I am suprised that Phil didn't play Turiaff as much, seeing as he gives Amare fits. The thing is, the Suns had a pretty bad game today and won. Their warming up at Halftime was the big turnaround in this game. THey were flat shooting wise coming out but found their stroke after restarting the game.

The "know" was. Not the "meat" Should have been meant.

Fucking public access. "This man won't even buy you shrimp from Long John Silver and that plate is, what? 2.99?" "These husbands and these boyfriends are geeen the dick away" "The wedding band is noose around the nuts" Dear lord...this lady is fucking hilarious. Once her mom named her Alexyss she should have know that this lady was meat for great things.

I don't think there is a way to store it yet, because noone has come up with a way to add a new operating system like they did with the first Xbox and Linux. Someone really needs to get on their shit. I mean seriously. If they would spend less time making 360 laptops and dumbass firmware hacks to get free games and more time on homebrew I would be happy. Stupid people that are smarter than me.

I meant for Yao to be on the third team (only because he missed so many games) And I think my rookie team would pretty much stay the same even if they weren't position based.

I hope they don't get the pick honestly because they aren't going to draft anyone that will crack D'antoni's insanely short playing rotation. If they get the pick, I would hope they trade up and get Conley. I am still a little bitter about them giving Deng to the Bulls, so I don't count on the Suns ever keeping picks now. But with the Hawks plummet at the end of the year, I am hoping for a top 3 pick. But Atlantas best pickup would be either Hibbert or Conley. So of course Knight would pick Julian Wright.

I don't know video games. Has Ed boon done, I don't know, ANYTHING else for the last 15 year? I mean seriously, dude....expand your thinking. Mortal Kombat is never going to be as popular as it once was.

And lets not pretend that there wouldn't be alot more dead owners of stores if not for guns. ANd although its not on the news everynight, there are plenty of cases where regular joe with gun thwarts criminal with guns. Criminals don't want to get shot no more than you or I do. Bottomline, alot of people are dead because of guns and alot of people are alive because of them. I am not really sure what you could do honestly.

Yeah, the Sit down did get the biggest laugh with me and my girlfriend.

Nah, the Pack was one of the gems of a otherwise craptacular first season.

Eventually I will have been watching basketball so long that I will remember every coach in the league when they were rookies. Scott Brooks as a coach....sigh Ripper - feeling old even though he really isn't

Actually some of the kids did fake dead, seeing as the guy shot up the place and left and came back in shooting, lying in pile of dead kids not only might work, it did work. And its a "John Rambo" idea to try and stop a guy who you think is DEFINATELY going to shoot you. Really? And you are saying that if a guy is reloading the BEST option if you see he is still walking up and shooting the people that ran and hid would be to wait for him to reload again and wait for him to shoot you? The ONLY reason noone tried to tackle this guy is because they thought when he left he had left for good. Then the psycho came back and started shooting again and left again. The leaving and coming back is what left the glimmer of hope that the dude was done and wasn't going to try and kill everyone in the room, which, as I stated NUMEROUS times in MULTIPLE post, is a reason to not rush him. 1: Run 2: Hide 3: Lie down and hope shooter moves on 4: Fake Dead 5: If all else fails, make a move and hope for the best. That is apparently a action movie cowboy rambo suggestion now. What the fuck kinda Cowboy Rambo movies have you been watching that this is steps they go through. yeah, i rememeber that time in Rambo 2 when the guy came out with a gun and John was all "I am about to run" and got away. Or that time John Wayne HID from the guys with the guns....yeah. Just admit you were trying to be a dick. It would take a special kind of retard to see me saying once EVERY OTHER OPTION has been tried and didn't work, rushing they guy and HOPING FOR THE BEST would be an option and turning that into "Man, i just would've kicked the guys ass."

Whats the fun in being the only one drinking?

people pretend the Mavs sucked under Nelson. Didn't they come close to going to the finals in a WCF matchup against the Spurs before Dirk went down with a knee injury and Nick Van Excel had to carry the offensive load?

Lucky me, then, that my cousin is a season ticket holder and not only am I not paying face value, I'm paying less than that. Unlucky me, they're green level seats. Overall, I'd feel a lot better if Garbo didn't break his leg. He's the best Raptor that you've never heard of if you don't follow them. Watching them play, he just kinda seemed like a big guy with a nice, consistant stand still jumpshot. Not saying they don't miss him, because dude was important, but I didnt see him helping with much outside of clearing the paint out for Bosh with his accurate jump shooting.

My comment: your response: REALLY? So you are mocking me by saying the exact same fucking thing? REALLY. Once again, what the fuck were you reading? Now from this you get "Man I would so just run up and beat the shit out of that guy." Yes because MOBBING with 5-6 people is me saying single handedly diving around doing shit that I called unrealistic in the first post I made in the thread is what should have happened. Yep...multiple times of me saying RUN AND HIDE is the same as going Steven Segal on some guys (skinney Segal...not fat one...that one actualy gets punched like once or twice in a movie. Yeah...I think I am going to stand by my assumption that you can't read.

There was this one guy named Stephen Jackson that played a huge part in one of the Spurs championships and was one of the main guys (along with Speedy Claxton) that shot down the Nets in the NBA finals, after a couple of rounds of pretty damn good play. Wonder if he is related to the Stephen Jackson in Indiana, who you yourself have admitted offense doesn't suit his talents...hmmm. And on one hand lets ingnore the regular season because those games don't really matter, but lets bring up a teams road record in the regular season to prove a different point. I am talking about healthy team versus healthy team here and the Warriors matchup VERY well with the mavs. If they did get by the mavs they would have the shit kicked out of them by ANY other team in the West playoffs 2-7. At the same time, I think the Mavs can beat any team in the playoffs, but Golden State is the worse matchup for them. Every other team there is a huge spot to exploit somewhere, but where are the points to exploit against the Warriors....outside of them being the worse defensive team I have ever seen.

That fucking speech ruled. Too bad about the movie though. Right up there with Jacks "You can't Handle the truth" and Bale's "There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman. Some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me. Only an entity. Something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable... I simply...am not...there." And yes...i just typed that from memory.

Despite the Warriors having a deeper team, bigger mismatches at the point, two guard, and Center Positions, and the matchup at SF is pretty much even, the mavs not playing a meaningful game in a while, Al harringtons history of playing Dirk better than basically anyone in the league, and Baron Fucking Davis? I personally could see Warriors taking game one, Dallas getting shit together and taking game 2, Warriors taking game 3 and maybe 4, Mavs taking the next 2, and game 7 going to....somebody. Yeah, Dallas is a better team against most of the league, but some teams just matchup perfectly against some other teams. And this is one of those cases. When Seattle played Denver that year, that was probably the only team in the West that could beat them. ONLY because they were perfectly matched up with Pack/Payton, Ellis/Kemp, Mutumbo...um....Cage? Who the fuck was their center, anyway, matchups are what make series. The Mavs were also a better team than the Heat, but matchups took them out the series. Bottoline, the best team doesn't always win a series. The team that gets the best matchups get the win.

Dotd remake kicked fucking ass. Kicked FUCKING ASS. I think alot of people missed the point about how easy it is to become homeless though. Sure...it was an excuse to blow glens head off, but I think a point was being made there.

I am taking the Warriors over the Mavs although I hate doing so because everyone is calling them the upset pick and I dont' like being with the crowd. But people don't understand, Baron Davis is a god amoungst men at the point guard position. His only problem is that he can't stay healthy. He has already missed his required 20+ games this year, and is playing like you know he can. There isn't a matchup that Dallas can throw at him defensively that will stop him from doing whatever he wants to when ever he wants too. Al Harrington plays Dirk better than any player in the league, hands down. If you look at the games in Atlanta the last few years, you will see Dirk always sruggles, because Al is a perfect combination of height and quickness and phsycality that can bother Dirk. Jason Richardson is also a big mismatch for the Mavs, as Stackhouse is too slow to defend him and Harris is too small. Josh Howard will have to be used on either Richardson or Jackson....one of the two is going to have a monster series. I am taking Warriors in 7. I wouldnt be suprised if the Mavs win it, but I would be shocked if this series didn't go at least 6.

More like Jackie Chan. Run like a mutherfucker and fight when I get cornered. "Please...I don wan no trobole."

I have become convinced that you can't read. You have a speak and type software or something and can understand parts of other people post but really, reading is just a lost art to you.
