Matt Young 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2009 I can't believe the Lakers lost 2 in a row, especially this one to a depleted Suns team that they whipped the other night. 3 games in 4 days does take a toll, I suppose. Alfdogg can post the schedule. I don't want to reformat it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Get that weak stuff out of here! Austin Carr is one of the many things I miss about NE Ohio after graduating from Kent State. I thought there would be more bitching by know about the call LeBron got at the end, I'm just glad a team that I like actually gets some breaks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, Fred McLeod is passable at best. In no way should Gilbert have fired Michael Reghi in favor of him but when Austin Carr is happy, the whole world smiles. Considering it's been 45 years since a Cleveland team has won a championship, I don't think anyone around these parts gives a shit about the rest of the country complaining about LeBron getting all the calls or whatnot. The guy seems to drive to the hoop 70% of the time he gets the ball so obviously it's natural he'll spend his fair share of time at the line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bobobrazil1984 0 Report post Posted March 4, 2009 Iverson should come off the bench with the non-scorers (Maxiell, Amir, Hermann, Afflalo), rebounders, defenders, role players (ie - 4 stiffs as CWebb put it). The starting lineup just sucks with him out there, there's no flow to the offense, for Iverson to play well he has to dominate the ball... when he tries to play a team game, he is mediocre. Not to mention him being such a black hole on defense created havok. If he's unhappy with that, boo hoo, he's can make up a reason to sit out, he's just a massive expiring contract anyways.

Cheech Tremendous 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2009 From the Cleveland Plain Dealer: ... Sources within the Clippers organization told Starting Blocks that owner Donald Sterling went on a profanity-laced tirade inside the locker room and threatened to trade the entire team. Too bad the trade deadline has passed. Sterling, according to the sources, blasted players by name, including the team's second-leading scorer Al Thornton. In one exchange, Sterling called Thornton the most selfish basketball player he has ever seen. When Thornton asked coach Mike Dunleavy (who was standing nearby) how he was playing, before he could answer Sterling told Dunleavy to "shut up" according to one of the sources. ... Besides his consistent losing team, Sterling has other issues. Former GM Elgin Baylor sued Sterling, alleging employment discrimination. "After that (tirade) the guys don't even want to play for him," said one of the sources. "It'll be hard." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your Paragon of Virtue 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2009 They are horrible though. How does a guy with a team logo in his avatar miss something as obvious for them struggling as Garnett being gone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damaramu 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2009 They are horrible though. How does a guy with a team logo in his avatar miss something as obvious for them struggling as Garnett being gone? Because in the past they've typically done very well without Garnett in the lineup. Until this injury I believe they were 5-0 without him. And if you watch the games they lost with him in there (especially that losing streak early in the season) they looked to have struggles with some good teams. When they got blown out by the Cavs in Cleveland was just bad. Yeah Garnett is going to cause some problems, but I don't think his absence is as big as you guys are making it out to be because of the fact they have done well without him in the past.

alfdogg 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2009 YouTube comment on Adrianna Lima's recent marriage to Marko Jaric. i heard the myspace was fake and that she denied she was pregnant. Marko is so lucky. Why did she have to get married 3 days after i met her in person. wtf. Hopefully she kept her word about being a virgin until marriage, if she just did this to get some MARKO Sausage,well then thats just disappointing. Congrats to her though and marko too.

I'm hoping there's a switch they can turn on for the playoffs, because if there isn't then they may not ever make it to the East Finals! I think it may have a bit to do with this: stephon_marbury_embroils_celtics? "Weird thing is, he kept calling the other guys moors, which is just really messed up," the 12-time all-star said. "I mean, what is that, anyway? He didn't say it like it was a good thing. If he plays good basketball he can do what he wants, but I'm not going to listen to anyone call me or my guys moors."
