I’d like to personally thank Melo’s People of Utah for supporting the cause and ordering a few hundred F-Kobe tees. Actually, it is more 4th & Forever’s People of Idaho who got the shirts and drove to SLC to sell said shirts in bars, parking lots, temples and dark alleys before Game 3. Jazz Fan, your support, efforts, faith and venom is appreciated…though, seemingly, ineffective. It’s like a bad vampire movie from the 80’s and no one can figure out Kobe’s weakness…somebody page the Frog Brothers.

In fact, Kobe is so cold-blooded, he took time in between series to do a “Here’s what I’d look like if I had my marriage to myself sealed in the Temple when I come to SLC to break your hearts Utah Jazz fans” photoshoot. No one knows what the hell this shoot was about, but for the 801 devout. This was a slap in the face, akin to Jordan’s slapping away Bryant Russell’s weak hand check in ‘98, but Kobe just punched an entire fanbase and faith in the mouth. And may lead the sweep as well. Ugh.

At least the few fans who didn’t show up in the correct Operation Fuck Kobe wear did show some creativity. Well done, our white top hats off to you both.

I believe I heard, but am too lazy to research, that teams are 88-0 in NBA playoff series after taking 3-0 lead. I’m not putting nails in Utah’s coffin, here…only saying they have their work cut out for them. Someday, much like the whole 16 vs. 1 seed in the NCAAB tourney, that unblemished record will fall. It has to. Doesn’t it?

In the meantime, Jazz Fan, Phoenix has not simply finished nailing, but they’ve also buried you. Arizona-area Fuck Kobe orders started rolling in last night after Steve got Nashty all over the Spurs. Does that dude bleed everytime they play? If it happens, we look forward to Nash directing Operation Fuck Kobe Part 2, and hope, like is so often untrue in life, that the sequel is better than the original. Go Suns.

I mean go Jazz. You can do it.
