Haha, great stuff. I'll start off with one of my favourite bands. Their live album The Cure Show I'd rate as one of the best live albums going around. Jack Jack's 80's 1.1 And never has a comb sounded so good!

Getting nervous pantaloons? On a positive note Metta's back for the next game isn't he?

Sounds great. I'm in. When do we start?

Yeah that song inspired me to get his album. Haven't listened to it yet but hope it's up to the standard of that song. I'll have to check out those others on YouTube. Thanks.

NBA.com is reporting Kobe has a stomach illness and has missed shootaround. James Harden wins Sixth Man of the Year. I think he's hit 1.66 points per shot (or something like that). Pretty incredible. Edit: Apparently Kobe has a case of gastroenteritis. May play but will surely take the edge of his game.

Haha, yes. And that must also make them cool under pressure?

I listened to the original for the first time in a while, it really pales in significance compared to his solo acoustic performance. Those were awesome. Missed them both off my mixes, had to add them in. Any other ideas for 80's classics?

That's unreal. Looks like it's a fairly common thing by the number of other videos. Makes sense to share I guess.

Ha, only just noticed a pic of that the other day. This one is taken about 1.30 am after the Clips game on monday getting ready for the Lakers game the next day. It's a clever way of doing things.

Another great win by the Clips yesterday. Take a handy 3-1 lead in the series. The Grizzlies are capable of coming back but can they? CP3 is the difference so far. 4 games today, I'd expect at least half of series today to be wrapped up and it would be no surprise if they all were.

I've had Fleetwood Mac's Best of on high rotation letly, but this is one that I enjoy listening to a few extra times. Jack Jack 4.0

Clippers had a great win yesterday. They're now ahead 2-1. Jack Watts and Billy Crystal would be happy men. Thunder wrap up their series with a clean sweep over the Mavs. But I heard that Kendrick Perkins left the game injured, haven't heard how bad it is yet. Chicago was without Noah in their loss to the 76ers. He injured his ankle in the previous game, not sure if he'll be back. The Bulls are now 3-1 down, don't see them being able to come back from this.

A couple of good one's there Macca. Nice. Here's some Acid/ Funk Jazz. Jack Jack's Jazz 2.3 Jack Jack's Jazz 2.4

Honestly, for such a clever guy, I don't understand why Cuban let Tyson Chandler go. I guess part of this is retrospective now that Chandler has won the Defensive Player of the Year. Now that Dwight has opted in to his final year his hopes of getting him and DWill are pretty slim. I'm not sure even why Dwill would go there as a free agent? What do they have to offer? Dirk is getting old and isn't the power he once was. I think he only just made the All Star list on reputation. Now that Rose it out I think the Eastern Conference has really opened up for the Celtics. I'm picking a Heat Celtics Conference final and I reckon the Heat would be worried. Spurs OKC for the Western Conference (although the Lakers have to be a chance). If the spurs get through I think they're a good chance for the championship. Anyone got a subscription to NBA.tv? I'm thinking about going for it, it's only $70 to watch all the playoffs live or on demand on pc's phone etc.

The Mavs are getting smashed. Owner Mark Cuban is "not happy Jan"

Yeah, I don't mind the new Nets logo. But at the same time it is a little dull. The Heat are having a stinker, fortunately for them so are the Knicks. Down 29 - 40 with 1:44 left in the first half finished with a 7 - 0 run 36 - 40. Knicks would be kicking themselves. Office Space sounds good, I'll have to look out for it. Thanks.

I don't know if anyone has noticed, but as soon as the regular season finished there was a quick transition from NJ Nets to the Brooklyn Nets. They've released their new logo which was designed by Jay-Z. Colours are now Black & White. What do you think?

Is Office Space any good? I need something new to watch. And while we're on a lighter note. Here's a Heat photobomb.

More on Amare Some clever bugger has made a dramatisation of the incident.

Amare Stoudemire has taken his frustrations of another loss to Miami out on a fire extinguisher. The extinguisher was in a metal case with a glass window, he managed to put his hand through the glass resulting in a severe cut. It's been reported that he's likely to miss game 3 and possibly the remainder of this series. Also I didn't see the first Celtics Hawks game but I believe Rondo was ejected for contact with a referee. He's also been suspended for game 2 as a consequence. The Celtics already have Allen out so it leaves them in a precarious position for game 2 and hence the series.

The Grizzlies really dropped the ball in the 4th quarter didn't they. I didn't watch the game but there was mention of Rudy Gay's non existent d that left Young open for back to back to back 3's. That'd have to deflate anyone. I think the biggest surprise was Orlando coming up with the win. Maybe they're not just a one trick pony? Let's see if the Knick can bounce back from a 1st game drubbing Early days.

I don't really see any surprises in the first round. The Clippers v Grizzlies and Hawk v Celtics I think should be the closest series. But the higher seeding Celtics and Grizzlies should get the win. I'd actually like to see the Clippers go deep in the finals. You'd think that would give them a good chance of signing up CP3 on a long term deal, which I would like to see. But the Grizzlies have been hitting form at the right time. And Z-BO was brilliant in the playoffs last year. D Rose has left the court with a knee injury. Not sure how bad it is yet. Could be bad new for the Bulls. Rose has really had a bad year for injuries. If it wasn't for bad luck he wouldn't have had any luck at all. China's NBA playoff promo is a bit different. I guess there is that gladiatorial element in the playoffs. Edit: Update on D Rose, he's torn his ACL, out for the rest of the playoffs. Not good news.

Haha, thanks Macca. But I can't take too much credit, it was just a cut and paste. I should really credit the original source? When I mentioned Patty Mills I don't think I gave him enough credit for his recent form. It's been junk time in the last few games, a lot of players being rested. But credit where credits due, Patty followed up his career top score of 27 against the Suns to top it again and score 34 against the Warriors, along with 12 assists no less. He's now got the record for the highest score for any Aussie in the NBA. Well done Patty.

You've just jinxed them, you know that right? Kobe seems pretty confident, says he expects to win the championship. But they all say that I guess. Patty Mills all the way (although I won't mind if the Heat get there). They've been resting their big 3 the last few games so Patty has had some good minutes, done fairly well too. The regular season is now over. The Charlotte Bobcats now have the dubious honour of having the all time worst regular season percentage. I think that means Jordan has now been involved in the best and worst seasons? Here's the first round schedule for anyone that's interested.
