I don't quite understand using the "Black KKK" terminology (is that something I'm missing), but other than that I think he's mostly right. Like all Whitlock columns, there's some self-importance and disjointed structure to it, but overall I think he got the message right.ToddTheJackasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06333015679479284215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-26891301727235495122007-02-23T15:13:00.000-05:002007-02-23T15:13:00.000-05:00let's do this quickie style...Orange.

How luck and timing play a huge role in winning just one title. Mentions how miami were poised to win again but one small play looks like it changed all that.

Case in point, one of the feature articles on ESPN Page 2 has a headline calling Wade a "one ring wonder." <BR/><BR/>Come on, I am not even a huge Wade or even NBA fan, but this is unreal. I didnt even click on it because I didnt want to give it an extra hit.

I don't know if I am missing something, but is the media giving him any crap for his selective availability. As soon as Shaq is healthy Riley decides to coach again. Last year he fires Van Gundy once he knows they are a championship team. I knew once the Heat was above .500 he would do this. It's almost Karma that on his first night back Wade gets hurt (though it sucks for my fantasy team). I don't even care about the NBA and Riley's coaching behavior is driving me crazy, and it bothers me so much that the media isn't even mentioning it.Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14660317828296650604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-42398093659954737932007-02-23T11:24:00.000-05:002007-02-23T11:24:00.000-05:00Yeah, Ken cops is exciting, watching one police ch...Yeah, Ken cops is exciting, watching one police chase after another, it really gets my heart pumping.CMFosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05291296862033162143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-49191212512280646452007-02-23T11:21:00.000-05:002007-02-23T11:21:00.000-05:00Now we just need to tell Simmons the game against ...Now we just need to tell Simmons the game against the Pistons wasn't on CBS.

In all of the Amaechi/Hardaway stories that were out there, another big piece of the story was lost.
