The Hose

The Ship Not be Sinking!!
Everyone (well mostly guys named Evil and Chuck) have been writing off the Nets all week...The series was set to be 3-1 and over. There were all the fans on their feet unsure whether to cheer, wearing retro Dr J, ABA style Nets jerseys that you can get at the jersey gardens mall a stones throw away, with the tags still on in case the Nets lost. But there was Richard Jefferson playing above the rim, put on afro on him and I confuse him for a young Dr. J, put a stutter on him and I confuse him for Michael Ray Ricardson(pre coke head version) There was J Kidd dropping an almost triple double and chasing around that freaky limbed argentinian all around the court. There was Mutombo, all elbows and chest, doing what they traded the big weak white guy for him to do, moving Duncan and D Rob around under the basket, grabbing big rebounds and altering shots. There was K Mart, in one sequence getting blocked twice before finally getting the foul called, battling, wanting it more than anyone (shawn bradley?, Derrick Coleman? Joe Barry Carroll? Sam Bowie? Darryl "chocolate thunder" Dawkins?) than anyone who played in the paint at the meadowlands ever did.
Screw you CHUCK!!
