naiwf 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2006 He got a boo boo. Marion joins Tyson Chandler as the biggest overreacters to an ankle sprain in the postseason. The Clips have blown this one, and I'm now convinced that Phoenix has made a deal with the devil. TIM THOMAS has been one of the 3 or 4 best players in the playoffs. Think about it.

His 2 of 12 from the 3 pt line in the last game and forgetting to call a time out in this game says otherwise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
naiwf 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2006 People that trivialize injuries usually have no idea what they are talking about. Considering he re-entered the game about 30 seconds later, I think it's safe to say he was just acting like a bitch. Entering tonight Thomas was averaging 15.3 & 7.5, on .492 FG shooting, .410 3P shooting and that little thing you might refer to as a season saving 3 in LA. Tonight he had 25 & 6 on 10/17 and was 5/8 from 3. This is TIM THOMAS we're talking about. Tim Thomas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ripper 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2006 If someone shot you right now you would react differently 30 seconds later than when you first got shot. He was a bitch but came back in the game 30 seconds later? Can't have both. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest El Satanico Report post Posted May 17, 2006 "aw mah gawd i've been shot...I'M DYING, I'M DYING...the big one elizabeth, i'm coming home" :30 seconds later: "oh wait, it's but a flesh wound...it just grazed me, i'm ok" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
naiwf 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2006 If someone shot you right now you would react differently 30 seconds later than when you first got shot. He was a bitch but came back in the game 30 seconds later? Can't have both. He wasn't hurt. He wasn't injured. He fell down, overreacted like a bitch, and his boo boo was remedied with a quick tape job. Getting shot, and landing awkwardly are really the same thing. I mean next time someone gets shot, just throw some tape on it and send them on their merry way. It was just as much of a pussy response to an ankle tweak as Tyson Chandler's was. Admitting pain is one thing, writhing around on the floor is something else. Despite Marion's floundering around on the ground, the Suns deserved to win this one because yet again the LA team abandoned the game plan. Mobley took too many shots down the stretch, and they didn't foul Bell out. Having said that, all that mileage on Nash's legs is going to cost him mightily if the Mavs finish San Antonio tomorrow night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or longer if the Suns win game 6. (I think that's how it works) He needs one too. He shot 0-5 from the 3 pt line tonight and hasn't made a 3 pointer since game 1. Also made a bunch of mistakes there at the end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gert T 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2006 I woke up with 3 minutes left in the 4th quarter, needless to say I'm glad I did. I don't mean to pile on the refs, because I know it is popular as of late, but how bad does this "moving contact" (I refuse to call them screens) have to get. Elton Brand just blantantly floored (Barbosa/Diaw?) to free open Sam Cassell for that three towards the end of regulation. That was the example I remember the most, but it was happening for both teams tonight, and has been going on throughout most of these playoffs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kurt Angle Mark 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2006 Killing me. Absolutely killing me. Damn it all Great fuckin game but just a gut wrentching loss. I wouldn't be too upset except that since there are 3 days in between 6 and 7 even if the Clippers win Thursday, the Suns(especially Nash) will have a chance to reload for game 7. I really felt the Clippers needed to win last night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cheech Tremendous 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2006 Bill Simmons has a great article on the playoffs and the new style of the NBA up on the ESPN website. Whether you like him or not, his "humor", or his blind Sox love, he is phenomenal at analyzing the NBA. His preseason preview ended up being far more accurate than 90% of the ESPN's so-called experts. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story...=simmons/060517 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
