Real Deal

I don't need to explain why, do I? If Bryant had an excellent game tonight, he would've never created that topic. He didn't have to repeat that Bryant sucked, didn't have to say it the way he did, didn't have to bait in this topic like he did, didn't have to call on someone to post my girlfriend's picture on the forums, didn't have to go post other members' pictures on the forums when he's in an Eagles/Cowboys debate...but he does, and he's toxic to this board...until now.

They don't even need Shaq to play to beat the Raptors in a playoff series, probably could sit him the entire game and would still beat every East team but the Magic and Celtics.

Nah man, she wouldn't be my girl. I tried. OUUUUUUUUU! Nice to see you back.

Not so big on what he did. He could've just left it there. Trevor was right next to it.

Everyone here was right. I shouldn't have unbanned you. You're done baiting, done attacking people with their own pictures, done telling others to register here and mouthing off about the site. Topic closed. If you re-register, it'll be a huge, huge mistake.

He has had a strained groin since the Phoenix game. Did any of you watch the Denver game? If so, you'd know it. They mentioned it. Jackson isn't going to run isolations for Bryant. I don't even know why Kobe was playing in this game to begin with, but even then, he should've never drove in. Ariza gets three rips and he's some bad ass defender now. Smush Parker did the same thing. Congrats on being on Smush's level? Iverson ripped guys all the time, but Philly fans SHOULD know how bad his defense was, also. Sky is falling! Boston just lost two consecutive games also, to the Hawks and the Pacers! Oh wow!

Great loss by the Raiders. Here we come, class of 2010!

A better defender? Yes. And he's also a better offensive player, overall...just not the better scorer.

Kobe has had two bad games in a row. He had about 6-7 of them, in a row, last season. That was the season we won the championship, and he won Finals MVP.

Kobe hurt himself in the game against Phoenix, came into Denver and sucked, played this game and sucked. Funny that he dropped 41 on Ariza and Battier about 11 days ago, 50% shooting, and it was Ariza who, again, shot terribly from the field.

Yeah, he's definitely not trying out there. He never has bad games when he tries. He's always healthy, too. If he tried every game, he'd average 50 PPG on 60% shooting.

You didn't do anything wrong.

Yeah, Bynum scored 40 points three times already this season, and he's averaging 23.5 shots per game.

It's so [expletive] annoying when idiots come into the game topics we lose in, just to mouth something off about a game they aren't even watching. I would do the same for their team, but it would have to be 50+ games. Second consecutive loss, but oh well. Don't even care to talk about the game. I'm just sick of point guards abusing us, and sick of Fisher sucking on offense as well, and Odom never showing up on either side of the court. Basically, when Kobe plays bad, we lose...and that's not a championship team.

No, I SWEAR I said this yesterday to my brother, haha. Man, I wish I would've posted what I said. I came in and told Terry that he needs to get back into basketball, because there's an Iverson clone in the league. He said he didn't care, and I was like, "Yeah, well you'll care when he drops 50 soon." He's my favorite rook. Griffin would be right there with him in that sentence, but there's no doubt Jennings will keep this 20 a game up and get ROY.

Can someone please create the poll? I've got about 500 million viruses on the computer I'm using right now (I'm out of town), and I'm having trouble removing them AND posting. When you select the poll options, you can add IMG tags, placing the images in each poll option. Just do it as if you were placing pictures in a post. It should work. Thanks.

Redd not playing is a great thing for the Bucks, haha. They are more likely to win a championship with him out than they are to get into the playoffs with him in the lineup.

Don't get too excited. Atlanta started the season 6-0 last year, lost four in a row after that, and I believe they actually beat the Magic on the road in their opener, and they ALMOST beat the Celtics in Boston in their first loss of the season (lost by one). I can't say they are much different from last season. I know what Crawford is giving them, but I'll reserve calling them a contender until we dive into the season a bit deeper. I mean, Atlanta had a seven-game winning streak last March, so they were looking good...but inconsistency kills.

Atlanta, Miami, and also Washington, Detroit, Toronto, Chicago or any other team in the East would not take out the Celtics, Magic or Cavaliers in a seven-game ECF. Not a chance.

Notice two things: 1) Mbenga practically clotheslines him trying to block the shot, and 2) Mbenga is seven feet tall, and Lawson is said to be 5'11" So yeah, pretty amazing. He got up in the air quick...dude has hops.

Why didn't you quote the first person that brought up Bryant, instead of a Lakers fan? And BFT, it's not baiting. It's a good point. I don't see anything wrong with changing the number. AND...I also think he slipped and made a mistake by saying that if he can't wear it, nobody should be able to. I think he wanted to twist that in a different way, but it just came out wrong...just to say that the players should follow his lead.

I just hope our server holds up until we're all baked by the sun. I just hate when members have to deal with connection errors.

Henry is for real. I'm really glad we got him. I know it was against Hofstra, but you can tell he's going to fit in nicely.

Nobody watched this game? CP3 went down, messed up his ankle, and didn't return. He's doubtful for the next game. The Hornets are looking worse and worse.

Damn, that needs to be edited for consoles, not the PC.
