NBA FINALS
 

I'm surprised with Chicago's victory over Miami...

but Chicago is going to get rolled anyways. My vote goes to either the Spurs or Mavericks.

The last few secs of the sac vs sa game were amazing. This is the only time of the year when i tune in to b'ball... PLAYOFFS!

lol phoenix and lakers are gettin a little physical...first game 1 nash like slaps lakers guard and now game 2 luke walton a hard foul on tim thomas and boris diaw gettin throw to the ground by kwame...shit..this is a fun series to watch...no altercations between kobe and raja bell yet amazingly...those two hate eachother

Lakers will beat the Suns.

Kings suck.

Chicago can beat Miami if they start playing better sooner instead of the last few minutes.

its all worthless anyway because the pistons will destroy anyone

they own the heat, cavs, nets, sac, lal, sa, dallas, phx

basketballs for pussy's

Basketball > Hockey

TGB:

Lakers up 2-1.

Kings barely won yesterday. They were torn apart game one. 1-2.

Bulls have done the same thing every game so far. Start out alright, trail by 10ish and then explode the last few minutes. If they can keep it closer, they can win.

ohyou mean last year when they went to game 7 against the spurs, after they went 7 games against wade shaq and the heat, they lose game game 5 of that series on a robert horry buzzer beater 3.

they go into the 4th quarter leading on theroad in SA, when no one gave them a chance to get there where duncan took over (which would have never happened at the palace)

all they do the this year is kick everyones ass and finished as the best team in the league with home court through out the playoffs.

no team in the league can beat the pistons 4 games out of 7.

lets not forget they destroyed the super lakers team the year before that

enjoy your 1st round exit this year you wont get past the spurs

And lost. . .yea I remember that.

By ONE game. . .guess who the #2 and #3 team is. . .

Youre smokin if you really believe this. . .

[quote:2c7ba]lets not forget they destroyed the super lakers team the year before that[/quote:2c7ba]

Who didnt that year?

[quote:2c7ba]enjoy your 1st round exit this year you wont get past the spurs[/quote:2c7ba]

Possibly - but then a #8 seeded team just might upset the #1 seeded team. . .hmmm - where else are we seeing that happen right now. . .someone kick-start me memory here -
beer:

heh you're grasping straws homeboy.

and gimme a fuckin break the pistons clinched the best record in the league like a week before the end of the season and rested their startes who only playedlike 20min a game the last week. Thats what made it even close

I swear kevin martin hits a prayer layup(on your home court) and you act like they are world beaters. rolleyes: keep dreaming because the kings lost they chance to win 3-4 years ago during the webber years.

and no im not smoking

det v sac 2-0
v SA 2-0
v dal 1-1
v phx 2-0
v miami 3-1

milwaukee was hyped up tonight, couldnt miss a shot who the fuck shoots 60% from the field and 64% from 3 point land, pistons mailed this one in

no one rioted when we won 2 years ago.

and why the fuck would we continue to play our starters after we clinched the best record oOo:

thats about the stupidest fucking thing ive heard,its not like you get to start with a 10 point lead if you win best record by more than a game.

and yes playing them only 20 minutes(if at all, yes they all got days off) is certainly resting your starters when they all average 38-42 minutes a game.

for being a black dude you dont know shit about basketball

jesus ill go ahead an interrupt a heated debate

i have been watching the playoffs and theyre pretty sweet, im not feelin any team ftw yet tho, its a good series so far

also has anyone bet on the playoffs at bodog.com or anything?

[quote="TGB!":e9aec]
As for the SPURS - they may well bounce us out of the Playoffs - but they havent exactly rolled over us - and have had their fair share of last minute hail-mary plays this year.[/quote:e9aec]
I remember at 35 point ass kicking just a few games ago.....

If you actually think that SA can beat Detroit, then theres no way in fuck can the Kings beat SA.

ps pistons > sa > bucks > kings

rolleyes:

thats why they play the games i guess, I havent seen a single team this year that could beat the pistons 4 games out of 7.

you bring up the spurs, they got smoked by DEt by 15+ pts both meetings this year.

detroit fans are passionate and support their teams therough thick and thin (hell look at the lions) where as Sacramento was the nba dumping ground till webber came there.

The Mavs will win it all

Kobe will be out in the first round

and Hockey > Basketball...what the fuck you guys smoking?

sports oOo:

[quote="TGB!":c814a]

By that logic then the BUCKS must be a far better team than DETROIT. Right.[/quote:c814a]
oOo: oOo:
You said that the Spurs haven't rolled over the Kings yet. They beat them by 35 the 1st game and the Kings only win came from a lucky layup on the Kings side. What the fuck does that have to do with the Bucks and Pistons?



[quote:c814a]Just like theres no way Phoenix is losing to LA - no way CHICAGO will make Miami sweat - please. Detroit wins ONE championship in two trips to the finals. . .and all of a sudden they are the leagues best?[/quote:c814a]
Phoenix plays bad D and has a weak low. I'm not saying LA's is the best, but with a 6'7 guy as your main low-post guy....As for Detroit, I'm pretty sure back-to-back Championship appearances while winning one and the league's best record makes them the leagues best.

Mavs won't make it to Championship.

LA will beat SA.

Football > Basketball > Baseball > Hockey

Only sport worth watching is soccer. Fifa is amazing. And cricket, which requires a different taste to say the least.

Basketball is for &*$$ers

every sport requires a different taste..but i agree with soccer as no1

kobe hits a gamewinner at the buzzer in OT...suns lose 99-98....the series is now 3-1...still beleive suns are not going to get beat by the lakers?

If the refs continue loving the Lakers...unfortunatly...yes.

Cricket eek:

Id rather staple my tongue to a toilet seat while impaling my eyes with acid soaked toothbrushes than watch that shite. annoy:

Who in this thread has said that?

Each to his own? eek: rolleyes: biggrin:

Not to shit on your sport (TGB) but, i just can't warm up to it. I'll just say i'll be rooting for the Nets. If they make the finals, i may....just may watch the last 2 minutes of the game.

[quote="TGB!":b4c31]

I will give it to Michigan fans - you guys have a great team. . .for now. But so called "dynasties" only last a few years in this league. . .and soon youll be back to where you started before Brown and The Brotha's Wallace came down to funky town.[/quote:b4c31]

Billups 29 yrs old
Hamilton 28 yrs old
Prince 26 yrs old
B. Wallace 31 yrs old
R. Wallace 31 yrs old

they will have a productive 4-5 years together at least

more like 1 to 3...rasheed and ben are around the age where their numbers start to drop...tayshaun's a free agent this year and he'll be offered plenty of contracts.

[quote="Short Hand":34048]Basketball is for &*$$ers[/quote:34048]

lets go mavericks !

ben and chauncy are the ones who will be FA and I don't see them going anywhere

Its not only a matter of maintaining a team with a dynamic - but its also having that team be able to adjust to the team changes that happen in the league. Look at the LAKERS - they had the same lineup for their first three championships, but they got complacent and SA rolled them in the Semi's. Changed it up, and they got rolled in the finals. Detroit kept the same team, and got beat in the finals. Having a "winning team" just isnt good enough - because the more you play teams, the smarter the players and the coaches get, and the greater your chances are that another team is going to put together that winning combo that takes you out. The ONLY team this didnt happen to is to the BULLS - and I maintain that they had fucking robots playing on that team.

And - I guess one blowout deserves another. . . beer:

FFS, Bucks with another Jesus game but the Pistons are holding on
