no he isn't

I don't agree with the coaching decision to hold the ball out near half court until about 4 seconds left on the clock, yes the other team will not get another shot but they know who will be shooting the ball, start moving it around with 10 seconds and assuming no gimme opens up design the offense for your "go to" guy to open up near the buzzer.

And yes I forgot about the "homer" officiating that is the NBA.

I also can't stand, and not to excuse the Bulls, nearly every team does that same thing. It's more of a defensive strategy, hold the ball so the other team can't score, and that seems more important than actually getting a quality shot.

Time to start scouting the NFL draft.

Well, preseason is my favorite time of year in every sport. The actual season is a letdown since the incidence of off the field incidents goes down very fast(unless you are the Bengals).

Gotta love all the double headers though. First one should be a napper, but I want to see Durant against Phoenix.
