The Matador(s)

Thanks for the laugh this morning. If I can offer a small adjustment. . .how about El Matador(s) instead?

I'll leave out the (s) though

Because then it should be “Los” and that would change the title.

I could

I went with “The Matador” over “El Matador” because “The” was more recent and probably more known. But since that this game was about Pau. I’ll use the Spanish name title.

Thanks,

I use movie titles for the Credits name now.

Oh, OK that’s a good idea. The original version (or any variation really) is fine with me. After thinking about Pau’s great return & last night’s game, the Matador title gave me a good laugh. Thanks.

This is a good link to last night's game too

“It’s unbelievable,” Joakim Noah said after the game. “There’s nobody you can really help off of. They just made it look really easy. It was like an exhibition out there tonight (Thursday). It felt like a varsity team compared to a JV team. I was tired as hell and I was looking around on the court and nobody from the Lakers even broke a sweat.”

Great link

I was wondering how the Bulls would feel after being caught in that storm called Los Lakers. It’s going to be a tall order for any team to beat the Lakers 4 out of 7 games (when they’re healthy, which is a huge variable).
