First Of The Year!!! Recipe Wrap #1: Banh Mi Pickled Veggies

at least the evening wasn’t total waste

and a bahn mi from Quang will cure what ails you. Even a T-Pup blowout.

this should be fun.

Tonight he scored 12 points on 7 shots, hit all 6 of his free throws, 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, no turnovers

No excuse for the lack of effort tonight, but missing Beas, Webster and Jonny does significantly cut into our talent level

Answer: Pretty damn horrible.

….but xbox live just threw in espn3 and i can now watch nba games on my xbox.

Let’s turn those frowns upside down!

Well, Orlando and Miami are making a lot of teams look bad. Orland beat Washington by 30 points, lost to Miami, and now beat the Wolves by (I’m too scared to look at the final score). Miami has destroyed everyone except Boston in the first game as a new team.

So, as bad as the Wolves looked, chances are they can’t look that much worse. Now granted, I didn’t see the Heat crush New Jersey, so maybe the point differential doesn’t do the Wolves justice. But I’m assuming that New Jersey and Washington looked just as bad.

Now, being as bad as Washington and New Jersey isn’t a good thing, but it’s about where I expected this team to be this year. So color me not shocked.

I think the Memphis loss was much, much worse than these last two.

That was one of the most one-sided games I can ever remember. Throw away the stat sheet — nobody played well. I felt bad for them at times because this was far-more about ability than it was about effort. Rebounds couldn’t be reached because only Dwight Howard could reach them. The only shots we could find were Darko Prayers or running-off-a-pick jumpers. Love’s usually-helpful stuff wasn’t helpful because he wasn’t filling in the gaps as much as he was leaned on for some primary scoring.

Is Beasley that good, or are we in for another sub-20 win season?

I haven’t even mentioned our defense. Why so much help on Quentin Richardson post-ups? Why so much help EVERYWHERE? Orlando took 31 3’s and I think every one of them was an open shot because we were helping somebody out. Is every Wolf a bad one-on-one defender? Paul Pierce doesn’t need much help, and he’s not half as quick as Brewer. Man, we are terrible defensively. No improvement from last year, that I can see.

This game validated my feelings about last night: Miami wasn’t as good as the Wolves were bad — especially on defense. These contenders play a lot of games that are close when the 4th Quarter starts.

Rambis is going to start feeling pressure. I hope that tightens his damn rotation and his best players get the most minutes. His job will depend on it, because nobody in their right mind will watch this team lose by 74 points in consecutive games.

but i thank if we stick with Darko he will be betta…at least as good as lass year, when he wuz out uv shape. im de first ta hat eon his play so far but afta all dat cash we layed out mayn i mean it is whut it is gotta see whuss poppin…for whut iss wort i wuz up close on opening nigh an he wuz much bigger den Cousins

ay SnP mayn how u livin. i aint eva fucked wit korean cept for some places on univ but wuss your rec for a place to check out in de area. smoke somn

I thought I was done with this question this year, but man we threw out some janky lineups tonight. It sucks when you’re watching as Telfair swings the ball to Ellington, who drops it in to a posted up Koufos, who kicks it back out to Brewer, who sends it in on the other side to Darko, isolated against the best defender in basketball for a prayer or a leaning, falling hook/scoop shot. I just don’t know what the coach expects to have happen when he fields lineups so sorely lacking in offensive talent. I know we’re injured, but man!

Newsflash: Darko sucks.

Defend your boy!!!!

did yall read my post i sed he should be at leass as good as he wuz lass year. mayn no wun reads anymo
