So, I was listening to Kids Place Live in the car (because, you know, that’s what I choose to listen to in the car, not because that’s what my bosses MAKE me listen to), and the Vanilla Ice song Ninja Rap comes on, and I’m like “what the fuck, Jesse James, you totally ripped your “Go New York Go New York Go” song off of this!”. I mean, he changed “ninja” to “New York” and I supposed he changed a few names like “Leonardo” to “Ewing” and “Raphael” to “Mason”, But, come on dude. Was there a rule in the early 90s that white rappers could only use the ONE two three one two three FOUR beat? Cause that sucks, and the anthem of my youth has been officially ruined…

That was a good game. It wasn’t the outcome I was hoping for, but it was a good game.

Jimmy Butler is going to be RJ’s right-of-passage NBA experience. He needs to get to the point when/where he can outplay him. I enjoyed that shove from RJ that sent Butler flying past the basket. I wonder what Jimmy was saying to RJ while they were standing together waiting for free throws. A play or two before the foul shots Jimmy had played excellent defense on one of RJ’s drives. When they were standing there together, it seemed like he was encouraging him to keep going to the rim. RJ didn’t say a thing.

Those Miami Heat uniforms are absolutely diabolical. You fade up from the bottom to the top. No one is supposed to fade from side to side. That’s just evil. It’s like some type of visual competitive edge. It’s very similar to that weird field at Boise State.

Raven:
I watched Haliburton score 12 easy points in the flow in the second quarter with a nice block and various excellent defensive plays, and turned it off before the half.

I thought Obi played relatively well today. Another year and a half and he’ll be a solid rotation player.

I don’t know. Even though he scored on the play, watching him back down Duncan Robinson didn’t leave me with a whole lot of confidence.

Thibs just called out the refs without calling out the refs. “I’ve got to see the film. I’ll leave it at that.”

Julius may give the 1st violin to DRose and backpedal a bit psychologically
He seemed like an A male that don’t really enjoy to be the A male tonight
Otoh Heat are Not an easy team to beat so let’s not overreacting…

Having a chance against them in both games was pretty cool and showed many things about this team’s mentality

I’m liking it so far!
