comment from a c's fan

Hey guys,
I just wanted to say two things. Frist off you guys haveplayed amazing against Detroit and I am hoping that you guys take them to seven games (and take them out). Also Wille Green has really showed me something this series and I have to admit I was not a HUGE fan of him before. What do you guys thinks you will do in the offseason to add to your team? I think it is probably a no-brainer that Iggy is resigned because him and Andre are playing well together (young too). Good luck for the rest of the series and here is to you guys HOPEFULLY taking out D-town!

I love the fake rooting for underdogs by other teams fans. Let's just be honest, you want us to win because you think we'd be less of a challenge than Detroit should we meet further down the playoffs. I mean, that's cool and all, but let's be honest

Not surprised that this bopard is a grumpy place this morning. Hopefully tomorrow night will turn this place around.

BTW- wouldn't mind seeing Willie in Cel;tics "Green" next year.

I'm soo pissed we missed out on this win.This was the perfect oppurtunity to grab a strangle hold of the series. And even worse, is the fact that it was in our grasp...

I don't understand why people don't like WG on this team. His ability to score one-on-one is a great spark for this team when we're struggling to score....... which is kind of often.

Sure he struggles sometimes, but he is a positive force on this team.

LOL people are upset

The Sixers will come back strong against Detroit in the next game. Too bad it's on NBA TV :cry:

Ah...Get Rising down man, its off the hook...You got any other albums?

UptownPhilly · Post #14 » by **UptownPhilly** » Mon Apr 28, 2008 6:02 pm

I'll take your word :wink:

Nope, just started my collection.

Oh, we're talking legal here...No wonder you only got one.

Hmmm In that case, I'm not sure this should be the next album you get, they have quite a few which are just as good. But I really like the new album, and the reviews have been quite positive.

Things Fall Apart is really good...Which came after Illadelph. After that was Game Theory, which was really different when compared to their other albums, but still really good.

I think, its better you just sample the songs on the album, and decide for yourself. There are 2 or 3 more albums in addition to the ones I just mentioned. Just letting you know Rising down is damn good haha...

lol sorry if my post sparked some harsh feelings. Yes I would rather not play Detroit, but I was actually being serious when I posted what I said about Philly. They deserve to win this series and they have played hard ever game.. There really wasn't nay duel motives in my post..

The C's should have no reason to fear the Pistons. Down the strecth of the season and in this series they have been exposed. They are not as good as in past years and we would be crushing them if we had any kind of half court offense. They played fairly poorly for the last month and a half of the season with some bad losses. They are getting too old to "turn it on" all the time anymore. Do what you must to stop Prince and the other guys won't beat you consistently. If the Pistons beat us they might get by the Magic and their weak backcourt. If the C's lose to Detroit they should be embarassed.

I agree. I knew the Sixers would at least give them a series and they have so far. I was laughing at the people who thought this would be a sweep or a 5 game series. Detroit hasn't scared me since they fired Larry Brown and let go of Ben Wallace. He provided the interior defense that they lack now. I belive with the signing of a power foward next year we should be a legit 50 win team.

You look like the biggest Roots fan ever and you're still on Illadelph Halflife? What's up with that man? Game Theory, The Tipping Point, and like the other poster said, Rising Down are all awesome discs.

Edit: Wow I didn't look at eyeatoma's post right above me until now and I just realized he listed the 3 same albums as I did. Wow. Well that should say enough that two different people agree that those 3 are the best Roots albums.

UptownPhilly · Post #20 » by **UptownPhilly** » Mon Apr 28, 2008 10:45 pm

LOL I'm just reppin Philly that's all.

I'll definitely have to check those albums out though.
