My point is that that's not a gameplan, baiting guys into coming off of the bench. That series was decided by that incident (and Bowen), not by the Spurs' scouting/coaching/execution.

]]> <![CDATA[Free Darko On San Antonio-Phoenix]]> @Jackfruit: It's a pattern of low-down, dirty rubs at the margin. Or front-&-center, in the case of Bowen. Horry was clearly a cheap-shot artist in last year's scenario, & knew that a levelled Nash would draw the point-guard's teammates, even those on the bench, to aid. But, whoops, anti-fighting legislation -- spurred by Knicks-Heat, no less (another reason to blot that rivalry from existence) -- said no, cannot do that. &, well, Stern is such an above-board, by-the-book manager -- right, Seattle? -- that he just had to suspend not just Horry (an inessential cog in the Spurs offense, now) but Amare (the Suns offense) & Diaw. Rules are rules....

]]> <![CDATA[Free Darko On San Antonio-Phoenix]]> @Signal to Noise: The Spurs have done this how? By Horry's cheapshot that they knew would bring Diaw and Stoudamire off of the bench hence getting them the suspension?

I hope this is better than Simmons' NFL playoff-betting guide. Because that guide blows.

How do I say this ... THROWDINI!

]]> <![CDATA[Free Darko On San Antonio-Phoenix]]> it's harder to see that era as a period of rich cavorting and effortless expressionism

I think FreeDarko was the only one who saw it thusly.

]]> <![CDATA[Free Darko On San Antonio-Phoenix]]> @PQ Crash: It makes me sick to my stomach that Mark-fucking-Cuban is one of only two owners with any balls.

Mark Cuban looked right at me in a club in Scottsdale one time while following this hot piece of ass around and told me, "Someone had to be the luckiest dickhead in the world, so it might as well be me!"

That right there is the man making the most sense right now, at least among people who make a difference. That man. Scary.
