I really, really wanted it to be a Perkins mid-range jumper at the buzzer - a desperation attempt with no other options - to win the championship, but I guess that's not possible anymore. :(

I hope we're not in that situation!  Nice comfortable lead, please! ;D

Dude, I would go nuts if Scal hit a big shot tonight.

I'd have to celebrate with a nice piece of veal.

Tonight I will keep track of Scalabrine's stats.  A 2 pointer is worth 1 piece of veal, and a 3 pointer is worth 2 pieces of veal.  A free throw is worth one-half of a corn on the cob.  A dunk is worth 4 pieces of veal.  A hard foul where they either call a flagrant on him or where the other player goes down wincing in pain on the floor and is down for at least 5 seconds, is also worth 4 pieces of veal.  A steal is worth 2 pieces of veal.  A rebound is worth 1 pieces of veal.  An assist is worth 1 pieces of veal.  A blocked shot is worth 2 pieces of veal.

IF the Celtics win, I will have a barbeque on Saturday in my backyard where I will eat the amount of veal and corn based on Scal's performance.  I will be clad in only a pair of green boxer shorts and flip flops and a Celtics championship hat, and the veal will be cooked on top of a fire in a 55 gallon metal drum using scrap wood.  For these purposes, one piece of veal is 8 ounces pre-cooked.  The barbeque ends when I have eaten the amount of veal and corn as determined by the terms above.  I will wash it down with lemonade.  If I fail to live up to the terms set forth above, may my soul be [dang]ed for all eternity.

I invite anyone who is interested to join me in the Scalabrine Championship Veal Challenge


Updated rules:

2 pt FG:  1 pieces of veal
3 pt FG:  3 pieces of veal

If Sheed fouls out(pretty good possibility I'd say), Glen Davis is having an off shooting game, and we have an offensive take the clock down possession, Scal is a decent option. And if you're the Lakers...you probably ditch Scal to help with Pierce or Ray. And I wouldn't be that surprised to see Scal knock down a wide open shot. Still put it at 1000:1 odds.

  • Thank you Eddie!
If we end up in a situation where Scal has to try a game winning 3 at the buzzer tonight, then may God help us all.  If it actually went in, I would poop myself like a lot of other people.  (not literally!)

While I don't see Scal hitting the game winning three, I wouldn't mind seeing him in 5-10 minutes of action.  I like him better than Williams at this point and I think he could do an OK job on Lamar Odom.

Scal end to end drive with a dunk in Kobe's face to win it.
Yup

And who would play Scal in the movie? Hollywood loves underdog sports stories.

OK, a guy can dream, can't he? Scal's going to be in uniform tonight and it would be pretty sweet if he contributes to a win given the chance.

He will likely see the floor at some point tonight though.  GO SCAL!  Go C's! 
What are the odds of 7 guys fouling out?
