Mo was hurt and played like puke in that series.

I don't blame him for repressing those 4-5 games, he was garbage that series.

WOW.

I caught that too. What a douche. He shouldn't be bitter, he's in a good situation.

He didn't sound bitter. It was very matter of fact.

He didn't sound bitter at all.

He averaged 7 ppg in that series, so it's not like he was awful.

He was terrible in that series.

Cleveland playing choking defence here. Lebron doing whatever he wants, Mo and West hitting jumpers from everywhere. This really could be Cleveland's year.

Rockets/Blazers on NBA TV. What a genius move that was.

You know, when he was in Minnesota he was not nearly as annoying and (Please Use More Appropriate Word).

Yeah that was just sad. The guy can't do anything to help them out, so he'll just be INTENSE!!!! and shout "motherf*ckers!!" as many times as he can. He used to be one of my favorites but now I can't stand him.

lol Lebron Kissing the lady in the seats.

Cavs and Pistons series after 2 games: Free Throws

Det: 23 - 28
Cle: 55 - 70
LBJ: 24 - 31

No wonder people here were opposed to us trying to make the 8th seed.

midranger · Post #514 » by **midranger** » Wed Apr 22, 2009 3:51 am

If you've watched the series, Lebron has been relentless going to the hoop and Detroit has settled entirely for jumpers.

I never understood how Detroit got so many FTs in our series 4 years ago because they played the exact same way. They're a jumpshooting team.

Bynum has looked pretty solid on the block.

UWM_Brew_Buck · Post #516 » by **UWM_Brew_Buck** » Wed Apr 22, 2009 4:08 am

I'm not trying to jinx them but the Jazz Lakers game is much better than the first one.

I was going to ask how he looked, I still haven't seen him play since the injury. Does the athleticism look to be there? Is he playing defense?

Good players are way less repulsive to neutral fans when they play for bad teams, it's just the way it goes. FWIW I've never liked KG, ever, but I do respect the hell out of his game. In a generation of stars who were volume scorers and not much else he played both sides of the ball, and still does.

Roy had a huge night. I want to see the Blazers advance, but I do think it'd be funny if we could start saying that the only time McGrady has advanced out of the first round is when he wasn't playing.

lawrybeard · Post #520 » by **lawrybeard** » Wed Apr 22, 2009 5:13 am

It took nearly the perfect game from the Blazers to barely scrape through at home. I can't see them winning it, although Roy is a such a fine player.
