f that shit. i hate the suns, because they are the total opposite of the spurs. all fun, no bore. at the end, the bores win the games, and the funs sit at home in june wondering why they can never win any gold.

guys i think should join the spurs the next couple of years: mike miller, shane battier, andre miller. these guys are all bore, but have a good understanding of the game.

Suns won't win it. Ok maybe unless someone breaks something because Dallas is angry from the previous final. I am sure Cuban and the players and coach are only seeing the Championship and no less. For the east, idiots...Bulls are up and coming and detriot. Everyone else are sleepers. WHo are all these miller's? Last Miller I knew was Reggie.

PS. About the SD thing Kapedan mentioned. I only use AIM and don't get me started. Should of known me 6 years ago. Then we talk about real deal NBA. NOw its all rebuild and new players. I am trying my hardest to keep up. Only thing I will care about is Good ol Knicks hahahaha

NBA died a long time ago... I think MJ's last goround with the WIZ is when I knew the league was doomed... I'll admit, I loved it, and he was the ONLY reason I wanted to go to a Celtics-Wizards game, but after he FINALLY left, it was over for me... no reason to watch/go, anything with the NBA...

Look at the Atlantic Division right now... its rather humorous... but, thats when you know how shitty the NBA is... not just the EAST, WHOLE league...

King Ecnal, thank you for you wise words. As always you explain the world to us.

Thank you so much for that, without you I wouldn't know what to think, what to feel and what to like.

THANK YOU!

You're Welcome...

I hate the NBA, much like I hate the NHL... BUT, I don't even acknowledge the NHL even exists anymore, because they decided to have ANOTHER strike two seasons ago, so I don't even care to comment on that horseshit league... the NBA is different, I hate, but I still care enough to comment on how much I hate... so I really care? I dont know, but thats my story, lol...

I dont know, but thats my story, lol...

so what was the team you liked when you cared about the NBA?

My team will always be Orlando.

in my opinion, the NBA is going through the end of their transitional phase, and going to start a new era very soon, about next year or two, depending on the talent pool in the draft. i have loved the nba since those old fogies boston celtics, showtime lakers, bad boys detroit pistons, and that denver nuggets-golden state warriors-utah jazz teams that lit up the scoreboard(before phoenix started doing it this year). of course there is a significant difference between the 80s, the 90s, and this decade.

two of the most important things have changed between now and then: 1. rivalries and 2. free agency. there are no rivalries in the nba right now. however, there maybe a nice heated rivalry brewing between san antonio and dallas, detroit and indiana, and cleveland and miami. these 3 matchups are going to be very good for the next couple of years. i still remember the old chicago-detroit, new york-chicago, and new york-indiana rivalries. there were some classic playoff games.

a big thing that has changed the game is free agency. a lot of players are getting either greedy, or teams always look for fresh faces every 3 to 5 years. i think kevin garnett is the longest active tenured player with 1 team at the moment. strange.

but no matter how much the nba changes, i still love this game. it's fannnnnnnnnnnnnnnntassstic!

who feels Kevin G's pain!! Personally he started the new era. Lets just say 120 million lol. When I first heard about his salary he wanted I laughed but he started the "oh its not about the $$ era" bunch of BS.Then came sahq and then....The NBA went from Skill and hard to find talent to Talent and who has it gets the $$$. Plus lets take a look at the recent drafts.


old skool : MJ was 3rd.. seems normal because #1 did not always turn out a lengend.

now: HS players. NBA became a young mans game but they got rid of that for now.


future: International players on the rise and latest #1 picked first. Lets just say USA was 3rd in the Olympics


Yeah what are the good matchups. Gives a good reason to go to that game or hit the bars. Yeah Knicks vurse bulls. Starks did dunk over MJ but MJ dunked their who entire team into the ground with his Carrer avg against them I think it was 30+ lol

in the end its where the $$ is at. Thats why trades and free agents and who can afford and can't are the reasons players are going all over the place. Most teams have this one bad year and one good year and then the players dissapear. Only teams that are sticking togther are..San Antonio, Dallas, Suns, Bulls,detroit.. thats why all other teams are up and down because they cna't hold on to players more than 2-3 years.

First of all...why would you sit down and watch hockey in the first place!!! 3 goals a game...sounds so exciting! only thing hockey has going for it is the fighting! nba is the best league in the world!!

Originally posted by Trancealot so what was the team you liked when you cared about the NBA?

grew up with the C's obviously... Larry Legend, McHale, Chief, Reggie Lewis... DEE BROWN!!!!

But I was in the minority when Danny Ainge traded Toine... I loved Toine... yeah he hurled 3's like they were going out of style, but he was the ONLY, well him and Walter were the two Pitino guys I liked.... yet I look back, and those Pitino years were so fuckin depressing.... jesus... now Red dies, and the team shits it up more than ever, Pierce goes down.... what a shitshow....

with that being said, Paul Pierce is the fuckin man, but he's got no supporting cast... therefore, the NBA to me.... is TMac, Lebron and Pierce, I really don't give a shit about anyone else... Arenas too, because he's on my fantasty team, but thats it!

I know, NHL is the WORST league in the world, hands down...

But the best league in the world is the NFL, and everyone knows it. NFL can DO no wrong it seems, the success they got is crazy... NBA might be more international... but NFL PWNZ all...

lol @ miami. first nick saban bolts out, now pat riley says no more to the heat (even though he announces he is leaving due to surgery. i don't think so). back to the old wannstache/jimmie johnson days for the city of miami.

what the F lol. When i saw the Pat Riley I did even wait to go to my favorites for cbssportsline I typed it in my browser asap. Dag your right. LOL Man after him and Phil Jackson leaves the NBA is no more.


Yeah right. I would never give in like those na sayers out there. Its a NBA of 2000 and beyond. Thats all. Pat Riley is the man. Sucks this season left him "limping and in pain" Man if the heat don't make the playoff it just be like Pittsburgh lol. Damn I talked about another sport. When Shaq gets healthy I don't see the Heat winning the championship again unless after the All-star game they turn their season around completly. West is no F'n joke. East....no words yet..I'll give them 10-20 games after the all-star game then all bets are off

there's no way in hell the Heat will win the championship again...even though I'm a huge Shaq fan he's just way to damn slow now. No way he can keep up with the fast tempo pace teams are starting to copycat from the Suns.

in other news, memphis defeats don nelson's golden state warriors 144-135 with NO OVERTIMES.

that's the formula! get don nelson to coach all the below to sub .500 teams, and have them play against each other! that way, all of them have no defense, but know how to score. then, nba scores would regularly be in the 120-130 range every night! how could we have been so stupid to overlook don nelson being the solution to bring scoring up in basketball games? if his team ain't scoring 100, his opponents will.

why they got rid of Memphis coach I have no idea. Freakin d00d took them to the playoffs. Just like my man aldeman. Now the Sac suck. Sucks you can't fire bad players but fire great coaches

That's a good point..if players weren't paid so much more than coaches, it'd be a lot easier to put more blame on the players.

gilbert arenas...mvp????

mannnn scoring 30+ does not eqaul MVP. Right now he is def all-star starter status though. If wiz make it atleast to the 2nd round in the playoffs then maybe I would be thinking MVP. Too bad NASH is rippin. Is it embarrising for the raptors he got some Canadian Sports award when they played them at their home in toronto??

Well... I WOULD hope Canada covets him like they should...

It sucks everytime I mention Steve Nash, I hear..."he's from Canada"

how I wish he was americano...

yeah no love for the canucks, sorry...

yeah. canada better show him some respect. they've been praising luc longley, rick fox, and jamaal maggloire too long, that they don't know what a real basketball player really is. canada probably uses the raptors and the old vancouver grizzlies as a measuring stick on the amount of talent the nba is.

i gotta say that byron scott is doing an impressive job at trying to keep the nook hornets spirits up, even though peja, west, and chris paul are all out due to injuries. this year is almost as bad as that year with dan dickau, lee nailon, big cat, david wesley, and pj brown were starting for the hornets.

canada > usa

europe > usa
