Playoff positioning is like unravelling a giant sweater that someone keeps knitting and knitting and knitting ...

Once again, Thursday evening brings us a limited NBA schedule. However, like last week, we once again have two games with monumental playoff implications. In our opening matchup, we have the Royal King James and his valiant Cavaliers taking on the Nets of the Kingdom of New Jersey. The night closes with the Large Sailboats of Los Angeles once again taking on the Boats Used Primarily For Shipping, also of Los Angeles.


Without stepping into the domain of the Friday master of ceremonies, let me quickly foreshadow the result of our opening act by saying there was a large disturbance in the Force as our faithful webmaster's favorite Global Icon lashed out with an energy not felt in many, many moons. Men and women stood in awe as the conquering King James played like no mere mortal - dominating and obliterating all in his path. Alas, now the Kingdom of New Jersey must regroup and assault its next opponent with heightened vigor and pep if it hopes to continue play in the tournament of champions.


As for me, it has once again been a pleasure to be here. I am Jordi Scrubbings from The Serious Tip and don't forget: be good to your bartenders and they will be good to you. Peace.
