Charles Barkley's Ancestry 2010/11Playoff Edition: 7th Granny: He's Tyrone! (too)

Alright, last night's game got it started once again... with the Seventh Playoff Granny total/Second for Dway....Dywa...Dwyna....how do you spell his name, zkmavz? Ah, thank you.. Niiiiiceeee.

More may or may not come.

This clip aired first in 2008. If we take Charles at face value (who wouldn't?), scoring 45 against the Mavs = Mother of Chuck. Scoring 30 against the Mavs = Grandmother of Chuck. Pretty easy, right?

Just a reminder, this years regular season: 14 Grandmothers, 0 Mother. Incremental Progress, really.

Last year's regular season: 13 Grandmothers, 2 Mothers

Last year's playoffs: = 0 Granny, 0 Mother. Shame on you, Spurs, Shame on you.

2008/09 regular season: 23 Grandmothers, 0 Mother; Playoffs: 7 Grandmothers in 10 Games.

Of course, Rick Carlisle is a stats guy and a Defense Guy, too. So he'd like to create fewer Relatives for the Chuckster, mmkaay?

Unless the Trending continues, ofc.

mutha...

f00kin'

Rim.

...because this didn't happen often enough.

Charles Reaction is still no longer tbd:

Come back when/if another Ancestor of Charles will be anointed.

Ps: Dallas is 7:0 in the Playoffs when somebody scores 30+ against them. The Mavs were 10:4 in such Games in the Reg. Season this year. A big difference to 10:5 during the 2009/10 Regular Season...
