The only good part about watching the Celtics lose their 13th straight game last night? Changing the channel to watch Texas's Kevin Durant put up 37 and 23 against Texas Tech, and
knowing the Celtics are so bad that they should have the best chance to draft Durant, who will an NBA star, in June. Of course, either by bad luck or by Danny Ainge's brilliance the
Celtics could wind up with an overrated player who will be mediocre in the NBA (like, say, this guy). But for now, there is hope.

... bizarre to see Tony Parker consistently step off open three point shots to dish it in to Tim Duncan or another Spurs player. While Tim generally hits his patented bank shot, it also resulted in several
turnovers on Parker's part. Parker, while trying to create plays for everyone else ... shooter, was a brutal defensive liability. He never really got it going from the shooting side
either. In the end Tim Duncan scored 30 and Tony Parker had 26 and other than Finley, I could not ...

In describing Tim Duncan's dunk, the announcer said, "Tim
Duncan--exclamating the finish!" Very nice.

a defensive player gets to close to him; and Tim Duncan stares in disbelief whenever a foul is called

... just beginning to learn how to rally with regards to football. We've won national championships in golf and field hockey before and have had pretty good success in soccer, baseball

... with Houston) a quick ejection in a playoff game? Drexler had spent his whole pro career whining to the officials, and Jake had finally had enough. That was O'Donnell's last game as
an NBA referee. Now another classic ref, Joey Crawford (left), has gotten into it with Spurs star Tim Duncan. And shades of Jake, old Joey's earned himself an early summer vacation over it.

NBA referee and resident hothead Joey Crawford has been suspended through at least the end of this year's playoffs for ejecting Tim
Duncan from a recent game for laughing while on the bench. If you watch the video, the ejection seems clearly unwarranted: What's interesting
about all this from my perspective is the confirmation the backdrop to this episode offers for a core part of my approach to corporate governance. In ...

Only Professor Bainbridge has the special insight to note that NBA referee Joey Crawford's suspension-drawing ejection of the Spurs Tim
Duncan in a game last week confirms the core of the Professor's approach to corporate governance -- "Whether on the court or in the board room,
the power to review is the power to decide."

... as written. Even granting that some element of subjective judgment necessarily enters into determining what counts as an "altercation," clearly what was occurring when Stoudemire
and Diaw left the bench was much more of an altercation than what was occurring when San Antonio Spurs Tim Duncan and Bruce Bowen left the bench earlier in the game. Continuing the parallels with the arguments for formalism in law, Jackson stated: " ...

... the rest of the team was shut down. Cleveland brings not only the most promising young talent in the game but also a team defense modeled on the Spurs themselves. As a Spurs fan, my
hope is that the Cavs won't have an answer for Tim Duncan or Tony Parker (most teams don't), Manu
Ginobili takes over games in stretches, and the numerous Spur outside shooters keep their touch. After all, in local parlance, that's what brung 'em.

A10th Circuit panel (judges Deanell Reece Tacha, David M. Ebel, and Harris L. Hartz) is hearing oral arguments today in American Athiests, et al. v.
