Blood in My Eyes

On Boston's Game 7 loss to the Lakers and the lingering pain: "I was depressed for a while and my teammates would echo the same sentiment. I couldn't sleep. Everything emotionally and physically went into what we were doing... You don't want to go outside and there's nothing really you can do that will satisfy you. But just being around family and friends, enjoying the summer. For me, I'm just getting to the point where my body has started to heal itself. Mentally, I'm starting to work out again, running on the street. But it never leaves you, it hurts all summer."

Let me say this once, and it's gonna be harsh.

I feel dishonored.

The 2009-10 boston celtics dishonored me. There ain't nothing lower than losing to the fewking fakers in the finals. Up by 13 in the third, the celtics figured out a way to lose.

At least in the 80s when the cs lost, they didnt really stand a chance.

This team was the first nba finalist to lose a game 7 heading into the fourth quarter with the lead.

Ignominy.

In the sixth inning of game 7 of the 1975 world series, down 3-0, pete rose started pacing up and down in front of the bench (he was a player). First he was whispering. Then he was yelling.

WHAT A BUNCH OF F'N PUSSIES!

WHAT A BUNCH OF F'N LOSERS!

YOU GUYS DON'T HAVE WHAT IT TAKES BETWEEN THE LEGS TO WIN THIS GAME. HELL, YOU CAN'T EVEN SCORE. BIG RED MACHINE? BIG F'N LOSER MACHINE!

Reds responded.

How come no one gave that speech to the Celtics.

Pete Rose expresses my feelings toward the green.

Well, then multiply by 100.

After the celebratory introduction on the court, and after Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh and LeBron completed their shared press conference, Erik Spoelstra and Pat Riley took questions together.

And Riley, again, shot down the idea that he’ll coach again.

“Erik Spoelstra’s the head coach of this team.”

Riley said — and then made it seem like it was a joke — that a free agent asked if he planned to return to the sidelines, because that free agent was not all that keen on the idea.

“I’m not gonna coach this team and they don’t want me to coach this team.”
