NBA sucks balls.
less attitude and $$ and more showtime (ala magic, bird, and jordan) is what the league needs.
and what's with the house performance at Athens? |

I hate to agree with this but i do.
games has becomed kinda boring,they last for like 3 hours and you have a whistle and wasting time in between by lingering like bitches!games should be an hour and 25 minutes TOPS!
But the Blazers are in the playoffs this year 4shore!:)
All those Denver,Jazz,Rockets and Memphis clubs didnt last for more than one or two nice seasons,and nxt year the Blazers will throw Reef,Studemire and NVE saleries and sign co-stars nxt to Miles and Z-bo. |

no need to playa hate the nba's state at the moment .. of course our eyes were spoiled with the magic that magic, bird, and jordan built .. but like music, it also has to be in the downturn now and then .. well i don't consider it a downturn, but i see the nba developing into some nice at the moment ..
the reason why people are uninterested with the nba right now, because there is no such thing as the "one-sided" section, where you know which particular team will always win .. back then .. everyone knew the lakers, pistons, celtics, and bulls would constantly win all the time .. do we want that?? the nba had the dynasty team (lakers : kobe and shaq), and if kobe and shaq could have patched their differences, they could have easily won at least 5 more championships before their careers ended.. free agency and money contracts have helped every team have at least one superstar on their team.
but yes i see the nba's future as bright .. currently we are watching some major super talent such as : kevin garnett, chris webber, shaq, kobe, jason kidd, t-mac, ray allen, rip hamilton, tim duncan, and mike bibby (and others i have missed) .. and the future looks very bright with jermaine oneal, amare stoudamire, dwayne wade, lebron james, dirk nowitzki, emeka okefor, dwight howard, elton brand, yao, and others i can't name at the moment ..
let's discuss this again in 4 years, and see how the status is .. |

the nba was seriously pissed off at the olympic performance. and so to were the players. they didnt take it seriously enough and just expected the gold medals to be wating for them at the end. also you have to remember that these players play in the toughest league in the world and will have been tired after a heavy season, and will have had less time to prepare as a team than the other teams, who will therefore inevitably be more organised.
as for the nba. it is the best place to see basketball, and 1000000000x better than british basketball for a start. theres still plenty good players in the leagues nowadays as Truesonic has said. le bron james and has already been comapred to magic, so you cant deny that the big stars are in the making. plus theres good foreingers in the league now like dirk lewitsky (sp), tony parker, and the chinese guy at housten.

getting off topic here a bit ..
the spurs beat the "supposed" #1 team the suns by double digits the other night .. so who's the better team phoenix???
hahahah .. looks like the spurs have the most solid team in the nba right now .. i thought they would lose a lot when they lost turkgolu (who is the biggest X factor in orlando right now .. ), but brent barry is filling in nicely for them, and bruce bowen has stepped up his game a bit from his horrible play last year ..
miami is looking good right now, but i think wade should conserve that extra energy he has until april or may .. van gundy should be playing dooling and damon jones more to get wade at least 33 to 35 minutes a night .. or we could be seeing the iverson effect .. so many minutes during the reg season, he burns out in the playoffs ..
and no one is talking about the new jersey trade for carter .. that team has made the step up to be the better .500 team in the horrible atlantic division .. no one seems to want to win that division. |

the suns have a long way to go to become a powerhouse, need to improve that defence
I always like Brent Barry,when the spurs signed him, i was like thats it NBA Finals (barring injurys)
If the Heat win alot of games early, maybe Wade wont have to play that much towards the end of the season.But I see what you mean
That Raptors to the Nets looks like crap on paper but the truth is Vince wanted to get the hell out of there. Vince just didnt have that much trade value(says the raptors GM) so they were desperate.They were gonna trade Rose and Carter to Portland for Abdu rahim, derek anderson and vladimir stepania, but it didnt fall through.I d like to hear a raptors fan point of view on this. |

| Phonix and seattle won't less in my opinion,those 2 teams live and die on their 3pointers and like Pat Riley said: 3pointers is gold for fools" |

| I think Vince Carter in going to have a very successful second half with the Nets,I have always thought he wasn't much of a leader and didn't have the character to be the man even back when he was at Carolina.Now that he is a complimentary player and asked to be a scorer plus with a good amount of nudging and prodding from Kidd and jefferson,he will become a high value commodity again by next off season. |
