^ Not really a baseball fan... its one of those sports thats fun to play, but boring as hell to watch.

Kinda like golf... or bowling (if you consider it a sport).

But yes Dodgers > Angels... You heard me, Pujols was a bust~! Now back to NBA talk...

Celts close it out tonight? I think so....

If let's say the 76ers pull a comeback on Boston and win the series. If Indiana was pissed about not being on the national spotlight that much would Philly be pissed that bobcat tickets where more expensive than 76ers tickets? Lol

Okay okay okay okay okay. I was busy all day in a conference and see where this thread has gone without me here.


Okay, mystikk: I'll settle this for you. YOU ARE WRONG. DEAD WRONG. You are not ever allowed to criticize or point out anything wrong when talking about the Perfections known as LeBron and LeWhine. Understand?!?!? Like, oh my goodness I'm so angry just typing this, it's like trying to find fault in a God. And we all know Gods are flawless.

Don't you ever, EVER, EVER point out your perceived problems of LeBron and LeWhine again. Got it? Or I'm going to do something you'll regret.

The LeHeat did not impress me enough though. With their amazing Godly supremacy, the margin of victory should've been 123129872109347321094731047093243120. They need to start trying more...such lazy players. Geezus.

LeWhine does not flop or complain. He is legitimately tackled, shoved, elbowed, shouryukened, or kicked when he falls over. So, he does not flop...ever. If he did, I'd call him LeFlop.

He also does not complain. He is just a kind, loving, and all-round amazing human being...he is asking the refs how their families are, the weather, their stocks...stuff like that. He does not complain. Ever.



So, stop propagating lies and negative energy here! We are all hoping to see the LeHeat (a.k.a. the Chosen Ones) fulfil their destiny.

And LeBron? Well, being the King that he is, he can say anything he wants.


So, again...that's not whining. When a King speaks, those are orders.

If I'm gone for all-day meetings again, don't you ever let me see this thread go down that path of negativity directed at the LeHeat ever again.

Yummy, anymore all day meetings where you don't post here all day?

Was UD going for the ball? We don't know his intention nor Hany who the league thought did go for the ball. Mind you he slashed Wade's face and celebrated the flagrant. And before you say post play behavior has no bearing in a suspension I guarantee Dexter's wink gave him an extra game. But as UD pointed out that's the first Flagrant 1 to be upgraded to a suspension instead of just a Flagrant 2. So they are without their two best big men for tonight's potential eliminator and 6 fouls that Dexter for sure would've burned through.

Nice win for Philly. Lou Williams must've gleened something from AI in that pre-game hug.

I need to stop jinxing shit. Every time I called on a team to win that night, they lose, and the same thing happens with someone's performance. Rondo was a non-factor last night, a Bynum-like performance.

Coaches probably thought Dwight and Serge were better defenders because of their blocks even though Chandler joining the Knicks increased their defensive rating. Coaches gave LeBron the most votes probably because he can defend any position.

^^He's got some crazy timing.

I wonder if Tyson Chandler being in NY has anything to do with him getting DPOY. Is there a higher % of the media votes are in NY?

@ yummy

I don't really care what yummy had to say about Heat players. At least I have my favorite team and players are STILL in playoff... yummy in other hand, wait, what? chicago got knocked by 8 seed? OUCH!

And, Rose won't be back for 8-10 months? good lord.

I agree, don't you ever, ever talk about Wade and LeBron like that. Ban anyone that talk shit, yummy!

The Bulls suck. Even the Dynasty Bulls. The greatest team (to never win dick all) is the LeHeat and LeWhine and LeBron make all look like me trying to dribble a basketball.

And it's not a pretty sight.


So, yes...don't you dare insult the LeHeat. I know I never do. Nothing but almighty-praise from my end all the time. And if you don't believe me? Find one post where I'm posting e-hate about them. You won't. I love them. So much.

Chandler is a better straight up defender Ibaka is a better off the ball AKA weak side defender that is the difference.

Like I said before fellas, LeBron is always going to do his thing, even if its not in the 4th qtr. Either way the important thing is WADE needs to play better and not get so frustrated at times. When he plays well and brings in a avg of 22-25ish ppg, they are nearly unstoppable. And tonight's game was a prime example of that with the HEAT in so much of a disadvantage with so many key or supporting players out. So DWADE decided we was going to score his pts, Bosh's pts and UD pts all in one night...lol ~ True story

You better hope you're right. They made it to the ECFs without Green, Wilcox, O'Neal, and now Bradley. Ray-ray is playing with ankle spurs. KG and Rondo are carrying this team, they've truly been a die-hard team this season.

U r so right... At this moment, I honestly don't believe there is a team left in the NBA who has the gut, grit and heart as the Celtics have. Where most teams fall apart due to who in "THE MAN" or who is on fire to carry the team, they have gelled. The C's are nothing to fk with or sleep on vs the HEAT. And I hope the HEAT don't have that mentality in their heads ^.

...BTW, That commercial says it all! I love that commercial Nice pick!

Finally, LET GO HEAT!

I am so amp'd to watch both Conf. Championships! But who do you guys really believe is going to take it all at this point? WEST or EAST? ...wish we can set a poll here.
