Give Me The Rock
this is fantasy basketball
With game three rapidly approaching, I wanted to link to this post, but I was worried that some of you might not click through to read it. So, I’m quoting the entire thing (you can click on the first sentence to see the post in its natural environment – and evidently you can even [...]

Over at SupersonicSoul, the theory is that James has been drinking some Crunk Juice. Anyone else have any theories? Anyone think he’ll be a Przybilla-style player next year?
