Day One - 4/27

[13:29] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: Dear Aaron,
[13:29] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: Welcome back to cable
[13:29] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: for the decision you've made, we present you with Hawks-Heat
[13:30] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: Glad to have you back
[13:30] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: Love,
[13:30] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: Cable
[13:30] Aaron Rosenberger: fuck yeah!
[13:30] Aaron Rosenberger: is there any better way to make my triumphant return?
[13:30] Aaron Rosenberger: i hope wade goes for 50
[13:30] Aaron Rosenberger: j smoove dunks from the three point line
[13:30] Aaron Rosenberger: and acie law iv hits the game winner
[13:31] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: dude. that would be the most amazing thing that could happen
[13:31] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: it still pains me that he's a bust
[13:31] Aaron Rosenberger: it pains me so much that i'm not ready to admit he's a bust yet
[13:31] Aaron Rosenberger: i'm still holding out hope for him to be the lefty sam cassell
[13:31] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: well yeah, true...thats the first time i've used the term
[13:32] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: totally. i can see him becoming crafty veteran eventually
[13:32] Aaron Rosenberger: probably won't happen, but i can dream
[13:32] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: totally. i really hope the hawks take this one, and i definitely don't want them to get blown out again, that would be depressing
[13:33] Aaron Rosenberger: word. this was my favorite series going in
[13:33] Aaron Rosenberger: but they have to figure out how not to suck on the road
[13:33] Aaron Rosenberger: it's just getting ridiculous at this point
[13:33] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: yeah dude, totally. i don't know how they can suck on the road when its not like they have much of a crowd to create home court advantage
[13:33] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: i mean every game is nearly a road game
[13:34] Aaron Rosenberger: right. maybe the ATL is just that powerful for black people
[13:35] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: dude. that could totally be the case
[13:35] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: the picture of Ben Gordon on espn this morning looked like jordan
[13:35] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: like i seriously thought they were doin some bulls-jordan connection special
[13:35] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: it sorta freaked me out
[13:35] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: ben gordon is the bizarro michael jordan
[13:35] Aaron Rosenberger: exactly.
[13:36] Aaron Rosenberger: i'm still not ready to give him props
[13:36] Aaron Rosenberger: if the bulls win this series, i might
[13:36] Aaron Rosenberger: but i wouldn't want him on my team
[13:53] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: dude, totally. he could be shooting them out of this series just asmuch as he's keeping them in
[14:05] Aaron Rosenberger: i think he's the worst kind of player
[14:06] Aaron Rosenberger: he makes just enough plays to convince someone to pay him
[14:06] Aaron Rosenberger: and then stabs you through the heart
[14:07] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: dude. exactly. i mean I guess if I'm the Bulls right now I want him, but if i'm the bulls in two years, or even next year, when we're expected to be good, I don't
[14:07] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: he's gonna raise you up if you're bad, and bring you down if you're good
[14:09] Aaron Rosenberger: i decided yesterday that he's the jim edmonds of basketball
[14:09] Aaron Rosenberger: when he looks good, he looks great
[14:09] Aaron Rosenberger: but that's because he makes things so much more difficult for himself
[14:10] Aaron Rosenberger: if he were really an elite two guard, these games wouldn't be that close at the end
[14:10] Aaron Rosenberger: but he can only do one thing well
[14:11] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: dude, totally! that makes so much sense
[14:11] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: exactly. and if he could stick to that role i woudl be way more comfortable with him
[14:11] Aaron Rosenberger: if he could defend at all, maybe ray allen doesn't even hit the shots to send these games to ot
[14:12] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: yeah exactly, if he had any size at all maybe ray wouldn't hit those shots
[14:12] Aaron Rosenberger: and his heroics wouldn't be necessary
[14:13] ajrosenberger@gmail.com: absolutely. he's like gutsy glasell, but in a different way
[14:14] Aaron Rosenberger: oooooh! jumping into the way back machine!
[14:14] Aaron Rosenberger: nice reference
