Delonte West's Tough Breaks Keep Coming

 Delonte West suffered a compound fracture of his right wrist while going for a layup against the Nets. The Celtics' guard was playing his fifth game of the season after serving a ten game league suspension for pleading guilty to gun charges.
 "It's broken for sure," said Celtics' coach Doc Rivers. "We don't know anything more than that. It's a compound fracture, most likely. It's going to be a long time, let's just put it that way."
 "It's tough mentally to deal with injury," said Paul Pierce. "I can't imagine how he feels right now. I know he's frustrated because he's had a long road to getting back on the court, and for him to be sitting again, it's going to be tough on him. It's up to the players to keep him involved mentally, make him still feel like a part of the team. I think that's the most important things when guys get hurt."
 "He must be so frustrated," Coach Rivers said. "I can't even imagine. I can't speak to it. It's like nothing I've ever gone through. It must be extremely frustrating."
 "It's tragic for Delonte," said Celtics' GM Danny Ainge. "Basketball is a very important part of his life. I hate to see this happen. But Delonte will be able to return late in the season to help us."

Celtics' Locker Room Madness

 Over the last couple years, the Cavs put on one of the more entertaining extracurricular shows in the NBA. LeBron dancing his little boogie during blowouts, his teammates pretending that they were posing for photos during player intros and all of them loving all over each other until they were bounced by better teams in the playoffs. The Cleveland party got busted when LeBron dumped Mo Williams and company for his real friends Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh.
 This year, the Celtics are taking over as the fun bunch of the NBA and they are way better at it. They have Nate "KryptoNate" Robinson back with his buddy Glen "Big Baby" "Shrek" Davis. They have one of the best talkers in all of basketball, Kevin Garnett. They've added they rhyming genius of Delonte "Red" West. And to top it all off, they have the king of bug out in this era of the NBA, Shaquille "Big Aristotle" "Big Shaqtus" "Big Green Monstah" O'Neal. 
 Last week, 5'7" Nate Robinson ran suicides in Shaq's size 22 shoes before playing 1 on 1 against Delonte West in those same oversized boats. 
 This week's video is even better. A bugged out locker room dance party featuring a masked Kevin Garnett, the shirtless blubber of Big Baby and cameraman Paul Pierce hyping them up.
 It's alright to be amped about the Miami Heat's upcoming onslaught of offensive mayhem, but don't sleep on the Celtics because the party in Boston might be more fun that the one in South Beach.

Top 10 Reasons Why Paul Pierce Shouldn't Have Opted Out

10. Pierce played more like a veteran's exception than a max contract guy under the pressure of LeBron & Artests's defense during the playoffs. 
9. In 2005, Latrell Sprewell turned down $21 million over 3 years on his way out of the league. Pierce is turning down even more for 1 season while he's arguably not even in the top 2 players on the Celtics.
8. He was due to make $21.5 million next year as the 2nd highest paid player in the league. Who will want to pay him more?
7. The Celtics already have to re-sign or replace Ray Allen, Tony Allen & Nate Robinson. With Rasheed threatening retirement, why give the Celtics more on their plate this summer?
6. His contract goal is a 4 year deal between $93-96 million. Only desperate fools would pay him that much money- like maybe the Knicks after they miss out on the big free agent fish.
5. Imagine the embarrassment if the Celtics re-sign Scalabrine & let Pierce go.
4. Ex-Celtic Antoine Walker is bankrupt. Recession is in the air. It's not exactly a good time to walk away from $21 million.
3. The "Big 3" have 1 championship to show for all the hype. Unfinished business? Check.
2. What if LeBron swoops in and signs with the Celtics, snatching up Pierce's money and position? OK, unlikely, but still-
1. A bigger contract will eat into any team's wheelchair budget.

Celtics Lakers Game 6 con Mojo

Kobe: Queensbitch, Gasoft & One Leg Bynum ain't hittin' nobody out here so I guess I gotta score all the points and put the hammer on punk ass Pierce.
Pierce: Yo you just gone drop me all up in the scuff marks my dude? My wheelchair can't roll thru the all the cracks.
Kobe: I gotta remember everything now? Why should I care where it's good for you to fall, Wheelchair Boy?
KG: Cuz black giant Leprechauns kill mambas! Now watch where I show you to put Paul next time.
Kobe: Yuck! I'd rather be in a Colorado courtroom than sit with Celtic fans.
Pierce: Oh yes, thanks Kobe. This is more like it. With the right soft landing on her, I won't even need a wheelchair. I gotta remember to thank KG for this.
KG: Don't even worry about it PP. I got you.
Pierce: Ugh, uncomfortable. That ain't what I had in mind KG.
KG: Yo little man, lemme try this new kung fu on you real quick.
Allen: Yo you aight man?
Rondo: Yeah it wasn't as bad as Big Baby droolin' all over everybody.
KG: Yo Rondo. See, that shit worked right?
Odom: What the f-? Yo, this ain't hump ball. It's jump ball!
Morrison: Yeah Lamar! Thanks dude!! I need all the help I can get to get me another ring.
"Can a donkey get a table dance?"
Wade: How many rings do I have, son?
Kid: One, Dad.
Wade: And how many does LeBron have?
Kid: None, Dad.
Wade: Who should Larry King have interviewed?
Kid: You, Dad.
Wade: Exactly.

Boston's Big Drooling Baby & KryptoNate

Heart transplant brings Pierce back to life.
Little Nate & Big Baby step up to take a load off Pierce.
Nate backs down to no one, not even Ron Ron & Black Mamba.
He gives his body up with no fear,
and maintains the intensity of an NFL special teams player
while Big Baby drools in celebration of his own outstanding hustle plays.
In game 4, coach Doc Rivers rode the successful play of his bench until deep in the 4th quarter.
Big Baby had 18 points, 5 boards & 2 steals in 22 minutes.
Nate had 12 points, 2 assists & a steal in 16 minutes.
Both played like all-stars and got extra minutes in the 4th because of their outstanding play.
Quotes from Baby on Game 4:
This is what legends are made of. This is where you grasp the moment. Just play in the moment."
"All I'm thinking about is, 'Let's win.' I'm not thinking about anything else. I'm just worried about winning, whatever it takes to win, and just making sure that I give my teammates positive energy to finish out the game."
"I felt like a beast."
Big Baby, Big Beast.

Lakers Celtics - Game 1 con Mojo


The Hug Zone Defense
KG's hands are in the air because:
A- He don't care
B- The police just showed up
C- Joey Crawford is on the court
Steve Nash must have loved Sheed for this
Phil Jackson asking Joe DeRosa to throw a ball at Chris Rock
Pierce is missing Trevor Ariza
Kobe is not missing Trevor Ariza
Kendrick Perkins doing all he can to avoid a 7th technical
Sheed auditioning for Dancing With The Technicals
Uh oh. Rondo put himself on Fisher's hit list with this move.
KG prays to the Basketball Gods for intervention in game 2.

Kryptonate Slays Superman Again

Nate Robinson.
KryptoNate.
Dwight Howard Destroyer.
Magic Killer.
13 points in 13 minutes. 2 assists , 1 steal, 0 turnovers.
Nate made Celtics general manager Danny Ainge look like a genius by giving up Eddie House for him. Selfish? Bad teammate? Not Nate in Boston. Took him a minute to gel, now he's a 5'9" double x-factor on one of the deepest teams in the league. 
Doc Rivers was a great point guard as a player, so he knows how coach point guards. He's helped Rondo develop into one of the best point guards in the NBA. And now he's got wild card Nate Robinson fitting in with a system that produces championship caliber basketball.
Nate attacked the Magic so viciously that Jameer Nelson put a flagrant hit on him. Didn't work. He put 5 more points on the Magic after that.
Nate's performance was a sign of a good night for Boston in game 6. So good that when Paul Pierce hit the floor, he laughed instead of faking a life threatening injury.
The Celtics are in the finals. Again.
Who would've thought Nate Robinson would have helped get them there?

Boston T Party - How Referees Eddie Rush & Joey Crawford Ruined Game 5

Howard: Yo Pietrus. Coach told you? The fix is on bruh. We headed to Boston for Game 6. Ref Troopers Joey Crawford & Eddie Rush are ready to Tase all them Leprechauns.
Pietrus: OK cuz it's about time we wrecked these fools. Yo do we need a 3rd guy to make this happen?
Barnes: Yeah, coach. I want in. I got a elbow for Pierce I've been dying to throw.
Van Gundy: Save it for Kobe in the next round. I think we've got this one under control.
Carter: No matter what happens, I want everyone to know that I had nothing to do with anything to help the Magic, OK? I'm just here collecting paychecks. I'm not trying to start trouble with anybody.
Garnett: I sense a disturbance in the logo, as if the Basketball Gods have been silenced by the minions of Czar Stern. I fear the Taser of Donaghy is in our midst. 
Daniels: I can't move. I see stars. I got horseface. What's happening to me? Tased? It can't be. Why Tase me in my only 3 minutes of action? Why?
Pierce: Ahhh! Aghh. Ouch! I think I got Tased too! Owie owie ow ow--- wait-- I'm OK. It's a miracle- again!!
Big Baby: Ooh I want a miracle too! Me me me! 
Crawford: The kid is losing it. Technical foul! Too much excitement over a miracle. Feel my Two Hand Taser Technique!
Big Baby: Uh... uh... buh.. uh.. that don't feel like no miracle... uh...buh...
Doc: Did ya'll have to Tase Big Baby?
Rush: It was either him or Jesus Shuttlesworth. You don't think we're trying to Tase Jesus do you?
Scalabrine: You know what time it is Pierce?
Pierce: Nope.
Scalabrine: It's Big Red to the rescue time. Dig?
Pierce: Nope.
KG: We out here battling Superman and the Czar all at the same time. 
I'm gettin' too old for this shit man.
