Punch Drunk (Heat 98 Bucks 86)

In my Puffy voice, "Take that! Take that!" 

Confucius says, “The expectation of life depend upon diligence; the mechanic that would perfect his work must first sharpen his tools.” Then Buddha got up and said, “Chaos is inherent in all compounded things. Strive on with diligence.” William Penn wasn't gonna let these boyz show him up so he said, “Patience and Diligence, like faith, remove mountains.” Uncle Wille with a 3rd grade education kept it 100 and said, "Well playboy, if you don't give up you can do whatever you wanna do." Then they all dapped each other up and broke.

Well the Miami Heat was both patient and diligent on Tuesday night as they grinded it out for 3 quarters throwing body blows. They finally landed a punch to the jaw in the first 2 minutes of the fourth by going on a 12-0 run that had boyz staggering the rest of the way to go up 2-0 with a 98-86 win on South Beach.

The Bucks thought that they had a shot at pulling the upset because they were hanging around for most of the joint. At the start of the fourth they were only down 68-65 and boyz up in Milwaukee were on some Rocky Balboa type joints. Then all of a sudden Ivan Drago showed up with the bad amazon chick and put that thang on 'um! Only problem playboy, is that this ain’t a movie! The biggest and the baddest is always gonna win the series.  

That’s what I love about the NBA Playoffs! The best TEAM always wins because you have to play a best of 7 all the way out. So nobody can show up and pull a Butler for 3 hours and advance. Naw patna, you gotta win 4 of them joints to advance and Rocky’s not winning 4! So have a Coke & a Smile and just be happy you made it to the freaking playoffs pimpin'!

D. Wade jumped in and dropped off 21 to the body while LeBron concentrated his efforts to the left eye with 19. Then all of a sudden Chris Bosh, Shane Battier and the Birdman each put 10 in the Bucks rib cage to drop him before ole Ray Ray ghetto stomped them in the head with 7. Then James Brown rose from the dead to sing that “I Live In America” joint.

Don’t act like you’ve never seen a boy get jumped in the hood by 6 duns and he’s swinging like crazy because he doesn’t know where the shots are coming from. That's called being "ghetto punch drunk." Then he makes the ultimate mistake of falling. Y’all know when a boy falls in a fight in the hood it’s a wrap because ole Pookie and in this case Ray Ray stomped him 7 times before driving off in the raggedy Impala with the mirror missing, the hole in the floor and the carpet from the roof hangin' down on his head.  

Stop playin’ with these boyz bruh! Let’s get this joint out of the way so we can really get it in. I feel that way about the entire first around of games. Although I am enjoying the Bulls/Nets series because I believe that they are evenly matched. Especially with the Bulls not having the New "Buster Brown" on the floor and Noah is hobbling but I’ll holler at you tomorrow about that Joe.

See the mark of a good team is when you see them struggle at times without panic. For 3 quarters they didn’t play well but were poised enough to keep the water out of the boat and keep the Bucks at bay. We saw them do that on several occasions during the 27 game win streak. So what that means is that boyz are prepared for this run. Don’t panic and don’t get up! So in my Huggy Lowdown voice, “Waaait for it!” because you already know they’re gonna make a run at some point during the game.

You gotta give Milwaukee credit for playin’ like some G’s though! They’re down 0-2 but they balled out last night. Gotta respect them for that but the Heat are simply a better team with shooters scattered all over the building playboy! Stop me when I start lyin’ bruh!

Holla At Ya Boy!
