Is it really so hard to deny Dirk?

He's kind of awesome.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

So who else actually picked the Mavs to advance? I had them in 7.

Can't wait for our first Dirk/LA series.

 

[Pkaz01]

you're gonna get swept by the Lakers, Dirk.

Haha I heard that too, awesome..

 

[lawlohwhat]

Alright lakers, I'm on your bandwagon the rest of the way.

 

[Duki]

duki there's a man on gaf who vacuums his head after getting a haircut. You should investigate.

ahahahaha what in the fuck

also loved you in that superman thread

can you do for comics what youve done for reality television shows staring lamar odom

i feel theyd be equally ridiculous

[Bumblebeetuna]

lol, you can hear Blazers game yelling about getting swept by the Lakers. Poor bitter Oregonians

 

[SamuraiX-]

How do they keep letting Dirk catch the inbound?

SMFH

 

[Branduil]

Not sure why Portland keeps going for layups at this point.

 

[kevo_huevo]

really padding dirks stats now.

gotta preserve dat 25/10 playoff average.

 

[The Frankman]

quit.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Lakers Mavs

Let's do this!

 

[Black Mamba]

3rd year in a row Portland falls short. Twice considered favorites.

Portland's style of play is not conducive to playoff success. I stand by it.

 

[Herpes Reasons]

Cool, ill give you and reilo laker avatars!

I hate comic nerds after reading that issue of Superman.

there are people who consider that literature

I had them in 7 too. This is gonna be a really good series man.

 

[Gigglepoo]

He's kind of awesome.

There's a chance I'm the biggest Dirk fan on these boards (not counting Mavs fans), but it's just absurd that he gets every inbound pass in this position. He never misses free throws. They need to do everything they can to deny him the ball.

Oh, and the Lakers should ignore this post.

 

[Branduil]

Lakers in 6.

 

[threenote]

man, blazers suck so much. They had a huge opportunity to take this series, but they gave up.

 

[thekad]

Lakers v Mavs.

Who does Brandy root for now?

man, blazers suck so much. They had a huge opportunity to take this series, but they gave up.

Bunch of quitters on that team.

Honestly, what exactly is their style of play? I know they are defensive based but their offense is just plain bad. No shooters, and only post up player is aldridge.

Portland was a favorite in this series? Are you fucking serious? The only reason the Mavs didn't win 60 games was due to Dirk injury halfway through the season.

Favorites? Lmao. Gtfo.

 

[Raging Spaniard]

I like this Blazers team ... but I dont see how they can go from 1st round vets to contenders ... unless Oden comes back, stays healthy and becomes an all-star I think you should start from scratch at this point.

 

[ghostofsparta]

WOOOOOOOOOOO! I fucking hate the lakers. I'm just glad Mavs hace a chance to play them in the playoffs. It's all or nothing baby!

 

[SUPREME1]

Sorry reilo. You deserve better.

Spoiler

I mean it. : (

When were they ever considered favorites?

 

[The M.O.B]

Lakers in 5

OKC vs whomever in 6

Move to Portland, Maine.

 

[zero margin]

Caron Butler might be back next round? Hmmm

 

[SamuraiX-]

Not a single 7-game series yet...

Fuck these Playoffs.

Come on, Grizz, you gotta lose tomorrow.

 

[kevo_huevo]

mavs/lakers could be an instant classic.

or go horribly wrong for the mavs.

mavs in 7?

its one of those situations where everyone bandwagonned so hard on the upset that perceptions became warped

Blowing shit out of his ass.

no it wont

Well, half of the ESPN experts did pick Portland, lol. Portland was definitely a sexy pick, what with them playing a perennial first-round loser even with the higher seed.

 

[seattle6418]

Why did Roy chose to be a spectator in this 4th quarter?

I don´t think he even attenpted a shot this time.

In the meantime, Matthews took a bunch of crappy ones.

Have faith!

Mavs are 4-34 in Staples Center.

BELIEVE!

Why did Roy chose to be a spectator in this 4th quarter?

Didn't look like he was moving well out there.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

I just realized that since the Mavs are in the second round, Caron Butler might actually play again this year.

If he can move they could definitely use his slashing, Mavs have no one who can force the issue in the fourth.

 

[Pkaz01]

whatt the fuckk?? at that montage song

 

[Darkman M]

Lolz at the music.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Worst montage song I've ever seen.

 

[kevo_huevo]

we getting trolled by the tnt music director.

 

[The Frankman]

WTF at the TNT ending music?

 

[reilo]

If ESPN is your source of argument, then you automatically lose said argument, no?

 

[Gigglepoo]

Oh god, that song was fantastic! Funniest moment of the night.

 

[methodman]

Slow rock?! Lmao

 

[dream]

how do I say goodbye to what we had
the good times that made us laugh
outweigh the bad
I thought we'd get to see forever
but forever's gone away
It's so haaaaaaaard
to say goodbye
to yesterdaaaaaaayy

 

[Basileus777]

They were media favorites, but that probably shouldn't count.

 

[CriginsMcJuggs]

Who is picking this fucking music haha
