of montreal and the nba playoffs, pt. dos
it's official: i don't have mono. huzzah! of course, i wasn't all that kind to my body over the weekend up in lawrence, engaging in various college endeavors. i did see of montreal again, though. a real treat. more dancing this time by all involved too. after the show, i talked to a couple of the guys in the band--frontman kevin barnes and the lead guitarist, not sure of his name--about the nba playoffs. they hadn't seen some of the recent games due to the demands of touring, which led me to try and explain steve nash's brilliance to them via smooth, swooping hand gestures, and big, drunk eyes. i guess barnes used to live in detroit, so he's a big pistons fan. i told him about how i think chauncey billups has the sweetest mustache in the nba; barnes nodded in approval.

nice. in my view, in the clamor prompted by d wade's beautiful 40 point game on the pistons, pundits have overlooked the fact that chauncey had the worst game he's played as a piston, and rip hamilton is shooting 35 % for the series and the two of them (both 85-90 % ft shooters on the season) shot a combined 55 % from the line. and they still barely lost and were in it until the last 1:30. bottom line: d wade can get 40, shaq and zo can combine for 25 and 15-20 boards, and the pistons will still win the series, even if chauncey just has average games and rip raises his fg% up just a hair or two. punto.
