What it is, y’all? As of today, I have not posted a single blog in TWO WEEKS! Last update was on February 4th. After that, I completely fell off the face of the earth. My apologies. But, I’m back… for now! Hopefully for good. Got to keep posting and make it my commitment.
My previous posts were all about sports. Funny thing is, I didn’t intend to cover as much sports as I have been but I can’t help it because I love basketball and baseball. And wrestling if you can even considered that a “sport.” My intentions were to make this blog a mixture of sports and movies. As you can see, I have been doing more sports than movie reviews. I need to get back on that movie tip. There are a lot of movies out there that I want to review. I just need to figure out when to do it.
I was going to post my thoughts on when the Boston Celtics defeated the Miami Heat and when the Celtics lost to the L.A. Lakers, but couldn’t because I couldn’t even watch them because of work. THAT mad me sad. Literally. I only caught some of both games. There’s still A LOT left of basketball to be played/watched. And baseball season is about to start! So, stay tuned.
So today is the start of NBA All-Star weekend. I plan to cover ALL the televised events. This would be my make up to you for disappearing so long.
Stay tuned... I will update as the night goes on with my 10 Thoughts. Follow me on Twitter @deeeecue. I'm still fairly new to it. :)
10 Thoughts
1) Justin Bieber. WTF. This kid is everywhere. He does not need to go anywhere near a basketball. For shame.
2) Scottie Pippen looks exactly the same as he did 15 years ago. The man does not age like Ray Allen.
3) Michael Rapaport = Brian Scalabrine’s dad?

YOU TELL ME? |
4) I noticed the clock kept going on inbound passes and when they were shooting free throws. Time constraints or to fasten the game? Probably the second choice. I don’t blame them. I wouldn’t want to watch this for more than an hour and a half.
5) Common can ball. After all, he did do that basketball movie.
6) I wonder if they hand out technical fouls for these games if players have legitimate beefs on calls?
7) Totally forgot Romeo’s dad is Master P. Totally forgot Master P even existed.
8) How did Nick Cannon marry Mariah Carey? Something about that sentence just doesn’t seem right.
9) I didn’t know the Kardashian’s had a brother. And why is his name “Rob” and not a name beginning with a “K”?
10) I normally never do texting for television things but I texted for Scottie Pippen to win M.V.P. HOW and WHY Justin Bieber won it is a SHAM. Text = wasted.

NO HOMO, BRO |
1) Blake Griffin is the real deal. This guy is showing the kind of potential Greg Oden was supposed to. He could very well be on that “LeBron James” level of superstardom.
2) Landry Fields. Surprise, surprise. Don’t sleep on him. Bright spot in New York. Can’t believe I praised New York.
3) I don’t need anyone teaching me how to “Dougie.”
4) What it do, baby? It’s the Iceman John Wall. WAIT A MINUTE…
5) Why are they playing under college basketball halves, each 20 minutes long?
6) Does Kevin McHale age, either?
7) Why on earth were so many players wearing yellow sneakers? I felt like I was watching an NBA Jam game where they kept using the turbo button and their shoes changed colors.
8) Where does Craig Sager get his suits?
9) No Avery Bradley, Semih Erden, or Luke Harangody. No green. :(
10) This game consisted of alley-oops, three-pointers, and no defense.
1) Why are most female basketball players so butch looking?
2) Once Chris Paul missed that first lay-up, I knew he was going to be eliminated. He was my pick to win.
3) Rajon Rondo should’ve done the Skills Challenge. He’d do well in it. Except for the jump shooting part.
4) I see you driving ‘round town with the girl I love and I’m like, F**k you!
5) Ray Allen is a monster behind the arc. Paul Pierce certainly gave him a run for the money. But, who would’ve thought a Miami Heat player would beat BOTH Celtics in the finals?! I picked Ray Allen for the win.
6) THERE’S A WORLD OUT THERE THAT WE SHOULD SEEEEE.
7) Reggie Miller: “You win the crowd, you win your freedom.”
8) Serge Ibaka BEHIND the free throw line? How did that NOT get a perfect 50? Injustice. Blake Griffin is still a beast, too.
9) Why are the sneakers the players wearing getting even more colorful?
10) Dunk contest was pretty creative this year. I think everyone’s expectation is for them to make it on their FIRST try. When they don’t, the fans start to lose excitement and can pretty much expect what to happen. Won’t “wow” them as much. Have you heard? BLAKE GRIFFIN IS A FUGGING BEAST. 'Nuff said.

This should be illegal |
1) Boston was well represented. As well as they should be. Would’ve liked to see them play a little more but it was good for what it was. Certainly understood it is more important for the team in the second half instead of this one game. BE GREEN!

| Or blue, for now |
2) Not a fan of Rihanna at all. I am a new fan of her legs, though. Kanye West’s pants seem to get tighter and tighter every time I see him.
3) Joe Johnson chucks a lot of three’s. I mean A LOT.
4) I do not approve of the NBA Jam sneakers. Too bright.
5) Notice how all the old timers (Tim Duncan, Dirk Nowitzki, Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Ray Allen) played little minutes but Kobe Bryant logged in almost 30 minutes of playing time? And he said it was all about the “young guys?” Whatever, Kobe, whatever.
6) I like how the game didn’t feel simulated and there were some actual competition. Of course, there is always going to be a few tricks to please the fans, but, for the most part, it was kept to a minimum. I approve.
7) Maria Menounos is cool. She is cool. She’s gorgeous, as well. But you, you already knew that.

| I like |
8) They should make the All-Star game have some sort of importance or goal that can come out of it. Kind of like MLB’s All-Star game. Yeah, it’s for show. But, make some meaning to it.
9) Dwyane Wade has been rolling his ankle quite a lot. Can’t help but feel “bad” for the guy. Right.
10) Kobe Bryant named All-Star M.V.P. Not really surprised but there were some pretty good runner-ups like LeBron James’ triple double and Kevin Durant’s quiet 34 points. Entertaining All-Star weekend to say the least.
