DAMN JEBUS I left the TV on The Score and Sam Mitchell is doing his post-game post-mortem. He just sounds SO INCREDIBLY disappointed!

"you just... you gotta shoot the ball" *pained expression* "you have to shoot. have to." *shakes head in utter sorrow*

Poor guy. I love him just for his heartfelt interviews and passion for the game... but it's my understanding the Raptors still suck and maybe a good coach would be helping that so maybe passionate post-game press conferences aren't enough. ;\

Check out Iguodola's line against the Pistons:

10 pts, 10 dimes, 10 boards and 4 steals on 4-8 shooting with no turnovers :eek:

What the hell is this? :lol

Dear Dirk

Here's a few excerpts:

Chari in Amarillo, Texas asks:

Dear Dirk ... I know this is a very silly question, but what do you suggest that I say to my husband to get him to stop bad habits, such as: Not putting the toilet paper on the roll, leaving dirty clothes everywhere, leaving empty drink cups around the house, etc? Every time I say something, it sounds like I am wanting to start a fight.

He is a pretty good guy, he let me have MAVRKS on my license plates, bought me tickets to see you play for Christmas, and recently bought me a plaque of you. What do I do?

Dirk says: "I suggest trying to compromise with him. I would bet you also have habits that he considers 'bad,' so maybe you can do a trade-off. Something else that might work is changing your approach. Every time you want to say something, try to word it in a very non-confrontational way so he doesn’t think you are trying to start a fight."

Ashley in Denton, Texas asks:

Dear Dirk ... My husband spends almost all of his free time playing video games. How do you suggest I get him to pay less attention to the video games and more attention to what I'm saying????

Dirk says: "Try turning the TV off, standing in front of it and making him look you in the eye."

In the next letter, Dirk lets this young man know it's time to act or move on.

Marley in Arlington, Texas asks:

Dear Dirk ... What up Dirk, I'm a big fan of yours There was this girl in my class and I had a huge crush on her. We didn't talk a whole lot but she still considered me a good friend. Then she finds out that I like her, she was always like she wasn't sure if it was going to work out but she never said no. Then one day one of her friends was like "Hey, why don't you talk to Marley?"

So I go and try to talk to her, but would just walk away. So, then my friend tells me she is going to write me a note. The next day she gives me the note.

She says a few things and writes a big fat NO! Then says sorry for the misunderstanding. Now she won't talk to me. I'm not sure if she is mad at me of what. But she hasn't talked to me or said "Hi!" in almost two months. Some of my friends say I should try talking to her, some say I should let it go.

What do you think I should do Dirk?

Dirk says: "I suggest giving her one last chance to see if she responds. You can’t wait for her forever, so if she isn’t interested then you need to move on."

Jason in Provo, Utah asks:

Dear Dirk ... I'm getting married at the end of the month and I've been put in charge of picking out centerpieces. What do you recommend?

Dirk says: "I suggest bouquets of 15 long-stemmed, yellow roses in clear or green vases. If you want to add some light to the display you should consider putting matching votives around the vases."

thats a great line. You should start rooting for him and the Sixers. Full time.

:lol

Something tells me Konex needs to take a vacation from basketball for awhile.

And he also needs to join the Tom Brady and Michael Jordan fanclubs...

Let it go, bionic! Jordan is retired! Move on to other players to hate, you have a good 10 years with Tom Brady.

I am being generous DM, if I was really bitter I could have wished for Konex to start rooting for the Rockets.

Just pray that he never becomes a T-Mac fanboy.

You think I DONT?! Seriously, when Juwan Howard went down with the knee injury I thought somewhere in Detroit, Konex was downloading a T-Mac video or something...

Konex, I'm not like bionic. I will become violent if you EVER cheer for the Rockets or T-Mac. Especially in the playoffs!

:lol

Who says I won't become violent? This was a rebuilding year anyway and I have the threepeat memories to last me for a few more years. Now if Konex is still around during the 2007-2008 season...

I was ready to offer a hit on konex when he started rooting for the Kings. Then they traded away Webber and that seemed to solve the kobex problem.

can you imagine how much $$$ Konex could be making by extorting pro athletes threatening to root for them if they don't pay up?

I think thats what happened to Shawn Kemp.

Atleast Nene Vs. Grant is fun to watch. They need to just get down and fight that shit out. :lol

Kobe needs to fake a comma or an abduction or something. This shit is straight up embarassing. Odom must counting his blessing and laughing at his own team right about now. :lol

Wow Devean Gump is back on the court.

I saw that when i watched the game for a couple minutes. I was starting to think he would never be back. Did he atleast look decent?
 

Blackace

His rookie year I think...

Anyways who said that Wilkins couldn't play? 21 points in Seattle's win today... all he needs is PT baby!!

Has Jordan ever missed the Playoffs in his Bulls year?

Nope. They made the playoffs every year he played. They didn't get to the second round, however, until the '87-'88 playoffs, when Jordan singlehandedly carried them into the second round by way of a record 45.6 point average over 5 games against Cleveland.


In the '84-'85 first round against Milwaukee, Jordan averaged 29.5 points, 6 rebs, and 8.5 assists as a rookie in a losing series.

In '85-'86, he averaged 43 points, 6.5 rebs, and 6.5 assists against the dynasty Celtics in a three-game sweep by Boston.

In '86-'87, he met the Celts again, averaging 36 points, 7 rebs, and 6 assists in another three-game sweep by the Celts.

In '87-'88, he averaged 45.6 points (an NBA record), 6 rebs, and 5 assists against Cleveland over 5 games in the first round before falling in the semis to eventual Eastern Conference champion Detroit.


So there ya go. :D

What will Konex do if the Heat win a championship? I kind of want Wade to put up crazy numbers and win a ring just to see what Konex will do.

T-Mac and Kobe star in the 2005 update of Trading Places!

"Please give me back my life, Tracy..."

Yeah, the thing is, T-Mac's not going to win a championship this year, much less three during his career. Thus, any comparisons between the two are simply invalid.

But hey, at least T-Mac does well on a team with a 7'7'' All-Star starting center!! :lol :lol :lol :lol

Hey, I can state my opinion as fact too

Sonics will be eliminated in the first round.

Gary Payton has played his way out of the Hall of Fame.

T-Mac > Ray Allen

See, it's fun!

Why is there a Kobe/Nike ad on ESPN.com? :lol

It only uses the name "Kobe", no pictures. You don't know which Kobe they are talking about!

Ugh, the Suns better not come out of the West. What a joke they are...

edit: Crap, only the Spurs and Rox (and Pistons) can save Kobe from the media backlash a Miami championship would bring >_<
