Guest Report post Posted April 19, 2008 I don't think either of those teams are going to make it to the Western Conference Finals. Not only that, but we haven't played either one in the playoffs since I was a year old. I hold grudges against the rest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damaramu 0 Report post Posted April 19, 2008 Does anyone feel like the only team in the East that can beat what the West has to offer is the Celtics? I feel like even if the Nuggets(yeah right) were to somehow make it to the finals they'd pound whoever they faced aside from Boston. Pistons...22-8 vs. the West this season, experience, much improved bench, plus I think they would be more in their element as the underdog (which I would imagine they'd be against most of the West teams) if they made the Finals. On another note, FUCK that Wizards/Cavs game earlier. I keep forgetting about the Pistons. And maybe that's what makes them so dangerous. Everyone keeps hyping the Celtics and then suddenly BAM! Pistons win it all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I couldn't recall the Lakers and Mavs meeting in the playoffs recently (and yes, they haven't met in the 2000s at all after checking). I find it somewhat amazing that these two teams haven't crossed paths at least once in the past 7-8 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damaramu 0 Report post Posted April 19, 2008 Does Shaq actually shoot the ball on a free-throw or does he just kind of push it up there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MFer 0 Report post Posted April 19, 2008 Does Shaq actually shoot the ball on a free-throw or does he just kind of push it up there? As many anaylsts have said before, he basically "shot-puts" the ball up there. Random thought: I'll still never understand how Ben Wallace shoots about 10% worse from the foul line than Shaq. At least Ben looks like he's making an honest attempt at good form. (EDIT I guess he's had some type of lingering wrist issue for awhile now...I'm sure that plays a big factor) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ripper 0 Report post Posted April 19, 2008 I can't understand Wallaces either. He does show some decent form, but wow. Happy the whining stopped and we got some basketball. Now we have one hell of a game going. And thank god for 2 minutes coming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ripper 0 Report post Posted April 19, 2008 Double overtime with no amare. Could be tough...although the defense should be better. because...you know...Amare don't play no mutha fuckin defense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ripper 0 Report post Posted April 19, 2008 DUDE. That was one HELL of a game. Jesus. All that and it is still 1-0. If you are the Suns you can't feel to bad. A three by Duncan, a fouled out Amare and other bigs in foul trouble...you live with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And Amare is another retard by getting that charge. Exactly, Nash is your big shot guy as evidenced by that crazy 3-pointer he hit at the end of the 2nd OT. What a game. I feel bad for the Suns because I like Nash so much and because well, this is what usually happens to them. They always run into something in the playoffs. This is insane that this is the first round. Whoever's getting the winner of this series has gotta be licking their chops at the prospect of the team being tired out.

Ripper 0 Report post Posted April 19, 2008 I mean you know the Spurs were on the court too right...they denied Nash the ball... Its so fucking hilarious to listen to the talking heads after the game. So. The Spurs played amazing defense and the Suns played no defense....REALLY? They won by fucking two at the buzzer! They are so full of shit its not even funny. These two teams are as evently matched as you can get. I don't see how you can possibly argue that one team is better than the other. Whoever wins, wins one hell of a series.
