Hawks Have Gone Fishin'

I know it's a little late for this "Gone Fishin'" picture, but last night was the first TNT game since the Hawks were eliminated.  And since I said that I would post all of these for each team the Bulls eliminated, and people seem to like it, here it is.  So is the dude from the Hangover and The Office from Atlanta?  I know Cee-Lo is and that is how he got to go fishing with the Hawks.

P.S. - Do NBA players actually go fishing after the season?  I was always under the impression that they went to Vegas with their boys.

Get Me This Taj Gibson Poster

WOW!!!  Somebody get me this Taj Gibson poster with the quickness.  I did not know that Taj had that in him, let alone to do it twice.  It's like Taj Gibson turned into Blake Griffin and just decided to throw down two of the most epic dunks I have ever seen.  Those dunk were so ridiculous that people aren't even talking about Ronnie Brewer's dunk on Chris Bosh, and that was serious dunk.

Get Ready for Game 5 with Yung Berg's "Derrick Rose"

 

Ok, so it's not the greatest song ever, but it's pretty awesome that a "real"(note I didn't say good) rapper made a song called "Derrick Rose".  I mean this song isn't good, but it's says a lot about how much I like Derrick Rose, that I have listened to this thing 3 times, and will probably find "Bitch I'm ballin' like Derrick Rose...Derrick Rose...Derrick Rose" rolling through my head during the game tonight.  And it is kind bad ass that they put in a sample from the Derrick Rose interview (3:15 into the video), where he asked why he couldn't win the MVP.

It's time for the Bulls to stop dicking around, they got a must win game tonight.  Let's do this.

I'm Starting to Question Wisconsin's YouTube Music Video Skills After Seeing this Brewers Rap

 

As I've blogged about before, people in Wisconsin love to make YouTube music videos about their sports teams, and I have always thought they were the best at it.  It was starting to become one of their things like beer, brats, cheese and driving slow.  But now Keith and his Brewers Rap has to go and ruin everything that the good old state of Wisconsin has built up during these last few years.  I'm going to need to see at least two more videos of "Teach Me How to Bucky" quality to forgive Wisconsin, for this abomination.

P.S. - Prince is around for one more year, so yeah it's time to fear the beer.

Lakers Have Gone Fishin'

My original plan going into the playoffs, was to reserve "Gone Fishin'" posts for teams the Bulls had eliminated, but I felt like I had to make an exception for the Lakers.  When the two time defending champs, who had been to finals the last 3 years, get swept out of the playoffs, and act like punks in the process, you have to celebrate their exit from the playoffs.

Now That's a Home Run Trot

 

David Price just showed all those power hitters how it's done right here.  This home run trot has it all;  a bat flip, two cart wheels, a slide into third, and "the front flip-roll, with the shooter fingers".  Then top that all off with totally leaving the guy hanging on the high five at home.  Just perfect.

Calm Down, Derrick's Got This

 

That was the Bulls team that won 62 games this year.  That was the Bulls team that has the MVP and the best defense in the league.  That was the Bulls teams that I watched all year and thought could win the NBA championship.
