It's all about NBA hoops, chat.
 
Wow, some incredible hoops action. MAVS-SPURS, CLIPS-SUNS is probably some of the best basketball i have ever seen. every game is a frieken' war! chex is pulling for the MAVS and CLIPS in their respective series. I think unless the PISTONS win in the east, the winner of the finals will most likely be the winner of SPURS-MAVS series, since both teams can take the HEAT and CAVS.

it's too bad about my NETS, but they were overmatched, 1-8 player wise.

marleypumpkin 05.18.2006 01:28 PM

GO CAVS! How about my Cavs winning 3 straight against the NBA's toughest team. Take that Rasheed Wallace.

ricechex 05.18.2006 02:34 PM

CAVS, yeah, good for them! despite what may happen in the PISTON series, b/c it should still be tough for them to knock them off, we better get used to seeing the CAVS deep in the playoffs year in, year out, for the next 10 years if Lebron sticks around..i'm not even all that impressed with their complete lineup, so a few changes here and there, and it's championship time.

marleypumpkin 05.18.2006 02:59 PM

Agreed. I think they need just 1 more piece to the puzzle. Know remember, Larry Hughes hasn't played 1 min. in this series due to the death of his brother. So the Cavs have been short handed this whole series, & they're still managing to beat the Pistons. I grant you not by large margins.

krastian 05.18.2006 03:20 PM

Hell yeah dudes. I've been a Cavs fan since the Mark Price days even though they beat my Wizards;). I love the Suns even more! Can't wait for the game tonight!

marleypumpkin 05.18.2006 03:29 PM

I will mbe watching that PHX, LAC game tonight, definately. Having said that, I didn't watch that much of the Mavs- Spursgame, but from what I hear, it was a damn fine game. Any comments?

krastian 05.18.2006 04:07 PM

It was a pretty good game especially during the end.

marleypumpkin 05.18.2006 04:17 PM

I heard that Duncan started out 12-12 or something like that. Doesn't surprise me. But it looks like a long shot for the Spurs to win this series.

krastian 05.18.2006 04:23 PM

It'll be tuff, but I think they can do it. Tony Parker looked really good last night. I hope the Mavs win.....Dirk is awesome.

marleypumpkin 05.18.2006 05:02 PM

Yes, Dirk is an ALL-AROUND great player. A great inside post player. & a great outside shooter.

khchris(original) 05.18.2006 06:04 PM

Spurs got jobbed by the Refs in Dallas.

Not fond of Cuban's intimidation factor of the Refs.

How does Dirk get to the line 24 times in one game???

Terry's suspended and it's going to be the last game in Dallas, so I expect a much better officiated game. If the calls are even, Spurs win. If the Refs get scared of Cuban and the "BIG SCREEN", the Mavs win. The series should be 3-2 Spurs.

Look for Finley to have a huge game in Dallas. If it goes back to San Antonio, Spurs may be writing history.

marleypumpkin 05.18.2006 06:14 PM

I've been a Spurs fan ever since they knocked off LAL in the 2003 NBA Playoffs. I was just reliefed that Kobe wouldn't become one of the few players to win 4 straight NBA championships. Even Michael didn't accomplish that.

ricechex 05.19.2006 04:09 AM

Jason Terry's suspension is a raw deal. They showed the replay a few times over on tv, and i still couldn't make it out. i think the SPURS ratted on him after the game to make things more even. the MAVS could have wrapped this series up by now.

It looked liked he punched Manu in the balls.

ricechex 05.19.2006 03:51 PM

U sure it wasn't something against Finley? anyways, predictions for tonight? MAVS at home. But no Jason Terry hurts. He's their second leading scorer after Dirk. I'm gonna say.... no i'm not gonna say..lol. it's really too close to call.

but go MAVS!

ricechex 05.19.2006 03:53 PM

I think the MAVS know this is their shot, right here. All the years waiting for this night. Dirk and co. should play like.. hellfire (?)

krastian 05.19.2006 03:58 PM

I think if Devin Harris steps up and has another good game and Dirk is pretty active on the boards then the Mavs will win. I hope they do win....I'm kind of sick of always seeing the Spurs in the championship.

He punched Michael Finley in the balls, not Manu.

krastian 05.21.2006 01:50 AM

Woops....kind of lame that all 3 games aren't on tomorrow. I'd be down for a triple header. Let's go!!!

khchris(original) 05.21.2006 05:25 AM

These playoffs have been pretty incredible. Who would've thought Dallas and Cleveland would've had the last 2 champions on the ropes in the 2nd round???

marleypumpkin 05.21.2006 07:42 AM

I'm still upset about game 6, but we can win this series. I have no doubt in my mind. This coming from a Cavs fan. (haha)
Anyway, I have no idea how this game should, or will turn-out, but all I know is this, I haven't been this excited for a playoff basketball game in a long time.

atsonicpark 05.21.2006 08:04 AM

Anyone that watches basketball needs a healthy dose of feedback skronk.

krastian 05.21.2006 02:15 PM

^Thank you Dr. Phil.

ricechex 05.22.2006 10:04 AM

Two huge game 7's tonight. What do we think? MAVS will have a tough time of it in San Anton. The calls will likely be more slanted towards the home team. But i believe the MAVS will pull it out. Jason Terry's revenge baby.

The CLIPS, i think, can pull this off. Tempo is key, obviously. The game is in Phoenix, however, so that will get the SUNS all energized and hyper. Those SUNS r high energy. Kurt Thomas is available tonight, which they will need. but i hope he's too rusty.

Go MAVS & CLIPPERS!

krastian 05.22.2006 01:45 PM

I'm thinking both home teams will win. Look for big games from both Parker and Nash.

Kallisti23chaos 05.22.2006 08:53 PM

Yeah My Cavs Lost. Cleveland still has the best Basketball player in the world.
All In Time**

ricechex 05.22.2006 10:52 PM

MAV'S WIN!


Such a big win. They got the monkey off their back. They really deserved this. I though they had the SPUR'S on their heels the whole game, despite the horrendous officiating. SPURS had no one with 5 fouls till very late, possibly in OT.

soniknirve 05.22.2006 11:17 PM

did you see the owner's face when they were down. looked like his head was gonna explode...

krastian 05.23.2006 12:01 AM

^Yeah I saw that. I'd be bordering on a nervous breakdown too if my team lost after having like a 20 point lead!!!
