BruceW Posted June 2, 2005 Report Posted June 2, 2005 Yeah Man, That was WICKEEEED. Even with the cup he went down like a ton of bricks.... Ouch And out of three referees, nobody saw it. Damn Quote
Noj Posted June 2, 2005 Report Posted June 2, 2005 Gee, Haven't you noticed.... The Pistons are the champs..... The Pistons almost always keep anybody under 100 ppg.. ← During the regular season, the Pistons held opponents to 89.5 ppg During the regular season, the Spurs held opponents to 88.4 ppg ← There you have it. The Pistons would have locked the Suns down with that stifling defense. Quote

The Spurs have an even more stifling defense than the Pistons (playing much tougher opponents than the Pistons) and still gave up 15-16 ppg more against the Suns than normal. Why would the Pistons be different? Guy Quote
Soulstation1 Posted June 2, 2005 Report Posted June 2, 2005 the suns lost cuz they don't have a big man stat had a huge series but duncan did what he wanted Quote

And why are we discussing the Suns, they no longer count. Quote

Guy Berger Posted June 14, 2005 Report Posted June 14, 2005 Kind of unrelated, but who is coming up with this "Phil Jackson might coach the Knicks next year" crap? How much did Isiah Thomas pay Jackson for that meeting? Jackson has a higher likelihood of coaching an NHL team than coaching the Knicks. Guy WRONG!! Phil Jackson's playing career went through New York and they won championships in the duration. He has strong ties to the Knicks. (to answer your question, I don't know who started it) He would be a bigger fool to go BACK to the Lakers after they turned him down on an extension and resign. AND....... there is another factor..... and it is not Jeannie Buss......hope he does not subject himself to all the crud because of his affection for her; there are better coaching situations available to him. If he comes back to LA, wins a title, they will just can him again period. B-) ← Thank god for the search function... Jackson back as Lakers coach Quote
Noj Posted June 14, 2005 Report Posted June 14, 2005 Bewildering! If Phil had simply been kept in the first place, we'd still have Shaq. Also, Phil has the best winning percentage of any coach in history, I'm shocked he would risk it to rejoin the Lakers. Maybe he knows something we don't! Good news overall! Quote

Tjazz Posted June 14, 2005 Report Posted June 14, 2005 Jackson - 3 years for around $30 million. Money talks. He doesn't have to win, but he can spend the money. Course, health-wise, maybe he'll be dead before 3 years. Shaq wants the MONEY too. After his last year in Miami at $30 million, let's see how happy he is, if there's no extention with at least $25/year (for 3 years). Quote
BruceW Posted June 14, 2005 Report Posted June 14, 2005 (edited) Okay here is a stretch, I thought Jeannie Buss was not a factor (Phil's girlfriend) but maybe I was way off on that concept. With Jeannie's latest TV appearances she has constantly stated she was looking for a diamond ring for her finger (wedding). Jerry Buss does not have a son. They did not want to extend Phil's last contract. They did not want to give him part of the franchise. But....... If Phil returns to Lakers and marries Jeannie (they are serious), he becomes heir apparent to the Buss fortune. OR at least when/if Jerry passes (he is not in the best of health), Jeannie will make him Chief Executive Officer but since he will be married in California, COMMUNITY PROPERTY, duh!!

BruceW Posted June 14, 2005 Report Posted June 14, 2005 Jesus, As I write, she is on ESPN making the very statement I was talking about, wishing for that big wedding ring. Bruce Quote
Soulstation1 Posted June 14, 2005 Report Posted June 14, 2005 dr buss has at least 2 sons, if not 3. Quote

Bruce ← Community Property? Don't get carried away. It's only for your income/earnings while married, not your assets. Phil's not going to outlive Jeannie. I don't think any other coaching job in the NBA would have paid Phil as much as the Lakers offered. Quote

BruceW Posted June 15, 2005 Report Posted June 15, 2005 Nope, Phil will will be entitled to community property unless they sign a prenup. Unless you are a lawyer in Los Angeles, I will stick with that interpretation that has been defined so many times in Los Angeles courts. Pistons won tonight. Quote
