yeah this one's a toss-up. yall can joke about it or whatever, but the diop-dampier two headed monster is about as good as anyone's got against shaq. they won't stop him, no, but at least they have some legitimate size to throw at him, which the p…

pistons got complacent big time. this should be the kick in the ass they need to get it going, but since the second half of the regular season they've been a little bit on again off again. they didn't take the cavs seriously (well, it looks like e…

i haven't heard the album yet but the mixtapes are dope as fuck. i got the drama shit if you want it.

yeah that's like totally a soulstrut word and all, and a new one too god bless soulstrut

Will they all be back? Does Flip return? I imagine it's "yes" and "yes"...just sayin. Of course, it's the bench that's getting cleared. i dont know man, dont be surprised if ben wallace doesnt make it back. he's going to ask for a max deal an…

Here's to another amazing season, and the best starting five in basketball.[/b] Will they all be back? Does Flip return? I imagine it's "yes" and "yes"...just sayin. Of course, it's the bench that's getting cleared. i dont know man, dont be s…

i dont know man. david lee looked great when larry brown let him play. plus, it looks like there might be some players available at #29 this year. so it's way too early to say. those late picks have been kind of blessed in recent years (j. howar…

Tim Thomas is a playoff player. He's a loser, it's true, but he really steps it up during the playoffs. He did the same thing with the bucks, effectively duping the knicks into signing him. first off, youre right - he manages to step it up when …

Monica Lewinski? Dudes are tripping! Raja is the number 3 ranked 3 point shooter this past season. When he's on the court with Nash, Barbosa, and Diaw, it's . Folls hate but he puts up tough D and hits the 3's. The bottom line is If the Suns did…

okay this is ridiculous. go to NBA.com and they have 60 greatest playoff moments in nba history. they got mawfuggin' "AI shocks LA in finals" and Allan Houston, not to mention all these Jordan clips, but no D-fish, 0.4 seconds????? or Kobe's doub…

what has happened to jason williams? five or six years ago he was the most exciting player in the nba playoffs. now he gets the job done but has zero flash. is he even more valuable this way? 5/6 yrs ago he was the most HYPED player in the NBA pla…
-
gotta admit though, i am really really liking that youngun, Barbosa. If he develops a mid-range jumper, and perhaps bulkens up so that he doesn't get backed up in the post, he'll be a stellar player for years to come. Along the lines of Manu or Da…

this isnt playoff related but what about dude is a total fraud and his act has worn thin. if he gets bought out (or rather told to get the fuck out) for the second time in less than one calendar year it'll be his (well-compensated) come-uppance…
-
same old playoff steve nash?
-
well it was allegedly 'tell's defense at his tryout that convinced the blazers to gamble on him. so maybe rice isn't the most apt comparison .. at least he looks like him offensively. i've been impressed with his overall game though - i think he'l…
-
maybe you don't remember how good glen rice actually was in his prime. best season he averaged about 27 points, and that's coming from a guy who was more or less an unathletic shooter. i wouldn't build a franchise around martell but he'll have a l…
-
high as in ... i think he has a ton of potential. dude is gonna be like glen rice in his prime.
-
hey, blazers fans, don't lose hope ... i'm very very high on young martell.

detroit has a great team and everything, but they got to stop playing that card already, for real.

still not getting any respect out in detroit? Detroit Free Press May 7, 2006 "We know that LeBron, it's his showcase, pretty much," Pistons point guard Chauncey Billups said. "We come off playing three games on NBA-TV, now we're on ABC. It isn't b…

still not getting any respect out in detroit?

ehh, not too surprising at all. the suns played like the regular season suns; the lakers played like the regular season lakers. and under those circumstances, the lakers never had a chance. i'm not a big fan of bill simmons or anything but i do a…

What happened to this thread? apparently, not enough of us are basketball scientists and our inferior opinions and small talk are not worthy enough for the big baller status of some of the other participants of this thread. now there's some ass-hur…

To be blunt, it just gets on my nerves (whether it's on a msg. board or real life) when non-ballers HATE. same could be said of non-rappers, non-producers, non-drummers, non-writers, etc. you don't have to physically engage in an activity to kn…

16 Beat, If you been watching the Lakers close enough (meaning almost every game this season) then you woulda seen that Kobe has tried to stick with the game plan. Scenarios like this were common: Double-teamed, pass out to Sasha...he'd either br…

...Nash is still the same ole playoff Nash ... did you even watch the playoffs last year? nash was incredible, and his series against the mavs was one of the most dominant individual playoff performances in years. 30/12/6.5 in that series, 24/11/…
-
wow, lakers looking impressive so far. i still don't think they can take the series but having some playoff success will make them much better for next year. it's exactly what k. brown, walton, parker, et al need to improve. but did it really tak…

Raja Bell - hadn't really been heard from since he played for the 76ers in the NBA Finals. Was known for his defense. How many people can even name the team he was on before going to the Suns? Anyone? It was Utah for the last 2 years. oh come on. h…
-
in my view he's the best point guard since magic, so it's not all that shocking to me, but i do agree to a point. last year it was pretty obvious; this year it was much less so, and i thought the cases made for a few other guys were a bit more com…
