Even though we were able to beat the Pacers by 27 points last night, we still didn't play consistently throughout the First Round series. Heading into the Eastern Conference Semis, we're going to have to continue to get big games from Derrick Rose, keep up our dominant team defense and get an actualcontribution from Carlos Boozer. Last night's highlights:
Regardless, we're onto the next one. Bring on.....Atlanta.
I've always been a big fan over song covers, and this is no different. Even though I don't really care for the original, this girl Karmin murdered Chris Brown's song. But not just his part, EVERY single verse.
I think I've found my wife.
Quite impressive.
Karmin, if you're out there, do an old Ma$e cover and I'm all yours.
I'm finally making it back to Atlanta next week. Although it's for work and only a couple of days (Tuesday & Wednesday), I'm mad excited to make it back down to the A. If we consider ourselves friends you probably have my phone number, BBM, Twitter, whatever. If you don't, no worries. I can be easily found at these places:
Tin Lizzy's
Morehouse
Moe's & Joe's
Probably Tin Lizzy's again
And that's pretty much it.
I'm only in town for a few days so hit me up if you're down for a light to moderate [to extreme] rage session.
Aight, so this video's not that new but I have this song in crazy rotation right now. Foster the People is one of my favorite new bands. My co-worker Mark put me on this song a few weeks ago and it's probably never leaving my iPod. Check out Pumped Up Kicks from their Foster the People EP [available on iTunes:
For everyone going to Coachella next week....they'll be there. And they'll be rockin.
With their win over New Jersey and the Spurs' loss to the Suns last night, the Bulls have taken control over home court advantage for the entire playoffs.
This is huge.
Mainly because of the added confidence to our young team and also for some much-needed momentum going into the playoffs.
Oh yea, and there was one more thing about last night's game at United Center....Scottie Pippen and Ron Harper were there. Yea. That Ron Harper.
Random but at the same time, it makes perfect sense. Somehow.
We open up the 2011 playoffs this Saturday at home against Indiana at 1:00 pm.
Gotta take a much needed late pass on this Big Sean video. It's for Made off Finally Famous Vol. 3 and it's actually one of my favorite tracks from the mixtape. I didn't realize that this was produced by my boy Deuce from WrighTrax (Big Sean- Getcha Some, Mike Posner - Drug Dealer Girl) who was a classmate back at Morehouse. Check the video:
This version doesn't have Drake on it but if you want the original version, get the mixtape. Or just click here.
This two-minute trailer is for a 30-minute short film starring Will Ferrell, Jack Black, Seth Rogen, Danny McBride, John C. Reilly and Elijah Wood as two sets of the Beastie Boys battling to be the real trio. Sounds weird, I'm sure, but it actually looks pretty amazing. The preview for the film doubles as a music video for the song Make Some Noise off the group's upcoming album Hot Sauce Committe, Pt. 2 and is also pretty reminiscent of the original. Check it out:
Rumor has it that the full-length film includes cameos from Orlando Bloom, Kirsten Dunst, David Cross, Amy Poehler, Jason Schwartzman, Adam Scott, Rainn Wilson, Steve Buscemi, Alicia Silverstone, Martin Starr, Rashida Jones, and Mike Mills from R.E.M.
I swear I was laughing out loud at this. I don't want to give away too much, just watch it. And if you don't know the lines, first slap yourself then click here. Damn, this was funny.
This time it was against the Orlando Magic and I was surprised we even played so hard considering that we already locked up the #1 seed in the East. D.Rose dropped 39, making Jameer Nelson look like a damn fool in the process. The win also improved our record to 60-20. And that's nasty. Check the highlights:
Here's an interesting stat for you:
Not getting ahead of myself. Just take from that what you will.
