all in due time.

Yeah right. You saw baby wipes throw that pass away. He's just too damn soft. To be honest I'm sure they'll win a couple but its not something ill respect much. Bronbron has to join forces like captain planet to try win one. I know its a team game but he had a good team in Cleveland, he just couldn't deliver when it counted

 

[roaches]

he had a good team in Cleveland

Let's be honest. The team *he* carried to the Finals started Daniel Gibson, Sasha Pavlovic, Drew Gooden and Zydrunas Ilgauskas. After that they featured the corpse of Ben Wallace, the corpse of Antawn Jamison, and the corpse of Shaquille O'Neal.

 

[ARon]

To be even more honest, he was in the East when they were beyond weak. Still, best record in the regular season and choking in the playoffs isn't a good look

 

[roaches]

That shit so tired. The meh-ness of the East has little to do with who he drew in the postseason. In 06 he lost to an elite Pistons team that won more than 60 games. The year after that, he singlehandedly got his revenge on that same Pistons squad and carried the Cavs to the Finals where he got swept just like everyone expected the Cavs to. The year after THAT, he lost in 7 to an elite Celtics team and dropped 40-something in Game 7. The year after that... he dropped the ball in game 6 against the Magic but he averaged over 40 in the first 5 games. The year after that, he lost to an elite Celtics team that was obviously resting during the regular season but had numbers better than that won Kobe the Finals MVP the same year. Last year he finished off the Celtics and ethered Derrick Rose before, okay, choking in the Finals. What a horrible resume. He's even worse than that kid from UNC who tore shit up almost a decade but couldn't get past Zeke.

 

[ARon]

I was only talking about the year he went to the Finals. Everyone expected a sweep in the finals no matter who repped the East. The Pistons team they beat were like 3 years removed from winning that title and were a definitely a shadow of their former selves.

going to see the blazers saturday night. good tickets too. $110 face value.

^ Nice. I went to my first Sixers game last night, against the Thunder. I imagine the Rose Garden will be a tad livelier.

Whenever Raymond Felton walks towards a camera, I feel like he's about to ask me for a cigarette or if I'm gonna finish eating that.

 

[ARon]

I was at the Portland and Denver game last night. Poor Kurt Thomas getting kicked in the face

 

[Ristol]

Deron Williams: holy shit. I get it. You're great. 57?!

110 doesn't get you in the building at MSG, but yeah, cool. Good for you, and all that.

 

[ARon]

MSG nosebleeds must be the worst in the league. I feel sorry for Knicks fans. I might get up there this week for the BET if Georgetown sees Syracuse again, though.

Yeah, sitting way up there sucks. Better just to watch on TV. I don't really go to Knicks games--it's insanely expensive. Last one I went to was 04 or 05, when I watched Gilbert Arenas put 33 on us. (I go to a ton of Mets games though lol.) College games there are tremendous, hope you go. Last college game I went to was in the NIT, St. John's/Georgetown. I don't remember the year. It was the Mike Sweetney Hoyas, if that helps. And my Johnnies smacked 'em.

Psh, you don't remember the year (03) because the win was vacated. Sweet's kinda let himself go since then:

 

[Ristol]

LOL

 

[ARon]

Lmao.

Cuse and uconn should be good

 

[Kobe]

I've been too busy to follow the league as much as I'd like to, but damn!

...even the Rockets bench react to that.​

Lakers win the Old Timer's League Championship! <----That's plagiarised from a commentor at a Lakers forum.
