I'd be feeling okay about Pacers-Pistons.

^ As am I, TUF ruled last week, and episode 1 wasn't bad either.

No, they don't.

So this RAW has been bizzaro world without the crowd?

He's talented, and can cut a good promo. Now, if only he had a moveset...

I like Carlito. He could work as a cocky face.

Only very vividly. It was early 2001 IIRC.

Maybe The Million Dollar Man can be HBK's partner after buying God's position.

Is Blasphemy still a crime in the US?

Whats more... I'm not surprised in the slightest. They WOULD HAVE TO pull this shit off.

uh-oh... they're doing special effects, aren't they.

How much will the announcers try to play off that God is helping HBK at Backlash when he makes a comeback?

I suppose I can accept two men uniting over mutual hatred of Vince McMahon, I'm sure that has reunited many friendships in wrestling.

What could possibly justify a D-X reunion after the HHH/HBK feud? And don't say respect, because that's a fucking cop out.

Hudgens, although Raven and Song appeal too.

Breakdown 1998 -- Austin v. Undertaker v. Kane for the WWF title and Rock v. Shamrock v. Mankind in a cage. The second match was a number one contendors match, yes? [/nitpick] Anyway, I'll concede, you got me there. But I still can't see them doing it.

Vince must subscribe to the 'any publicity is good publicity' theory.

Example? Don't give me that 'two fatal four way tag title matches on WM21' excuse either. When have they done two triple threat major title matches on the same PPV? It looks like they ran out of ideas for matches.

They wouldn't do two Triple Threat title matches on the same PPV.

Crowd shitting on a McMahon segment? NO!

I don't see what the problem with any of HHH, Cena or Edge against RVD is. As was mentioned, HHH and Edge have the skills to do some great anti-ECW promos in the lead up, and you know the crowd will shit on Cena and adore RVD. They could put any of those three guys in the match, and it could work out well.

East: 1) Detroit 8) Chicago - Pistons win in a sweep, of course. They'll only drop one game before the East finals, me thinks. 4) Cleveland 5) Washington - Cleveland in 6. Gilbert Arenas will win Washington 2 games on his own, while LeBron will shine in the Playoffs like his buddy D-Wade has done in the past two years. Larry Hughes is the key, if he can perform at a high level, the Cavs will be fine in this series. 2) Miami 7) Milwaukee - Miami in 5. The Bucks to pull off an upset in one game, but the Heat have way too much firepower for this young team. Future looks bright, though. 3) New Jersey 6) Indiana - With the Nets on their current tear, they should win this series. But I can't bet against the Pacers. Alf's right, Peja needs the ball a lot more than SJ. JO needs to take charge, and be DOMINANT in the paint. Their perimeter defense needs to be amazing. I look at the Nets, and on paper, they have a stronger team. But the Pacers can be brilliant when they want to be. West: 1) San Antonio 8) Sacramento - Danger for the Spurs, they've got a reeeeeally tough road to the West Finals. With Duncan and Manu questionable, I don't think they'll get that far, and if they do, they won't make the finals. Just a question of who knocks them off. The Kings have a good chance, but I think the Spurs will win in 6. 4) Dallas 5) Memphis - Dallas are a hell of a team, and I agree that if Damon wasn't out for the year, Memphis would give them a shake. Mavs in 5. 2) Phoenix 7) LA Lakers - Intriguing matchup. The leadership of Nash vs. the leadership of Kobe. Odom and Matrix to provide strong supporting players. Phoenix has the better cast, and while Kobe will win two games on his own, it'll be the Suns in 6. 3) Denver 6) LA Clippers (who will host) - The Clippers are the team I want to see do well. I'm always a fan of the underdog, and this is no exception. Two of the best starting lineups face off, with the Clips unfortunately without Maggette. Radmanovic has to step up. Mobley needs to step up. Clippers in 7.

That doesn't look real, I can actually read what it says.

I bet Rant's mad he didn't get to gross us out with that.

Good attitude Kotz, the people suffering from depression in this thread would be well served to read that post.
