Yes I'm glad LA no longer has a football team. Football is something sacred for me.....and I don't think I could take seeing random celebrities in the crowd for publicity. It'd drive me nuts. Oh wait a minute....they already show up to the Super Bowl. What drives me crazy about the celebrities is that you know they know nothing about basketball(well except for the guys like Nicholson and Denzel) but then there's some that you're just like "WTF!?" Like Jennifer Love Hewitt tonight. 10 bucks the Lakers is the only team she knows! I bet she doesn't even know who won last year! She probably thinks the Lakers did! Oh god! Go film a movie! Stay off my screen when I'm watching basketball.

That's the thing. The Lakers are the sorest and most disrespectful winners I've ever seen. I don't think I've heard them give any of there opponents this post season any credit. They act as if they swept them all and beat them by 20 points. Yeah right. They know that if Fisher hadn't bailed there collective asses out that they would've gone home because SA would've had renewed vigor and confidence. I'd just like to hear them give the other teams some deserved credit and there fans to not act like complete jackasses. Then maybe I wouldn't have a problem with them. I had somebody say "Well you just hate them because there good!" Oh really!? Is that why I liked Jordan's Bulls!? Give me a fucking break.

Hopefully Detroit whips there disrespectful cocky asses back to LA so they can cry on the shoulders of the movie stars that will leave them next year when they don't advance past the 2nd round of the playoffs. God next season will be glorious. Go Detroit. I say Detroit b/c I think they'll finish Indiana off tomorrow night and they have the best chance of whipping the shit out of LA. I'd love to see Malone retire without his championship ring. He couldn't beat Jordan so he ran his ass to LA in hopes that the good players around him would give it to him.......and then he doesn't get it still......HA! That'd be glorious.

Well don't worry Paul. If they stay intact the T-Wolves have the best chance out of any team to take it next year.

What the fuck ever. That was like in the high 20's and rightfully so. That was not the greatest moment in NBA history. Not even close. I get chills everytime I hear the "HAVLICHECK STOLE THE BALL!" call though.

God damn. It was looking good in the first 3 quarters. Me and my friend were getting excited for the outcome. Then it all fell apart. Come on Detroit beat Indiana! Come on Wallace and Wallace! Stuff those Lakers! Detroit has a very good chance of winning against LA though. Oh well......at least they won't be as good next year....hopefully. Hopefully all those players with an option they showed at the end exercise said option. Sad thing is that I'd like the Lakers if they and there fans had a little respect. They mention the T-Wolves playing hard and the fans boo them out of the building. They could've showed a little respect for a team with one of there big guns missing fighting there hardest. But no. I remember Roger Clemens getting cheered by the Marlins in the World Series. I bet if a player pulled that in the NBA the Lakers would jeer him as he left the court and I can picture Kobe with his dumbshit smile saying something to the effect of "Get out of here old man! Let the real players play!" GOD GO DETROIT!

If the Wolves win tonight several things could happen. -They could expend all they have. Because as much as I hate them it takes a lot of energy to beat the Lakers 2 straight let alone 3 straight. -They rattle the Lakers like the Spurs were rattled after Game 5 and move on to easy mop-up. -They light a fire under the Lakers ass and the Lakers crush them in Game 7.

Yeah.....I think he was on crack or crystal meth. It had to be one or the other.....the missing teeth has to be a giveaway to something.

Gary doesn't have an A game in LA apparently.......

Funny thing is that I'm reading this T-Wolves/Lakers stuff and seeing stuff about it on TV while that song "I Need a Hero" plays on my computer. I feel like the lady in the song is begging for a hero(KG) to save her from the evil Lakers.......I feel that way to. Maybe Cassell will do one of those injured walk to the courts where he stands up to fight for his team despite terrible injury if this goes to a Game 7.

Let's not forget how many turnovers the AND1 guys would have against an NBA team. They'd try there fancy passes and dribbling that they can only do b/c nobody on the other team plays defense and get eaten up. Not to mention that they would have traveling called every 2 seconds.

I believe #2 was Larry Bird's steal for the win. #1 was all of it. The steal from Malone and then the final shot.

Ok so this guy comes into my work the other day. I swear this guy was strung out on crack. He was some teenage white dude with screwed up teeth and he was wearing a crooked visor, a basketball jersey, and some pretty big basketball shorts. He kept saying stupid things and flipping his shirt up. He was making no sense in anything he said at all but there was one thing that stuck out and I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out what the hell he was saying. He was talking to my coworker Nick and he said: "You take the W and turn that upside down and you get the M you add the double O and get the Moo! I grab that fucker by the head and milk that shit! Know what I'm saying!?" "No. I don't. What!?" "You know man! Come on! You take the W and you turn that upside down and that gives you an M. The double O makes it Moo. Like a cow! I'll grab it by the head and milk it! Know what I'm saying!?" "Still don't." Finally after wondering around saying incoherent things he wondered out and off down the street. What the hell!? Anyone know what that means!?

Because it's Spike TV! It's for men! It's extreme! In short......I dunno.

Didn't the Spaghetti Westerns get there stories from the Kurisawa films?

Did anyone watch this? What'd you guys think of there choices? #1 is Jordan's jumper to bury the Utah Jazz. Is that really the greatest moment in NBA history? But they had some good ones on there. And they highligthed some great feuds. Lakers vs. Celtics and Johnson vs. Bird in paticular. It was funny that most of the greatest moments belonged to the Celtics and Lakers. Oh and can Carmelo Anthony be any more wooden? Lebron James would've been a better host if you wanted to go with a rookie sensastion. Though the line of: "It was great watching these moments from the BC era with you." "BC?" "Yeah. Before Carmelo" was kind of funny. So did anyone watch? What'd you think?

There's a player named Professor?

Anything that flies and has a stinger equipped. *shudders*

Well I'm looking towards tonight. Lakers/T-Wolves Game 6. The T-Wolves could force a game 7 at home or the Lakers could put them away. The T-Wolves need to come out playing the best basketball of there lives though b/c they are up against the wall. Now I know why the league loves The Lakers so much. They draw ratings even from the haters......I watch to see them lose. But I still watch.

Why all the John Wayne hate? I notice that this is a common thing amongst the young folks these days.

You do it all the time. Ah here we go.....flamebaiting. See you say that to me and expect me to fire back with some kind of a "I do not! Fuck you response." Whatever. The AND1 guys simply don't have the talent or basketball knowledge to make it in the NBA. Plain and simple.

Hey did you know that I can knock down 3-pointers in the gym and dunk over my friends? Does that mean I can play in the NBA!?

What's funny is that everyone here is telling Orale why these guys don't make it and won't make it and he seems unable to accept these arguments and keeps firing back with the same thing......like a brick wall. Dude they don't have the skills to play in the NBA. Just because you can make a pass through your legs and then take 5 steps before executing a flashy dunk while a whole host of defenders just stand around and watch you doesn't mean you'll make it in the NBA. Take the best AND1 team and put them up against the LA Clippers......the Clippers would eat them for lunch.

Most of those guys in AND1 and on the street are great one on one players and can put on impressive dunking exhibitions. But when it comes to the fundamentals of basketball and the team concept....they suck shit. Plus they don't know defense. That's why they aren't in the NBA.

Exactly. This is a reason why I hate the Lakers. They seem to respect nobody but themselves. Unless you're saying the Lakers get no respect. In which case that's not true. I don't like the team but I respect there playing ability. I don't respect the attitude's of the players though.
