In a game that reminded me a lot of a certain mid-season Orlando-LA game, last night Scott Brooks instructed his team to foul Omer Asik repeatedly and intentionally, usually off the ball, sending Asik to the line 12 times in the fourth quarter. Predictably, most people hate this kind of basketball. Here's Royce Webb:
I work for a software company in Seattle. I make a decent living. Imagine, if you will, that my company decided to move to Minnesota and offered to move me there as well, but said that since the opportunities for software companies are not as plentiful as they are in Seattle, I'd have to take a 20% pay cut. In this hypothetical scenario, I'd say "thanks but no thanks" and go get a different job at my market value in Seattle.
This will be a short one. Truehoop brought this laugher to my attention:
The NBA Season is ready to start on Christmas Day, the last couple of preseason games are being played as I write this up, and it's time for me to cater to every serious NBA fans love of season previews! The 2011 Geektastic Preview is going to be way too large for one article, so I'm dividing it up into divisions (and even so, it's going to be long, so get a cup of coffee!). I start things off today with the Northwest Division, from worst to first.

The 2011 Geektastic Preview is going to be way too large for one article, so I'm dividing it up into divisions (and even so, it's going to be long, so get a cup of coffee!). In this article I'm going to preview the Oklahoma City Thunder, a team for whom the big question is, can you win a championship without a superstar?
As with part 1 (which you can read here), I'm calling them guesses, not predictions, because this way if I'm completely wrong, I won't look as stupid. Will I do something as crazy as amnestying Kobe freaking Bryant again today?
