NBA Basketball 2006-07: The Thread Part II

[namkcuR]

The first thread was locked to due to reaching 500.

Carry on.

Dwayne Wade could opt for season-ending shoulder surgery which would basically kiss the Heat's season goodbye.

Eric Neel has a really good article about Wade's injury on ESPN's Page 2 today:

Sad news: Former Boston Celtic, Dennis Johnson has died at age 52.

Yeah, nearly the whole last page of the first thread was talking about it.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Yeah, sorry I was a little late on that one.

 

[tpsreports2424]

it was nice seeing the heat win over the cavs cuz it gives the bulls a better chance but it still hate the heat...

so surgery or no surgery for d wade?

 

[LMP]

I'm glad to see Trevor Ariza's back for the Magic, but they might not make the playoffs in a godawful Eastern Conference and not have a 1st round pick in a loaded draft.

Outstanding Otis Smith, outstanding.

 

[Hewson]

Go Rockets

Go Grizzlies

 

[Got Philk?]

The Bulls lose again on the road...

 

[Hewson]

Big Ben was impressive in his return to Motown...6 points, 8 boards, 2-8 free throws...sounds like about $15mil a years worth.

 

[Got Philk?]

stop it. it's like salt in a wound when you say these things...

 

[tpsreports2424]

it wasn't even like it was a good game...we were winning by 12 and out of no where we screw up

 

[impy13]

The Spurs, with twice as many losses as the Mavericks, are #1 in Hollinger's Power Rankings.

Figure that one out.

He might blog himself to death.

I'd rather listen to Charles Barkley hyperventilate than the "basketball stat gurus" like John Hollinger, Chris Sheridan, Marc Stein, and especially Ric Bucher give their "INSIDER KNOWLEDGE"

I'm not sure any of them have ever picked up a basketball.

ha ha charles barkley hypernetilate

Darko had 14 points, 16 rebounds, 5 blocks tonight.

If only he were this good every night.

 

[Hewson]

Stupid flu
Stupid Tracy McGrady
Stupid Celtics

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Darko had 14 points, 16 rebounds, 5 blocks tonight.

If only he were this good every night.

remember, he's still just 21 years old...

and i will also add this, just to get philk's blood pressure up a bit

the center for the team in which darko dropped 14, 16 and 5? he had 3 points, 8 rebounds and 2 blocks... and his name is ben wallace. and for that stellar 3, 8 and 2 performance, in which he was tooled up by darko, he was paid approx. $195,121.95.

Of course, but some nights Darko's out there and looks amazing (hustling, making a bucket or two, altering shots) and some nights he looks like Dwayne Schintzius's character in "Eddie"

"Ivan make basket."

 

[Bluer White]

Darko might wind up as a poor man's Jermaine O'Neal or Tyson Chandler.

Big guy, didn't go to college, struggles for a couple years, gets a change of scenery, and suddenly becomes a very good player.

 

[LMP]

This is pretty much his rookie season anyways, and I think he's done pretty well. The Magic better put up enough cash for his extension, but I hope they don't overpay him by too much.

 

[Hewson]

Headache, this one's for you:

Go Knicks!

aside from struggling for a few years, that's about as close as darko gets to either of those two... and i do think darko will be better than chandler.

i see him in couple of years putting up 17 12 and 3

And he was guarding Dwight Howard...I could score on PJ Brown...

 

[Hewson]

Can Isiah Thomas get anything friggin right?

Damn 2 game win streak, Oden is a Grizz now, we are in the Durant slot.
If someone doesn't stomp on Paul Pierce's foot immediately we may be looking at Joachim Noah or worse.

 

[phanan]

The first thing I thought of when they won last night was how many mad smilies would be in your post this morning.
