Failed Bridge Posted February 7, 2007 Report Posted February 7, 2007 The deepest draft in a few years and its the one draft Danny Ainge isn't stock-piling picks for. Trade Sebastian Telfair already and when Wally comes back from injury long enough to play 3 in a row you trade him too.
Guest Posted February 7, 2007 Report Posted February 7, 2007 Kwame, Farmar, Turiaf for Gasol. Do it NOW. I'm thinking Memphis might balk at that one. Obviously, lol. They need guards.
alfdogg Posted February 8, 2007 Author Report Posted February 8, 2007 That new Memphis owner seems like a real cunt.
alfdogg Posted February 8, 2007 Author Report Posted February 8, 2007 Wanna know how bad the Celtics are right now? According to the standings at NBA.com, they're 0-11 in their last 10 games.
naiwf Posted February 8, 2007 Report Posted February 8, 2007 I hope the Celtics try to tank and end up getting the # 3 again.
razazteca Posted February 8, 2007 Report Posted February 8, 2007 The Celtics don't need another rookie who needs 3 years to adjust to the pro game the team needs a vet who can lead take them to the playoffs. Too bad they are going to fire the coach for the losing record when they should be blaming the GM for the crazy brain typing schemes.
Failed Bridge Posted February 8, 2007 Report Posted February 8, 2007 Rumor has it that it's John Amaeche. Unsubstantiated, but it's just what I heard. ESPN.com's NBA section says it is him. Must read article due to his coming out. I find I agree with alot of it.
Rendclaw Posted February 8, 2007 Report Posted February 8, 2007 Dunk contest participants Nate Robinson, NY Gerald Green, BOS Dwight Howard, ORL Tyrus Thomas, CHI That's pathetic. Ooh, how exciting. I'm vaguely curious to see Dwight Howard in it, but really, it just ain't what it used to be. It hasn't been anything since 1988 or so....
Ripper Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Oh please. Jason Richardson is the greatest slam dunker in NBA history. Now....besides his years.....
Sandman9000 Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 The numbers next to the teams are their positions in the Hollinger daily rankings. Dunk contest participants Nate Robinson, NY Gerald Green, BOS Dwight Howard, ORL Tyrus Thomas, CHI No Ryan Hollins or James White can kiss my ass. Why the fuck isn't James White in this? His stuff in the college dunk last year was ridiculous. Hell, the only reason he's in the league is because he can jump out of the gym.
Cheech Tremendous Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Oh please. Jason Richardson is the greatest slam dunker in NBA history. Now....besides his years..... I can't remember any dunk that Richardson did. That's not to say that he isn't a great dunker but I don't remember anything memorable that he has done. Nothing interesting has happened in the contest since the late 80s (except maybe the year Vince Carter won it). The new guys may be more athletic and creative, but they are just doing extensions of things we've been seeing over and over again for the last twenty years. I say just bury the thing instead of running out a pale imitation every year. I mean does anyone give two shits about the dunk contest anymore?
naiwf Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 I'd rather see a game of HORSE with guys throwing it up from all over the gym than the dunk contest.
alfdogg Posted February 9, 2007 Author Report Posted February 9, 2007 Three-point contest Dirk Nowitzki Gilbert Arenas Damon Jones Jason Kapono Mike Miller Jason Terry How is Brent Barry not in this. You could have done without Jason Terry. Also would have liked to see Al Harrington, but I guess he didn't want to be in it. Maybe Barry didn't, either.
Brett Favre Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 I like how everyone is like "Damn the dunk contest sucks. Piece of shit waste of time. blah blah blah blah." then you watch it anyway. So for one of Nate's dunks, a Knick will be making a pass. I like the choice he makes. Probably not the Knick you'd expect, but he's nice.
razazteca Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 I'd rather see a game of HORSE with guys throwing it up from all over the gym than the dunk contest. I'd rather watch Gilbert Arenas shoot 3 pointers with his left hand from half court while drinking a liter of Sprite with his right hand.

You could have done without Jason Terry. Also would have liked to see Al Harrington, but I guess he didn't want to be in it. Maybe Barry didn't, either. Better question is why isn't Nash in it. That's a joke, unless he turned it down. He's shooting them at nearly 50% percent. Arenas, on the other hand, has a 3 point percentage of only 37%.
alfdogg Posted February 9, 2007 Author Report Posted February 9, 2007 This is the only one you need, really. Shame he didn't save it for the finals, or he would have won. EDIT: And one.

Arenas, on the other hand, has a 3 point percentage of only 37%. Well, Nash is already in the skills challenge, so I'm guessing he probably didn't want to do both. I don't know who actually got invites.

Mr. S£im Citrus Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Tyrus Thomas just rolled an ankle going for a breakaway dunk. No free money for him, perhaps?
Cheech Tremendous Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Tyrus Thomas just rolled an ankle going for a breakaway dunk. No free money for him, perhaps? Karma's a bitch. The Bulls should call up Memphis and see if they'll take PJ Brown's contract, Tyrus Thomas and a future draft pick for Pau Gasol. He just sounds like the wrong guy for that Chicago team, especially with Skiles as coach.
Brett Favre Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Josh Howard and Carmelo Anthony are all-stars, replacing Carlos Boozer and Yao Ming.
Rendclaw Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 I had a notion that getting Webber would help the Pistons, but wow. They just dismantled the Lakers last night... thats good to see after that malaise the Pistons were on before this little run they've put together. I was listening to a podcast of Jim Rome when he had Tex Winter on and Tex's criticism of Kobe is that he is still trying to play the game his own way, trying to force things and not letting the game come to him, and I agree with that.... Kobe has way too much talent to get stuck in this kind of rut... its agreed that he needs better players around him, but trying to force the game one way or another is only going to lead to frustration for him, the Lakers and their fans. Not that it hasn;t already... Melo should have been kept out of the All-Star game for his pussy act that got him suspended.
Ripper Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 I was all for Melo, but I gotta say, I think Stern got it wrong. Mehmet Okur got screwed. Or Deron Williams
Ripper Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Kobes problem right now isthat he is trying to put together all these great late game performances. He keeps coming into 4th quarters having taken 3 shots and then tries to take over in the end of the game. He needs to keep it going like he did in the very start of the season. I think Luke Walton missing is hurting him though. THat guy stuck to the fucking triangle.
Guest Vitamin X Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Man, whoever thought we'd be saying Luke Walton is a valuable piece of the Lakers' triangle? Besides Bill, anyways..
Boon Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 Celtics looking good to add games 15-17 to their losing streak. Just sayin'.
