Quote of the day
"I don't foul out much. I guess I had the red flag on me today, but you're not going to get me to comment on the referees. I like my money in my pocket." -- Heat guard Dwyane Wade, after fouling out against the Lakers on Sunday, his first time since October, 2008Daily blurb
Congrats to team Gordie, whose -45 was the top score in GuruGolf this weekend. Worstball honors went to Waddups (+55), an impressive feat with only two golfers making the cut. Ryan Moore provided a useful +12 on the final day. Sunday was a good day for east coast NBA guards. Deron Williams went off for 57 points scored, yet still found a way to dish out 7 assists. Rajan Rondo put up an 18-20-17 triple double. No close calls there! According to the Elias sports bureau, the last player to get at least 17 in each of those three categories was Magic Johnson in 1989, and the last player to equal or top Rondo is each category was Wilt Chamberlain (22-21-25) in 1968. That’s pretty nice company. The only other player to have even reached 15-15-15 in the past 25 years was Jason Kidd, and he only did it twice. Admittedly, Rondo got 5 points, 2 assists, and 5 rebounds in the overtime period. It was his fourth triple double of the season, and his second in the last 3 games. Do you suppose Rondo is showing off for potential trade suitors, or trying to convince the Celtics to hold on? |

I like this quote a little better:
—Deron Williams really wanted to make his tee time Monday morning in Miami.
Knowing coach Avery Johnson would be giving his team the day off if they won, Williams took matters into his own hands and scored a franchise-record 57 points to lead the New Jersey Nets to a 104-101 victory Sunday night over the Charlotte Bobcats.
“I had an 11:39 tee time, so I had to make sure I’d make that,” said Williams, an avid golfer. “So I wanted to contribute.”
Everytime I take Williams he overwhelmingly under performs. I fixed him, I didn't play any fantasy games yesterday. I didn't even turn the PC on!
