Noj Posted May 22, 2006 Report Posted May 22, 2006 Kurt Thomas is back for the Suns, which doesn't bode well for the Clips. Quote
Big Al Posted May 22, 2006 Report Posted May 22, 2006 Wish I could put some money on the Spurs. Talk about a sure deal.... The ol' reverse jinx, Al? I thought about that, but no: I've said all along, if this goes to seven games, SA wins. I gotta find me a bookie.... Quote
JSngry Posted May 22, 2006 Report Posted May 22, 2006 My gut tells me that the Mavs have actually got a good chance tonight, especially if Jet feels the need to pay penance to his teammates. Game 6 was a display of the "old Mavericks" limpdickness. Other team isn't hitting? NO PROBLEM - we'll not hit either! Avery's been working on that bullshit all year, sometimes with better results than others. Tonight's the night to see if anybody's really learned anything this year. They can win. Whether they will or not... Quote
Soulstation1 Posted May 22, 2006 Author Report Posted May 22, 2006 odds for tonight spurs - 3 suns - 4 with that info my picks SA - 3 (my least fav NBA team) i hope the mavs prove me mf wrong LAC + 4 LAC has the better chance of winning on the road than the mavs i've gotta a feeling one road team will win tonight Quote
BruceW Posted May 22, 2006 Report Posted May 22, 2006 (edited) Kurt Thomas is back for the Suns, which doesn't bode well for the Clips. Didn't know Kurt was back but it doesn't matter now, Gamin' Kaman will get to dominate the post. Kurt has to have some rust. Generally trying to come back in the 7th game of a series does not work out for the player. Edited May 22, 2006 by BruceW Quote
Soulstation1 Posted May 22, 2006 Author Report Posted May 22, 2006 WTF MF Pistons - 5.5 points vs heat on tomorrow's game heat might win the first game Quote
Soulstation1 Posted May 23, 2006 Author Report Posted May 23, 2006 dallas is kicking the spurs mf asses Quote
Aggie87 Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 no kidding! could they have started out any better? That's about as good of a 1st quarter as you're ever gonna see, offensively. Spurs seem to have forgotten how to play defense, which they WERE good at this year. I'm kinda surprised Pop hasn't tried putting another big man on the court alongside Duncan. At least help a little with the fast little guys cutting to the basket, maybe. Quote
Aggie87 Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 (edited) Hats off to the Mavericks for a great win tonight! I think this has been the best series in the playoffs this year, so far. Good luck vs. the Clips/Suns, and then hopefully versus the Pistons/Heat. Regarding the Spurs, I think Van Exel didn't give them anything in the playoffs. Neither did Horry really. Finley was a solid pickup, but the Spurs didn't have enough firepower beyond their 3 stars to overcome the Mavs and their surprisingly deep bench. That said, I don't completely understand the decision to basically try to beat the Mavs at their style of ball. The Spurs' bread-and-butter is their defense, and they essentially abandoned it versus the Mavs. They looked like they were trying to play Phoenix Suns defense! Go all the way, Mavs!

Noj Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 The Spurs' bench combined for two, count 'em, two points in the entire game plus overtime. There's your ball game. Go Clips! Quote
Soulstation1 Posted May 23, 2006 Author Report Posted May 23, 2006 seemed like the spurs were gonna pull it out Quote
md655321 Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 Well that pretty much wraps up the Pistons championship. Thanks Mavs! Quote
slide_advantage_redoux Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 I thought that the Mavs were sunk as I watched Ginobli driving to the basket with time running out in regulation. When the ball fell away harmlessly, I could see the life drain out of Duncan's face. While almost every player in the league whines and carries on when called for fouls, it is Duncan whose demeanor annoys me the most. What a whiney ass. Go Mavs! Quote
doubleM Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 Well that pretty much wraps up the Pistons championship. Thanks Mavs! Nah. Prince has been solid, but I think that the West can give 'em a run for their money. Go Mavs/Suns!!! Quote
Big Al Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 (edited) All I can say is, TAKE THAT, CHARLES MF BARKLEY!!!! Now shut your ass up! That was a helluva game last night, and I really thought the Spurs were gonna provide the Mavs with the biggest upset in Mavs history. It was a nailbiter all the way. Best playoff series EVER, and I would've said that had the Mavs lost (although losing after a 20-point lead would have REALLY bit the big one). Oh yeah, and Fuck YOU, Skip Bayless!!!! Edited May 23, 2006 by Big Al Quote
JSngry Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 it is Duncan whose demeanor annoys me the most. Duncan is a great player and teammate, and I'd have him on any team of mine w/o a moment's hesitation, but the man has a turtlehead. It's Tony Parker whose ass I would like to stick a broomstick up. Motherfukkin' snideass little bitch. Quote
Aggie87 Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 (edited) Man, can't you guys be gracious winners?? Cuban trashes the River Walk, calls the Spurs fans the worst in the NBA (they seem too mellow to me), and here you guys go, less than 24 hrs after surviving Game 7 (Spurs COULDA won at the end of regulation), and y'all are trashing Duncan and Parker. Enjoy your series against your next opponent, jeez... Edited May 23, 2006 by Aggie87 Quote
JSngry Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 Never have liked Tony Parker, never will. Ever. Duncan, otoh, I dig. Very much in fact. The guy's a trip, what with his constant mind games. I dig athletes who are constantly mental. Seriously. But he does have a turtlehead. No way around that. Still, he's on my team anytime. Quote
Joe Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 (edited) it is Duncan whose demeanor annoys me the most.

Motherfukkin' snideass little bitch. I reserve my sports hatred (which is not like real hatred or anything) for Manu Ginobili. I'm guessing there are some folks in San Antonio who aren't too happy with him and his toreador antics either now that this series is in the books. Edited May 23, 2006 by Joe Quote
Big Al Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 Man, can't you guys be gracious winners?? Cuban trashes the River Walk, calls the Spurs fans the worst in the NBA (they seem too mellow to me), Cuban's biggest problem is that hole right under his nose. Just when you think you can start taking him seriously again, he goes and shoots it off again. Has he not seen the wasteland where HIS team plays???? Quote
Soulstation1 Posted May 23, 2006 Author Report Posted May 23, 2006 Big Al Don't stiff my bookie Pay up sucka Quote
Soulstation1 Posted May 23, 2006 Author Report Posted May 23, 2006 anyone see cuban when the game was tied it looked like he shit his MF calvin kleins Quote
