Their game is solid I admit but their personalities just bore me to death. I dont like AIs off the court drama but I love seeing the passion he plays with when theyre down. Pistons just go to work and it looks like theyre having fun. Spurs just bore me.
Good pick Cold!
I lllooooovvvvveeee college football. Thats one thing I miss about being on campus.

Why do they "bore" you sweet lady? Is it for the reasons I posted above? I will admit that they don't compete with the AIs, the Carmellos, the Kobes and some of the other more "colorful" players in the game, but I don't know how anyone who has ever REALLY watched the Spurs play can call them boring. It must be for "off the court" play rather than what takes place at gametime. That's about the only reason I can see. One problem I have with the Spurs is their constant complaining with the refs. I swear Tim Duncan has NEVER fouled anyone, to let him tell it. They ALL whine! The Hornets did their share of it, and those fans of theirs don't think they should have anything called on them. They booed the whole first game. LOL!!

That's it Sis............they have no personality! And they're in boring black. I am going for the Celtics but I'm a fair-weather NBA fan. I only support the playoffs. But I'm a real deal football fan!

Your right... but NOW they'll be going against the 3 time Champion/MVP Kobe Bryant . Kobe is playoff tested and so is D. Fish! And Pau Gasol is made for the big game and has played in HUGE international games before. Lakers in 6! You heard it here first!Oh and for the LOVE OF GOD, will someone PLEASE MAKE GINOBLI GO RIGHT!!! Kobe- playoff tested and so Fish. I guess you've either forgotten (or choose to ignore) that same fact about the ENTIRE Spurs team. And remember what I told you about "Big Shot" Bob Horry....I guess NO didn't believe he had anything left, huh? ;D I'll say one thing for these playoffs...it and some of y'all have been very entertaining throughout! I heard that about the last series Jay, and I heard it from you FIRST too! You might need to tune up your ouija board and magic 8 ball before YOU make any more predictions!! Ima do a Tonya Harding on Big Shot Bob Horry...lol... I can't stand that dude! He ain't do nuthin all year and that joker was raining 3's like he was in the layup line

Boston took game one of the "Who Cares" series, lol.
The Bulls won the draft lottery. They should take Rose over Beasley.

Everyone knows the NBA is a media league, which makes it a fixed league. Allow me to spit my lil theory: There are three teams that garner the most revenue for the league, the Celtics, Knicks, and Lakers. (Btw: name me one year where all three franchise were horrible...I'll wait"
The media league explains that Kevin M. And Danny A. bullshit trade for KG, the league needed a powerhouse in the East and the Knicks aren't gonna be a powerhouse for quite some time.
How do you explain the Lakers getting Gasol for Kwame 'motherfucking' Brown...are you kidding me??
It also explains Patrick Ewing going to the Knicks in that draft...everyone and their mother knows the Warriors was suppose to get Ewing in that draft. Which is why old boy from the Warrior was heated back in the day...
So I'll cut my rant off here. The point is the league gets more money when certain teams are good. And they will do anything they have to do to makes those teams good. Gotta give it to David Stern, he's a good businessman.

Everyone knows the NBA is a media league, man. I've been saying that for years. That's why er'body likes to root for the Lakers, and in the 1990's the Chicago Bulls (Chicago..the 3rd largest media market behind NY and LA.) I have to say this though...being in NY ain't meant "shite muslim" for those sorry Knicks!!

See, as I said. The wants the Lakers, Celtics, Knicks to be good. They got two out of three...Isiah fucked the Knicks up pretty bad. I'll give the Knicks until 2010, then they'll turn it around.
And don't be surprise if the Knicks make a run at King James in 2010. He'll be the Patrick Ewing of the 2,000s for them. By 2010 the Celtics would be old and the league will need a powerhouse in the East once again.

Lebron will be in New Yitty in 2010... no offense to my midwesterners...but Lebron, .like many others CRAVE the "Big City" media attention. Kobe's in LA, he'd be living in MJ's shadow in Chicago, so New York is the perfect fit. He'd rather play with the Nets in Brooklyn since he's a shamless Jay-Z groupie, but that move won't happen for a hot minute so he'll be in the orange and blue!!! By then we should be out of the MESS that Isaiah got us in and ready to throw some serious scrilla at him, plus we'll be free of Stephon "I make every team I'm on lose" Marbury.

All this can be stop if the NBA will shift into a hard salary cap league instead of that soft shit they got going now. But of course they won't....

Basically... J. Kidd looks average at best verses cp3...during game one, when CP was taking Kidd apart, he looked over at Avery Johnson and said "He can't guard me"...lol... I know Avery Johnson was ticked off, cuz frankly, he was right The worst part of this whole scenario for Dallas is, Devin Harris is a waaaaaay better on ball defender than J. Kidd. He's quicker, more agile and has longer arms. How you like that trade now Cuban??? That trade didn't workout at all.
