The Czech Republic 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2005 Aw man. I don't remember the last time I was this embarassed as a Lakers fan. We just lost to the Atlanta Hawks 114-108, letting them score a season-high 68 points in the first half, and at one point facing a 29-point deficit. DAMN IT KOBE COME BACK Hubie Brown said they would lose, I think. Apparently the Lakers fare poorly in Atlanta. I can't possibly imagine why. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Czech Republic 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2005 bwahahahaha Danny Ainge Walter McCarty to Phoenix for a draft pick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mindless_Aggression Report post Posted February 9, 2005 Good trade for Phoenix, McCarty is a reliable hand when he's given minutes and they didn't exactly give up anything with that pick. If ESPN news is to be believed, the Celtics included cash in the deal too. But yeah, Waltah fits in nicely and all of a sudden, the Phoenix bench is at least quasi respectable. I can name 4 guys off of it anyways, and thats always good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Mindless_Aggression Report post Posted February 9, 2005 Those late late 2nd round picks can lead to good things. Ainge should give them his ankles in the deal too frankly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Mindless_Aggression Report post Posted February 9, 2005 And the Bulls beat the Mavs with Luol Deng and Curry combining for 53 points I believe. Great game, once they got control in the 4th, they never let it go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We just lost to the Atlanta Hawks 114-108, letting them score a season-high 68 points in the first half, and at one point facing a 29-point deficit. DAMN IT KOBE COME BACK Some memorable quotes.. ``We lost the game because we're just playing horrible, because our energy level is real low,'' said Lamar Odom, who led the Lakers with 28 points. ``We're just coming out lame. Right now we're playing a less than mediocre game.'' You mean "bad", Lamar? I'd take it a step further and say it's so absolutely fucking horrible you just got whomped on by the fucking HAWKS when not even a month ago you had a lead on the Sonics and earlier this season you had the Heat beat and were leading the Suns by 15 with 5 left to go. ``I'd advise everybody on my team not to turn on the TV, not to read the paper,'' Lakers guard Caron Butler said. The truth hurts, doesn't it Caron? Hey man, It'll be rough at first, but you'll get used to it. I've given up any hope on the future of the Knicks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Czech Republic 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2005 Let's take a look at Chicago's seasons of the second three-peat, the dark ages, and this year. 1995-1996: 72-10 (best in history) 1996-1997: 69-13 1997-1998: 62-20 1998-1999: 13-37 (lockout-shortened season) 1999-2000: 17-65 2000-2001: 15-67 2001-2002: 21-61 2002-2003: 30-52 2003-2004: 23-59 2004-2005: 23-22 (as of February 8) So before the All-Star Break, they've tied last year's win total, passed three win totals (four counting the LSS), and are half a game back of #6 Orlando in the conference.

Guest Mindless_Aggression Report post Posted February 9, 2005 Yeah, but Celtic fans had a run in the 80's that most teams would kill for. You're owed another 5 years at least of suffering for that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Modern Man's Hustle 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2005 Miller wanted goal tending, but the ball had left his hands a couple seconds prior to it being erased from existence. He rips his jersey out of his shorts, throws his headband across the court, accompanied by a dramatic kick of the leg, and begins the hissy fit. Looks like Webber and Miller are going to be out for a couple of games, especially Webber for kicking the ball into the stands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alfdogg 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2005 If they wind up with the sixth seed, they could very conceivably advance, as they'll be playing the winner of the Atlantic Division, and might even have home court advantage as pathetic as that division is.
