Never has cowardice been displayed so openly.

From the start, Viakanado feared Calderon's butter-like J. In one of the most disgusting displays I have ever witnessed, Viadako flopped (a practice I, as a San Antonio Spur, knew nothing about). 2 fouls later, and the Spanish Crossbow was benched-to Vindakado's delight.

He snickered as he buried threes like a child murderer does his infant victim. I was out-of-sorts. With only Turkoglu, Duncan, JJ, and Bonner, what token resistance could I offer? So I watched Vikadiko soared over the PIP Maximum of 30 on his way to a commanding lead.

As we all know, Calderon's game is like an M. Night Shymalan movie-the best part is always the first half, before it goes to shit. So with him missing his warm-up period, Calderon was not his usual self.

Until the fourth quarter.

That's when Jose came alive! Shot after shot approached the basket, some almost going in. THe spanish son of Wilt Chamberlain was simply unstoppable.

The score? Who knows. Maybe it was a tie. Maybe it went to Overtime. Maybe i lost by 45. That's not important.

What's important is that a statement was made. I now officially announce Calderon is running for the League Scoring championship.

Make your time, dogs. Make your time.

Of course I press the wrong passing icon button on the final play, so instead of running a give and go with Nash for the win, I run a give and THROW THE BALL 30 FEET AWAY TO KAPONO!

Yea, that last play was odd. I was like "what the hell is he doing". Sucks that it ended that way. I was so nervous.

IMO, we need to tone down 3pt shooting next season. This is ridiculous lol

LOL. That was a crazy game man. You KILLED me on the 3 pt shots. That was a lot of fun though, even though I lost as usual. I actually felt like I feel this team clicking for me.

The best 3 pt shooting team in our league shoots 36%....that would be good for about 20t in real life.



CJ, I'm heading online now if you want to start our game a few minutes early.

lol ive already been down that road conex. i was told to shove it up my asshole!

then i got carrol and agreed! viva 3 point shooters!!

i still don't see how anyone can legitimately argue for lowering 3pt shots.

our 3pt percentages are drastically lower than NBA team's 3pt percentages: lowest 3pt shooting team in the nba still shoots 32%, as opposed to our league where there are 11 teams shooting under 32% and 8 teams shooting in the 20 percentile range.

as for your best 3pt shooter, he is only shooting 39% from 3, compared to the NBA's best 3pt shooter who shoots almost 50%.

there are 43 players in the NBA who shoot over 40% from 3, our league only has 27 players shooting over 40%, and many of those 27 players only have 1-20 attempts compared to the NBA list in which only one of the 43 players has under 100 attempts.

3pt shooting, if anything, is a little bit low compared to real life 3pt percentages (team and individual statistics).

It's still too easy IMO. I don't care what the stats say. 3 pointers made is a better indicator since we probably take a lot more than most NBA teams..
