NBA Basketball

[jazz]

tonight's the first night i've watched a basketball game in a heeeeeeeeeeeeeell of a long time.

is it normal for the home team to play rap music during official gametime? or is this just a miami heat thing? i don't remember them doing that when i watched basketball before.

[PatrickBateman]

yes......It is also normal for gang wars during half time

[jazz]

that's fucking ghetto. :truck:

[PatrickBateman]

that's fucking ghetto. :truck:
so is basit-ball

[Agent]

Spurs in 05

[Tzarina]

that's fucking ghetto. :truck:
I noticed this music playing a bit ago... innundation of the senses idea? It's stupid though... :mrt:
NBA players seem prtty wimpy to me... what's up with that? "My finger hurts, my toe hurts... but pay me anyways"

So, Jazz do you prefer the NBA to college basketball?

[jazz]

to tell you the truth, the only college sports i watch are the miami hurricanes football games...and sometimes i don't even do that. i'm more into the professional leagues.

[Tzarina]

:nod: Cool... So, were people dancing while they were playing this music while a game is going on? I'm thinking they do this during hockey, someone's not paying attention to the game, and gets a puck squarw in the choppers...

:lmao:

[KenKill75]

If I wanted to watch a bunch of monkeys run around, I could turn on the Discovery Channel.

[dionysusolympus]

If I wanted to watch a bunch of monkies run around, I could turn on the Discovery Channel.

I just work. I see far too many monkeys around... :what:

[KenKill75]

:hitler:

[jazz]

you forgot the forceful hand gesture.

[KenKill75]

you forgot the forceful hand gesture.

[EtchedInCold]

me: has anyone seen Kiel?

shane: Seig Hiel?

[waylander]

Piston's Back To Back.

Rep `n the Bad Boys.

[EtchedInCold]

hell yeah!

[waylander]

Deeeeeeeeetroit Baskeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetball!

*Bangs the Big Ben Gong*

[Heath]

NBA Basketball sucks balls most of the time nowadays.

College is where it's at.

[waylander]

I don't enjoy college as much as pro as a general rule. Too much player turn around, and watered down talent for me.

[Hailo]

The mavs are sucing assjiz

[Heath]

I'm watching something on NBA Classic right now, and it's awesome. Much better than anything today.

[Agent]

Piston's Back To Back.

Rep `n the Bad Boys.
fuck your couch nigga.

duncan is out. it hurts. it hurts.

[Hailo]

HAHAHA

[EtchedInCold]

:bump:

Playoffs... who's rooting for who?
Pistons to repeat!

[mjk870621345]

San Antonio

[alarment13]

gotsta go wit my man t-mac and the rockets...
I want them to go all the way, either them or phoenix

[EtchedInCold]

Detroit up 2-0! Killed them again. McDyess is a beast against Philly.

[Mufumonk]

Go Wizards.

[EtchedInCold]

:spit:

[Agent]

spurs will bounce back tonight.

[jazz]

:spit:
great use of that smiley, lol.

[Mufumonk]

great use of that smiley, lol.


Wizards will win their series against the Bulls.

[bleuMadonna]

Detroit up 2-0! Killed them again. McDyess is a beast against Philly.
They have a lot of weapons.

[EtchedInCold]

if by they you mean Detroit, yes we do.

[bleuMadonna]

Yup, that's what I mean. That first game, the Sixers were by 16 and when Detroit got serious, that game was over so fast. I would be surprised if Philly even wins one game. They might steal one if Iverson and Korver get hot...maybe.

[Agent]

spurs bounced back with a vengence

spurs in 5 or 6

[EtchedInCold]

Yup, that's what I mean. That first game, the Sixers were by 16 and when Detroit got serious, that game was over so fast. I would be surprised if Philly even wins one game. They might steal one if Iverson and Korver get hot...maybe.
we were just fucking with AI's head...
he's even said "we can't stop these guys"

[bleuMadonna]

we were just fucking with AI's head...
he's even said "we can't stop these guys"
Hahah, I saw that. Usually AI isn't that negative. He was beaten down that night, but somehow they managed to win last night. I was at the Audioslave show, but I heard it wasn't even a sellout. That's just lame. You should never give up on your team, ever...Hell, the Sox came back from 3-0!!! If they can do it, anyone can. Not that I'm rooting for the Sixers, though. If they win the series, it's more work for me, hahaha.

[Agent]

spurs bitches

[EtchedInCold]

AI's all about the Pistons, now. He's rooting for us.

[bleuMadonna]

AI's all about the Pistons, now. He's rooting for us.
LOL, they were saying on the radio the other day that after the Pistons won, some fan yelled to AI: Kiss the ring, Allen!...heh, that was pretty good!

[Keith Moon]

- I'm not really watching the NBA playoffs (except during ESPN), but I'll root for the Rockets. :dump:

[bleuMadonna]

I'm not really watching them, but I'm following them. Basketball is my least favorite of the four major sports. I still miss hockey :(

[Hailo]

spurs bitches

hockeys not on?

could have fooled me

[Mufumonk]

Wizards will win their series against the Bulls.


AHEM! :shizzle:

[EtchedInCold]

as soon as that happened, i remembered you saying that.

[MAGO]

the Heat lucked out playing a weak team...now they get to rest Shaq and the Piston/Pacer series looks like will be going to 7 games...

[EtchedInCold]

HA! Pistons in 5... maybe 6. no way will it go 7.
if i had to bet, i'd say 5

[jazz]

the Heat lucked out playing a weak team...now they get to rest Shaq and the Piston/Pacer series looks like will be going to 7 games...

not only weak, b-o-r-i-n-g.

at least we won without shaq diesel.

[MAGO]

HA! Pistons in 5... maybe 6. no way will it go 7.
if i had to bet, i'd say 5

still will be a longer series than the heat's...i expect the Heat to win in 5...so shaq should have about a week to rest...

[EtchedInCold]

still will be a longer series than the heat's...i expect the Heat to win in 5...so shaq should have about a week to rest...
i expect the heat to win in 4.
but my pistons will in 5.

[MAGO]

i expect the heat to win in 4.
but my pistons will in 5.


any predictions for the Knicks/Hornets series? :what:

[EtchedInCold]

yeah. the Hornets lose 0-0

[MAGO]

yeah. the Hornets lose 0-0

:nanner6:

[bleuMadonna]

yeah. the Hornets lose 0-0
:lol:

[EtchedInCold]

I DON"T WANT TO HEAR ABOUT IT!

[Agent]

spurs bitches.

[EtchedInCold]

Pistons embarrassed the Pacers tonight.

[EtchedInCold]

Pistons win! after trailing for 3 1/2 quarters, they came through when it mattered. and with Shaq injured, it's gonna make for an interesting series. Pistons won the season series against the Heat, too.
Jazz, you root for the Heat right?

[KenKill75]

How exciting. Monkey ball. :what:

[Agent]

spurs v suns

spurs in 6 en route to a championship

[EtchedInCold]

that'd be a good bet if the Spurs weren't going to lose.

[Agent]

which they aren't.

4. Shaq must wear his Kazaam costume at all times.

I saw SC today, and have finally decided Dwayne Wade is the best player to come out of his draft class. He's just...wow.

i'm not a fan of his right now. any other time i would be...
Pistons blew it on their own last night...

[Agent]

as much as that is true.

in reality i would still take lebron over wade. wade would be 2nd then anthony.

[Heath]

Suns = bitch smacked.

[Keith Moon]

Suns = bitch smacked.


- :crying: ...actually, I don't care...I'm just wanting them to win because of their coach. :shrug:

[bleuMadonna]

I wish there weren't so many days in between games. They drag this shit out for weeks because of friggin TV. Plus, it would be nice to have a day game once in a while.

[EtchedInCold]

Plus, it would be nice to have a day game once in a while.
Sunday, what better time for an afternoon game?
No they have to play at 8:00, even though night games at The Palace are usually at 7:30. Gay.

[Heath]

Bastards.

[bleuMadonna]

Sunday, what better time for an afternoon game?
No they have to play at 8:00, even though night games at The Palace are usually at 7:30. Gay.
Exactly. Like yesterday. They didn't play until 9...That couldn't have been a 3 or 4 p.m. game? The scheduling is ridiculous. The other sports, like baseball and hockey, play their games no more than a day apart, sometimes to allow for travel and what-not. These chuckleheads want mostly weekend games. It's stupid.

[Keith Moon]

- Alright...lets go Pistons:paygee2: (damn you Suns) :argh:

[EtchedInCold]

Fuck, yeah, let's go Pistons!
even if it is against jazz's heat

[EtchedInCold]

Spurs, bitches.



now i've said it so that Agent doesn't have to.

[Agent]

word bitch spurs like a motherfcker

we're just trying to get you involved, MAGs. now you could watch the game with vested interest.

[EtchedInCold]

still rooting for the Heat, MAGO?

[MAGO]

:nanner6: .....let's go Bullets!...(who's playing? :what: )

[MAGO]

you guys should give me a preview of avatars so that i can atually root for someone....how the heck did i get involved in this anyway.. :what: ...lol..

[jazz]

nah, the person can't decide until his team wins.

[MAGO]

nah, the person can't decide until his team wins.

:ohnoes:

[jazz]

i'll be easy on ya, :MAGO:. just don't blush too much.

[MAGO]

i'll be easy on ya, :MAGO:. just don't blush too much.


:timmy: ....be gentle...

[jazz]

the fate of MAGO lies in the hands of the pistons and the heat.

:faint:

[EtchedInCold]

:faint:
so who's got your support? :satanas:

[MAGO]

well....it depends on whether Wade plays or not.....should be a good game!!...but at least i'm half detroitian and half miamian :what:

[EtchedInCold]

Wade will play, even if he's only 30%, i hear.

[MAGO]

Wade will play, even if he's only 30%, i hear.

well he won't be effective at 30%...

[EtchedInCold]

especially against Detroit... but if he's gonna go down, he'd rather go down swinging...

[jazz]

especially against Detroit... but if he's gonna go down, he'd rather go down swinging...

i don't blame him. it could be the last game of the year. why not?

[EtchedInCold]

me either.

[jazz]

playing the pistons is like watching the marlins play the mets. i used to like both of those teams, so it's not as fun as watching a true rivalry.

i just want the heat to hopefully get their first title. see someone new win for a change. :shrug:

[waylander]

Fuck that.

DEEEEEEEEEEETROOOOOOOIITTT BASKETBAAAAAAAAAAALLLL!

[EtchedInCold]

Fuck that.

DEEEEEEEEEEETROOOOOOOIITTT BASKETBAAAAAAAAAAALLLL!
that's the spirit!

[EtchedInCold]

i need to figure out what I'll make :MAGO:s avatar be...
:uhhh:
:idea:
i think i've got it.

EDIT: Actually i have no idea...


but the Pistons are looking good as of right now... (9:22)

[jazz]

wow. that blew. congrats, rob.

what are you planning to give MAGO?

[Heath]

Who won?

[jazz]

the pistons. by six i think. i turned it off when i knew it was over.

[MAGO]

:hide:

[EtchedInCold]

wow. that blew. congrats, rob.

what are you planning to give MAGO?
it did not blow. that was one of the best basketball games I've seen ever. A very close game, tons of tension, back and forth.
Where the Heat went wrong is that they kept giving the ball to Dwyane in the 4th, even though it was obvious he was already done.

And yes, the Pistons won by 6.

[jazz]

was it me or did that game just fly by? it was quick! :eek2:

[MAGO]

it was an excellent game....i wouldn't be surprised if they show that game again this week on ESPN classic...

[EtchedInCold]

was it me or did that game just fly by? it was quick! :eek2:
8:22-10:58

[greg]

Where the Heat went wrong is that they kept giving the ball to Dwyane in the 4th, even though it was obvious he was already done.

agreed. he came up the court and shot a j from about 21 feet with at least 18 seconds on the shot clock and only a little over a minute left in the game. i blame that loss completely on him. fucking ball hog.

[jazz]

they should've used shaq more in the fourth. :doh:

[EtchedInCold]

they should've used shaq more in the fourth. :doh:
this is true. had they used Diesel more, you probably would have won.

[jazz]

it reminded me of the philly eagles in that they didn't know what to do at the end. they were right there with them, but it came down to experience in those situations. if it was hockey, i'd be a lot more pissed.

oh, and MAGO, don't worry, i saved a copy of your previous avatar. you'll have the one rob decided to give you until next tuesday around this time. i created it with dio in mind.

thanks for playing. :what:

[EtchedInCold]

time for an Av/User Title change... what do you think?

[jazz]

there has to be a nicer looking avatar somewhere on google. that one looks stretched.

[EtchedInCold]

i just threw it together... i'm looking...

[jazz]

resize this one (http://basketbrax.free.fr/Logos%20NBA/detroit%20pistons.jpg)

[jazz]

or go old-school (http://logoshak.com/%7Easgsport/images/Detroit_Pistons_2.gif)

[EtchedInCold]

i think i might have it...

[MAGO]

:lmao: ....i now have the best avatar in internet history!...i would like to thank my parents for getting it on that night making it possible for me to reach my goal!

[EtchedInCold]

i'm sticking with this one.

[Heath]

This is now a battle of who I hate less, so I won't cheer for anyone.

[EtchedInCold]

just for the record who do you hate less?

[Heath]

Probably Detroit since Texas just sucks.

[EtchedInCold]

:werd:

[EtchedInCold]

13-4... nobody expected this... i'm gonna go watch the game now...

[Heath]

Good game. I'm actually enjoying it.

[Agent]

spurs bitch

1 down 3 to go.

[EtchedInCold]

those refs can eat a dick.
Ginobili could do any fucking thing he wanted last night.
that was fucked up.

3 to go, but it's too bad they wont win, eh?

[Heath]

Ginobili fucking killed your guys.

[EtchedInCold]

well, i stopped watching after the 25th time he fouled Rip and didn't get called.

but what really pissed me off was when he charged on Ben and Ben got the foul. Bullshit.

[Heath]

Both teams fouled all night, but luckily the refs just let them play. I wasn't watching too closely, but it all looked okay to me.

[EtchedInCold]

the two that really pissed me off was when Rip was running around like he usually does, and used one of the Spurs to keep Ginobili off of him, so he just kind of stuck his leg out in front of Rip and both went down and they called Rip because he "got the elbow up."
and also the charge on Ben Wallace. You have to admit that one was bullshit.

[Heath]

Didn't see that one, but it sounds pretty damn wrong.

[greg]

i fell asleep during the game on the couch. good thing i did too, the marlins got pwnzered.

[greg]

i didn't know the marlins were in the nba finals :uhh:

i was flipping back and forth between games, smartarse.

[Agent]

well, i stopped watching after the 25th time he fouled Rip and didn't get called.

you can't let those niggars throw them bands around..... once they get to mouthing you T them donkey kong look alike motherfckers up.

spurs bitches, spurs.

it's over.

i wonder is Rasheed still thinks Manu isn't special??.. :lol:

Damn. Boring.

- :shame:

[Heath]

Spurs are in trouble. Detroit is going to win all 3 at home.

[EtchedInCold]

we fucking embarassed them.
Ben Wallace killed them.

[Heath]

Yeah, I didn't watch it, but knew this was coming. Three straight, then winning game seven in San Antonio.

[EtchedInCold]

one can hope.

[Heath]

And now, since Detroit has started to play, I'm interested and will watch the next game.

[mjk870621345]

Detroit isnt going to win 3 at home... just today, and maybe the next... but the series end in 5 or 6 games

[bleuMadonna]

My original call was Pistons in 7. I'm sticking to that.

[Heath]

Good call. :up:

[Heath]

What in the hell. I'm watching the player introductions right now, and they've got pyro and all kinds of useless bullshit. All in unison with Final Countdown. This is fucking insane, and is a shame to the NBA.

[EtchedInCold]

detroit in 6 if they keep playing like this.

[Heath]

Their introduction pisses me the hell off.

[Pun'KinG']

I like Al Michaels and all, but why the hell is he doing commentary for the NBA? It just seems strange. I dunno. I'm used to him doing MNF. I just find it a little unsettling and not boisterous or overwhelming like it probably should sound.

Or maybe it's because I haven't watched an NBA game since 1987.

:dude:

[Keith Moon]

detroit in 6 if they keep playing like this.


- Spurs = :owned:

[Heath]

Or as Steven A. Smith would say, annilihated.

[EtchedInCold]

where are those Spurs fans now?
oddly silent...

[EtchedInCold]

Timmy D. looked like he was about to cry last night.

[MAGO]

LET'S GO PISTONS! :lurk:

[EtchedInCold]

7 players in double digit scoring...
fuck, even Darko played... and scored.

[MAGO]

:pink:! :pink: !

[EtchedInCold]

Say it loud and proud!

[MAGO]

7 players in double digit scoring...
fuck, even Darko played... and scored.

what did that kid do to pe a 2nd pick?? :nanner9: ....Detroit would be a powerhouse for years to come if they would have drafted Carmelo instead....

[EtchedInCold]

i know. you should have heard my bitching when that happened. You actually might have, you're only in NY...

[Keith Moon]

- ESPN took this picture of Tim Duncan on the way back to the hotel later last night:

Not bad for the Wizards North. Gotta love all the talent they've supplied to Detroit.

where are those Spurs fans now?

nigga im still here.

im still down with the spurs.

[EtchedInCold]

nigga im still here.

im still down with the spurs.
down as in depressed? i can see why.

[Keith Moon]

down as in depressed? i can see why.

- Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh snappppppppp! </:MAGO:>

[Agent]

down as in depressed? i can see why.
if they lose i'll be depressed, but it's 2-2 and if they lose 4 in a row, i wouldnt be surprised.

[Heath]

It happened when they played LA, and then Tim Duncan looked just like he does now. Sitting on the bench, pouting to coach because he's getting hit in the paint. He's soft.

[Keith Moon]

It happened when they played LA, and then Tim Duncan looked just like he does now. Sitting on the bench, pouting to coach because he's getting hit in the paint. He's soft.


- He is soft, but he's definitely one of the more humble b-ball players out there...

[Heath]

But still soft. You'd think he'd be a physical player since he knows all the fundamentals better than anyone in the game.

[Mufumonk]

But still soft. You'd think he'd be a physical player since he knows all the fundamentals better than anyone in the game.

He's a point guard trapped in a center's body. He doesn't need to be physical because he has all the finesse moves of a perimeter player. He makes everything look effortless down there.

[Heath]

Until someone hits him, then he has a shitty game while his team gets dominated, and sits on the bench pouting to his coach. Soft.

[Nostawen]

For obvious reasons, being argentinian I go with the Spurs

[EtchedInCold]

fucking ginobili.

[Nostawen]

fucking ginobili.
:pff: Manu owns you all!!!!!!!!

[Heath]

Manu and hit giant nose can suck it.

[Nostawen]

Manu and hit giant nose can suck it.
:gtfo:

[bleuMadonna]

I don't know about anyone else, but man, these playoffs are dragging. I know it's all about money, but the start time and the time between games are RIDICULOUS!!!!!!!!!!! Can we have a game start at 8 or so and maybe actually play every other night, or God forbid, two games in a row???? Sheesh.

[Heath]

Seriously. And it seems like they just plan to have the games go the way they do, with the ref assignments and all.

[bleuMadonna]

It's just nuts. Tell me kids and people who have to get up in the morning are even watching these games. And they wonder why ratings are down...hellooooo, McFly?? They keep finding ways to drag the league down. People have much more than the four big sports to occupy their time these days. You'd think they'd want to groom another generation of fans, but they won't be too successful with kids if the kids can't watch the game. And those pregame shows are just AWFUL and way too fricken long. Play the damn game already!

[Heath]

GOD DAMN I hear you on that one. The Pistons into and PA guy drive me up the wall. It isn't all about the game anymore like it used to be, and that is why I hate it. College Hoops is the way to go. Hopefully they'll make the NBA age limit 20 so guys go to college and stay in longer.

[bleuMadonna]

Thank you. I totally agree with the minimum-age increase. I enjoy college hoops much more, and actually basketball is the least favorite of the four big sports for me. I would be much more inclined to watch it if they stopped with the lame-ass features, endless showboating, and manufactured stories and just play and focus on the damn game.

[Heath]

If you didn't know already, Larry Brown and Gregg Poppawhatever are best friends.
They play too much Rob Thomas, or whatever his name is.
Not about the game anymore, like I said.
Did I mention that Larry Brown and Gregg Poppawhatever are best friends yet?

I just want to watch basketball, and not hear all this nonsense.

LMAO, exactly!!!! They did the same shit with the Olympics the last few times. They have done more to alienate the fan base in the hopes of attracting so-called casual fans. GIVE ME A BREAK ALREADY!! How about catering to the REAL fans. There are plenty of those around. They're just so goddam greedy. More, more, more!!!

[Heath]

Damn it all to hell.

[Nostawen]

I don't know about anyone else, but man, these playoffs are dragging. I know it's all about money, but the start time and the time between games are RIDICULOUS!!!!!!!!!!! Can we have a game start at 8 or so and maybe actually play every other night, or God forbid, two games in a row???? Sheesh.
In the final games of the Argentinian basketball leagues, the teams actually get to play two games in a row sometimes. And the final is way more exciting like that. With the time that passes between one game and another on the NBA finals, you lose interest.

I forget about it, until a thread on here reminds me. How sad. That's why March Madness is so great. There are so many games it's hard to keep up with all of them.

:nod: You have to be a real diehard, but even then, four or five days in between games kills the excitement, the drive and all. They are turning away the very fans they want to attract, the casual fan.

March Madness rules!

- Big inbound play...

Detroit fucked themselves when they left Horry open. Stupid, stupid, and more stupid.

not to mention the genius move of putting the games on sunday night, when people (like myself) have to wake up early the next day for work.

they should've played tonight's game on saturday and the next one on monday...it would have at least given us something to look forward to after work. :sarcasm:

[Heath]

But you were still up to see Big Shot Rob fuck Detroit over, because of their own stupidity.
