    NBA Playoffs 2007: Round 1

    So...question. Darko Milicic OBVIOUSLY has a better back to the basket game, has a midrange jumper and is alot more effective player on the offensive end. So why the fuck do they keep trying to feature Dwight Howard who simply doesn't have the offensive game on the block right now on the offense?
  2. Zack Morris didn't make me ask for a comically large cell phone.

    NBA Playoffs 2007: Round 1

    They can't say that he quit the final few years. I will say that he wasn't playing hard that last year though, but they were blaming him for being injuried so often, oddly not blaming Bruce Bowen who did the injurying a couple of times. So the guy didn't like the direction of the franchise and wanted to get traded. It was what, 3-4 years ago....get over it. Of course expect Bob to come in and say that he hopes he tears an achilles and dies in surgery or something because he didn't play his hardest for those 20 games after he said he wanted to be traded.

    Alicia Key's Thighs should have gotten their name on the poster for that movie.

    raptor fans wearing the visiting teams colors....great idea. They really do need to get over the whole vince carter thing. Its not his fault their GM was lazy and decided he didn't want to do any work and would take the first bullshit trade that came along.

    Fuck that guy. How can you like a guy that literally doesn't try at all sometimes. Fuck that guy right in his ear.

    The Dark Knight

    *looks around* Well...i kinda think Jim Carrey as the Riddler was the only good thing about that movie.

    But how often are smaller players able to hold their own in the post without fouling. They by nature will try to bump harder to keep the big man out and you are in foul o rama. I am sorry but any time a team is playing Matt Barnes at Center you have to attack the middle.

    NBA Playoffs 2007: Round 1

    I can't understand why you want to have two games on at the same time. That makes no sense. So what if it takes two weeks? Last year's first round was probably the most exciting round in the playoffs. Why rush through it? 2 weeks is fine. Bulls/Heat and Nets/Raptors are on at the same time tomorrow, anyway. because it kills all momentum and kills all advantages. Say a team sweeps their team. Well back in the day that would mean you would get a extra day or two of rest as the other team would have to come right off that series on to the next series. you were REWARDED for winning quickly. Now with the huge breaks in between series and games, that advantage is gone. Plus a team that has great momentum, then have to wait 4 days to play again. It leads to teams coming out flat playing really bad basketball for like a half (part of the reason that Playoff scoring has dropped since they went to this format) And on top of that, 2+ months for a playoff is kinda fucking ridiculous. The entire season is only 5 1/2 months, then you are going to have a 2+ month postseason? Plus, why should I have to wait 3 days to watch my team play because Cleveland and Washington need the time to themselves. FUCK Cleveland and Washington. Yeah I want games on at the same time so I have a choice of what I want to watch.

    NBA Playoffs 2007: Round 1

    It wouldn't be about scoring. It would be Al Harrington or whatever small forward he threw in at center getting into Foul trouble thus shorting his bench and having to use a traditional big. Take out, say, Harrington and Barnes from the Warriors plans, and you slow them down some. Might even force us to have a Adonale Foyle sighting. Damp might not be a great scoring option normally, but he does have a very powerful back to the basket game, something missing from every other mavrick. The Mavs can't out perimeter the Warriors, so the best adjustment would be to play Mavs basketball, and force Nellies hand, if through nothing else, foul calls and getting into the penalty early. The closest thing to a big that he played in game one was beidrens and he played for like 8 minutes. Avery going small with the Warriors is stupid because his team isn't used to doing it and Nellie's is, thus you are playing their game and not yours. Here is the even scarier part for the Mav fans. Monta Ellis and Jason Richardson had off games as did Mickal Pietrus and they won by 12.

    and the new Incredible Hulk is....

    CGI hulk in the last movie was one of the more perfect CGI/real film integrations this side of Fight Club. Sheer perfection. Made me happy as a animator. People that said it looked fake, I still have to question how they think a 9 foot tall 2 ton green man looks in real life.

    NBA Playoffs 2007: Round 1

    I said ATTEMPT to curb stomp them. Like just give the ball to damp and let him bull over the "bigs" for golden state forcing Nellie to get bigger or double and open up the jump shooters. This will either go very well for Dallas or very bad.

    NBA Playoffs 2007: Round 1

    Its the fact that they didn't pound anything (thus forcing double teams) and they let Golden State dictate their lineup. thats what they did in game one against Phoenix last year and they adjusted so I expect them to adjust. Plus I like how Golden state doesn't double Dirk until he makes his spin move, which is pretty much genius. So he can get position, and dribble and noone comes, but once he makes it obvious he is deciding to score on the guy they swarm him nice game plan. I expect Dallas to come out and attempt to curb stomp the Warriors in the next games, because as much as they don't want to admit it, the Warriors have beaten them 5 or 6 straight times and it is getting to them. There are guys on their team that have never experienced losing a game to the Mavs. They are going to be able to shake off the playoff jitters and use the "we own these guys" confidnece, while it will eventually get in Dallas's head they can't beat these guys if they don't do something and do something now. I am not a big jump on the dick of a team that won game one, but I really think that the Mavs have a problem here. Dirk nowinski is a great player, but Baron Davis is HALL OF FAME TALENT with brittle joints and bones. They literally have a alltime great on their team. And he happens to play at the position that is the Mav's biggest weakness (perimeter defense). If the Warriors win game 2, I don't think the Mavs are mentally strong enough to recover. And just like I said in another thread, the other instesting matchup is the Spurs/Nuggets, if only because one of the most competitive players ever is playing and once again, playing where the Spurs are the weakest. Perimeter Defense.

    Somebody Sell Me On The "Blade" movies...

    I liked the first one well enough, the second one just annoyed me, and the Third one was so bad it was good to laugh at. Like the script was so horrible...ugh. Somewhere between blind american pie girl, vampire dogs and literally EVERY line Ryan Reynolds said being a one liner, or him trying to tense up his muscles so much during the shirtless scenes that he literally couldn't move and looked like a statue while trying to deliever his lines. And he delivered his lines like he just watched a bunch Jason Lee movies and said "I am going to go for that" and failing miserably. Blade screaming "USE IT" at Jessica Beil made me laugh when I was supposed to be moved. Triple H was just flat out hilarious and Parker Posey, lets face it, we all know she can't really act but she is just usually fun to watch. Not so much in this film. The only highlight of Blade 3 to me was the really hot goth girl in the goth shop.

    But the PS3 is the strongest bestest video game system when it comes to graphics blah blah blah.

    I also would have no problem fucking the women in those "Lower my Bills" ads. The ones where they are dancing in front of a computer screen for some odd reason and then turn around, suprised that a camera is there. There was a original one with this girl who looks like porn star Loni at the end, and then there was a second one with two women. Yeah...advertising is the new porn.

    Mirko seems to drop his hands alot but doesn't have to pay for it much because people are so afraid of his legs and are afraid to make a move. But that hand dropping shit is giong to have to stop. This is the exact way he lost to that piece of crap Kevin Randleman. A couple of more shots to the head and maybe he will start keeping those hands up. And next time, touch gloves mutherfucker. Ripper - not a fan of Kevin Randleman.

    I would suggest everyone see Big Nothing with Pegg and Schimmer. Pretty good movie once you get past Peggs horrible "american" accent.

    NBA Playoffs 2007: Round 1

    They started this bs about 2 or 3years ago so that no games would be on at the same time. It used to be like 2 games would be on at the same time (on TBS and TNT) and the series would be over in a week at the longest. If these series go 7 games it will be two full weeks. That is ridiculous that the first round on the playoffs could take 2 weeks. I forgot to do this the other day, but hells yeah to Thabo Sefolosha for making a name for himself. I have been constantly talking about the kid since before the draft and was praying the Suns would be able to move up and get him, but they weren't able to. The guy is just a monster defensively and if given the chance is a great playmaker with size (think Boris Diaw). I was hoping Skiles would fuck up and never play him and he could be traded to a team I liked later but oh well.

  21. Medicine is too advanced now for anything of that magnitude, unless we just wipe out poor people. Your ideas intrigue me and I wish to subscribe to your magazine. The only problem is that if a rich versus poor war broke out, Poor people would win easily. I mean, seriously, rich people are pussies.

    NBA Playoffs 2007: Round 1

    Yeah. Replace Kobe with Vince with a in his prime Shaq and running the triangle and I think that the Lakers would have won 1-2. They wouldn't have been as dominant because of how incredibly bad of a defensive player that Carter is, but his offensive ability matched up with Shaqs dominance...yeah. I think they would have one at worse. Two at best.

    NBA Playoffs 2007: Round 1

    I thought I heard that but I was sure I had to be mistaken. Although I still stand by my belief that if you put Kobe on some of those Shaq Laker teams they still would have won at least a ring or two. But now? Please. They wouldn't be near the playoffs. I hope Robert Horry recovers from that vicious shot to the face that he took when Nene kinda got near his face while grabbing his arm. maybe the wind kinda got him.
