilltown: He didn't exactly "flame out" of LSU--he won SEC Player of the Year before he declared. He just was stuck at the end of the bench with the Hornets before signing with Dallas.
