Boy, Amare REALLY fucked me over on that swap. Ginobili too. He was hurt though I think.
Meanwhile, Malone was one assist shy of a triple-double.
And I shouldn't have believed the Heat's preseason hype, I guess. Of course, it's only one game.

They actually talked about Transformers on the original series.
My favorite Logue line was from I Love the 70's during the segment about the metric system, in an English accent:
That's a wondrous schlong, it must be 32 centimeters long.
I agree with pinjockey. There's no problem with Johnson's thread, as long as it's mainly used for discussions about games. But the big news stuff should have it's own topics. So yeah, I ruined a thread. Even the great ones ruin threads once in a while.
EDIT: spelling
I'm in.
Here's my lineup:
10-28: Dwayne Wade
10-29: Marcus Banks
10-30: Carmelo Anthony
10-31: Chris Kaman
11-1: LeBron James
11-2: Mickael Pietrus
I swapped Malone for Stoudemire in the VGM for tomorrow's games, as well.
So I now have:
PG: Marbury
SG: Ginobili
SF: Marion
PF: Stoudemire
C: Shaq
Coach: Riley (SVG now)
EDIT: Do you know what Jonathon Bender's status is?
Ian Black, Sparks and Rocca are T3h 0wnage. Logue is funny too, but he seems to try too hard at times. I couldn't pull off saying all the stuff Ian Black says and keep a straight face like he can.
Also, Henry Rollins OWNED US ALL in the original I the 80's. They hardly used him at all in these though.
So, what'd ya think?
I loved it...great matches from top to bottom, and the commentators were at the top of their game.
Spoiler (Highlight to Read):
And whoda thunk it...the two BIGGEST draws...returning ON THE SAME BY GAWD NIGHT!
BEST. PPV. EVER.
