NBA Playoffs and a quick song.

I'd love to see the Thunder and the Bulls in the championship. The Durant/Westbrook combo vs Mr. MVP Derrick Rose would just be too exciting. The Heat and Lakers are also very prime contenders, and are probably the two teams that seem to "need" this years championship. It could be Phil Jackson's last season, and another 3-peat for him would make a Hall of Fame coach even more special. Kobe wants to match Jordan. The Heatles are extremely hungry. Who will win it? I guess we just have to wait and see how everything pans out.

And for the song, some relatively new Mac Miller-

NBA and the Masters

Just going to post some NBA post-season predictions along with some thoughts on the Masters.

NBA-
Western Conference Finals- Lakers over Spurs in 6 (Even though I know seedings aren't set right now)
Wild card- Thunder. Who knows how they will pan out when playoffs come along. They closed out as best as possible against the Lakers last night, lets see if they can carry it over.
Eastern Conference Finals- Bulls over Heat in 7.
I think this one is pretty set in stone, the Celtics seem like they are crumbling a bit since the trade and whatnot and Rondo has just not been playing up to par. If Rondo has a good game, and they are playing defense like they were pre-Allstar break (even though no Perkins now), then the C's are pretty unbeatable.

Now for the Masters: I just wish Tiger had won this one. I want to see him hop back up and start dominating again. After the front 9 yesterday, he looked like he had his old swag back, and everyone was getting pumped. Although no one will really complain about par-ing the back 9 of Augusta, we all know Tiger could have taken it home.

And on a final note, D Rose for MVP. Yep.

Double Dose: Opening Day and a song.

Today was another big day in professional sports; it was Opening Day for the MLB. It was the day the seasons officially started and is a day many baseball fans look forward too. Unfortunately, the Giants lost to the Dodgers, but it was still a day that lived up to the hype. The only question I have is why were the Giants playing away? They won the World Series this past year; the least the league could do was give them a home game on Opening Day.

And on another note, for all you music fans, here is some Curren$y. This song is one of my current favorites.

NCAA Tournament, 2011.

Damn. If you've been following it, then you know this year has had its share of upsets. Butler making another run, Louisville in the first round, along with so many other nailbiters. I've always liked watching college sports for two main reasons: 1) they are the soon to be stars of the actual professional leagues, and 2) they give it their all 100% of the time. This is a bit different than professional leagues because I feel like a lot of the time, a lot of the well known players don't really try their hardest. Its like once you make it big, you don't have anywhere else to go, so they just pull their weight and do what is expected. These kids are trying to make a name for themselves so they just give it their all.

Music that just rides.

Current favorite music selection, a bit outdated for those of you music fiends, but definitely give it a listen. Song just... flows.

Lost.

I literally just finished watching the TV series Lost, and damn. Pretty crazy. I started watching around the beginning of February from the very beginning of the series because one of my roommates recommended it and he had an online Netflix account, which fortunately has all of the seasons available to stream (thank god for this because I probably wouldn't have lasted if I had to watch all the commercials). But yeah, definitely a good series if you've got about 100 hours free, hah. And favorite character for all of you who know- Vincent: a man's best friend.

Mac Millers new Mixtape and Lupe's Lasers

So this week had some really solid music drop- from Mac Miller's new mixtape titled "Best Day Ever" to Lupe's new album "Lasers", I think I'll have my music cut out for the next couple weeks. I am currently downloading Mac Miller's stuff so I haven't heard it yet, but Lupe's album is pretty dope. I'd definitely recommend both of them!
