    I believe it's inspired by my old friend the late Papa Joe Chevalier. I suppose I can come out with it now. I had an affair with him in late 1999 early 2000.

    Raptors need Derozan and Lowry to play out of their minds plus JV to get healthy to have any shot to beat the Cavs. With the way the Cavs are shooting, those factors probably won't even matter anyway. I don't think the Heat have any shot of beating the Cavs either because they just can't score with the Cavs.
    A true Warriors-Cavs match up with all parts healthy is the best series an NBA fan can hope for. I really don't know who would win in 7 games because both teams have so many guys that can score.

    I can never quite figure out if Skiles is a man of principle or an asshole. I think maybe both. I actually played against him back in the day. He was definitely a bit of an asshole then, but a hell of a gritty player that would do anything to win. He was kind of like the non-Mormon, bad ass version of Danny Ainge. A guy you despised if he was on the other team, but loved if he was on your team. I may not have liked him as an opponent, but I respected him.

    Then again this series has kind of sucked...

    Can't help but feel like which ever team wins this series will get swept by Cleveland.

    I considered Dragic CTC after he fell off, but he's hooping tonight!

    When Dragic plays well, the Heat win. When he doesn't, the Raptors win.

    Is anyone going to be surprised to see Toronto drop game 7 at home?

    I'd be more surprised to see Lamarsha drop a hotdog

    I think I remember you. That white guy on the Utah Jazz. Yeah, you were the only one. I'll remember your name soon...

    Close, but no cigar. I wasn't a white jazz man. I was blue-eyed soul. I played lead maracas in Rare Earth.
