Bawful After Dark: February 11, 2010

"Hey! That's not a chair I'm posting up! Aaaah!
Make sure you block out some time tomorrow to pay us a visit. We've got a special treat planned to help celebrate the All-Star weekend. In the meantime, it's Thursday TNT Night BAD.

Odds are he's lying through his teeth again, but Rick Pitino claims the rumor that he's contacted the Nyets about coaching them is false. Now, my question: if Rick Pitino isn't walking through that door to the IZOD Center, where do I put in my application? I mean, what qualifications could they possibly have for the next Nyets coach? (Wait, you mean I would have to spend a significant amount of time in Jersey? Screw that!)

Bawful Trade of the Day:
(Sorry, a little short on time today, can't really give the details or analysis of these trades)
darkcoupon continues a tradition I always enjoy -- making fun of how traditionally white the Pacers are.

Bawful trade while waiting for the Super Bowl kickoff...I wanted to fix the Jazz's "dumb European white guy" problem, but in the process I may have made Indiana the whitest team in the league.

Stockton brings us a trade involving Darko Milicic AND Kwame Brown. What's not to love?

Trade details
The Knicks get the defense of Amare, the youth of wallace and the technique of Kwame. That will for sure lure Lebron!

Pistons get Darko (he should have never left) and another sharpshooter, in the person Mobley (does he even play?)

Suns get Villanueva and Lee... hey, this could work for them... it WOULD be an upgrade! well, can't win them all.

Worst of the Night in Pictures:

For the last time, Peja, this is NOT soccer!

And you wonder why we call him the Pumaman...

OM NOM NOM NOM

Sasha Vujacic - Professional Basketball Player

Why is it that every single picture of Don Nelson includes him either looking disheveled, looking confused, looking overweight, and/or greeting one of his former players?

Poor Marcus Camby

"Hey, didn't I tell you to go order me some more collarless black shirts and gray suits?! I'm on my fourth one of the week!

Nationally Televised Games:
Magic at Crabs: Cleveland can tie its franchise record of 13 consecutive wins tonight. If the Illusionist aren't hitting the three, the Crabs got a good shot of building that winning streak. Shaq may not be able to do much anymore beyond wrapping himself in Icy Hot patches and waddling around like a mummy, but he can shut down the Pumaman fairly well.

Spurs at Nuggets: This Spurs team is a mess. Watching Richard Jefferson play makes me want to break something. It's a good thing they've got a few days off thanks to the All Star break. Several of the team members will be exhausted from flipping through their latest AARP magazine.
