Super Saturday

What's up, gang-

Today is one of those super saturdays in the year..........the college football season's winding down, NBA action tonight, college football early season, Robert Yan completing his law school applications...........o wait, that's not really progressing too much right now.


My roomies and I are watching the hometown boys, Fighting Illini, going to the #1 Ohio Buckeyes and leading them after the first half 21-14. TTTHHHEEE ohio state buckeyes got a TD in 2 plays to start the game, and it looked like we were in bad shape, i was ready to go the library after halftime expecting it to be a blowout, but hidey ho, whaddya know, illini are playing WELL. DAMN. Ohio state just converted 4th and 1. Very close call, good spot by the refs. Let's do it, boyz

Big night in the NBA last night, as I alluded to. Josh is purring ( one of my roommates is a big buff dude who likes food). As opposed to me, a non-buff asian dude who likes food).

LeBron looks like he might be taking his game to another level this year. Last year he had problems closin out games; last night he sure did on the road vs. the kings, really took that game over along with devin brown and really finished them. Granted, the kings are young and don't have much experience in close games, but still.........the king is reigning over the NBA. And this comin from a guy who's never been high on lebron.

I have guys who i just "like" and those who i "dislike," there are some who are in between who i'm neutral about, but most either fall between 2 categoriies. It also influences my draftin decisions.

My guys list:

Andrei Kirilenko: 10 pts, 8 rebs, 11 asts, 4 stls, 3 blks, 4 TO's. Not a bad little line for that man.
Josh Smith: 8 pts, 5 rbs, 4 asts, 1 stl, 2 blks, 4 TO's. Not too hot, but j-smoove will have awesome season.
AI2: Andre Iguodala: 26 pts, 8 rebs, 7 asts, 3 stls, 2 TO's. Those 2 TO"s are minimized, nice to see him cutting down on mistakes w/ his new go-to status.


ILLINI INTERCEPTION IN THE BACK OF THE END ZONE!


One more my guy: Stephon Marbury, 14 pts, 4 rebs, 7 asts, 5 TO's, 3 stls, bad FG%...........he's sort of an enigma, but i always seem to wind up w/ him every season for what i think is good value............he used to be like a 2nd round draft pick, and he performed like so in the 2004-2005 season, but since then he's been stinkin. Think it's gonna be somewhere in between this year, slight chance he takes over that NY team, but it's hard w/ 5 ballhawgs on the court at any time. we'll see.



Fantasize on, Robert Yan
