Greg Poppavich is NOT (remove: now) COOL!

Ignore the rest of this, while the beginning was cool, repeatedly using hack a shaq in the first half is not cool.

Big game underway right now, Spurs vs. Suns 6 months exactly from the night that the Spurs eliminated the suns from the playoffs. Exciting game from two big rivals, the spurs have eliminated the suns for a few seasons now and there's no shortage of beef.

Case in point, Shaq coming out in the offseason and saying that the Hack a Shaq strategy, used by the spurs, was basically for pussies. First off: it is, Second: big fella hit your damn free throws. Rick Barry has offered to teach shaq to shoot between his legs and gurantees he'll be shooting over 70% but the Big Cactus, Shaq Deez, or Usain Bolton, refuses. Personally, I'd love to see that for entertainment and to see his pct go up.

So all that being said, how does the game start? No less than 5 seconds into the game Michael Finley (Wisco) grabs Shaq in a bear hug and after about 3 seconds the refs realize that's illegal and blow the whistle. Everyone was confused, no one even thought hack a shaq was possible, certainly not this early in the game. But, one look over to the bench made it all clear, Captain Ahab the crazy old seaman with Yellow teeth, none other than Greg Poppavich, is giving shaq two thumbs up.

Jokes on you Deez, game on.
