    Panel 1 shows the artist’s lack of familiarity with basketball. Parker should be between Lini and the Jeffs’ No. 3 if the description is to make any sense. As it is, the Jefferson player appears oblivious to the fact his man is about to shoot. He doesn’t even know where his man is on the court.

    Why would the Jeff coach have a plan to shut down somebody who plays 2 minutes and scores four a game?

    By the way, I think the fact that P3 is a recycled P3 from the January 25 strip is just lazy and a bit disrespectful to the audience.

    Good call, kdizzle. “Lini got stuffed.” All Thorpalcholics should contemplate that notion.

    Kdizzle, I’m impressed on the recycling point. I thought you meant it was similar, but it’s the exact same drawing. Seems like cartoonist malpractice to me. How’d you figure out it was a repeat?

    Wow, everyone is on their game today. All good comments. In P1 it looks like number 3 is really going to block Parker. I mean if he was going towards Lini, that is the direction he should have been going. Also, where does number 23 come from? Anyway, again…nice comments by one and all.

    Lini just got a “facial” and once he got over the initial shock he really enjoyed it.

    Wow, they anticipated that Milford would try to shoot the ball. Excellent coaching!

    P3: The kid is yelling “FAG!” but it’s inclear if he is yelling it at Lini or at Moon.

    Was this take your child to work day at the artist’s shop? Who really drew this today-the kid from E-trade?

    Has anybody ever seen lines like that at the top of the key in P1? Maybe Milford is really in Europe…

    HooDad - I thought I had seen the kid with his hands glued to his face before so I checked back.

    Does anybody really say “stuffed” any more?
