Dude, you were antagonizing and you know it. It's not "crying".. if anything, its "complaining."

And now you are telling me to be careful. I knew it. Next time, choose your words better.


When is the last time I was "antagonizing?" I was referring to your comment to "grow up." Every time we see the Cs lose, everyone, including myself (for a brief moment) overreacts. I thought we could put it all in one thread. See, I am a progressive thinker. We have a victory cigar thread, so why no have the bizarro thread when a loss occurs?

Pierce use to be what Joe Johnson is today. Its not because Pierce is old, its is because he is overweight.

We are gonna win this series, but I knew this **** would happen.


I wouldn't say half, but there is no doubt he needs to get off his azz in the off-season and lose some fat. If this team wants a title in their 3 year or so window...Pierce needs to be the man...

To be fair we also said what were the odds of JJ and Smith playing as well as they did in game 3 again. Looks like we got the answer tonight. :wink:

Ray was ON FIRE & we refused to get him the ******* ball. pathetic. doc is HORRIBLE. i've never been on the "fire doc" bandwagon, but believe me, i'm a top member now. the guy doesnt know what to do half the time. pathetic...

we're not a lock to win this damn thing now. pathetic. we're WORSE than the mavs from last year if we lose this thing. don't come on here sayin i'm overreactin b/c we've been handled the past two games, we've been outhustled, outplayed, hell, even outcoached by a coach who might not even be back (now he will tho).

jus heartbreaking.


Ive been saying it all season DOC RIVERS CANT COACH IN THE PLAYOFFS! and the sad thing is like u said, were not a lock to win this anymore and that truly is scary

In my opinion, Pierce and (Tony) Allen are the best players on the team at creating their own offense and they're both slashers. Unfortunately, Pierce might be still aligning from the avalanche (Smith) he'd endured in game three and Tony isn't having his name called off the bench. I'm hoping this won't be a case of: Too little too late in this series. Rivers should play Tony a lot in game five. Allow him to regain his confidence at home. Assign him to guard Johnson.

I just want pierce to put his mark on the game. In the Big 3, Paul is the only one whose attempts have dropped while the other two rose. Thats just not how it should work. Pierce didn't get all those victory cigars by deferring to RA & KG the whole damn time.
