Post#1 » by Lane1974 » Sun Apr 20, 2008 1:25 am

so..

LBJ was superman
so was Tim Duncan..

Shaq ... not so much
Mavs... not so much
could Avery Johnson be fired if the Mavs lose in round 1 again?

I hope that Shaq goes out in the first round. A sweep would be even better although I doubt it will happen. 2 more losses and he is out!

I can't wait to here the Big Cry Baby whine about how his team let him down... how they weren't feeding him the ball in the post... how he never had an easy pass.

I was hoping Shaq would get knocked out by Kobe, but a sweep by the Spurs would do just fine cause I don't like Kobe anyway.

I see that Tim Duncan pulled a Roy Hibbert nailing a three with minimal time left, Roy's was at the end of the game to give his team the lead and the victory, while Duncan's forced another overtime. Do y'all now see why I want Hibbert on my team?
For a long time it gave me nightmares,witnessing an injustice like that.It’s a constant reminder of just how unfair this world can be.I can still hear them taunting him, Silly Rabbit tricks are for kids.I mean why couldn’t they just give him some cereal?

I was laughing when they did the hack a Shaq. I bet if Spurs beat them in the series, O'neal is going to cry about being taken out of the games cause he can't make freethrows.

Doesn't he always say he makes then when they count.

Terrible coaching by D'Antoni.. He's a joke on the defensive side of the floor. Riley would exploit him BAD

Would be crazy if Avery gets fired. I have the Mavs coming back to win that series and getting hot and winning the West. After tonight's game I have serious doubts

Wizards are good.. Have them winning too but down the stretch Lebron James is Lebron James he gets easy baskets and the Wizards are forced to shoot jumpshots and pray they go in.

He's not declaring this year. He's gonna stick to school and finish his doctorate.

Raptos back within 5 with 10:17 left to play

the TNT announcers (some guy named Matt Devlin and Mike Dunleavy Sr) are odious

our beloved Pono is 4/5 from 3 for 16 points in 16 minutes

Watching Iverson miss so many free throws hurts. What's wrong with him. Did he catch the Shaq syndrome?

The Nuggets should be better. They need to go see the wizard and get a brain and heart.

Nuggets can't play defense so they are going to lose the series.

How about the Sixers. The played a great game. Louis williams and Andre miller are underrated PG's.

The Hawks have no business being in the playoffs. It's an absolute joke, they seriously got robbed from the lottery, and the Warriors robbed from the playoffs.

I hope Wade is watching every game and I hope it hurts; we need him to come back strong and hungry to be on top again. Before injury, the playoffs was about Wade, it was his stage.

I am very jealous of other team's fans. I wish the Heat were in the picture. I can only hope Riley turns this around quick.

Vertical limit,

The hawks are happy to be back.How many lotterys do they need. Whwat they really need is playoff games. Horford is a beast and so is josh smith, Give them some time and they will be a team to fear down the road.

The Lakers are going to be big time in the playoffs. What an amazing array of talent they have. They have the perfect team right now without a big time player in Bynum. Gasol, Odom, Bryant, Radmanovic, Walton, Farmar, Vujacic, etc. That's a better team than their championship teams! I'm really enjoying watching how well they play together. For all the bad pub generated by Kobe, their GM did a magnificent job in drafting complimentary players while adding big time players in Bynum and Gasol.
