Anything Goes

So here’s a clip of Manny Pacquiao with the Boston Celtics who visited him after his win over Diaz to wrest the belt from him. Lucky guy. Not just becoming only the first asian to be a champion in 4 different divisions but also getting visited by the 2008 NBA Champions themselves. Tsk, would have been nice if the Lakers who visited him though … hehehe… Continue reading

As what the news have said, we now have an NBA Finals. Although the game was sloppy from start to finish, at least the number of fouls are both evened out for both clubs. Unlike Game 2, where the disparity of fouls called on the Lakers against the Celtics was pretty obvious 38-10, Game 3 turned out alright. Let’s just say Game 2 was given by the NBA to the Celtics. I remain with my stand that Ray Allen cannot play defense. I did have my doubts in Game 3 that the Lakers would win though. The Lakers missed several free throw attempts

which they normally make. If they would have lost, I… Continue reading

Best basketball actor ever? Paul Pierce, no doubt. Whoever gets carried off in a stretcher and miraculously comes back and play the game? That was just a ploy to throw the Lakers off with mind games and it worked. With all the hype about his injury coming into game 2, it was all just pure drama. Look how well he’s playing. Some players no matter how serious the injury may be gets carried off by their teammates. This one is priceless. A Stretcher? That should be something VERY serious. And comes back to the game in a short while? Plus the referees are totally favoring the Celtics too. Ever since that issue about the Utah-Lakers series that Kobe’s gotten so many calls, he barely had any in the Spurs… Continue reading

Larry O’ Brien Trophy, here they come! Finally, after 4 years, the Lakers are back in their quest for another championship. Doesn’t matter who’s going to be their opponent. Celtics? Like, most people wanted an old time sakes rivalry but naaah… Pistons? Neither. Doesn’t matter who they’ll face. This is their season! Make Vujajic shoot more threes! Weeeee. While that game 4 call blunder was a big issue for Spurs fans, put it to rest dudes! Did you even recall the previous play before that? Fisher’s shot grazed the rim, hence they should have been given a new 24 second shot clock. Which would have meant, the Spurs would have to foul them because there was only like 2.9 seconds left in the game. As a result, since they called… Continue reading

We’re going to the conference finals baby! Yeah! Finally! Lakers are in the western conference finals for the first time since the shaquille o’neal era. I was already pretty excited when the game went on from the first to the third quarters because Lakers were leading big. Then, just as the game was about to be finished, the Jazz’s centers luckily hit 3 three-pointers in a few seconds and the Lakers’ lead went from big to slim. It was a good thing that they held on to win the game. This is the NBA, where anything can happen. And 3 pointers from players as tall as 7 feet? The Jazz were very lucky to hit them… Continue reading

Soccer is my 2nd least favorite sport out there. My least desirable sport is cricket. I never experienced going through a whole soccer game on tv. The most that I’ve managed to watch are those scenes when players get a goal or some other play that highlights a good play. Still, I am impressed with die hard soccer fans. They really are the most die-hard fans of sports. Where else do you find big riots within the location of the game itself. About soccer I find it boring. All they do is use their legs to move the ball to the other end for the goal and stop your opponent from doing the same to your end. I like hockey… Continue reading
