Oh shit, just saw the replay of the end of that Wizards game. Damn, that musta been some high-drama. Sucks for the Bulls, but looks like Washington deserved that one. Ben Gordon is still a pimp. If he didn't get that 6th Man, they would have had to have given him the Rookie of the Year. PEACE.

Its seems in all the losses this series for the Bulls the only players who are stepping up are Hinrich and Gordon. Though Tyson Chandler had an excellent game. I just want them to win this series so they can go into the off-season saying at least they got eliminated by shaq and the gang.

goddamit, Griese!
the bulls just need to not get down early. theyre in this horrible habit of coming out of the first quarter already down 10+

if they can somehow win on friday, all bets are off for game 7.

That was an awesome finish to the Bulls/Wizards game. I can't believe fucking Jannero Pargo almost beat the Wiz by himself. :lol

I want the Bulls to win the series, but I have to admit I didn't want the game to go into OT because it was cutting into the Spurs game. :-( So, GO ARENAS! :D

Seriously, this pisses me off to no end. Stay close you young bastards!

And damn, the Spurs are looking really good.

The Spurs' arsenal is so solid. The Nugs have done really well this series to keep it so close throughout.

Exactly why did the Knicks trade Mohammed? Nazr makes less money, is younger and his contract is much shorter than Malik's. Forget the fact that he's a pretty decent big and it's not like SA will have high draft picks. So what did Isaiah get out of this deal? :lol

When the HELL did the forum come back online? It's been down for me for about 4-5 days, I think. I missed all this discussion, but I'm not about to go back and read the last 400 replies. :p

And that was a RIDICULOUS shot by Pargo, and a RIDICULOUSER shot by Arenas. Wow. Hinrich couldn't have played him any better-- he was all up in his grill.


Duncan was precision with his passing and control of the game in the halfcourt tonight, too.

I'm so proud of the way the Spurs handled this series after Game 1. Now the team moves on and gets healthier with every day that passes by.

Now bring on the Sonics! It should be an excellent series. Seattle presents many matchup problems to the Spurs, so it'll be interesting to see all the coaching adjustments from both sides.

And to say goodbye to the Nuggets...

:lol Freakin' Elway! :lol

One last thing, since when is Buckner considered a defensive specialist? I didn't see him do one good defensive play the whole series. I got sick of hearing all the broadcasters say he was one.

Weird. It hasn't been down for me. Then again, I switched to www.new.ga-forum.com a while back, so that might have been the answer.

I think they're just trying to be nice, and saying it out of pity. What're they going to say about his 16 minutes of 0-1 ball? He sucks?

The East should just skip the next round of the playoffs and go straight to Detroit/Miami because the other teams don't have a chance in hell.

It was weird seeing the Bulls just fall apart the way they did in the playoffs, they can look so good at times. That comeback was pretty amazing last night, but I have a feeling Arenas was going to end it. That guy has a knack for making big shots.

Oh yeah, Earl Boykins is now officially the greatest NBA player in history. I couldn't believe how great he was playing during that whole series. Not bad for a guy who is listed at 5'5" and 130 pounds.

Since you have been away for so long Loki, this is for you: Earl > Jordan. :D

I love this one, gotta post it again...

MIAMI -- Nearly a year after the trade, the verbal jousting between Shaquille O'Neal and the Los Angeles Lakers is still going strong.

One day after Lakers owner Jerry Buss said O'Neal found motivation for losing weight only after being traded by Los Angeles to Miami, the Heat's All-Star center took issue with the remark.

"I didn't need motivation," O'Neal said. "I needed a real owner. ... I needed a real owner like Micky Arison. You can quote me on it."

Buss also said he doesn't regret trading O'Neal to Miami.

"And I don't regret him losing money and his not making the playoffs," O'Neal said.

On Wednesday, Buss said O'Neal was not willing to get into shape when he played for the Lakers. O'Neal, who played at an estimated 370 pounds during his final season in Los Angeles, is down to about 325 in Miami.

"It seems that the motivation for him to lose weight was to trade him," Buss said Wednesday. "I suspect if I knew he was going to lose 60 pounds, I might have made a different decision."

ooooooh snap.<someone post that picture I need it!> I thought Shaq lost weight just before the start of his last season in LA? I could have sworn I remember articles before the season started talking about how much weight he'd lost and how he was looking leaner, etc...

He did lose some weight before last year, but not as much as Phil had asked him to. That has been a long running argument between Phil and Shaq since Phil came to LA. Phil wanted him to slim down so he could be quicker and play better defense and Shaq wanted to bulk up so he would be able to better absorb blows and also just muscle people.

Here's a shocker for you Laker fans.

Right after Konex said that, the Celtics went on like a 20-2 run :lol

Fuck Shaq. He's lucy he's so "lovable" and the media just eats up all the bullshit he spews. What a disrespectful asshole to say shit like this. A "real owner"? You mean the guy who paid you $30 million a year the last 8 years, while you gave half an effort, didn't work out, didn't get in shape, delayed surguries so you could have your vacation, ect...wasn't a REAL owner? And you people STILL think Kobe was behind Shaq getting traded? :lol

Paul Pierce is a fucking retard.

God, doesn't anyone in the NBA have a brain anymore?

Hopefully Yao uses his tonight and forces a game 7. :D

COLOSSAL blunder by Pierce. Wow.


Damn, if Miller wins this game, the crowd is gonna go nuts and Paul's teammates are gonna sodomize him with a broomstick. :p

Wait, so Paul was supposed to shoot the FTs, but he was ejected. Then doesn't it go to the next best FT shooter on the team?
