The NBA Mistress

Once again, I team up with Twitter’s asshole, @Mia_Heat_Index, to bring you week 2 Fanalyst Rankings. Keep in mind these were done BEFORE last night’s games.

I’m an NBA and Nuggets blogger hailing from the Mile High and play the role as the fanalyst. MIH is an east coast Miama Heat blogger and plays the role of the Asshole Fan.

It was this shot that won the game for the Miami Heat in a tightly contested game against the Timberwolves.

The Spaniard, Ricky Rubio, had 12 points, 12 assists and 6 rebounds and K-Love had 25 points and 12 rebounds led 100-99 with less than a minute to play. However, Batman simmered the Spaniard and the wolf pack to add another game to their winning column.

Not to undermind Ricky Rubio, he fed his teammates all night, his vision is utter brilliance and came down to the wire, once again. This young team is on the brink of greatness.

It was only fitting that being LeBron James’ birthday, that he have a MONSTROUS game with 34 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists. Now, THAT’S a birthday gift!!

It’s also worth mentioning that Miami’s rookie, Norris Cole, had 12 points from 6-of-10 shooting.

On New Year’s Day, Miami meets up with Charlotte again, and the Timberwolves and Dallas go head-to-head.

Until next time,

The signs were all there. The Denver Nuggets, in Rip City, with it’s second night in a back-to-back, it wasn’t going to be a blow out. At best it was going to come down to that last shot. However, sloppy play,lackadaisical defense down the stretch, and poor shooting was the undertaker in Denver’s first loss.

Raymond Felton led the Portland Trailblazers to a 111-102 win over the Denver Nuggets .

Denver was bested by Portland on the glass by 20, and the Nuggets were abysmal from the 3-point line with only making 4-20.

Mozzy had 3 early fouls and was benched, Nene was jacking up easy jump shots, Al Harrington was bricking 3′s, Gallo was only 4-15 from the field, Andre Miller and Rudy Fernandez were just as bad. For the night, Denver ONLY made 35-87 …… merely shooting 40%.

However, Denver had 28 fast-break points and Ty Lawson had a career high of 8 steals, and even despite the poor shooting, the game was tied at the half and stayed that way through the third and half of the 4th quarter.

Felton made 2 pivotal plays late in the 4th quarter that gave Portland a 7-point lead. Denver’s lack of defense, missing rebounds, poor calls and clanking shots just added to their demise.

Fear not, wavering fans, this is one game, and losses are bound to happen.

Denver face a back-to-back, again, face the Lakers both times, on Saturday and Sunday.

Until next time,

It’s no surprise I’m the self-proclaimed ‘Slandress of Twitter” or many just call me the “Twitter Trouble Maker.” So of course, I had my way with prodding Perk yesterday with sensitivities on twitter.

I enjoy it.

My followers enjoy it.

NBA players and their groupies? Not so much.

With that being said, if you attempt to *roast* me, you may want to read the bio first. So if you are one of the SENSITIVE Thunder groupies, it clearly states ——> NBA junkie. Vulgarity and Slander are my game. I bust TL’s and your favorite athlete’s egos.

So anyone, with an once of reading comprehension, should understand what I tweet about, right?? But then again, I shouldn’t expect *most* of these groupies, NBA player’s associates to have an 8th grade level of reading comprehension. DARN IT!! MY BAD!!!

You wanna see what I tweeted that started all this??? I know you wanna!!!!

That’s right! I gave his STAT line, because he clearly stated, he has haters. Simple as that.

However, someone must have felt hurt because Perkins Manager, according to his bio on twitter, sent me this:

Perkins manager responded when a follower tweeted “U Mad” ….by the way, the best response to use on twitter, he was obviously upset, but of course he mentioned how “rich” he was because that’s what “they” do when they get sensitive.

Then you may have seen the second cat twitter debate with KD often, so of course he stepped in, thinking individuals were going to attack my mentions. Unfortunately for him, he does not have that @BlkSportsOnline ether. He must lack in reading comprehension, because a scan of the bio would prove otherwise. The education these kids receive are just, so, appalling. *Read Sarcasm here*

That’s right, Ole man, came back and twitter apologized. Obviously, he felt he had to stick up for his dude, but a simple read, as I have mentioned, of the bio would have game anyone the impression of what was going on.

I need to thank them both though!! As my team was shooting, HORRIBLY, they brought so many needed laughs!!!

Thanks boys!! I appreciate you and your non-reading-comprehending-knowing-asses

See what I did there.

Until next time,

Put another loss in the Mavericks’ column, but, at least, this wasn’t another blow out like they experienced from Miami or Denver. The Thunder 104-102 over Dallas.

Dirk led the Mavericks with 29 points off of 9-17 shooting and Delonte West with 15 points off of 5-10 shooting. Lam Lam was the negative with only 4 points off of 2-11 shooting from the field.

Kevin Durat led the Thunder with 30 points off of 10 – 16 from the field and once again Westbrook’s shooting was shoddy, shocker, with 6-15 from the field.

The Thunder had 28 turnover, and still managed to win the game, when the Mavericks’ defense fudged and Durant was able to shoot a 3 at the buzzer to win the game.

The Mavericks will compete against the Raptors on Friday and on Saturday, OKC against Phoenix.

Until next time,

Today, there was an interview of Carmelo Anthony via !Yahoo Sports and it sent my brain a rushing again. If you remember correctly, over a month ago, I did a “Why I am a Carmelo Anthony” post that NY fans found interesting, Denver fans found annoying and Melo groupies threw up in my face.

Essentially, the premise to the piece was that while I may not have appreciated the manner the trade went down, or the actions afterwards, he has a choice, as we all do, to do what is best for him and his family. While, I may not buy a #7 Melo jersey any time soon, and while I may receive pleasure when NY loses to sub .500 teams, I don’t want to be a typical, bitter Denver fan.

Last week, when I gave Melo props on that beasty 37 points he had against the Celtics, I was labeled a “closet Knicks fan” by fellow Denver fans (very, very bitter). The guy has moved on, and nearly 11 months later, so should those that felt accosted and hurt by him.

Take what Melo said here to !Yahoo Sports:

“I want to win. I didn’t feel like we were heading in the right direction in Denver as far as knowing who’s not going to be there contract-wise, free agents. And they didn’t [clearly] express the future of the organization. I wanted to win. If I’m going to start over, I might as well start over from somewhere that I want to be.”

I can NEVER fault a man for looking out for him and his family. NEVER.

How many of the fans took into consideration those last days of Melo attending practices and shoot arounds??? The tension as thick as the pot smoke in Balkman’s car, I assume, how many thought about the emotional stress of this nature??

“There was crazy stuff that [Nuggets coach] George [Karl] was saying. I was saying, ‘How could you say that?’ Before I left, George and I were talking and he kept telling me he wanted me to stay and this and that. As soon as I leave, [everything changed]. I was more kind of stunned with where that was coming from. I don’t know if it’s out of anger or something that he felt throughout the whole 6½, seven years that we were together.

His feelings???

“There was plenty of nights where I didn’t rest and sleep before games, on the road. I was up all night talking about the trade to people. I was trying to stay positive about it, but it got tough.”

Did any of the redundantly, bitter fans ever think, that perhaps, Melo felt guilty? This was his home for so many years?

“You start thinking about all kinds of stuff and how other people are going to be affected. I knew me. I knew I could handle that stuff. But I knew Chauncey [Billups’] wife and his family were going to be affected. I knew Anthony Carter’s family was going to be affected. I wasn’t worried about me. For what? I get that [expletive] all the time. I’m past worrying about what people are saying about me.” – Melo

So many of us wanted him to return, a closing chapter, although for many of the Denver fans, it wouldn’t have mattered. In their eyes, Melo was a traitor, he was the enemy, when, in fact, this is a business…….

“I hope so. I’ve been through a lot in that city. But I’ve been through a lot good and bad. I hope they can realize and recognize the things that I did to that city. What I accomplished in Denver was a lot. I know we didn’t win a championship, but we accomplished a lot. I was part of an organization that did a complete 180-degree turnaround. I was proud to say that and proud to be a Denver Nugget.” – Melo

This is what separates the bitter from the “I’ve move on” fan. If you can honestly say, “I appreciate what he did for my city, I appreciate the relevancy he brought to Denver, I appreciate him.”

Then I would say: YOU ARE OVER MELO.

Apparently, Kendrick has his panties in a bunch again, but then, what’s new.

The highly respected Chris Webber, apparently, called him an overrated post defender, remember this is his “JOB” to critique, judge NBA player’s performances.

Critiquing and giving an opinion does not equate to “hating.”

Sounds like someone is M-A-D!!!

Earth to Perkins, having a ring does not make one’s opinion better than the next. He critiqued your work, just as he does to so many other players and teams. Why you mad, though??

It’s not as if he called you a “Jennifer Hudson dieting, pussy ass, going to twitter to whine, but afraid to say it to his face, crisco looking, mama dropped you on the head, fake toughness, Betty Crocker BITCH.”

Right???? He didn’t say any of that….

So Kendrick Perkins, next time you wanna E-thug, just take into account, you probably will never tell C-Webb “Bro, you ain’t got a ring, so you ain’t shit” …… because that  WON’T be happening…

Wanna know why???

You are still a suspect, all talk, but no substance, CRISCO-nator.

That’s all you are.

Oh, and I’m not “hating” and how does one hate on Crisco, anyway????

Until next time,

Mrs. NBA
