Dont know if there is an official thread for the NBA, but DISCUSS!


O'neal for Marion.
I think it's an even deal. Raptors need to run more. O'neal is one slow ass.

[tough]

solid trade for both, heat needs a decent big and raps need to run

CHANDLER for WILCOX and Joe Smith

[LC21]

That is soo GROSS. Chandler for wilcox and smith? That's pretty much a give away. Sigh, i dont know why they even did this trade, they were doing so well with chandler in the lineup.

[fuhkyu]

Chandler too expensive I think he making 12$million this year?


O'neal for Marion.
I think it's an even deal. Raptors need to run more. O'neal is one slow ass.

The raptors got marcus banks too.

[411ken]

Great move by the raptors! They get faster and if it all doesn't work out then they can choose to not resign Marion and have 17m in Cap room.

[fuhkyu]

Correction.. all they had to do was play the clippers...

Well that helped too.. but Porter's style of play was a lot slower than what that team is use to.. half court offense etc. He tried too hard to incorporate Shaq and the rest of the team couldn't follow suit. Even still with the newly revived "run and gun" offense Shaq did pretty good.

[tough]

you cant play half court when you have barbosa, he lives for the break

[Qmx323]

They don't call him the brazilian blur for no reason, the raptors trade is great, o'neal and bosh cant play at the same time cuz they both play in the post, plus Andrea Bargnani is coming on strong lately. also now the heat have a legitimate post scorer in O'Neal. The hornets trade... meh, wilcox is alright but joe smith is just probably gonna be waived for cap space

[rickross888]

we'll see how the "new" raptors are when they play LBJ and the cavs tonight. LeBron is a beast

what you guys think of the trade between the Lakers and the Bobcats, Radmanovic for stache-man Morrison and Shannon Brown?
LAKERS #1 BABYY!!!! KOBE KOBE!! loll

[tough]

lebron almost had a triple double, but raps did have bosh

back to the d'antoni Suns: all offense, no defense

[hotjoint]

Chandler trade was recinded :lol. Marion for O'neal was a good trade for both teams. Wonder where Amare will end up. He's the biggest named rumor

I have a feeling he'll end up staying in phoenix for a while.. back to the system he plays best in; the run and gun offense. Shaq's contract is up after this year i believe i wonder if they'll resign him

Hes pretty much staying in PHX, Kerr wants to see what the new coach can do for the rest of the season

[cls55coupe]

cavs are workin on gettin jamison from the wizards... that team would be soo stacked. phx should jus keep amare and build around him, dont know what they are thinkin .. he could easily dropin 25 n 10 when shaq leaves

[cls55coupe]

With shaq there he's putting up better numbers than that.. 42 and 11 tonight

i meant he could be averaging 25 n 10. yea nothing against shaq but i think both the suns and heat would be better teams rite now if the marion shaq trade didnt happen. man if the suns had kept joe johnson too, that team would be insane

[Alpine50]

how about the all star weekend?what you guys think??
i liked it personally was going for howard again but that last dunk killed him
dunked 12 feet with eeeezzzz

[fuhkyu]

Quite a few trades too place today..

Rafer Alston part of a 3 team deal sent to Orlando

Larry Hughes sent to Knicks

Chris Wilcox to the Knicks

a couple of trades but not headlining news on espn nba

[411ken]

Hahaha, larry hughes has a great agent..isn't he due for 24 mill for 2 more years or so....and all these moves are being made to make room for one of the biggest Free agent market there is in a while...can't wait to see what will happen in 2010... Can you see LBJ as a knick??

I don't know if LBJ will be a Knick, if anything I can see him becoming a Net (because of Jay Z). When exactly does VC's contract expire? Could them trying to ship him off have to do with trying to make a push for lebron in 2010?

[411ken]

I think there's a chance he will go to knicks.. bigger market, etc etc...let's just say the Cavs better hope to win a championship now with james because if/when he leaves, they'll be back to nothing haha...

[tough]

what are you talking about they got big Z thats all they need

[cls55coupe]

what are you talking about they got big Z thats all they need

Big Z is the real king of cleveland, he's been there his whole career

[rickross888]

Cece Sebathia is Lebron's really good friend and he signed with the yankees, word is that he's convinced lebron to come to the knicks in 2010. Not many big trades yesterday. I'm glad Amare stayed in pheonix cuz he rips it up there. Rumors are that shaq wants to come back to LA to finish off his career. Dunno how that will pan out with Gasol already there.

[411ken]

Big Z lol.

I wouldn't mind seeing Lebron in knicks at all.. especially with the knicks Cap room by that time, they can afford another star as well.... Shaq should go back to the magics instead...Dwight and him haha

Amare out with an eye injury and may miss the rest of the season.

Anyone else see the Cavs/Bucks hilights the other nite when LBJ got 56? Charlie V tried to choke Big Z lol...

[bbbj]

Charlie V is a douche.. someone should have ran in and punched him out.

[cls55coupe]

^ +1, dudes got no eyebrows either. boston phx game should b a good one today, garnett is out for 3 weeks ... see if boston can hold the top spot while hes gone

[rickross888]

Charlie V is a douche.. someone should have ran in and punched him out.
haha i agree. the guy seems to have no hair at all

a lot of injuries to key players right now though: bynum for the lakers, manu for the spurs, garnett for the celtics, amare for the suns just to name a few.
lakers are still gonna keep it rollin tho no doubt :bigthumb:

[411ken]

Who else cannot stand Paul Pierce? damn, he acts like he is the best hahaha..Allen and Garnett should leave the team and see how he does....ok end of rant hehe...

Lakers will win it this year! Lakers/Cavs finals.

[bbbj]

Yeah LAKERS FTW! Why can't the suns play defense. fuck. I don't believe Cavs will make it to finals.. Lakers and Boston again.

[411ken]

The cavs are capable of making it to the finals especially with Mo running the point.. I also wouldn't mind seeing lakers/celtics again and lakers coming on top this time around and shut up the self-proclaimed best player in the world pierce.

[cls55coupe]

the lakers are coming out of the west for sure. the east is between either the cavs or celtics. i think the cavs jus need to stay healthy throughout the playoffs and it'll be a lebron n kobe showdown in the finals

[411ken]

^Wouldn't that be nice to see LBJ vs Kobe...lol.. but I'd rather see Lakers/Celtics again just for the sake of seeing the Celts lose.. My boys Kobe and Bynum will shut them up =D

[hotjoint]

Lakers gonna win it all in the end :) I would love to see a lakers/celtics rematch but Lebron vs kobe would be better. Boston vs Cleveland in the semi finals will be monster

[fuhkyu]

The C's still going strong without KG.. and how about Devin Harris' halfcourt game winner?

[tough]

rondo is sick thats why there ripping it

[hotjoint]

that was a crazy shot by harris

[rickross888]

yea harris' shot was nice. one of the few close games of the night, a lot of blowouts.

suns are playing the bobcats...chance for another 140pt game?
det vs mia, por vs hou and dal vs sas should be some good games. lakers and cavs should grab W's and stay atop their conference

[411ken]

I wish the suns kept bell/diaw instead of getting richardson. That guy is such a hog that it ruins it...i mean if they just wanted to go back to the run and gun style then keeping bell would have been nice as he can play D rather than just having richardson whom cannot play Defense at all.

[hotjoint]

haha yeah its a known fact that richardson can't play D

[fuhkyu]

Totally agree, the only thing was Diaw wasn't performing as well as he had been in the past few seasons. Bell has never really been an offensive threat but he's one of the better one on one defenders in the league imo.

Richardson hasn't even been putting up impressive offensive numbers, Barbosa has been lighting it up recently though. Possible 6th man of the year award again?

[411ken]

I think Bell and Diaw's game got hurt because of their half court game unlike before where everyone runs and they can get open right away. Bell is pretty darn good with the 3 and plays solid D. I mean, they were doing pretty good before but just needed a center. What I would have personally done is kept the core (Nash,Bell,Amare,Marion,Barbosa,Diaw) and gotten a center that can rebound. They didn't need a scoring center then cuz they can score 100+ each game...They could have traded for Varejao or something.

Anyways, i'm still lakers but I do want to see Nash go deep in the playoffs.

[fuhkyu]

Marbury Waived!! Looks to sign with Boston Celtics.

OTOH, if Shaq and Amare are the lineup, where would Diaw fit?

[fuhkyu]

OTOH, if Shaq and Amare are the lineup, where would Diaw fit?

He basically came off when either shaq or amare came off, he was basically a role player after shaq was part of the suns. Diaw is a versatile player though, he can play inside and outside so realistically he could play the 3

[hotjoint]

Marbury Waived!! Looks to sign with Boston Celtics.


http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=3931801

sweet, starbury finally done with the knicks, must have been nice sitting there collecting his 21 mil for the time being

[411ken]

I had a feeling Marbury will go to the Celts as they traded Cassell away at the deadline. I think he will actually try hard as KG is on the team..

As for Diaw..the guy said it all..he would pretty much be the 6th man/7th man. After they traded they for Jrich, i knew their D will suffer.. I mean, Nash/Barbosa/Bell/Hill/Diaw/Amare/Shaq/Barnes IS as pretty good team on paper. I think them doing the halfcourt offense for the sake of shaq hurt them. but now they are running, I wonder if Kerr wishes he should've kept them.

[HonestTea]

Technically the Suns would've had 2 championships by now..just extreme bad luck and gay shit happened...

Nash-Gash by Cheap Shop Bob

and

Amare/Diaw stepping inside the court that got them suspended for a game

arghh Steve Nash's window of opportunity is closing FAST..

I think that happened in the same year.. but I agree, that they would have two championships if the owner didn't fucked up the team. Not signing Joe Johnson, trading away picks for money. That's gay ass shit. They could have had Rondo with one of their picks, instead they have Nash running the team for 35+ mins a season and tiring out at the playoffs.

[411ken]

^lol. I was thinking the same thing when I read it..as I've mentioned all they needed was a centre when they had everyone playing..now they are f'd and will not go far imo even tho i want them to cuz for the sake of nash. they used to share the ball well but now they are full of ballhogs..

as for Rondo, who knew he would be playing well.. but i guess playing with the celts helped him develop faster.

On a side note, to this day, i'm still hoping we'd get another shot at an NBA team but it doesn't look like it will happen at all =(.

[HonestTea]

give me a break guys, it was 3am when I was typing that lol

I can't really remember what incident, probably the year Amare got injured, the suns were going to win that year as well..

[rickross888]

Lakers are just rolling right now. if only they'd go undefeated the rest of the way and tie MJ's bulls with the best record in NBA history.

can't wait to see LBJ and the Cavs bounce back from their loss tonight to play the Spurs tomorrow night!

[411ken]

give me a break guys, it was 3am when I was typing that lol



Haha fine... but it was still funny lol.

I watched the Lakers/Phoenix game and mannnn did this game show how weak the bench is for the Suns..Someone should teach them how to play D..like seriously.. they can still play the run and gun but they also need to play defense hard rather than trading baskets..because once they miss a few shots in a row, they'll be down right away as they can't guard anyone. HELL even Mbenga was scoring,blocking shots..lol

[hotjoint]

lakers :)

[411ken]

Lakers are kicking ass indeed!! imagine them with a healthy Bynum just in time for the playoffs!

On another note, did anyone see LBJ get worked on last night by the rockets.. Imagine being guarded by Artest/Battier all night hahaha.

[daval]

I hope an underdog will win the Champ, hopefully Spurs or Celtics~

lakers +200
celtics +225
cavs +450

that year when they had:

[LC21]

Tell me why they didnt advance to the finals then?

Probably because they have no inside presence?
Shaq is still doing it for them....

I have a feeling Amare gon' opt out end of the year.

[ChaKo]

Cause if you look at the odds of the Lakers winning the Champ, Celtics and Spurs are the underdog~

i would hardly call them underdogs.. contenders at the very least. the celts are still the stronger team imo, once garnett returns.

Inside presence or not, phx will never get to the finals as long the spurs are here. Phx rely solely on offense.
There game play : Fast breaks, and 7 secs or nothing/shaq rule.

So take the offensive away from phx, and they are nothing

[goo3]

Anyone else notice their defense, although still bad, is way better than previous years? I mean at least they try to play D, right :lol

[hotjoint]

damn lakers on a 2 game losing streak, can't believe pheonix beat them like that without nash and amarie. Shaq has been tearing it up lately

[411ken]

I don't care if the lakers go on a 2 game losing streak, that means they need to work on little things and they are good to go. And every team knows that once Bynum gets back into the mix, it will be a different story..

I'm glad to see Shaq playing well again, must be healthy again. and as for Amare, I could care less if I see him gone. He is such a hog and can't play D. Maybe he needs a tougher coach that will bring out the best of him. I do know that he will be great once he matures up.

[411ken]

Off topic: but does any of you know where I can find the Yellow/Gold or Purple Kobe jersey? I have the white but I can't find the others. also, do you know a place that sells authentic ones?

[hotjoint]

I've ebayed all my jerseys. Saved a ton and found some rare authentics and just got lucky that noone else bid on them :)

[411ken]

ya, I have most my jerseys from ebay too but I thought it would be nice to browse authentic stuff here haha... although i might end up spending more...!

Go Lakers! =)

[Not really racist!]

hopefuly lakers have that spark this year and bring it home

[fuhkyu]

Joe Smith signing wit the cavs and drew gooden signing with the spurs.
Shaq vs D12 was a good match up tonight, they both went at each other pretty hard. Good to see that Shaq can still throw it down.

[411ken]

Did any of you see Stan Van Gundy call out Shaq for trying to pull a flop on D12? He said something about being a man.... Shaq reacted and said Stan was a nobody to him and just a front runner (coaching only good teams).. stupid van gundy, shaq has never done it before everrr and did it once and calls him out? stupid i tell ya.

[feelthesunrise]

d12 is still just a kid and has much to learn from the real superman.

[fuhkyu]

shaq is 36 approaching 37 and puts up better numbers than almost every other center in the league. he truly is the real superman, i'd like to see D12 put up those kind of numbers in 14 years... not knocking D12 and his game, he is for sure the next dominant big man in the game but he still has a lot to learn.

[hotjoint]

yeah shaq has been ripping it up lately

[bbbj]

Sad to see that Phoenix isn't in the playoffs..

[feelthesunrise]

as of right now they aren't but they are only a game or two back of the mavs. if they can string together a couple of winning streaks, things could be very different.

[rickross888]

seeds 3-9 in the west are very interchangeable. a team that loses a few games can see themselves out of a playoff spot and if teams put up a winning streak they can go into or move up to a higher seed.

i think denver won't be able to hang on. NO and POR are going to take the 3rd and 4th seeds for homecourt along with LAL and SAS(safe bet that they'll hold on to the top 2 seeds in the west). the jazz i feel will be safe to hold out a spot in the playoffs. it will be between the nuggets, suns, rockets and mavs to fight for the final 3 spots in the west.

in the east, the bucks will probably slip up and lose the 8th spot which will be taken over by the bulls or the nets if they come up with a good run(i think the bulls will pull through).

[hotjoint]

it'll be interesting to see who makes the playoffs this year from #'s 4 - 8 in each conference

[411ken]

I hope Phoenix slips up to 8th. That way, it will be lakers vs. suns in the first round.. that would be sweet to watch...it will be tough for the suns but I can see the mavs having the best chance of having a losing slump that allows the suns to move up... we'll see...

also, Amare is out for the year, no matter if they make the playoffs.

[hotjoint]

damn lakers lost :(. detroit beat orlando :)

[rickross888]

^ i know fuck, they've lost quite a bit in the last lil bit.

[rickross888]

tough back-to-back for the lakers starting tonight with houston and then tomorrow against the spurs. lakers are going to play 11 of their remaining 19 games away from home :eek:.

cavs have most of their remaining games at home, where they only have 1 loss, so they might have the upper hand over the celtics and lakers in clinching the best record in the NBA. cavs are going to need home court advantage all the way if they want to win the championship. not to say the celtics or lakers don't need it but of the 3 teams the cavs need home court the most. the celtics have like half their games on the road and half of them at home. the lakers swept the cavs in the season series so the cavs definitely need to have more wins than the lakers and can't tie the lakers for the best record in order to have home court.

[feelthesunrise]

lebron got his 3rd straight triple double tonight. looks like he the front runner for mvp rite now.

my vote still goes to d. wade. and my suns are all but finished now. they just can't get it together when it matters most... wtf!

[rickross888]

d-wade isn't going to win it even though he's having a monster season. it's going to be between lebron and kobe since their teams are atop the NBA. i think lebron's gonna take the MVP this year though as much as i love kobe. like the TNT crew said on tv yesterday most of the MVP winners come from #1 and #2 teams and only once or something like that has it ever gone to a #4 seeded team. never has anyone won the MVP with their team 3rd in their division, which is the spot the Heat are in right now. even if they move up behind the Magic I doubt d-wade's going to win it. plus, lebron and kobe put up about the same numbers and everything as d-wade does, but their teams have better records, which means they are better lol - in terms of how the MVP award is judged and given.

[hotjoint]

totally agree, its either gonna be kobe or lebron, would love to have wade get it but doesnt look like it'll happen

[MR_BIGGS]

Lebron's winning it. Kobe ain't getting anything.

[feelthesunrise]

you're probably right that wade won't get it. But just in my point of view, wade has the worst supporting cast of the 3. Yet he still puts up monster numbers almost willing his team to unlikely victories.

[411ken]

I root for Kobe but DWade does deserve it this year indeed. Remember, they won 15 games last year! to now.... Who knows how well the Cavs would have done if they didn't have Mo Williams this year..

[rickross888]

both the cavs and lakers won tonight.
great game from lebron racking up another triple-double
lakers gotta step it up though and learn to have that "killer instinct" and close out games. last couple games they've had double digit leads late in a game and let the other team get closer than they should have. lakers are off on a key 7 game road trip. they should be able to win all the games :eek5x:. it's going to be a test though and they have to take it a game at a time and stay focused since the cavs are going to have a lot of home games in which they are pretty unstoppable, along with a 0.5 game advantage over the lakers as of tonight. GO LAKERS! :D
what's the status on bynum? is he gonna be back anytime soon? :confused: they'll need him to strengthen up the middle and solidify their D.

[411ken]

If I were them, I would rest bynum until the playoffs. They dont' need him right now and risk losing him again if rushed. It would be nice to have homecourt advantage all the way through but I know and i'm sure you all know that the lakers can win on the road. Now add a healthy bynum in the playoffs = Champions.

[LC21]

I dont know why but i'm starting to be one of those kobe haters. =P
I wouldn't be surprised if they won the championship this year, kobe will take the mvp again if they did =P..

But i'm still having hopes for my LaBon james.

you're probably right that wade won't get it. But just in my point of view, wade has the worst supporting cast of the 3. Yet he still puts up monster numbers almost willing his team to unlikely victories.

And wade is getting those monster numbers are because he's making up for everything their team lacks in. Lebron would probably be leading scorer and top 5 assist leaders if they didn't have mo wills.
Same goes for Kobe, when they didn't have any supporting cast Kobe was the leading scorer.

ANd i hope The mav's jumps to 9th place so the suns can contend again. Mav's are getting boring now, bunch of old hags(no offense) that are boring to watch. If they didn't have Terry it'd be over by now =P. They rely too much on shooting, get's boring watching that stuff.

[wuuhoo]

I dont know why but i'm starting to be one of those kobe haters. =P
I wouldn't be surprised if they won the championship this year, kobe will take the mvp again if they did =P..

But i'm still having hopes for my LaBon james.

Wade's a BEAST ! he has really improved

Although Im a kobe's fan, I think James will take MVP this year.

Hopefully Bynum comes back soon. I can smell a championship for the lakers woot !!:)

[fuhkyu]

Arenas came back for the first time this season, 15 points and 10 assists.. not flashy numbers but at least he's back

[LC21]

arenas wont be like the old arenas...

after surgery it's done =P you just wont see the same groove anymore =(

[wuuhoo]

man, what the hell are with the lakers right now?! 2 in a row. AND why is it ALWAYS charlotte !

fuck. They better get back on track, if they want to compete with cleveland :mad:

[fuhkyu]

arenas wont be like the old arenas...

after surgery it's done =P you just wont see the same groove anymore =(

I dunno man look at Amare he puts up impressive numbers..

The Celtics are going to "shut down" KG for the last few games of the season and try and get him as much rest for the post season as they can. They can't catch Cleveland and need him to be in the best shape as possible when playoffs arrive.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4030533

[PK-EK]

Bron Bron going to get MVP for sure.

And yah, Celtics is down because of Garnett's injury, we will see what's going on in the playoff.

[hotjoint]

man, what the hell are with the lakers right now?! 2 in a row. AND why is it ALWAYS charlotte !

:werd: tough loss for the lakers, they always have trouble with the bobcats for some reason. Must be the tight D that Raja Bell plays on kobe

"i think he's a good defender. i don't want to understate or take away his abilities as a defender. I can score on him anytime i want to."

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

poor Iverson on the motherfucking bench right first time in his life, what a insult, he has back injury as well.

Screw piston, he definitely needs to switch team next year. Last season with denver he was still putting up 30points each game split 50/50 with melo

now this season he is getting owned

sigh....poor A.I, one of my favorite player


screw celtics, never a fan with either one of them. Go Cavs!!!!


does Jordan owns Bobocats? he was watching the bob vs lakers game yesterday

[rickross888]

yea Jordan is part owner of the Bobcats

Hmm have you ever thought that Iverson is a shoot first pass second person? Not to mention he is an aging superstar, I'm not taking away from his talent but the pistons record is better without Iverson in the line up than with him in it...

Yes Jordon is part owner of the Bobcats, and screw you for hating on the celtics!;)

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

indeed he is, perhaps staed in Phily for a decade made him that person where had to do everything himself. Putting up 30 points a night every single game

sigh i just hope next season he will do better, i mean last season's performance vs this season is just wayyyyy too much differences.

I understand the dude is turning 34, but kobe, grant hill, big 3s from the Celtics aint all that young either.

I Like garnet over duncan

but sth about pierce i just cannot like! the way he plays...and his voice sounds like raspy tin can...cant understand the words coming out his mouth lol. Ray is alrit...again not feeling his style.

AI is ganster on the floor man, he brought hip hop and playing ball with style. Sad to see him going down like this, vs last season.

[411ken]

I myself is a huge AI fan since his philly days..the problem with AI is..he is a scorer not a passer...He should go back to Philly and team up with Brand, Iggy and co. The fans loved him there and i'm sure they wouldn't mind seeing him back..

And Yes, I agree Paul Pierce is overrated..he didn't help himself by stating he is the best player in the world (Sports Illustrated)I hope they get knocked and i'd love to see his face then haha.

And Jordan should play again! hahaha...imagine the bobcats player practicing with him, etc... that would be a dream for some of them.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

glad to see another AI fan

just watch his old clips, in his prime the dude was unstoppable. Yup philiy fans LOVES HIM, he accompolished a lot back in Phil

i still think him and Melo did pretty well last season, just their whole defence sucked last year.This year they improved a lot, in terms of rebounding, blocks. Anderson aka birdman is crazy...


Cleveland baby!!! paul pierce...no comment
the way i see this is that Celtics is stacked
KG, ray, paul, marbury (same year as AI 96 and ppl had faith in him), eddie is a pretty good shooter, rondo is a pretty good PG. Without either one of them the big 3, they aint anywhere near the championship.

[LC21]

AI's done. He's not a good fit for philly, philly's a young team none of them will prosper if AI's on that team again. Same thing for Detroit, such a bad fit.

And i hope cleveland win it all the way, Lebron is the real mvp, he aint no underdog anymore.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

:(:(:( sniff sniff for AI




ya i wish Lebron wins this year

[XplodeTheBass]

all i gotta say is.... CAVS ARE TAKING IT THIS YEAR GURANTEEEEDDDD

[MR_BIGGS]

Lebron's taking the MVP

AI is good, but he takes a team first mentailty away from the Pistons with him needing 30 shots a game...He's a bench player on that team! Lake show sucks

[hotjoint]

Lakers vs Cavs in the finals. Lakers in 5. I'm a bigtime A.I. fan Mugen. I feel bad for him as well but he doesnt fit in with the pistons system. He needs to go to a team where he can be their 1 or 2 option cuz he needs to get his shots/touches. Don't worry bro, He'll be on a different team next year and will ri[ it up again :)

[XplodeTheBass]

Cavs take lakes in 6 if thats the finals

[rickross888]

so the playoffs have finally started. it was great to see the celtics lose game 1 at home to the bulls :D. rose put up great numbers and played a heck of a game. lakers and cavs took care of business at home and look to be in great shape to meet in the finals. d-wade struggled in game 1 vs the hawks...goes to show u why he shouldn't be mvp loll jk he's a great player, just not as good as lebron and kobe.

what are your predictions for first round series'?

in the west i'm going with:
- lakers sweep the jazz (5 games at most)
- nuggets in 6 vs hornets
- spurs in 7 vs mavs
- blazers in 7 vs rockets

in the east i'm going with:
- cavs in 5 vs pistons
- heat in 6 vs hawks
- magic in 6 vs 76ers
- bulls in 7 vs celtics (celtics be gone! lol)

[wuuhoo]

and I cant really see Boston losing lol. SO...

boston in 7 over bulls

[daval]

Well i think Nuggets is real strong after watching yesterday's game.

East is definitely Cavaliers' turf, hopefully win the Champ:thumbsup:

[411ken]

- lakers beats Jazz in 5
- nuggets beats hornets in 6
- Mavs beat Spurs in 6
- Rockets beat Blazers in 5

- cavs in 5 vs pistons
- Hawks in 5 over Heat
- magic in 6 vs 76ers
- Celtics in 6 over Bulls

This are my prediction.. Let's see who makes the most correct ones

im very worried about AI, dont wonna see him retire like that yet...


go DENVER GO!!!

Smith is the shit, birdman is just INSANE!!

[daval]

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet, got -11 Cavs, -6.5 1H, and -6 LAL 1H.

any cappers here?

[MR_BIGGS]

Lakeshow will lose to the Cavs if they make it that far...

[411ken]

Cavs will lose to the Lakers if they make it that far.

I think this is the teams' starting 5/.. not to sure about the cavs.. I take the lakers 5 any day and I take their bench over the cavs as well. I do hope it's the cavs/lakers finals as that will be a classic and I don't mind both teams.

Bynum-Ilgauskas
Gasol- Varejao
Ariza-James
Bryant-West
Fisher- Williams

so much nba and hockey to watch for the next few months :)

[FatalCloud]

did anyone watch the lakers/jazz game 4? i never laughed so hard for a longtime, the woman announcer after kobe did a crossover and made a tough jumpshot, she alluded to jordan, which utah jazz player did he do that to, so famous for? she said craig ehlo? i was like wtf?? do you even know basketball? a minute later, the guy announcer corrected her...guess what he said? he's like no... craig ehlo? you're talking about the jazz right? 'pauses' ....naw it was brad russell.

brad russell?????!!!!!!! it was bryon russell...oh man hahahahaha

[daval]

yep the woman braodcaster just didn't know basketball enough.

Well, any cappers here.

Im on Bos +3 and Cavs -8.5 today.

haha yea man that was so funny. craig ehlo lol seriously...that shot that jordan took on him was going across the lane, pulling up and then he jumped up in the air with a fist pump celebrating the win. i didn't notice that the guy said brad russell though, i just assumed he said bryon russell haha cuz i was paying attention to the game.

The Bulls/Celtics game was GREAT!!! As long as Pierce doesn't make it past the 1st round, I'd be a happy man. I'd like to hear the self proclaimed best player make an excuse that he didn't have Garnett LOL..

[MR_BIGGS]

Celtics will win. So is Garnett done all playoffs? Or he could be back?

[FatalCloud]

as a laker fan, yeah fine we beat utah in five games but i'm more than worried about (not necessarily the defence) giving up the big leads in most of the games they play. it will haunt us one of these days like last year in the Finals. Also, is it just me or Andrew Bynum looks so freaking lost, he's useless, and is it just his damn babyface or he always has this look like he doesn't really care.

[hotjoint]

shit, yesterday bulls/celts game was nuts, fuckin paul pierce with clutch shots and then fuckin brad miller misses his ft. I really wanted chicago to win :(. Glad the spurs got knocked out, i hate the spurs :)

The kid hasn't played pretty much the whole season. I don't see him as "useless" as he will come handy if they were to play Houston next or even Portland. They don't even need him to score, just have to play some D and a big presence inside.


And I hope the Bulls win game 6, and have a great game on game 7.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

WOOT denver won


blow out in game 5

58 fucking points, tied with NBA history biggest point lead since 1958



fuck NO, smith is crazy when he is on fire


Chris anderson = next gen dennis rodman. The guy blocks on one hand , runs back gets the rebound and dunks it in. crazy guy


i love denver

[rickross888]

wow seriously the bulls vs. celtics series has come close to giving me a heart attack every single game. not complaining at all though.
GO BULLS YOU CAN DO IT!

[wuuhoo]

^ that was an intense game.
Everytime Allen shoots, I hold my breathe, hoping he wont score.
Hate when gets the ball, so scary lol

[G-spec]

Jesus fuckin Shuttlesworth!

he got game.....
you guys might wanna tape game 7 of bulls and celtics, shit is gonna be a classic..
the game tonight was already an instant classic, I cant wait for game 7

Ben Gordon is still in my top 3 favorite players right next to Chris Paul and Gilbert Arenas though, but he fouled out like an idiot when they needed him most.


speaking of Chris Paul, the Nuggets just plain and simple BEAT THE SHIT out of him the whole series, I'm pretty choked and got no respect for the Nuggets, they didnt have to resort to playing dirty to win the series, they're clearly the better team....
whatever... at the end of the day Chris Paul will without a doubt go down in history as the greatest point guard to ever play the game.

[LC21]

Chris paul is done. He reached his peak last year.
I hope denver see the lakers for western finals!

[JulyZerg]

Chris paul is done. He reached his peak last year.

really? LOL :haha::haha::haha::haha: this is pretty funny :rofl:

His...peak...? really? or is it some kind of joke? hes only 24 LOL

look at his stats this year and last year...Hes improved in all of his stats..

let's debug your statement now, shall we? "CP3 reached his peak last year" then what do you call this year? his Peak^2?

[Alpine50]

lol^^^^ his peak
i think bulls can take this, going for them screw celtics this year

[Not really racist!]

epic game so far

bulls v celtics

bulls will take it!

[Fafine]

BULLS FTW! although if celtics had KG playing, bulls probably wouldn't have made it this far.


noah is tard

[Alpine50]

damn wish bulls took it what ever

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

go denver go motherfuckersss


:thumbsup:

[Kapo]

anyone watched KG's "Bully video" on youtube?
i know all the sports players do some trash talks
but not harsh like this.

[Kapo]

OOh and I'd say Rajon Rondo for this year spotlight!
He knew his weakeness (shooting) and practiced so much now he can shoot pretty well.

[411ken]

OOh and I'd say Rajon Rondo for this year spotlight!
He knew his weakeness (shooting) and practiced so much now he can shoot pretty well.

I agree that it has improved but I'm sure every coach is more than willing to gamble and have Rondo beat them with a jumpshot rather than pierce,allen,kg.

I hope ATL knocks out the celts too. They have a pretty good team so I just hope they take it to them like last year..and have the motivation from last year's defeat as wel

[FatalCloud]

ATL is playing lebron james and the cavs, why are you talking about the celtics

[rickross888]

lol maybe he's assuming that the hawks will beat the cavs and that the celtics will beat the magic, leading to the hawks and celtics meeting up in the eastern conference finals.

[Not really racist!]

hope magic destroys the celtics

[hotjoint]

bulls gave it their all, didnt get to watch much of the miami vs atl game. Cavs vs ATL should be good

I'm not saying that CP3 has peaked or is on a plateau in terms of production, but if you look at many careers, their production rises quickly, hits a peak at 24-26 and follows a slightly declining plateau until the big slide ensues. It's actually worth taking a look at it sometimes. There are many that don't fit this mold, but it looks like most consistent minute guys do.

[kobefans]

GO ROCKETS GO!!!!!!

[Fafine]

fuck that shit kobe the rapist all the wayyy!

[rickross888]

lakers started out lethargic and looked like it for most of the game. pau didn't make his mid-range shots especially those right around the free throw line. the rest of the team weren't hitting their shots either (ariza, odom, vujacic). bynum did well in the minutes he played, but phil jackson chose to limit his minutes in the 2nd half... credit to the rockets though, but despite how badly lakers played tonight, i expect them to come out strong game 2 and still take this series.

thank god celtics lost to the magic tonight...the fact that the magic gave up their 28pt lead when the game seemed like it was out of reach would've been unfathomable. 3 more games for the magic to win to finally knock those celtics out, can't wait!

[Synaptik]

yao was awesome tonight. his dedication to the game is amazing.

[411ken]

ATL is playing lebron james and the cavs, why are you talking about the celtics

lol, my fault.. I had the matchup mixed up.


As for the games tonight, I was happy that the celts lost.. Even though the magics almost blew that 26 point lead lol.. The way I see it, if the bulls who had a young/inexperienced team took them to game 7, there's no way in hell they would beat the magics/cavs/lakers/denver(the way they are playing lately is great)..

As for the lakers game, it sucked that the lakers lost but watching Yao's passion to stay in the game is remarkable.. he was tearing up in the tunnel when stretching....


One more thing.. "The King" LeBron James was named MVP!!! 3rd youngest player to do so.. He deserved it.. actually they all deserved it (lbj,kobe,dwade). We are all Witnesses.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

lebron definitely deserves the MVP, crazy passer and rebounder...hence the block shots as well


yayyy denver playing tonight, smoke the dallas


melo with his jump shots, suppose to represent the next gen jordan :p
nene's inside game aint bad
martin is alrit...
JR has crazy fire power when he is playing it right
Anderson - i fucking love this guy, the new gen of dennis rodman. Lots energy...
carter- decent point guard
And billups of course
great line up
kleza can hit some 3s

[411ken]

Dallas sucks.. they should trade away Dirk or he should ask for one. I like Jkidd as a purepoint but they overpaid for him by trading harris.

And I don't know about you guys but I would LOVE to see Lakers/Cavs finals. Imagine Kobe/LeBron head to head...omg..and in HD

[hotjoint]

lakers lost game 1 but they'll come back, they had a bad game like every team has every now and then. Good to see Orlando beat boston. Cavs will destory ATL and I don't think Dallas has a chance with denver.

Lakers VS Nuggets in west final
Cavs VS Magic in east final

Lakers VS Cavs in finals, lakers in 6 (I'm only being nice cuz I think lakers can sweep the cavs)

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

its been done b4

just youtube


Artest back when he was with the pacer vs piston ben wallace

HUGEEE brawl, one of the bigest brawl in NBA audience


with piston players, as well as the fans. Fans were throwing chairs, water botle, pop corns, and gang up on Pacers players...it was nuts

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

hell i could careless Cavs, Lakers, Magic, Denvers wins this series.


All great teams with great athlets


Rockets......average team without tracey...hell i dont even like tracey..the dude has some fucked up slanted eyes. one looking at the right one looking at the left.


Boston is just pure thumbs down except KG

[rickross888]

yea man of course i know that lol. stephen jackson, ron artest, rasheed, ben tons of players got suspended and fined. i watched that game, i still remember that night. artest wrecked havoc with his punches...BEAST. i just meant to say that kobe shouldn't mess with him, since it wouldn't turn out very nice...

[rickross888]

damn both fisher and alston are suspended for game 3

In the beginning of the season anyone could have told you that it's going to be Lakers and Celtics in the final again....now that KG is out..its going to be Lakers and Cavs in the final...

Derek Fisher is an idiot..maybe not as big an idiot as Rafer..but nonetheless a bonehead play to lean into that pick....

Houston won't win the series..but it will be interesting....CAVS all the way.

“If that was me throwing the elbow at Kobe, first of all, I would’ve hurt Kobe way more than he hurt me,” said Artest, who scored 25 points in Game 2. “I probably would’ve knocked him out with the same force he used against me. That’s why I’m not going to throw an elbow at somebody’s head. It’s dangerous. That goes to show me, that if Kobe hits me with an elbow, I can just get hit.”

wtf....yeah we know you're a thug artest but for once in your life, talk with some sense. once when i was playing bball in my neighborhood...blahblahblahblahblahblah.....

[rickross888]

RIP Chuck Daly

Its unfortunate that yao will b out for the rest of the playoffs, announced today due to a fracture on his left foot. Lake show gotta stay sharp nonetheless and take a stranglehold on this series tomorrow to take a 3-1 lead back to LA for a closeout game.

Melo hit a big shot after the bump by wright. Lesson to learn: never stop playin until u hear a whistle

LBJ is a monster. looks like it's gonna be yet another sweep for the cavs up 3-0 now

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

faggot Davis last shot was so fucking bullshit on sunday


and the guy is fucking retarded, actually their whole team is retarded

he got interview at the end of the game after beating magic...

Ya man it was an assignment , and my job was always ready to shoot. and i was always ready to shoot..:rolleyes::rolleyes:


dwight was furious telling them to gtfo afterwards

[hotjoint]

damn lakers got killed yesterday, who woulda guessed that not having tmac, yao and artest having a shitty game would produce such killer #'s. Big baby was clutch in that boston/orlando game. Atleast someone other then pierce or allen won it for them. I want boston out but props to big baby for those 2 big buckets.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

LeBron MVP James sweeps another team. Theres no team in the entire nba that could possibly stop that force. The cavs before were a team that with lebron on the bench werent a very good team but this year they picked up some key parts to make a good team around him. CAVS 09 CHAMPS

i blame pau gasol for the lakers game 6 loss. he's soft as a marshmallow. bynum, who's mainly for rebounding and blocking shots, can't even either of them competently. they could learn a thing or two from tim duncan and david robinson.

[hotjoint]

a little late but I'm glad boston is out :)

anyone watch inside the nba?

why don't you ever buy a woman a watch?

this part of the game was so 'amazing'
the blocks, the dunks, the 3pointer... great basketball..

[rickross888]

wow what a shot by Lebron. clutch! that was the difference right there the ability to get him the ball out of an inbound play. unlike the lakers inability to get the ball into kobe's hands at the end of the game last night.

wow and wow is all i can say about the conference finals so far. great first 4 games and looking forward to more.

[MR_BIGGS]

Lebron's shot was clutch....amazing...I didn't think he'd get the ball let alone get the shot off.....that's where champions are made...that was amazing..

[Not really racist!]

amazing shot by lebron yo

[steel_chain619]

MVP LEBRON JAMES

[secstasy]

LEBROOONNNNNNNN !

[Qmx323]

Many people fail to see the poor officiating in this game. Marcin Gortat was called for a block when he was blatantly outside the restricted zone, and was standing straight up waiting for the offensive player, and also the play where Ben Wallace drew a "charge" by undercutting. (not allowing space for Courtney Lee to land). NBA rules states that a defensive player has to allow an offensive player to land if he is not in position to draw a charge, and Ben got into position when Lee was already in the air.

And Mo Williams freakin' tossed the ball at D12 during a dead ball.



Fuckin' sick shot by Lebron though.

[R8]

lebron FTW, but seriously.. they let his travel's go way too much... its kinda getting annoying and im a cavs fan lol

[Not really racist!]

Clutch closing by Kobe again...

Arizia with another major steal near the end of the game..

[rickross888]

that is why you put the ball in the best players hands at the end of a game. Kobe is amazing! He looked VERY exhausted after the game.

post-game comment by Kobe on hitting the big 3 to silence the crowd: "It's a great feeling. It's a much better feeling actually than being at home and hearing the roar of the crowd. You enjoy it a lot more because everyone is against you, everyone is wanting you to lose, wanting you to fail. When you hit a shot like that and everybody goes quiet it feels good, it feels real good."
i love the way he said it

Pau did his job in the post in the 4th before Kobe took over. Ariza's steal was big and not to mention the numerous 3s he hit. That steal was reminiscent of the game 1 steal he made, deja vu.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

deja vu fucking indeed

i was motherfucking furious yesterday watching the homo game. game one i was pissed, yesterday? that was fucking unacceptable. George fucking karl should be fired?

how hard is it to imbound a play? pretty fucking easy i tell you. They used one time out and couldnt inbound the ball. OK another time out, still had difficulties and than threw a horrible one to melo. fuck that shit
denver should have won that one, they play better than lakers thruout 1-3rd quarter

GO LAKERS GO! but to be fair, I don't think George Karl should be fired because of this lol.. they are in the west finals man...IMO, it's the inbounder's fault... if karl told him to lob the inbound then it's just plain idiocy

throwing the ball out can be tough especially if the pressure is good and of course, there's the pressure of getting it inbound before you get the violation.

Overall, I was happy about the game yesterday. =)

[daval]

Cav +1.5 and under 190 tonite!

[StampPad]

Oh god, what the heck happened to Lebron tonight? What the hell happened to the Cavs for that matter!

[hotjoint]

Hey stamppad, i didn't know you were an nba fan :). Go orlando hahaha cavs can't even hang with orlando. Just shows that regular season means nothing

[XplodeTheBass]

I cant believe my teams are both down 2-1. im sure that game 4 will be a bounce back for both

[n1smo]

nah man no one can stop melo or bills

ya well u are happy becuz lakers won


game one and game 3 they didnt deserve it. cuz denver was always leadn

[rickross888]

in the playoffs it's not about who deserved to win or not, it's who actually wins and winning is all that matters. all the woulda, coulda, shoulda stuff is irrelevant. a win is a win and a loss is a loss.

lakers were getting called on every damn touch foul while kenyon martin is clearing out people on picks.

[Not really racist!]

Wow

JR Smith is so cocky...

Can't want too see his face when the Lakers beat em

[n1smo]

^ nah JR sick can't stop him

[rickross888]

wow this referrering is fucking shit in the playoffs

fucking blind.

totally agree and like Ive said before the officiating is fucking terrible throughout the playoffs. its playoff basketball let the players play and stop calling technicals and flagrant fouls every single time something overly physical happens. it also totally kills the flow of the game with teams being in the penalty so often. both the game tonight and the cavs vs. magic game last night were indicative of foul-plagued games. there was NO flow to the game towards the end. that foul dwight picked up at the end of the game blocking LBJ was all ball. calls like this are unacceptable for officials that make $300,000 a year. its playoff basketball just let the players play!

[Not really racist!]

^ nah JR sick can't stop him

if jr is unstoppable then kobe is superman

[n1smo]

^yeah but kobe's a bitch he likes to elbow poeple in the throat aka ron

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

its ok gansters deserve to be cocky


:thumbsup:

[FatalCloud]

^yeah but kobe's a bitch he likes to elbow poeple in the throat aka ron

you're talking about artest, the drama queen from queen's. and apparently kobe likes to fall on his face for no reason cause he's a klutz. :rolleyes:

[Not really racist!]

kobe didn't fake that trip when Jones decided to stick his leg out purposely

[Not really racist!]

i don't know if you were talking to me, but i was sarcastic.

no not directed to you

[KJL]

i cant believe cavs is doing this bad, where is the defence on the 3pts??? they allow 17 3points in game4!!

[411ken]

If the Cavs gets knocked out *which I hope doesn't happen*, cleveland can start saying their goodbye's to Lebron as I am pretty sure he will leave for another team by 2010. Also, what a stupid move by Williams to guarantee a victory...I bet the magics were happy to hear that...just shut your mouth and do your talking on the court.

I'm still hoping for Cavs/Lakers finals...with my lakers coming out on top!

[ChaKo]

cavs have a new chinese investor. lebron might stay!

[Not really racist!]

Lamar explodeededd!

Lakers got dis!

Now I hope Magic beat Cavs tmr
