30 Teams / 30 Hours: Trippin’ With Euros

You know, one can never have too many NBA season previews. (That’s a lie.) Which is why we present a new series to add to the list: The Basketball Jones’ 30 Teams in 30 Hours NBA Season Preview. Yup. It is what it is.

10:00a / Memphis Grizzlies: Was watching a little of the NBA TV a couple months ago, and Dr. J’s Sixers were playing in a hardcourt classic. There’s always that banger type that stands out from that era, and the white fellow playing along side Irving was Marc Iavaroni, new Head Coach of the Grizzlies. I love when role players become head coaches. In terms of knowledge, they know it takes talent, intangibles and lots of dirty work to win. Coaching under Mike D’Antoni probably helps a bit too. This stockpile of talent in Memphis will start to show through a fast paced / quick ball movement system. Kyle Lowry, Rudy Gay, Hakim Warrick, the list goes on and on. As I mentioned once or a hundred times, THIS TEAM’S GONNA BE FUN!

WeTube: Pau Gasol Really Wants That Watch

Another day, another foreign commercial starring an NBA player …

And once again, I have no idea what’s going on here. Not that it matters. Any commercial that ends like a long lost scene from the movie Cocktail is a-ok in my books.
