Yeah, there are plenty of Lakers jerseys in the world. But I'll take quality of quantity 9 times out of 10.
The Philippines are crazy for B-ball. Draft international!

Junk Drawer -- March 25 -- Day Off

Y5k — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 12:53:36 -0000

The boys in Black and Red have the day off and so do I. (Well, they may have practice, and I have a few things to do, but we'll call it even.) I spent my last day off alternating between dealing with the new dog -- who came from the pound as has a few issues -- and looking for work -- because I have a few issues.

Which got me to thinking ... the Blazers are not on today, what to do?

Bonzi and other USA ballers are a "cancer" on Chinese basketball, says Hong Kong newspaper, because they are shoot-first ball hogs that ultimately don't help their team win.

Awesome Assists Deja' vu

Feb. 23, 1987
Seattle Super sonic Nate McMillan sets NBA rookie record with 25 assists in 124-112 win over the LA Clippers.

That’s pretty crazy.
22 years ago to the day (the Clips game was on Monday morning in Hong Kong where I am, so it's "to-the-day" here) of Blake's awesome assist night.

Junk Drawer Jan. 24 -- all apologies

Y5k — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 07:05:08 -0000

First off, it's 3:05 PM here in Hong Kong and I've just returned from a butt-kicking yoga session. No joking around. I am WORKED.

Which got me thinking, I probably owe some people a few apologies. I was kinda of a jerk to a few people during and after the Cavs game the other day. I just got really worked up and was ticked about a few things. Normally I don't talk trash to other BEdgers, but I lost my cool. Sorry.

I've also recently had a friend of 20 years turn his back on me. Strange. I can't think of what I did or didn't do to tick him off so much, but I think it was just things running its course, I suppose. That's what my wise woman tells me, anyway. She usually gets things right, or pretty close to right.

Some good games coming up, and by "good" I mean "Blazers run up the score and Ike and Shav play good minutes while Roy rests and Greg gets his per-game averages up."

Sleep now, my little west coast babies. I've got to go shopping for a Chinese cellphone.
