NBA 2009-2010 Season Thread

[Juan]

Kings have played a few good games this season, so hopefully they make the ESPN game an interesting one.

[Juan]

Kobe with an avulsion fracture in his right index finger.

[DaveWadding]

8-0 at home

DOMEFIELD ADVANTAGE BABY

[Skippord]

who dat?

[RP]

The Pacers are so fucking stupid. JUST FUCKING LOSE THE GAMES SO WE CAN GET JOHN WALL YOU DUMB CUNTS

Fucking horrible. Going 32 -50 is worse then going 2-80. We do this stupid shit every year. Get teased with a possible 8th seed in the playoffs, miss it and get stuck with a 10th- 15th pick who's usually some piece of cow shit player like Tyler Hansboro ( no offense, he played great last night but still ). JUST LOSE THE FUCKING GAMES. We need a point guard. We need John Wall.

[OssMan]

Holler at your Boykins

LOL losing to the Wizards.

Agent 0 (ugh) with the Triple Double 22/10/10

[Droford]

bbahaha..

The Wizards might just blow it..how do you foul a guy who has .5 seconds to shoot the ball off an inbound pass up only 1 point?

Wizards Lose! OMG ridiculous.

[OssMan]

wtf

[Champion of Europa]

I was at the Nets game last night (for free) and it was great to see a big victory for us. Sure it was against the goddamned Nets, but I'm still happy with a win. Hibbert's three was insaneee.

Pumped we beat the Wizards again, too. It was too close for comfort. I can't believe we blew a 17 point lead.

Also, I just won good tickets to the game on the 16th versus the Bobcats. This will be my fifth free game this year, which I'm pretty jazzed about.

[Droford]

Ive never been to a basketball game, even as much as a high school game. The Wiz, Sixers and Nets being the closest teams to me don't give me much inspiration to go see a game any time soon.

[Champion of Europa]

There is a weird since of happiness I get going to see the home team. It's electric when we get a good win and you've got good seats.

[Juan]

Lakers :(

JAZZZZZZZZZ SHOWWWWWWWW

there, I did it for you.

[SammyG]

18-4.

[Gertner]

Jazzzzzzzzzzzzz Show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RP]

This will end when they get crushed by Orlandon by 40 tonight.

BTW, TJ Ford is the worst fucking point guard i've ever seen in my life. I'd rather have Jamaal Tinsley running point and dealing dope and doing drive bys on the side then watch TJ ( 9 points 2 assists per game ) Ford, run this team into the ground.

Can we please just lose enough games to have a shot at John Wall.. Please lord. Please.

Seriously, probably a crazy thought, but imagine the cap space we'll have next year and the year after and imagine drafting John Wall and luring Lebron to Indiana to play with Wall, Granger and Hansboro and Hibbert. It can happen, but we need to start losing every game. Danny needs to go fuck up his heel again. We need to sit Tyler Hans cause he's playing to hard and to good right now. And we need more TJ Ford. Like 48 minutes of TJ Ford.

[DaveBrawl]

2 assists per game from the point guard?

[Champion of Europa]

I love Indiana and all, but I seriously fucking hate TJ Ford. Especially when I'm there to watch him. He turns over the ball all the goddamn time and can't make any shots.

The next time I see him turn over the ball trying some crazy dribbling, I'm going to scream.

So, listen for me tonight.

[Buzzkill]

Two problems with this:

A) John Wall isn't white so Larry Bird is not interested

B) Nobody would ever willingly move to Indiana

[Champion of Europa]

Reggie Miller still has a house here :(

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Going to the Celtics/Pacers game on the 22nd. I think it's the Pacers

[RP]

We renamed ourselfs the Indiana TJ Fords.

[SammyG]

Guys, Kobe has 20 and it's not even the end of the 1st yet. This might be special.

[Champion of Europa]

I'll be fucking pissed cause I got LeBron in my fantasy league and my best friend scored Kobe.

[RP]

Guys, Kobe has 20 and it's not even the end of the 1st yet. This might be special.

STFU

[SammyG]

2 broken fingers on his shooting hand. Suck it.

[RP]

I hope he breaks his back and never plays again

[SammyG]

Kobe would play with a broken back. WARRIOR MAMBA

[Juan]

Can't believe the Lakers are about to lose to the Bucks.

[Juan]

HOLY SHIT. Another buzzer beater by Kobe!!

Still, this game shouldn't have even gotten into overtime.

[Droford]

Tyreke Evans is pretty good.

The Wizards are not.

Jamison has 14 points with 2 to go in the 1st. Hes all they got it looks like.

[Juan]

[DaveWadding]

Jesus the Bucks are terrible. Should have trapped Kobe at halfcourt with 2 guys.

[Droford]

The Wizards are terrible..how many ways can they find a way to lose a game..down 1 after fighting to reduce the Kings lead from like 12 points..16 seconds to go..Arenas gets stripped with like 5 seconds to go, Arenas fouls out, and now they're down 3.

[SammyG]

BLACK MAMBA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Awful performance overall, though. Gotta stop playing down to the level of our competition.

[Buzzkill]

Black Mamba is the gayest nickname every, compounded by the fact that he coined it himself.

In that vein you guys can start calling me Bronco.

[alvarado52]

i will agree...i am a die hard Laker fan, but Buzzkill is correct. Giving yourself a nickname just doesnt work.

[Champion of Europa]

That game vs. Bobcats was so much fun to go to. I was shocked T.J. Ford didn't turn it over six billion times. We did blow a huge lead to only win by three (some of it was fucking horrible officiating. It was happening all night. I'm not sure what went down there), but that added to the excitement.

That chick's tits are perfect.

[RP]

Indy is up 11 at San Antonio. How will they lose this one? I can see O'Brien game planning this loss now.

[RP]

and we lose. Good job O'brien! If O'brien isnt fired by the allstar break, Bird should be fired.

[Buzzkill]

That's so weird because former players are always such great GMs

[RP]

Here we come John Wall!!!

[RP]

lol Psycho T

[RP]

I can see this Pacers upset of Boston coming a mile away. And then followed by a 5 game losing streak

[Buzzkill]

No way. Joel just went down with a knee injury.

Portland's injured list now reads like this:
Greg Oden
Joel Przybilla
Travis Outlaw
Nic Batum
Rudy Fernandez
Patty Mills
Jeff Pendergraph

Nate McMillain (coach) ruptured his achilles subbing in practice due to too few players
Assistant coach Mo Lucas was just diagnosed with bladder cancer
Owner Paul Allen just diagnosed with lymphoma

I don't believe in curses, but holy shit.

[Skippord]

so who is actually playing for Portland?

[Crimson]

What curse would that be?

[The Gold Standard]

How about them Knicks!!

[Buzzkill]

an hour ago I would have said brandon roy, but now it looks like he might be out too.

Holy Shit.

[Buzzkill]

What curse would that be?
We have done nothing to deserve this!!

[RP]

Thanks Jim O'Brien. 15 point leads against San Antonio and Boston, and you blow them. Cause you fucking suck. Which is good, cause we need the worst coach and worst PG in the NBA to lose as many games as we can so we can get John Wall.

BTW. Since Jeff Foster isnt doing anything, how you have him go injure Danny Granger for another 3 months.

[Icess]

Lebron and Shaq? Time to own. Merry Christmas Kobe

[Juan]

The Lakers have been taken to the wire by some scrub teams this year. I really hope they are in top form on Christmas. I am hoping for an exciting game though.

Lakers by 2

Psh, Shaq and LeBron wont even be able to come close to a W. We got this one easy. I would have rather seen us face the Celts...but i guess i can wait till we send 'em packing in the Finals this year.

Washington Wizards say guard Gilbert Arenas had firearms in locker
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS (CP) – 2 hours ago
WASHINGTON — The Washington Wizards say Gilbert Arenas stored unloaded firearms in a locked container in his locker, and the NBA also is looking into the situation.
The Wizards say there was no ammunition in the container, and Arenas and the team have notified authorities and the league.
The NBA also released a statement Thursday night saying it is gathering details about what happened.
Arenas scored 18 points in Washington's 109-97 victory at Milwaukee on Wednesday night. The three-time All-Star is averaging 22.2 points after being limited to 15 games during the past two seasons following three operations on his left knee over 1 1/2 years.
Wizards spokesman Scott Hall wouldn't say when or where Arenas had the firearms in his locker.

Taking the "Agent Zero" nickname a tad too seriously?

[Skippord]

lol in the locker room

[Juan]

The contract numbers have arrived: Gasol will officially make $57 million over his three-year extension, saying he took less money so the Lakers could allocate more toward other players over that time. Gasol, 29, could have earned an additional $7 million on his extension, which kicks in after next season.

"I'm thankful for this franchise," Gasol said. "I'm thankful that I got traded here for whatever reason. It's a privilege to be part of this team so I don't mind compromising for the benefit of the team and the franchise and still get paid very, very well."

Bryant said he was "excited" for Gasol but declined to tie Gasol's extension to his own. Bryant, 31, is negotiating an extension that would also keep him under contract to 2013-14.

"What does his thing have anything to do with me playing five years?" Bryant said flatly. "But, no, I'm happy for him."

[Buzzkill]

lol orlando with 47 nearing the end of the third :(

[McLegend]

Some high quality basketball today.

[Juan]

Hey, that's not Steve Nash

[DaveWadding]

Honestly, I dont care how the Suns do or what gifts I did or didn't get this year, NOTHING makes me happier than knowing the Lakers got stomped by 20 points at home. Not a damn thing.

[DaveWadding]

Hey Samuel, what's up buddy?

[Juan]

Wow. Chill out guy

[Juan]

You should probably reevaluate your life if nothing makes you happier than a loss by a basketball team.

[VonErichLives]

what to stay classy lakers fans...

What also interests me is the throwing of the foam fingers... Do adults really by these things or did they take them from there kids to throw on the court?

[DaveWadding]

It was very nice of Kobe to give the rest of his teammates Christmas off.

[DaveWadding]

You should probably reevaluate your life if nothing makes you happier than a loss by a basketball team.

IT's my schadenfreude. I am merely taking great joy in watching the cocky Lakers fans around here (not necessarily you, BTW) get knocked down a peg or two.

[SammyG]

LAAAKE SHOW.

Wait. uh.

[SammyG]

go clips. my ex is at the game. so go clips.

[Kris P Lettus]

Peanut went the fuck off today..

[Kris P Lettus]

BTW, what did Odam get thrown out for?? I was at my bro's and we had the game on but I missed that part..

[Juan]

I dunno. I turned it off early in the 4th quarter.

[SammyG]

2nd T

[Kris P Lettus]

LOL I saw that..

[alvarado52]

Youch, that was ugly. I swear the Lakers think their opponents are just gonna walk into Staples Center and go 'alright, well, lets go out there and lose to these guys because they are favored to win the Championship'.

Pretty disappointed in the way they played.

[SammyG]

Our bench has been awful, seriously. Kobe wasn't up to par either.

Also LOL @ Ron Artest. Fell down a flight of stairs at his LA home, out for tonight's game vs Sacramento. I GET TO SEE MY BOY TYREKE TONIGHT! TYREEEEEEEEEKE! Go Lakers regardless though, obviously.

[Brujesino]

iam not buying that he tripped over boxes and fell down the stairs unless he was completly drunk :lol:

good news for people who dont like the lakers bad news for us ron artest fans

[Nark Order]

Tyreke Evans will be a star. Mark my words.

[Nark Order]

BTW, what did Odam get thrown out for?? I was at my bro's and we had the game on but I missed that part..

He got two technicals. Second one was for getting in Anderson Varajo's face about something I think. Anderson should've spit an apple in his face and told him that he spits in the face of people who don't want to be cool.

[Buzzkill]

You should probably reevaluate your life if nothing makes you happier than a loss by a basketball team.
lol that is retarded.

Pretty sure you're the juan that needs to chill out.

[McLegend]

Ron Artest on the hennesy.

[Juan]

Lakers beat the Kings in Double Overtime :nono:

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

CELTICS 13-1 ON THE ROAD S MY D

[Brujesino]

warriors finally snap their losing streak:)

monta ellis had 33pts 10 asissts

ronny turaif came back today and Andris Biedrins is expected back monday against he Celtics should be a great game

[SammyG]

what a phenomenal game. Kobe playing with 1 arm for the last quarter and overtimes, and still manages to seal it. Pau's putback was huge too.

[Nark Order]

Kobe Bryant takes far too many shots for my liking. Less field goal attempts and more assists would do his team more justice. Especially considering that the Lakers are fucking stacked this year.

[SammyG]

Pau should get more looks, I agree with that. Bynum needs to get less, more for Pau, and more for Lamar.

[Nark Order]

Yeah. In theory, the Lakers should've destroyed the Kings with all the talent they have on that team. Tyreke Evans is kind of a monster though.

[SammyG]

I love Tyreke. I really do. I like Donte Green and Jason Thompson as well. Mostly because of that freestyle rap on youtube, but still. Tyreke was awesome in Memphis, and I have always been a fan. Lakers play down to the level of competition, which is retarded. Oh well. Still got the W.

[Buzzkill]

I literally hate everything about the Lakers except Pau Gasol

[SammyG]

You can't hate Shannon Brown. You can hate Adam Morrison, Jordan Farmar, Kobe, Artest. You can't hate Bynum. Who else... Lamar is awesome. How can you hate Fish? You can kill Vujacic if you want, he is a piece of shit.

[McLegend]

I literally hate everything about the Lakers except Pau Gasol

He's really good, but how can you like him?

He's not very likeable.

[Juan]

wooo Celtics lose to the Clippers, giving the Lakers the best record in the NBA again

[SammyG]

Hilarious. B-DIDDY!

[Brujesino]

I literally hate everything about the Lakers except Pau Gasol

pau is awsome

the only other laker i like is jordan farmar put him in a run n gun sytem like the warriors or the knicks and we would be great

everyone i either hate or are really overrated

[SammyG]

Good. I want farmar, morrison, and vujabitch off this team. Take them, anyone.

[Brujesino]

nobody wants vaginachic

farmar and morrison more likely since they are expring contracts

[Juan]

All I know is that the Lakers need a competent/consistent back-up point guard. Mitch needs to make some moves.

[owenbrown]

wooo Celtics lose to the Clippers, giving the Lakers the best record in the NBA again

Fox Sports on MSN homepage headline calls it a "major upset". It's DECEMBER!

[SammyG]

There's been some speculation about trading Farmar/Morrison for Calderon..

[Brujesino]

There's been some speculation about trading Farmar/Morrison for Calderon..

:lol:

calderon plays horrible defense..worse then fisher

to fit the triangle you need a pg that can defend and hit some open 3's calderon can hit the 3's but he is a horrible defender

[Juan]

Yeah, Calderon isn't much of an improvement over Fish.

I'd like to see someone like Nate Robinson come in.

Anywho, this is isn't even a real rumor, it's a comment that Bill Simmons made in one of his articles.

[Juan]

ESPN:

The Houston Rockets (http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/clubhouse?team=hou) have granted Tracy McGrady (http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/players/profile?playerId=532) an indefinite leave from the team and will work with his representatives to find a new home for the seven-time All-Star via trade, according to sources close to the process.<!--NEW:-->



Sources told ESPN.com on Monday that phone discussions between Rockets general manager Daryl Morey, coach Rick Adelman and one of McGrady's agents, Arn Tellem, led to an agreement that both sides would work together in pursuit of a palatable trade before the league's annual trading deadline on Feb. 18.


The Rockets, sources said, are adamant about not buying out the remainder of McGrady's $23 million expiring contract and enabling him to become a free agent during the season. Yet, they also remain unprepared to promise the extended minutes McGrady has been seeking.


Sources said the sides agreed Monday that the best compromise is letting McGrady leave the team to work out on his own in hopes that a deal can be struck and so his teammates and coaches will be spared from the distraction of daily questions about McGrady's status.

[DaveWadding]

:wave:

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

I really don't like Tony Allen

[McLegend]

I have a sick feeling that the Sixers might be a playoff team with Iverson and everyone healthy.

That's not good.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Tony Allen comes out of the game Celtics start playing better, WEIRD

[Brujesino]

Tony Allen comes out of the game Celtics start playing better, WEIRD

should garnett be embarrased after this game?

couldnt post up ellis,radman or maggatte

warriors win,with a healthy team we can finally start doing some damage in the laegue although after our bad start the playoffs don seem very likely

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Everyone should be embarrassed, Celtics played awful defense all game. I mean I know he is good, but Monte Ellis looked like a first ballot Hall of Famer all game.

[SammyG]

Jesus, Lakers get crushed in Phoenix, but the Celtics still give them the best record in the league still.

[Brujesino]

Jesus, Lakers get crushed in Phoenix, but the Celtics still give them the best record in the league still.

ESPN.com reported Saturday that the Washington Wizards (http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/clubhouse?team=was) had reached out to the Rockets in an exploratory manner about a possible Gilbert Arenas (http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/players/profile?playerId=974)-for-McGrady swap, but Houston has no interest in such a deal. Arenas ranks as one of the league's most difficult players to move with four seasons left after this one on a mammoth $111 million contract and a history of knee problems to rival McGrady's.

[Brujesino]

lakers got lucky with the bailout calls for kobe 16 ft?the worse ones were during the last 3 minutes of the game

anyways rockets are smart not to trade for arenas his contract is too big for a injury prone player

[Emperor Smeat]

That would be one hell of a crappy trade in terms of how injury-prone and high cap/salary wise both players are right now. Both are very talented as players though.

At the same time, makes sense the only realistic trade for the Rockets would involve taking a big salary player.

[SammyG]

lakers are pissing me off. playing awful. Thank god for Mamba last night.

Goddamn the Celts can't make shit right now. was 13-12 Suns now 24-12.

No Pierce, No KG, No complaints from me.

[DaveWadding]

Only team in the NBA to have wins over the Celtics and Lakers whattttup.

[Hanso Amore]

If I was the Hornets GM I would try to send Peja/picks to Houston for t Mac and get the wing CP3 Never has had

If I was the Hornets GM I would try to send Peja/picks to Houston for t Mac and get the wing CP3 Never has had

i dont see why the rockets would do that

rockets need a temporary big for this year maybe for the future since yao is always getting hurt

if its temporary trading t-mac to the bulls of brad miller and some fillers would be great for the rockets

[OssMan]

lol @ Anderson Varejao first career 3 pointer

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

THE CELTICS ARE FALLING APART!! THE WORLD IS OVER!!

[Champion of Europa]

I was at Pacers vs. Grizzlies tonight. Fuck, first the Pacers have a hard time closing out games where they do well and go on a huge losing streak. Now it's like they forget how to play basketball till the 3rd quarter and can't quite close the deficit.

Luther Head went off like crazy tonight, which had me very happy. I have no clue why we started Solomon Jones, though. Roy Hibbert is so much better. Despite coming off the bench, Hibbert had 25 points 13 rebounds. Yet it seemed like whenever he'd get on fire, O'Brien would bring in Jones to suck some dicks.

Hopefully we can make a strong run when we get everyone healthy. Granger, Murphy, Hansborough, and Foster were all hurt for tonight.

But I'm still psyched, got free courtside tickets for Pacer vs. Suns on the 13th.

[Juan]

I really can't stand Dahntay Jones. I watch tons of Kings game since I live in the area, and something about him just bugged the shit out of me.

[Juan]

Some guy from the insidehoops forums is claiming that he saw a Lakers/Hornets trade rumor discussed on NBA TV...

Just saw on NBAtv that Lakers and Hornets are in preliminary talks about trading Bynum/Farmar/1st for Chris Paul.. Lakers also want the Hornet's 2nd round pick that seems to be the dealbreaker.... idk what do yall think?

Are you serious right now? This is the strongest run they've ever made. We have a shot at John Frigging Wall. A legit shot! Ofcourse Bird will fuck it up and pick that white guy from USC or something lol.

I hope we lost 20 straight. I mean, if we become one of the worst 3 teams, we have a major shot at John Wall. I'll buy season tickets if we get John Wall. I'll let him impregnate my mother also.

[RP]

We're talking about the best player to come out since Lebron. Imagine AI going to a Philly team with a Scottie Pippen type player on it.

I mean, this only happens once. We need to lose baby. JUST LOSE BABY!!!! MORE HEAD!!!! MORE LUTHER HEAD!

[RP]

Please give us John Wall. Please. Please lord. Pleaseeeeeeeeee!

[SammyG]

Bynum/Farmar/ 1st rounder for CP3? Do it. Well, I dunno actually. Bynum might be a bit much. Can we make it Walton/Morrison/Farmar/Mbenga and a 1st rounder?

[Buzzkill]

lol Blazers lose Aldridge but still beat the clips. Juwan Howard played 37 minutes lol

[Buzzkill]

Bynum/Farmar/ 1st rounder for CP3? Do it. Well, I dunno actually. Bynum might be a bit much. Can we make it Walton/Morrison/Farmar/Mbenga and a 1st rounder?
Only way NO does this is if they get an exciting player in return. Luke Walton is not that player.

[Emperor Smeat]

New Orleans is also a good team still fighting for a playoff spot. They are not like Memphis with the Gasol trade or Seattle/Minnesota in the Boston trades where the main issue was salary dumps to rebuild the team.

Making that trade would end up hurting the Hornets contender chances for a few years while Lakers keep locking away the West for a few more years (historically they own about 1/2 the West appearances in NBA Finals).

[Buzzkill]

NO is desperately trying to shed salary, and there is no chance they make the playoffs this year, so I wouldn't put it past them to try and get rid of at least David West, if not CP3.

That said, there is zero chance CP3 goes to LA (not like Kobe could handle having somebody else dominate the ball anyway)

[Emperor Smeat]

Yeah if they were to trade, it would be dumb to trade him to a dominate team in the West since it would be most likely New Orleans would face that team if they were to make the playoffs in the 1st round.

[Brujesino]

Bynum/Farmar/ 1st rounder for CP3? Do it. Well, I dunno actually. Bynum might be a bit much. Can we make it Walton/Morrison/Farmar/Mbenga and a 1st rounder?

others have chosen to be nice to your proposed trade idea

however i will choose a different path you are a fucking retard why the fuck would N.O give up the best point gaurd in the league for a bunch of scrubs?

take your stupid idea and shove it up your ass right fucking now

[Buzzkill]

lol assman this season just turned epic for you guys

[ClockShot]

It appears that Agent Zero is not afraid to flash some cold steel.

[Brujesino]

they could easily void arenas contract or heavily fine him

gil is a idiot he whent from being cool with his blogs and stuff to being a dumbass carrying guns around

[RatedGSuperstar]

This just reinforces the fact that they need to re-name the team the Bullets.

[Emperor Smeat]

He's ending up just like Sean Alexander was with Seattle in the NFL. Once he got the big money contract, his quality/determination dropped by a lot. Although unlike Alexander, Arenas was becoming injury prone before the new deal so its more of the owner's fault for giving him $100 million to begin with.

I wont live in Indiana by the time the draft goes down, so it doesn't much matter to me if John Wall goes to Indiana. I'm rooting for a good season this year.

Wowwwwwwwwwwwww this Crittenton/Arenas shit is nuts

[Buzzkill]

lol blazers lose steve blake to pneumonia :(

8 of our 9 top scorers from last year are out with injury.

Nate Robinson drops 41 after sitting out the previous 14 games, hahaha.

Also, TYREKE! tonight! against LA though :(

[Buzzkill]

how is it that everybody but andre miller is getting injured :'(

[SammyG]

Jesus Christ, Lakers. getting destroyed, with no tyreke.

[SammyG]

Fucking Fisher sucks. Retire already! 1-11 in the first half. Why he would even take 11 shots in a game is beyond me.

[McLegend]

how is it that everybody but andre miller is getting injured :'(

He is never injured. I think he has the longest active players consecutive games streak or however you say it.

[RP]

Fucking Fisher sucks. Retire already! 1-11 in the first half. Why he would even take 11 shots in a game is beyond me.

If the Lakers lose to the Kings without Evans, then they are not going to the Finals. Sorry.

BTW. I've adopted the Kings as me 2010 favorite team now. I'll be rooting for them. I love Tyreke Evans. I wish Indiana had him, but I really hope we get John Wall.

[Buzzkill]

Hey Rectal Pertruder are you excited at the prospect of the indiana pacers getting john wall

Yes, my pants are getting smaller as I type about it.

Greatest of all time.

[DaveWadding]

Greatest of all time.

http://rigsamarole.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/michael_jordan014.jpg

[DaveWadding]

It really blows my mind how often defenses blow their coverage on Kobe in that situation. Put 2 guys on him at minimum. Deny him the ball and seal him off. Make someone else take that shot.

Doesnt help that Kobe almost gave that defender a free safety style tackle or that the refs didnt see that his left heel was just barely out of bounds.

[Londoner]

Watched that game last night, i dunno how Kobe does it. Was looking forward to seeing the lakers lose for once. (not sure how many they have lost but i'm yet to see it happen) Can't deny his brilliance though.

[SammyG]

Wadding, you are retarded. That is a flop. Watch the replay, then tell me that he honestly pushed him away, come on now. Plus, it was not out of bounds at all.

[DaveWadding]

1) why would you flop when you are guarding one of the best buzzer beating shotmakers in the game? Please logically explain this to me.

2) Kobe CLEARLY pushes off Casspi with his elbow.

3) His right foot (the one you see) is just in front of the line, his left is obscured but definitely further back. Any further back than where his right foot is is definitely out of bounds. You tell me.

PS I watched the video about 6 times.

[SammyG]

Watched the video again, and still think you are retarded.

[Juan]

Dave Wadding hating on the Lakers and Kobe??? This is shocking

[Buzzkill]

SammyG you are naming Kobe the greatest of all time and you're calling DaveWadding retarded?

[Buzzkill]

Also, Blazers just layethed the smackdown on the Warriors with

No Oden
No Aldridge
No Przybilla
No Outlaw
No Batum
No Rudy
No Blake

NO PROBLEM

[McLegend]

It really does look like he is out of bounds though.

Good shot though.

[Juan]

The refs reviewed the play to see if the shot was off on time and to see if he stepped out of bounds.

Kobe's heel was over the out of bounds line, but it was not touching the hardwood.

[DaveWadding]

The refs reviewed the play to see if the shot was off on time and to see if he stepped out of bounds.

Kobe's heel was over the out of bounds line, but it was not touching the hardwood.

Ok, that's fine. To be fair I really couldnt see his left foot and he might have had it at just the right angle. If they can't see it, they can't see it.


IT is still ridiculous to say he didn't push Casspi or that Casspi would "flop" in that situation though.

After watching again, his left foot might be right on the line. Calling it out would have been a ticky tack call.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

I thought he shoved him but I didn't think he was out of bounds. I haven't seen the replay though. Honestly it doesn't really matter if it was a shove or not because they aren't gonna make that call anyway. It was just a good shot, not much you can do about that. I mean the Kings forced Kobe to take a 3 pointer as he falling out of bounds, it's not like they let him get to the rack or something.

[Juan]

It was Rodriguez, and the Kings TV crew even admitted it was a flop. They said Rodriguez couldn't have picked a worse time to flop.

[DaveWadding]

True. A shove is a shove though.

Look, I give Kobe credit, and I have before on these buzzer beaters (i.e. the one vs Milwaukee) but the shove cheapens it. He bailed Paussy out on that pass nicely though.

[Skippord]

why do the Kings have so many white guys?

[Buzzkill]

Not sure but its been that way for a while...

Think about it, back in '02 they were rockin

Jason Williams
Hedo Turkoglu
Vlade Divac,
Peja Stojacavich
Mike Bibby (mostly white)
Doug Chrisite (mostly white)
Scott Pollard

Crazy

[Skippord]

Lakers up by 37 points right now against the Mavs

[SammyG]

Great win but... Pau gets hurt again :(

[Brujesino]

rafeer alston and the nets agree to a buyout

front runner for alston is the heat

also the warriors waived mikki moore

[Schlomey]

favorite team this year: Portland Trailblazers. Proof that rebuilding and being patient works. I LOVE the fact that their major stars have been in and out of action but they have enough depth to still be a massive threat in the division.

Easily the most fun to watch underdog team to watch.





Still think Bulls vs Celtics last year was the best series of the decade.

[Brujesino]

Still think Bulls vs Celtics last year was the best series of the decade.

um warriors vs mavericks??!?!?!?!?!

celtics were missing key player that the only reason they made it to 7 games

plus the bulls should not have even been in the playoffs they should thank the weak eastern confrence

[SammyG]

Dunno, those two are pretty close.

Gasol out about 5-6 games :( Ron Ron back today though

[Emperor Smeat]

Celtics v Lakers in 2008 NBA Finals probably had the best setup of any series in the 1st decade mostly because of massive hype, team histories, biggest NBA rivarly, and a retro feeling from when those 2 teams played each other in the 1980s.

Mavs vs Warriors sort of lacked the "David-Goliath" feeling because most analysts predicted the upset from how "weak" the Mavs felt as the top team in the West.

[SammyG]

I dunno man, that Celts-Bulls series was absolutely insane.

[Emperor Smeat]

Biggest disappoint is easily the Cavs-Spurs in how NBA hyped the series and besides the 1st game, Spurs dominated with the sweep.

[RP]

ok Indiana. Please dont do one of your ' Come out and play really hard and upset a top contending team for the hell of it ' moves tonight. Just take the loss and go home. Think John Wall.


Johnnnnnnn Walllllllllllllllll

[McLegend]

Man this Wizards team is really bad. They can easily win the lottery.

Reallly want Gilbert Arenas to go away so they can go on a win streak.

[McLegend]

And the Sixers lose to that terrible Wizards team.

I love it.

[RP]

FUCK YOU INDIANA!

[SammyG]

LOL RP! But seriously, Indiana can make the playoffs in the East.

[Champion of Europa]

PAAAAAAACEEEEEEEEE SHOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

Was seriously so psyched about tonight's win. Hibbert played like a beast. One of my favorite players in the NBA. Just an exciting big man.

Joy of Roy.

[Brujesino]

how stupid are you to foul somone 30 feet away on a last second shot!!!

monta you lost us the damn game!!! he shot a airball but you still ran at him:mad:

[DaveWadding]

Damn. fuckin Kings are feisty.

[Juan]

Have I ever mentioned how much I hate Luis Scola? :o

[Juan]

how stupid are you to foul somone 30 feet away on a last second shot!!!

I just saw the highlight of the play. Brutal

[SammyG]

Was watching the Denver game on a seperate stream. fucking idiot warriors.

LO was huge today. 1 assist away from a triple double. Massive game, 17 points, 19 boards, 9 dimes

[Hanso Amore]

Bye Bye Arenas!

I feel bad for Washington. Lock him down for 7 years that kill any cap space you have, and he never fucking plays.

[McLegend]

Now they can void his contract. So that's good.

[Buzzkill]

Only if he is charged with a felony I believe

[McLegend]

Yeah it's going to be really hard, but they might try even if he isn't charged.

[Juan]

Fuck. We better not lose to the god damned Clippers.

[Juan]

It's over :mad:

[SammyG]

we just lost to the Clippers.

[Juan]

Gonna get drunk now to forget about this loss.

WTF was Phil Jackson thinking sitting Kobe for so long in the fourth??

[Juan]

Phil got outsmarted by MIKE DUNLEAVY

[SammyG]

Yeah, retarded coaching by Phil. Oh well. Still the best record in the league.

[Londoner]

Just been watching the replay of the lakers game, hahaha. More games like that, please!

[McLegend]

I must say about Kobe that he does handle himself in interviews and the public much better then he use to. He's still not funny, but he has more of a sense of humor then Donovan McNabb. So I give him credit for that.

He is still a bitch for being a Mets and Eagles fans though.

Just pick a fuckin city Asshole.

[Brujesino]

this is why the lakers need pau gasol he is the key to winning a title again and my favorite player on that team

that being said i hope hes out for the year

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

That was the most ridiculous tip I've ever seen. How the hell do the Celtics pull that off with that little time left? Miami also blew it big time but not defending the inbounder.

[McLegend]

It's seriously unreal how the Sixers just collapse in every game.

Number 1 pick is possible. Iverson has been a good pickup from a basketball perspective. He's probably been the team's best player.

[Juan]

The Rose Garden curse continues :mad:

[SammyG]

Fucking stupid, I know

[Juan]

I'm not one to ever say the refs have their hand in the game, but the discrepancy between Lakers' 5 FTs and Blazers' 32 FTs was the greatest the NBA since March 14, 2006. come on

i'm not gonna lie though, it didn't help that the Lakers played like crap.

[McLegend]

Kevin Duarnt is so good.

I'm so glad the Sixers traded for Andre Miller which enabled them to get Thaddeus Young.

[SammyG]

Tonight... the possible return of.. LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUKE Walton

[SammyG]

Kobe 1-14 in the first half.

[SammyG]

I love Shannon Brown. I don't care how good Farmar did, I want him gone.

[SammyG]

Bynum for Bosh rumors..

[Buzzkill]

I will jump off a bridge of Bosh goes to the Lakers

[McLegend]

It'd be extremely gay.

[McLegend]

That was a bad Sixers win tonight.

[Champion of Europa]

Oh man, that was a good win vs. Toronto tonight. It was insane to be at live. It was such a close game and the crowd was so into it. Granger is back in full force. I'm so pumped.

Really confused about not playing Hibbert the entire second half, though.

[McLegend]

Kevin Durant with another 30 point game. It's unreal how good he is going to be.

He'll win multiple titles as well.

[SammyG]

Not on that team.

[Brujesino]

Not on that team.

if his team continues to grow...yes he can win on that team

Russell Westbrook is a good pg, james harden can grow to be his #2

all they need is a decent bench and a good defensive center

this team is built for hte future durant will go down as the best player in this decade

[SammyG]

MEHHHH, don't see it really.

lol if Bosh joins the Lakers. Unstoppable.

[McLegend]

Not on that team.

With a young nucleuse of Jeff Green, Russel Westbrook, and James Hardin I think you'd be wrong.

Not to mention they have good GM who knows what he is doing. At least 2 titles this decade.

[SammyG]
