The last thing the Pistons need is another big. 7 of their roster spots are PF/C. They need backcourt help. And Denver has nothing to offer up there. Except maybe JR Smith.

Mo Williams is about to get overpaid out the ass. He is a free agent too, and I don't think they could hold on to him for under 8-9 a year. So Chauncey for 13 wouldn't be a killer for them. i don't think its a good idea for either side, but the money between Mo and Chauncey isn't going to be that big.

But seriously, why would anyone care what their ex does? Unless they like get in great shape and suddenly decide they like to have threesomes with hot women right after you break up with them. then i could see being upset. But besides that, what the fuck?

Lebron was bigger than basically the entire 86' boston team and just as atheletic as the guy that did drop 63. We are talking about two different eras here, but seriously, who the fuck could they have put on him to stop him from putting up 80 on them? And while you could hand check then, people don't realize that when people hand check you, they are basically telling you which way you can go to get by them. The Celtics would have won in a blow out though.

Don't quote Bill Simmons if you want a accurate portrayal of a players worth. Like him blaming KJ for Barkley not getting a championship the other day(what the fuck was HE watching). Or constantly calling marcus Banks the worse free agent signing of the offseason. Basically what he just did was point out Billups bad games while ignoring that the very good one out numbered them greatly. I will admit he had a bad series against the Cavs but come on. the guy didn't get the nickname for no reason. Clutch plays got him the nickname.

Um...how was NJ or Miami inferior teams? And how the hell does Billups just disappear in big spots. I swear dude, have a bad series and all history goes flying out the fucking window. Detroits problem is that the A: Never post up Billups anymore which was pretty much unstoppable for a few years B: they Iso Rip now instead of running him off screens the way he used to C: they are so good one on one defensively that they never have to double anyone. So when they actually do need to double, they are completely lost on defense. D: They think they are better than any other team in the league and pick and choose when to play hard. Billups isn't worth keeping if he is looking for a max contract. They need more depth at the guard positions because they are fucking stacked up front with Wallace, Mcdyess, Johnson, Maxiell, Mohammad, Webber and Davis. Thats just too many bigs. Flip murray and the remains of Lindsey Hunter do not count as a reliable backup backcourt. Basically, they are still a good team but everything from coaching to management has flaws in it. Tiny flaws that can easily be fixed.

Maybe its where you post. I mean I have seen a couple of "are you kidding?" post from Luke in the movies folder, but gary, dude you have brought the suck to many a CE discussion and a couple in the sports forum. So I guess Gary wins because I have seen him suck in two areas.

Cars are lighter smaller and more aerodynamic. Pretty soon their won't be any metal in the things at all. And fuck public transportation too. Unless it is EXTREMELY conveniant, fuck it right in the eye.

I think three of mine are married now. Some with kids and a house in the suburbs and shit. I baby sat for her once. None of this ever bothers me.

I got 26. I thought I had 27 but what I thought was Watermelon Man...well..it wasn't.

You know what just really hit me? The cleveland fucking cavs are in the finals. It feels like last week that Ricky Davis was their go to guy and now they are in the fucking NBA finals. Geez.
-
Fuck San Antonio right in the goddamned eye. It should be a interesting matchup. Two teams that can rebound the fuck out of the ball, no one can matchup with anyone....it ought to be pretty interesting. I hope Cleveland wins because...once again, someone should fornicate with San Antonio's eye.

Why is eric snow in the game?

You know...doubling off that daniel gibson guy might not be that great of a idea

Reggie is fucking horrible.

Carradine deserved a nod for his role a bill in V2. That superman speech was enough alone. Uma...great performance but come the fuck on.

LITTLE on the cruel side? They sharpen their teeth and make the bite and tear at each other until one of them is dead. How is that not torturing the animals to see them suffer? I don't know, maybe I am in the extreme here (after all, I still honestly say that if someone was threatening the life of one of my pets, I would have no problem shooting the shit out of them. Some people aren't that extreme I accept that, but yes, I would kill you for my cat.) but a simple fine? Whatever. Real Jail time should be the answer.

So making double to go to a team that made the playoffs in the east and has abonifide superstar that is under 24 is less pretigous than returning to a basketball team with no returning starters from their championship team? Really? How about going and looking up how that has worked out for past championship winners. He is going to have to REBUILD in Florida right now. They are no longer a powerhouse. He can either rebuild at 3 million a year and the risk of his best players bolting EVERY YEAR or you can go the the NBA, get paid DOUBLE to coach a team where the best player is locked up for 6 years. I am not understanding your logic here.

Dog fighting is fucking cruel. But you don't get arguements from me on hunting but to say dog fighting isn't that big a deal is just wrong. I personally think there is something wrong with anyone that can watch and enjoy watching two dogs tear flesh from each other until the other is dead. Something is fucking wrong with you. I think overall that animal cruelty needs stiffer fines. Like when some asshole teen decides he wants to torture and kill his neighbors 10 year old family cat, that fucker deserves jail time. Dog fighting is the same to me. I am not sure is Vick is guilty or not (I am leaning towards not, although he did get the "Please love me again white people" hair cut the other day and that usually means guilt in my eyes.) but if he is, he needs to be punished and punished HARD.

This is Lebrons 2nd year in the playoffs, isn't it?

There is just so much wrong with this paragraph. The whole last sentence is completely insane for anyone who knows anything about the sport. How is this a step down in prestige. Thats like saying winning a Oscar is a step down in prestige from winning a golden globe. To coach in the pros is the pinnicle of coaching in basketball. You are saying getting a job where there is only 30 openings is less prestigious than a job where there are like 250 openings. He is getting paid more to work at the top of his profession. He won two years in a row in college because he got a group of guys that all decided to forgo millions of dollars and come back for another season. The chance of that ever happening again is slim to none. There is a reason his back to back was impressive in this day and age. The true talents of the college game smartly get the fuck out the first chance they get.

I'll be damned if i am taking longer than 2 hours to get 120 miles. FUCK that.

I need to clarify, its a great move by Donovan, not so great move by the Magic. There were better coaches to be had. But Billy had nowhere to go but down after the last two years in Florida. And trust me, at the end of year 3 when he has a mediocre team instead of a championship team, there would have been rumblings in florida. I would much rather have rumblings about my job at 6 million a year.

My cats hate everyone and everything besides me and my girlfriend. Well...except for Boo. He loves anything with fur on it (like hand bags, those ugly ugg boots, coats...anything) and will go after anything or anyone with it on.

I am not on the "its just one game" bandwagon. This isn't Willie Burton scoring 50 here (hells yeah...I have been waiting YEARS to use that reference). this isn't his first great performance. This isn't his first great performance in the Playoffs. In this series. I understand that ESPN can be nausiating with its coverage, but don't let the annoying talking heads fool you, you saw one of the great playoff performances ever last night. On the road in the East finals to take back home court with a entire team of players who couldn't buy a shot. And honestly, the thing that separates Jordan from all the "Better than jordan" guys is an unstoppable move. You couldn't stop jordans fade away. He jumped too high and could hit it with his eyes closed. Until Lebron gets one of those(unstoppable move) or anyone else, they won't be a better scorer than Jordan. But lets not pretend being better than jordan is a unattainable goal. Because you know....there are those other guys.
