in honor of the new thread, a random thought -

how often do you guys play sports with friends?

Working 40 Hours a week and Paying a Mortgage make its really hard to play sports with "friends"

Damn, thinking about it I haven't hit the courts in over 8 Months..

I play catch weekly though..

Random Thought..
If Lebron, Wade & Bosh were coached by Phil Jackson would their Triangle Offense be IMPOSSIBLE to stop? Could that offense with their talent average 110+ pts/gm?

I shoot hoops almost every day. I try to play with my friends as much as possible, even though it's hard to coordinate. I prefer 2-on-2 and 3-on-3 because of the strategy, but I'm game for 1-on-1 every now and then, especially since it helps me work on my man-to-man defense and develop good countermoves.

I'm usually not one for pickup games with strangers, though, since I've had too many incidents. I prefer playing with people who value teammwork, communication, etc. over being a flashy ballhog.

I think they'll average close to that this year without a triangle offense!

With my current work schudule, I try to get in atleast a few hours a week of basketball. During the summer I played every Sunday but that has changed, with time. Now I'm looking for a new day but work doesn't really give me much time to play. I prefer 5-5 but it seems like its hard to find those games now. Every time I try to find a pickup game, I leave early. Like Andre said, I prefer team work and communication over flashy ballers(I used to be that way but with time, I love the team game now).

BBW - not what you thought.

Bosh, Bron, Wade. How lame of a nickname is that?

And it can go all kinds of ways.

BWB - Basketball Without Borders, The WB+B - a la Warner Brothers. Huh? Huh?

From a poster on the Knicks board:

rocarlos24 wrote:Ok I know its just training camp but I just watched the Miami heats real training camp on
NBATV and I was not impressed one bit, they are super athletic but after that not much at all..
I think if we had a series we would beat them they just have a bad flow... they remind me of like a big
bad home run hitter that either hits it out the park or strikes out, no base hits no mid game

anyone else catch that? whats your thoughts?


The next poster said that's worse than judging from a preseason game, and the poster after that said they'll win 5 rings straight :lol:

I think that the general board is gunna change to the extremities either good/bad depending on who wins between boston Heat on Oct 26th

If we lose everyone will talk hard but if we win it's gunna be more quiet than ever lol

I want Bucher, Barkley, Dan G, all on commentary during the game @ Clev. it'll be a million more times funny :loL:


Dan: "I know the Heat aren't going to win a title"
Barkley: "I agree the Lakers front court will stop them, look at Kobe not having to team up with another superstar that is a real champion"
Bucher: "Guys it's okay I have it on good authority that next season the knicks will get Carmelo and Chris Paul will demand a trade"..
Barkley: "Dear lord the heat have killed the league"
Dan: "What A-holes".
:lol: :lol:
