Ok back to series that aren't fukkin boring:

If Kobe's gonna take less shots, Lamar has to get the extra touches. Not Kwame, not Bynum, maybe a bit more for Luke as long as it's inside.

I like how the Suns are acting like their plan was to wear down Kobe. BS. If he didn't get tired, we'd have won and he was only tired cos he got no rest not cos he was shooting too much.

I saw Nash on TNT just now saying basically saying Kobe's 35 in 3 doesn't phase them. Why mention it if it means nothing? The last thing they want is Kobe being aggressive and PJ/Kobe better not fall into this trap. Our results this year are very good with Kobe being aggressive. They just have to give him a rest in the 2nd half...

If I was on the Suns, I'd want Kobe shooting less not 33 times. Why anyone thinks we are worse off with him shooting more is beyond me..

So the only series that's not boring is watching Kobe try to drop 1000 on the Suns?
 
Heh, seriously. That's the shittiest and most boring gameplan in the whole NBA. Stand around and watch Kobe go against the whole opposing team. It sickens me. But I guess the Spurs are the boring team. What's that shit about sharing the ball?

was
****ing
LOUD

Holy shit I thought Saturday was insane...it was like they took Saturday's crowd and turned up the volume.


One thing that pissed me off...

THE WHOLE LOWER BOWL WAS GIVEN RED SHIRTS




...still....over 25% of the crowd was in their normal shirts during the whole game.


Assholes, I wish the corporate assholes would just sit at the bar and let others take their seats.
 
I can't change my avatar because it's got us this far, but I have a way for you to jump on the Raptors bandwagon, Konex. You're good luck now.

Go for it.
 
:lol Mig,I never saw the pic with you.

"CHUCK GAYES

"HOW THE *beep* DOES HE GET AWAY WITH THAT **** AT THE FREE THROW LINE? HE'S CLEARLY FAKING THE SHOT AND THAT'S A VIOLATION OF THE RULES. *beep* RETARDED OFFICIALS. ONCE YOU MOVE THE BALL IN FOWARD MOTION YOU CAN'T *beep* STOP. IT'S RIGHT IN THE RULE BOOK. RETARDS. *beep*."

http://jazzfanz.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=22285

Fighting with themselves in this thread and making fun of chinese people.
 
:lol did Konex just call the Rockets/Jazz boring?

:lol

It has to be a former Backstreet boy Fifty,Konex wont use that
 
Did anyone else hear about AK-47 crying after games? Or did I just make that up in my head since he seems like such a psycho (these guys on this warriors forum seem to want to trade for him, j-rich and foyle for ak-47). I'm trying to tell them that this guy is insane lol

I heard this on PTI I think.
The former All-Star forward had nearly broken down after practice Sunday while discussing his minimal role in the Jazz's series-opening loss, dabbing tears from his eyes with a towel while coaches and teammates watched warily from a distance.

What other gameplan do they have? Hope the rest of the flotsam and jetsam on the roster actually ****ing do something?
 
I hate blaming games on the referees but that game was bs. McGrady almost shot more free throws than the entire Jazz team. I think Rockets are still a better team but the Jazz should have been able to pull that one out.

Maybe if the Jazz wouldn't hack so much they wouldn't have so many fouls called against them.

They were hacking just as much today as they were Game 1, except they weren't calling them against Utah in game 1...and Rockets won anyway.

Of course I'm going to sound biased because I'm a Heat fan and I had to hear all the talk about game 5 of NBA Finals, but just because one player shoots (insert X free throws) more than (insert opposing team) does NOT mean the game was one-sided in officiating...or I mean, determine the outcome. I thought houston was clearly the better team, and if Okur didn't suck and AK47 actually did something to help Booz, then we'd be talking a different ballgame. It wasn't even that close to me.

From ESPN's recap:

"Each of the Houston Rockets have to make 10 consecutive free throws before they are allowed to leave the practice floor every day."

One team Shaq will never play for is a Van gundy team...oh wait...
 
The Magic are playing pretty well, but the Pistons depth is just too much for us. I'd love it if we could take 1 at home, but a sweep wouldnt surprise me. Ahh well. :(

YOU CANT HANDLE THE TRUTH!


I think it might be some sore of heat compress being applied and cooling cream,it look likes whatever is going on is meant to help his lower back or else he wouldnt be smiling,so it must feel good.

It was just a pic posted and it had no info with it.

edit-" Tracy McGrady #1 of the Houston Rockets get treatment from asst. trainer Michelle Leget during Sundays off day practice at the Toyota Center on April 22, 2007 in Houston, Texas."

Not Tmac getting his ass shaved like Dm thought.

So basically T-Mac's ass is sore after games (not that there is anything wrong with it) and DM likes his mens to have a shaved ass.
 
Yea that about sums it up.
 
Mig,did you see Okur mouth "What the f*ck after" that happened? :lol Dude didnt even know what hit him.

Deke knocks people out,Yao dazes them into confusion.

"Computer Games

They are capable of absorbing me completely. I can play a lot and for a long time. It even happens that I forget about sleep and food. Sometimes I even set an alarm clock to remind me to stop. My favorite games: Diablo, various simulators of city and park constructions and strategy. For example, Age of Empire, Warcraft, Starcraft, Heroes of Might and Magic."


http://www.kirilenko.ru/?lang=eng&c...ubchapter=masha

The only shortcoming of my husband is that he loves his computer. He can sit at the computer days in and days out, and sometimes it scares me. We had at one time settled a contract: if he didn’t use the computer I promised not to drink my red wine. Andrei does not drink at all, not even a drop, and he does not know how enjoyable it can be. He believes alcohol is harmful in any quantities. Now we found a consensus: he plays with his computer a little, and I drink a glass of red wine at dinner.

Actually it wasn't the entire lower bowl...just the seats on the side that would constantly get on TV. If you were on the ends, you were shirtless.

The following is an open letter to Tracy McGrady

Dear Tracy,

Congratulations on winning the first two games of this series. Kudos, Tracy -- you deserve them. In amassing 54 points, 12 assists and 14 rebounds in Houston's victories, you are, arguably, the top playoff performer so far, someone worthy of prime real estate on SportsCenter and a headline in the Houston Chronicle.

But please, Tracy, don't let up. Don't let your guard down the way you did in '03, when you effectively declared your Orlando Magic team ready for the second round when you were up 3-1, only to stumble and lose the series. You don't want egg on your face again. You know what it's like to win the first two games of a series then falter. You did it in 2005! Remember when you stole two games from the Mavericks on their home floor? Only to lose four of the next five games and get home well before the weather started to turn? You have become Mr. First Round, a tag not unlike a baseball player being anointed Mr. April.

You are too good for that Tracy. That baseline jumper you made late in the fourth quarter Monday night, there aren't 10 players in this league that could make that shot. The way you kept battling despite a woeful (9-for-28) shooting performance was tremendous. The way you showed confidence in Yao Ming -- who wasn't having the best night himself -- proves you are developing into the type of team-first leader Houston has been craving.

Just get through these next few games, Tracy. Don't expect Utah to just roll over. Jerry Sloan has been in far too many dogfights to do that. Don't expect Mehmet Okur to suffer through another 2-for-9 shooting night. Don't expect Carlos Boozer to stop taking it to Yao and the rest of the Rockets frontcourt. Clearly Carlos has exposed a hole in your interior defense. Maybe spend the next few days trying to shore that up, huh?

I believe in you Tracy. You're a guy who deserves a break. You got a raw deal in Orlando (though I contend that if you never left Toronto your career might have gone in an entirely different direction). You deserve some playoff success. Just don't let anyone tell you that you have this series in the bank. Don't read the stories about how well you match up with Dallas in the second round. Pretend there is no second round. Pretend this is the last series of your career.

Get it done, Tracy. Just once, get it done.

Wow, im sorry im not as "known" like you, i guess it only matters if you have a custom tag. /eyeroll

The fact remains, he was being a dick acting like only Kobe and the Lakers matter, when Kobes team is going to be gone in the first round.
 
Ninja Scooter is the forum jester,a Michael Rosenbaum fan,and Lakers fan...

dont take what hes says so personal.



Also everything Cloudy/Konex said is cause he's a Kobe whore,nothing more,but we still <3 him.
