Dallas @ Orlando Game Thread 

Post#1 » by Bay_Areas_Finest » Mon Feb 4, 2008 1:35 am

Teams: Dallas Mavericks ( 31-15 ) @ Orlando Magic ( 31-18 )

Time: 7:00 PM ET

Where: Some place in that weird shaped state

-------


Dallas Mavericks


Image
Mr. Terry
Image
Mr. Jones
Image
Mr. Howard
Image
Mr. Nowitzki
Image
Mr. Dampier



@



Orlando Magic


Image
Mr. Arroyo
Image
Mr. Evans
Image
Mr. Turkoglu
Image
Mr. Lewis
Image
Mr. Howard


------


This game will start off with a pyro display during the Magic introductions that will result in a firecracker going out of control and getting shot up Jason Terry's ass, causing his Beetlejuice looking head to explode in a moment of frightened extacy.

In the first five minutes of the game, Maurice Evans will throw down five dunks, and in the process, yet out a shrill yell that sounds much like the voice of a 4 year old girl getting attacked by spiders. This will cause the Mavs to all fall to the floor as their ears bleed from pain, as Orlando goes on a 20-0 run.

Dwight Howard will dominate the Mavericks en route to 25 points, 25 rebounds, and on one occasion, will pull a Kareem and drop a hook shot from 15 feet away, and while doing so, flips his leg up and kicks Dirk Nowitzki in the face, causing him to bleed uncontrollably as he is forced to sit out the remainder of the season, with the diagnosis being "Pussyalitis".

Hedo Turkoglu will continue his torrid run, scoring 30 points, 15 rebounds, 10 assists, and 9 steals, while going 10-10 from 3 Pt range. He will do his turkey dance across the floor, as MVP chants emmit not only from the Orlando crowd, from around the nation, as people flock the streets all over the USA, sporting Hedo masks and signs.

Orlando will get 40 points from their bench, with Brian Cook droppin 44 of them. Yes, that's right.

Magic win by 30.

Damn, a very tough poll... Really tough to choose... I'll have to rank them...

1. LotR
1a. Matrix
1aa. Star Wars

2. Bourne Trilogy
3. Star Wars Prequel Trilogy... Revenge of the Sith made it worth it.
4. Terminator
5. Indiana Jones
6. Scream

(Haven't seen the Godfather trilogy)

No doubt its the ref's who waived away Cook's 4 point play... anyway... Go Magic!

The first is the best. The second kinda makes you hate Michael. And the third, a Puerto Rican plays an Italian, ... sucks. But you have to see the movies. I have the trilogy, 30 bucks at Walmart.

I'll be at this game, so it's a guaranteed win!

2-0 so far this year when I attend the Magic games (one of them was the first time we played Boston)

Godfather just because the first two were two of the best movies in world history.

I've never seen the third.

Star Wars IV is my favorite movie, but I would not call this the best trilogy. Star Wars V had no ending, and Star Wars VI was quite a standard SciFi flick.

For it's completeness, Lord of the Rings would get votes. I found these movies to be a bit slow and to action oriented.

Indiana Jones also started with a best-ever movie. The second was OK for a sequel, and the third was also OK. But does great:good:good equal the best trilogy?

Godfather can be excluded given how poor the third movie compares to the first two.

Bourne was the same movie three times. All were very fun, but none are
culturally important.

The Matrix series is to weird. Especially when movies II and III really don't end.



This leaves Scream and Terminator.

Scream I is a fantastic parody on slasher flix. Scream II is a fantastic parody on sequels. Scream III was less good, as it did not fully parody "the third in a trilogy." Still, I was leaning heavy to vote here on a great:great:good line.

But in the end, I go with Terminator. The first is a non-typical campy SciFi movie well imbedded in the historical past of the 80s (as an aside, this movie was part of what "made" HBO). Every ten years, the first movie is even more campy. Fantastic! The second movie was a very atypical sequel and was very watch-able. The third movie was an all-out effort by Hollywood, but a more typical sequel. Here, I rate great:great:good.



BTW: This question is well asked on the internet. The consensus amongst the universe is:
1) LoR
2) Star Wars
3) Godfather
4) Indiana Jones

To the game, Detroit blowing out Dallas does not help the Magic. The Mavs will be focused and angry. For the Magic to win this, they must win the TO battle AND hit their FTs. A tough order for this team.

Magic at -2; sadly if I was a betting man, I'd lay coin on the Mavs for this one.

Maybe Mr. 4th quarter can find yet another Magical gem?!?!?

Dallas showed absolutely no post defense in that loss to Detroit. I hope the same team shows up in Orlando. Dwight should enjoy that very much!!

Damn Lord of the Rings is getting a lot of love! I thought the 2nd movie was a bit of a letdown, and the first tended to drag on. Loved the final film though. It was amazing.

I was going to put that, but didn't know how many movies were in the series. I've never seen BttF. :oops:
