Game Thoughts: Spurs vs. Lakers - Nov. 13

[Medvedenko]

Yeah, some nice players....Bynum, Critt (can play the 2 possibly) and Farmar...maybe trade Farmar, as I like Critt better. Still, if Kobe was 26, then of course he would stay, but he needs to be with other veterans. The FO has done some good things in getting young talent but it's sacrificing the now especially when you have Kobe....Damn, Kobe's the second oldest player on the team.

.. I just realized how privileged I am to just read TiMVP's after-games thoughts without watching the games myself.. I am not sure others feel the same too..

Kudos to TiMVP!!

True...this saved me 180 bux for the inside ticket! Now I can go back to watching Heroes...

Hey, MannyIsGod. Come closer and peer down into the microscope. Look a little to the right. No, you overshot, back a smidgen to the left. There, that's me, the "noob" waving up at you.

Let me tell you how impressed I am with your post count. Why, you're now something of a pied piper as attested by the fact that a cascade of copycats in the clique re-used your phrasing " @ ..." after they saw it in your post. And, isn't it fun to sit back and watch lil' ol' Shoog toy with the new amoeba. What made it so funny, in fact, was to see just how easy it all was.

I won't ask you for advice on how to rise in competence, like you, around these parts because it would be impossible for me. A man can't teach a dog to appreciate Beethoven or Bach; the sighted can't impart in words to the blind what it's like to see. In other words, to reach your lofty perch would require the supernatural transcendence of my very nature. But, alas, I am what I am.

So turn up the magnification a little bit more, Can you make it out now? I'm not actually waving at you; I'm giving you a double-barreled bird-flipping "right back atcha." Of course, it's done with a good-natured, big ol' slobbering smile just like God does it.


(Brownie points now go to the first person who ever so creatively -- and, inaccurately since I wasn't "pissed" then or now -- writes " @ MannyIsGod for doubly pissing off the noobs." )

I take it the Ph.D. was in Humorlessness.

Chill out, you weren't the butt of the joke. You should have just rolled with it.

Unless . . . you really are timvp. I knew it!

My thoughts:

- Spurs won this game, Lakers didn't.
- I lost the ing Vbookie.

Nice work Mr. Timvp.

Duncan is just waiting for March to get here, btw.

It's my house! And if you don't like it, you can get the out

[Spurs Brazil]

That's the 3rd game of the year I could see, the other I only listened

I'm very impressed with DW, he is fearless. I think the Spurs got a very good kid.

[Mr. Body]

I think the Lakes have like 5 point guards on their roster - Fisher, Vujacic, Farmar, Crittendon, and Coby Karl.

For all those panicking we might actually have four.

Actually, I was making an attempt at humor in my ill-begotten posts on this topic. I knew you were just using my post to chide timvp in a good-natured way.

Well, I concede that its humorous intention fell flat; sorry 'bout that.

Unless . . . you really are timvp. I knew it!

Bingo! That was the goal of the ill-fated joke: to feign the hypersensitive-poor me-noobie role, to be so defensive that maybe, just maybe, it really was timvp using another pseudonym. I was, in a weird way, playing along with you.



Anyway...

Go Spurs!

(Edit: I just learned that I'll finally get to see a Spurs game. Hip hip hooray! Beat the Mavs!)

Nice work Mr. Timvp.

Another one of LJ's trolls.

Hi to all,

hadn't the time to write it yesterday but I like to say as well a big Thank You to Timvp for the "game thoughts".

For us abroad it is very very cool to have a different insight that gives us many many more information than a stat sheet or a recap...

well, i was thinking already that manu would show again he is the best slasher and the best "2 meters high" player of the league, after a refreshing summer for him but i was a bit worried for tony after his long summer... well, our tony is step after step becoming the best point guard of the league, simply... ( and for me best is meaning : the more complete one...)

I am looking forward the night of friday evening ( 2 am for me !) : my first game of the new season...

Love you all folks !
