Random things Thursday

I watched Ong-Bak, Tony Jaa's crazy kung-fu movie that was $5 at Best Buy, AKA my crack cocaine. Tony Jaa is simply once in a lifetime kung-fu greatness in a tiny frame. The guy is simply astounding and if you like fighting I'd highly recommend youtubing Tony jaa, you won't be disappointed. The movie was OK actually, but far from good. Marginal talent besides the unthinkably athletic Jaa kicking everything's ass.

Bottom Line: 6.2 out of 10. It really only scores points for Jaa's amazing skills.

LeBronathon 2010 is going on and I'm going to be just sitting here following it live:

Legler as well as everyone else is completely sold of LeBron creating the Three Miamiteers with Wade and Bosh, but lets talk about Miami's other players:
Mike Beasley- It's possible with the infusion of greatness he may decide to care about basketball, I'm just not buying it.
Carlos Arroyo- He's your starting point guard, but just a puppet.
Mario Chalmers- Your other starting point guard. Likely they should just opt to bring a shooter in, but that would force Wade to guard a PG all game and that probably isn't such a great idea.
Udonis Haslem- He knows how to win and will be a huge roll player for this team when it will need to defend two good post players with Bosh and Haslem. FYI he guarded Dirk quite a bit during their title run.
Quentin Richardson- Q is still in the league, but I'll be betting he's going to be traded for someone younger/cheaper. If Q raises his %39.7 from TripleLand, he will be invaluable to a team that's going to be just begging people to hit open 3's.
I'm just saying besides Haslem I really don't think there's a decent player on that squad. What happens if any of the SuPeR 3 get into foul trouble? I just think there are a lot of holes in this great plot to make a super team.
