The Next One(s)?

kevin_dKevin Durant is a carbon copy of MJ in the mid-80’s. The smile, the bright eyes, the boyish good looks, the way he talks, the way he carries himself. He’s got everything it takes to be the next one. And this really has nothing to do with who Jeff Green is, but since he’s gonna be Durant’s running mate for a while in Seattle, let’s make him the next Scottie Pippen. He does have the all around type game and maybe he’ll marry a gorgeous Assyrian-American and lose lots of money to Kevin playing poker.

Which beings us to another pair of pseudo-ballers/gamblers. Young Skeets (Jordan) and I (Pips) will bring you a podcast by about noon on Thursday. J.E. will lead the stories of us running the casino in Montreal (sort of), and I will compliment his game.

So, if you have any questions or comments, please get ‘em in. There’s a 93% chance we’ll use one of your calls and/or e-mails.*

    “The smile, the bright eyes, the boyish good looks, the way he talks”…Is there something you’re not telling us Tas? Just wondering.

    Plus: NBA players wives are not nearly as hot as I thought they would be. I am a little disappointed.

    Come on Tony, you don’t think some of the wives here are hot, hot, hot?

    Or maybe basketball players are a lot deeper than you think and are looking for more than just looks in a lady friend.

    Does that make JD Horace Grant or Toni Kukoc?

    I’d say JD is Phil Jackson. He’s always calling Tas and I “pussies.”

    Hmm…I don’t like the sound of “Air Durant”, but I’m sure you guys can think of something else…

    Did you steer clear of all the Chinese folks at le Casino de Montréal? I ask because I might’ve been one of them … we could’ve bumped into each other. But no one wants that.

    Any city that has a casino reachable by subway is tremendous. I salute Montreal.
