So this Mavs/Suns series is killing me. The 13 in my username? You guessed it, Steve Nash. It's great to see him get the MVP and all the success he's had in the desert, but I still can't help but miss him while watching these games.

That being said, Dallas is up 8 at the half.

Go Mavs.

Given that both teams missed about 273 shots during the entire game, there were plenty of rebounds to go around. Ben Wallace had 16 of them, you know.

The reason Ben Wallace isn't the new Bill Russell isn't because Jeff Foster had a good game. It's because his on-the-ball defense isn't really all that great (all of his blocks come when someone else attacks the hoop and he leaves his man).

They were stuck on 77 for 5 minutes staright while the Pacers blew their doors off.
33 points in 1st quarter, then 50 points combined in quarters 2,3 &4. The Heat will dominate them, assuming they beat the Pacers.

i know... i was being fecicous... i do that from time to time. i think ben wallace is one of the most over-rated players in recent memory. he's a notch above charles oakley,yet he's on the cover of magazines and video games and has his own commercials.

i think it's the hair... chicks dig the hair.

the pacers shot 37% from the field... and won anyway. the pistons played great defense... and lost anyway. so i guess defense wins championships but it doesn't win games if you don't score enough.

Hewson · 05-12-2005, 10:34 AM

Kenny the Jet quoted George Gervin as saying, the best defense is a lot of offense.
I think basketball is the one game where offense is a much bigger priority than defense (pitching in baseball).

And a trivia question for you Headache:
Name the 1 word in the English language that has all 5 vowels in it, in alphabetical order.

Answer: facetious

speedracer · 05-13-2005, 05:39 AM

facetious: joking or jesting

fecicous: full of feces

Hewson · 05-13-2005, 05:52 AM

The Wizards deserve to be swept after the way they rolled over like dogs at the end of that game last night.
I know 7 is a lot to overcome in the final minute, but you gotta try, anyone remember Reggie Miller @ MSG? I know Headache does.
Watching a jump ball get tapped out of bounds by your guy with 32 seconds left is bad enough (dive for the ball, at least stick your hand out, don't just watch it roll past you), but you gotta give a foul, get the ball and try to hit a couple of 3's. They let the Heat dribble out the last 32 seconds (which is tough to do with a 24 second shot clock, but they managed)...just pathetic effort.

So the Sonics beat the Spurs by one point and now everyone is saying that they have a shot in this series... after two days ago everyone was saying that they were going to be swept by the best team in the NBA.

I hate commentators...

Well if they were gonna get swept by the best team in the NBA, then they'd have to beat the Spurs in order to advance and play the best team in the NBA.

I can't stand listening to Larry Brown talk. He is so boring. Sorry. I live in Michigan. I hear him a lot around here.

heh heh, look at 'em now! "everyone" sure don't know basketball

I'm just a TOTAL fairweather Sonic fan - not afraid to admit it. (as a lifelong Seahawks FANATIC, I'm allowed some fairweather tendencies elsewhere

)

*finally hops on the Sonics bandwagon after they tie the series w/Spurs*

go sonics!

LMP · 05-17-2005, 09:55 PM

Ginobili and Mohammed completely killed the Sonics tonight basically by themselves.
Mr. Longoria didn't help much, I can't stand him...

Pistons will beat the Heat. In last year's finals, Shaq got his in every game, and the Pistons still won the series. And last year's Lakers had more non-Shaq talent than this year's Heat.

B.Wallce/R.Wallace/T.Prince/R.Hamilton/C.Billups/A.Mcdyess > S.O'Neal/Wade/Jones/Jones

Last year's Lakers definitely had more non-Shaq talent than this year's Heat. Unfortunately for the Lakers, all that talent was contained in the person of Kobe Bryant.
