The Konex Principal is even stronger than the Jordan Curse. Jordan himself wakes up every morning and thanks god that Konex wasn't around back in the early-mid 90s to jump on the Bulls bandwagon and destroy everything.

Wrong, the Jordan Curse is LIFE threatening. The worst the Kobex Principle can do is just hurt players in terms of success. Jordan Curse can give you a career ending injury.

Penny Hardaway?

Grant Hill?

Jay Williams?

Harold Minor?

Don't you ever compare the Jordan Curse to the Kobex Principle.

Don't underestimate the power of the Kobex Principle. If Kobex had wanted it, there wouldn't even BE Jordan or "Jordan Curse"!!

Just think if the GA Forums had been around in 1985!

Jordan then proceeds to blow out his knee and Sam Bowie leads the Blazers to 10 straight titles.

On a serious note, does anyone else think the Kings will end up winning the Pacific? Suns are free-falling right now...

PS: Clippers blow yet another game..

Exactly. This is a fucking dumb trade. Now the Kings have Mobley, Bojax and Bibby playing the same position and similiar types of games. Three undersized shooting guards! And now no defenders! Except maybe Evans, but he is inexperienced. Christie dropped off a bit, but still one of the better defenders in the league and the team's best passer.

The trade looks really good so far. We won't have B Jax at all this season, and Mobley is playing the 2 guard quite well. He's played solid defense the last 2 days, and can actually hit wide open shots

It looks okay so far, its just a matter of how things turn out in the long run. They've looked even worse at rebounding since Mobleys been in the lineup. Hope its just the Clippers and not a reflection of the smaller backcourt. The bad thing so far about Mobley is that Kevin Martin isn't getting off the bench now.

On a serious note, does anyone else think the Kings will end up winning the Pacific?

Jaleel White (yes, URKEL!) disses Yao Ming! :lol


Yao is not The Answer

Houston, we have a problem!

Yao Ming should NOT be the focal point of Houston's offense. Not now at least. As a disgruntled fantasy league owner who foolishly drafted Yao in the 2'nd round over Amare "Man-child" Stoudemire, I am sick with regret. Yao is a tremendous talent and a cultural phenomenon no doubt. But I'm sorry- if you're standing 7 feet 99 above all other competition, I expect better than 28th in the league for offensive rebounds. Basketball is a rhythm sport... shake, rock, pop, count it... And it is quite obvious to me at least, Yao has no rhythm whatsoever. Somebody take this man to a nightclub. Pop a bottle. Bump some Ludacris in his car, please! Or better yet, sign him up for Debbie Allen's Dance Academy. Get his feet right for crying out loud. All that bowing and politeness and reluctance to knock a brotha in the head has got no place in the NBA. Either address the problem or face the facts, Van Gundy. Confucious say he be Rik Smits and nothing more.

Maybe he was expecting an apology from Yao to fantasy owners like Priest Holmes gave.

Jordan: "Suns beating my '96 Team's record? Not happening.

"Kobe winning the scoring title? DEFINTELY not happening!!"

It Is Written ;)

Well, it took a while to kick in, but it looks like the Curse finally made the round to LA's golden boy. I guess Jordan said "alright , Ima give this nigga a YEAR AND A HALF to stop acting like me. After that it's ON!!" Fellow NBA OTers, if you haven't done it yet, please, save yourselves and buy Jordan's Ultimate dvd while you can!...... Please??? The Curse is spreading quickly!

Finally a road win for the Raps! Damn 4th quarter from Yell and again, a double-double from Bosh. And did I just saw 15 assists from Rafer? :D

I didn't like the Bobcats game since I didn't think they deserved that win but this game is just awesome. Great game by the Raps.

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.
That was a dirty shitty thing the Grizz did by rubbing it in at the end of the game already up 16,you dont do an alley oop dunk at the buzzer for 2 extra points.


Grizz are one fucked up team...bunch of whiney ass hacking stupid douches!


Ps- Someone clone a pair of lungs and new brain for Yao to use...thanks a lot

Bish,I would love for a new tag,I dont want the word Grizz associated with my fine self :p

Sorry man, I wouldn't have put money down against those hacking bastards right now though, it seems like they can pretty much hack their way to victory against anyone these days (didn't catch this game though). Take my advice and make it up on the Pats game.

holy shit did y'all see Stromile Swift posterize Yao? Damn that was a sick dunk. Next time China says something about Taiwan, we should just show them that dunk and tell them to back the fuck off.

If the Bulls were in the Atlantic, they'd be in 1st place! :lol :lol

Kerr's Low Five:

THE LOW FIVE: The entire Atlantic Division

26. New York Knicks (17-20) – The Knickerbockers are 17-20 and tied for the lead in the Atlantic? Congratulations, Pinto. Your 1.2 GPA puts you at the top of the Delta pledge class.

27. Boston Celtics (17-20) – The Celtics' defense is nonexistent. Any chance Bill Belichick could join the staff as a coordinator?

28. Philadelphia 76ers (17-20) – Allen Iverson continues to battle and put up great numbers, but how much gas will be left in the tank after this season?

29. Toronto Raptors (16-23) – 13-5 at home. The problem is that 41 games are played on the road each season. The Raptors are 3-18 stateside.

30. New Jersey Nets (13-24) – Last place in the Atlantic, and Richard Jefferson is out for the year. Ouch.

Yeah the division sucks but for us Raptors fans it gives us hope knowing we can possibly finished 3rd. And since we suck on the road, home court would be great.
