To take revenge on the Nets real-life woes, I turn to NBA Live 10 to play against adolescent chumps who pick front-runners like the Lakers, Cavs & Celts as their team to play against me in xbox live. True to my Net fandom, I play as the lowly 3 win ballclub, in hopes that I achieve a little satisfaction with beating an elite team that pounds us into the dust in real life.

Last night’s victim was the Celtics. I rallied back from an 8 pt deficit (with 5 min quarters, is actually a lot of ground to cover) to take the big W. The reaction I get from most players is that they abruptly quit the game early once they’ve realized that they’ve been punked by the last-place dynamo. Once I got up 3 with the ball in the final 17 secs of the 4th, my opponent drops the connection. I message him “gg” and go to bed with a smile on my face.

Too bad the only arena that my Nets play hard in is virtual.
