Ep. 213: Live Man’s Chest

The Basketball Jones — The Fix — Episode 213 (.mp3)

On today’s show, Tas and I dive into last night’s entertaining Suns-Warriors game. We discuss, among other things, the numerous one-on-one mismatches the Dubs threw at Nash, how vital Captain Jack is to Golden State’s success, and what caused the Suns offense to look so out of sync.

We also talk Garbo, release our Power Rankings, Whoa Boy it up, and start a new winning streak. Do enjoy.

Today’s overall rating: 5 All-Star Shimmies! Wow!

    Skeets, Tas: I ignore why people keep saying Garbo shouldn’t have played the European Championship last summer given that Spain had already qualified for the Olympic games. The European Championship is a huge thing on it’s own over here. People here hardly even knew that it also served as Olympic qualification tournament. It’d be like wondering why Greg Oden even bothered playing the NCAA final when he already knew he was going to play in the NBA next year.

    Good show though,
    Andres, from Barcelona

    PS: Skeets, what does J.E. stand for?
    Jamario Espinosa?
    Jerome Emmett?
    Julius Erving?

    And that analogy doesn’t hold up, Andres. It’d be more like wondering why Greg Oden would bother playing in a meaningless regular season game against the 0-18 Buttfuck Idahoans when Ohio St. already has the No. 1 spot in the NCAA tourney locked up.

    Tas doesn’t give a poop about this theory.

    An email from a beloved listener, fuc*in’ tech wizard Rich:

    Regardless of the leg and when or how he injured it, it pisses me off to hear him being described as “selfish”. Tell me, if an American or Canadian athlete decided to represent their country in international competition despite being injured, how do think he would be looked upon in the media? Selfish? I would imagine he would be described as a “hero” or a “brave patriot”. Believe it or not, representing one’s country can be a greater thrill than an NBA season for many athletes. So to those who think he’s “selfish” because he’s jumping to play for Spain, …. ¡Callate! (that’s shut up in Spanish) I couldn’t find the Spanish term for “shut the fuck up” but you get the picture.

    (Ed.) Does anything else need to be said?

    JD is now the water boy?

    And just because Tas didn’t mention it today, Skeets took Lebron “Triple double” James over Gilbert “out for 3 months” Arenas

  7. J.E. Skeets at 5:33 pm on 11.27.2007

    AH-HA! I just traded Gil for David Lee actually, so … well … the jokes on … um …

    SHITE!
