@Carl: I think the differences between LeBron and KG’s chalk toss are pretty well-documented at this point.

Also, I heard that the Cavs are also going to steal the Eastern Conference Champions routine from the Celts, too. What nerve, eh?

Phil Collins has an overabundance of street-cred. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XoLB_U0YPOg&feature=PlayList&p=C69B01061D2C836F&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=10

@ A U: False.

“Collins said that he is amused at the American ‘urban legend’ that resulted from this song. It had nothing at all to do with drowning. (or murder, or adultery or boating or any other thing) He said, although he really didn’t write it with anything in particular in mind, he was dealing with a recent divorce. He was angry. The drowning reference is obviously anger – “well, if you told me you were drowning, I would not lend a hand”. That is just referring to the explanation of how angry he is – he hates the person so much that he would ignore pleas for help. He did state that he had no specific event of any kind when he wrote this song.”

@Beezy: That’s your compelling argument? Phil Collins is cool because Ego Trip said so? I think I’ll stick with my ears on this one.

I’m also pretty sure that somebody cool probably used Collins as an ironic statement, but nobody got the joke. <3 phil collins ironyxcore

Black people LOVE Phil Collins, especially in New York. This is a fact.

Phil Collins is “very uncool”? Man, only someone REALLY uncool would dare say that. Phil Collins was granted a ‘ghetto pass’ years ago by Ego Trip, the foremost experts of Hip Hop Journalism. Its well known that Phil Collins music is respected by the “cool”, especially of the NBA.
Sorry Rob, I love the blog but know what you are talking about before you type it.
