The Mok Spot

I'm in love with Dwight Howard. It is undeniable. He is beyond fantastic. Fact.

But the Magic are currently getting their asses handed to them in the Finals. Fucking Lakers.

Leah and I were bitching about Kobe saying that he was selfish in wanting another championship because he already has three.

But I was thinking about it and it is deeper than just wanting another. He needs one more to be validated. It goes beyond just some kind of want.

Whenever you think of Kobe's last Championships you've got Shaq in the picture. He has to prove that he can do it himself. That he can lead a team. Whoa. I guess I can understand that. And he's still sexy as a fucker.

Also, I do not understand why Jaamer Nelson is playing. He was out 40 games. Clearly he did not really help his team get to the Finals. Why the urge to play him now? He isn't helping them all that much.

Magic better bring it in Game 3 at home.

Dear John Wall,

Yo, dude, I hear you're pretty good. Great, even. That if we manage to snag you that it's possible that we'll have the best recruiting class for 2010. No lie, that's fucking legit. You know I'm a huge fan of any opportunity to make my team better. But let me just say that you need to get your shit together. All this holding out and indecision? That's not fucking fly. It makes me weary about you. I get it. Deciding where to go to college is a huge decision. Even as a student, it's a big deal. As a highly recruited athlete, I can't even begin to imagine the pressure. I know what Duke can offer you. I know what you can offer Duke. I'm just not sure that both of those things will ultimately mesh together. But if you know where you're going already, then I'm going to need you to bloody say that already. I'm tired of the drama. Stop jerking us around. I don't appreciate it.

<3,

Britt

Since March of 2006, I've been in love with Gerald Henderson. That is just fact. I knew he was going to be my favorite. Until this season, the majority of that was purely on his looks. Then he decided this was going to be his year. He made the decision to put our team on his back and carry us to the top. The only problem is that he didn't. Brother didn't even come close. Now, I'm not trying to blame G. Basketball is a team effort, but don't say that we can come to you and don't deliver. Don't put yourself in a position to be our all and then fuck up.

I've heard multiple rumors (more than I have in past years) about him leaving and jumping to the NBA. G is a great player. He's explosive in all the right ways. But if he leaves after this year, he is the biggest bitch on the face of the planet. He came to Duke to win a championship. So far, he's only won the ACC. That shouldn't be enough for him. If he leaves having a final game in which he only made 1 field goal and scored only 7 points. Four of which from the free throw strike, then I hope he flops in the NBA.

I love Duke first and players second. I have not forgotten that. I will not forget that. I will not be able to accept it if he turns his back on this team. On it's fans. On me.

He better not fucking leave.

That is all.
