EU SEI QUE ESTOU LENDO MUITO O BILL SIMMONS QUANDO...

...Publico hoje pela manhã:

"3) Na sequência, veio o arremesso de 3 pontos do Derek Fisher. Por que diabos niguém fez alguma falta antes do arremesso, o que daria aos Lakers apenas 2 lances-livres e a impossibilidade de empatar o jogo, pelo menos naquele momento? E por que Jameer Nelson deu tanto espaço para Fisher arremessar? Numa das primeiras aulas de Basquete-I aprendemos que, para evitar um arremessos de 3 pontos, temos que marcar ALÉM da linha de... 3 pontos! Falando em Jameer Nelson...

4) ... o que ele estava fazendo em quadra? O Técnico Stan Van Gundy admitiu que foi erro deixá-lo tanto tempo em quadra no jogo 1. Aí, finalmente conseguiu recuperar a confiança de Rafer Alston no jogo 3, quando este foi o destaque do jogo. E, no jogo 4, deixou Nelson na quadra pelos últimos 14 minutos do tempo regular, Mais os 5 minutos da prorrogação! Como diria Bill Simmons: ao tentar enterder isso, "minha cabeça dói"
."

E o Bill Simmons publica, em sua coluna que foi ao ar na ESPN.com (recomendo!) agora à tarde:

"0:10.8: OK, so let's talk about all the ways Stan Van Gundy screwed up these final 11 seconds. First, he pressured the inbounds pass instead of hanging back and putting his defenders outside the 3-point line; this enabled the Lakers to get a modified transition look that they never should have had. Second, you have to foul. Actually, this gets its own slew of paragraphs.

You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul.

You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul.

You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul. You have to foul.

You ...

Have ...

To ...

Foul.

I know SVG made the "I didn't want to get into a free-throw shooting contest with them when we were bricking free throws" case afterward, but how many times do we have to watch a team blow a game this way? 200? 300? Give me a number. I can't take it anymore. And third, why was 5-foot-10 Nelson guarding Fisher? Hell, I'd rather have an ice-cold Courtney Lee out there (Orlando's best defensive guard by a mile) instead of someone Fisher could shoot over? Right? Right? RIGHT????? My head hurts."


Acho que preciso de tratamento...
