I have barely any internet connection right now, and it's slow as hell but I'm gonna try to get a real gamethread up before tonight's game.

This works. My internet is quite slow right now, but it is because of my crappy computer. I'm considering going out this weekend and getting a Macbook. I've never used a Mac before, but I hear once you go Mac, you never go back. Now, on to the game. Should be a good one. I'm going to try and make it. 10:30 starts are not good for me, but I started my vacation now, so as long as I can stay up.

These 10:30s are killing me. Hopefully I can stay up to see a win tonight. Not that the Golden State game was a disappointment

eek I don't want to see the Celtics of the past 2 games face the Suns...

we'll lets see how we adapt to the fastbreak. This might be our I think our first lost by more then 10 points of the season.

Ehh, if you get a Macbook I'd say go with the pro personally. I use a regular Macbook myself and it slows down a lot sometimes.

And as far as the game, my dad has courtside seats and I was going to go home for the game but I had a midterm and job interview yesterday. :banghead: I'm hoping for a good game and a C's win, but I've lived in PHX for 7 years now so I'm kind of torn still.

That is what I am debating. I have 2 computers right now, a Dell desktop (el cheapo) and a HP dv1000 laptop and both have been running like crap lately, in fact, my laptop just bluescreened on my yesterday even after I did a system restore. It eventually worked. The Mac Pro is about 700 beans more, which sucks, but in the end, it might be worth it.

Nice to see you back WTB. Is it just me, or does anyone think this will be the most exciting game of the season?

I think tonight is a must win. Our guys are not executing plays well, making FT's or playing the great D we've become accustomed to. It's as if they've simply forgotten how to win. This is in part due to the fact that KG has seemed slow out there and not his regular energetic self. KG always kills Amare and the suns so this should be the game that he can get back to his regular speed.

The MacBook Pro is a gift from God....definitely aim for one if you can afford it. I have an old PowerBook that's currently in Fry's Electronics service department, so I've been using the 17 inch Macbook Pro as a loaner, and let me tell you....GLORIOUS.

As for the game, good luck. I've been waiting for this all year, but I certainly didn't think we'd have Shaq instead of Marion :(.

Have to go with the suns this game. I think Shaq will have a big game.
