Is Stephen A. Smith the Dick Vitale of the NBA? In love with one team(the Lakers) and not willing to give anyone else an edge?

Hey I'm taking a basketball class at OU next semester. Maybe Kelvin Sampson will be there and see my mad street balling skillz and be like "Hey this guys to good for my team! I'd better contact an NBA scout!" And then I'll be rookie of the year and 10-Time League MVP.

I remember a bunch of people saying LA would sweep Minnesota. One was Spicy. Then Minnesota won a game and it was magically in 5. Then they won another one and it became LA in 6. Which nearly didn't happen either. In short.......LA ain't sweeping shit.

If The Lakers are paying back everyone that's beaten them in the Finals then they have a lot of paying back to do. I swear nobody has lost more finals. Maybe, but besides Boston, nobody has won more finals either (14-12 in 26 appearances, a record). Yep and I doubt they'll catch Boston. They're about due for a slump....a long one that Boston may get good during.

What I really want to see are these Lakers against Bird's Celtics, Johnson's Lakers, and Jordan's Bulls. It wouldn't be a contest. The other 3 teams would pound them.

That'll also be the last time he sees Malone and Payton b/c they would've had to have mugged the Wallace's to get ahold of it during the Pistons celebration.

When did you find your Laker colored glasses again? You were less annoying over the past few days.

The Lakers will not make the finals next year. If everyone that is rumored to leave goes ahead and leaves....they're finished.

It'd be funny if The Pistons somehow exploded into an offensive monster and kept there rabid defense going. Kept the Lakers at 30-40% and shot 60% themselves........ah.......*dreams some more*

Go Pistons. I may have had a freudian slip last night. In the midst of my excitement last night when screaming for Minnesota to win I screamed "Go Lakers!" Hmm.......

God damn. Go Pistons. Apparently Artest was trash talking him after he knocked him down to. Oh boy. I just heard about the preferential treatment thing and the Shaq thing.....that pisses me off. I wonder if they do it in other sports? "Hey guys..I don't care if Ty Law has the guy in a headlock out there....don't throw the flag!"

I have nowhere to host it......

It is sad that everyone hates such a team. But they and there fans are a bunch of disrespectful cocky assholes.....so there's all the hate. I don't remember Chicago fans being this beligerent.

Looks just like me at work.

Yeah but if they can hold The Lakers to 30% then there may be something there.

Enterprise Rent a Car I hate your company, but I digress. Please tell me this chap wasn't trying to rent a car?... I hate my company to. And why wasn't he renting a car? I dunno. He didn't have any money from the looks of it. We're right off a busy highway to...I'm surprised he didn't wander off onto it.

Yeah, it could be just your stereotypical missing tooth Oklahoma hick (I have a friend who knows, he's a born and raised Californian being forced to live on Tinker Air Force Base in OK City) But if it's any indication, I know that smoking crystal meth wears away tooth enamel when blowing out smoke. But that would have to take a LOT of doing it, and I'm not so sure the meth out in OK would be that good to begin with either. Though I've spewed shit out like that before when I was spun the fuck out for days. I worked at Domino's being up for 5 days, and coming down I barely knew the words that werre coming out of my mouth and I tried offering some guy "tickets to the show at the arena" because my "brother knew someone who was there". I lived in the suburbs at the time, and on top of it the guy was trying to order pizza. Fun stuff. Your friend obviously hasn't been around Oklahoma very much. I've never met a stereotypical "toothless hick" in my life. Drugs are around just like they are in any other part of the country so it's not like he wouldn't be able to get it. And it wasn't that he was missing a bunch of teeth. He was missing like two and the others were crooked and messed up looking. And he wasn't a hick...he was some kind of wannabe white rapper type dude trying to spout off some terrible ebonics. I still want to know where most people get there information on Oklahoma and stereotypes. Jim Ross? He's full of shit. I also want to know where people get this notion that it's not a real state with cities just like any other state. I actually had some yahoo from California say that he was coming here expecting to see Cowboys and Indians shooting at each other and he thought he'd have to use the bathroom in an outhouse. Seriously that's not a stereotype. That's just out and out stupidity on that person's part.

Last night truly was 2 men against the Lakers and there bench though. Hopefully Minnesota can deepen there bench over the off season. My friend said it best. "The Lakers keep bringing all these good players off there bench and Minnesota is bringing in all these untalented stiffs that can't even hit a layup! The Hell!?" It's true though. LA's bench was so much better than Minnesota's bench. So it was basically KG and Spree trying to fend off all of The Lakers....and they were doing a damn good job of it until the 4th quarter.

Whoa I haven't really heard anyone mocking KG yet....but it wouldn't shock me. All the sports analysts I hear on the radio are giving the T-Wolves there credit and saying that if Cassell had been healthy then it'd be bye bye Lakers. But all The Lakers fans I've run into today are saying that The T-Wolves couldn't hold the Lakers jocks and that LA was never in danger of losing because Minnesota sucks. Oh and they already assume they've won the title. God I hope Detroit beats Indy and takes LA out. Is that why your bench saved your ass and you didn't have control until the 4th quarter?

Under Abe's Orders: Damaramu and Ryan Smith FORCED to team up against The Cult

*get's out checkbook* Will he accept 200 bucks for the team? Anyways I'd actually like to see The Rockets grab it next year. Out of the West them and The Mavericks are my two fav's. If The Rockets can get T-Mac they have a chance since they are such a young team. Plus I'm a fan of Hakeem Olajuwon from back in the day so I still support the Rockets based off of liking him when he played. I even had a Hakeem USA jersey when I was little. So I'd like to see The Rockets get back on top if at all possible. And the Mav's are just fun to watch. But I actually think if they keep the same players and stay healthy that the T-Wolves have the best chance next season.

As a fan of the Celtics I definetly don't want LA to catch them. However I still maintain that this is LA's last year on top for a while. Hell Boston may get good again before LA does and pad the record.

You noticed the foul thing to!? Kobe Bryant is the one that drives me the craziest when it happens. He'll give that stupid ass "WTF?" grin and then go over there and argue with the ref then walk off with this goofy ass grin of "This guy's an idiot" And they do seem to give the "Do you know who I am? I'm Shaq/Kobe/Malone/Fisher/Payton bitch! You don't call a foul on me!" bullshit. God I hope Detroit beats them. In LA! That'd be even sweeter.
