Best Kobe gif ever! LMAO

 

[soap]

Ya that GIF is great


I never liked Mike Brown in Cleveland either. I think Byron Scott is much better.

They have a couple weeks to turn it around. People forget Spo was one game away from losing his job last year.

 

[BEHR]

My Houston Homer picks on my fantasy team have been killing me this week look

Brown sucks.

Well as long as Houston has a better record then LA Im happy

 

[The Real Gamer]

Can't wait to see the Heat play in person for the first time tomorrow!

I plan on pissing a lot of Hawks fans off with my '12 championship jersey. >:D

 

[ahchoomattchu]

Kevin Durant so clutch.

 

[Nike.]

Tough loss for the Bulls. Except for Carlos Looser, they played with alot of heart and effort. Rose was greatly missed there in the 4th while Durant's clutching it up at the end.

Would be really nice to see them get a top3 seed for the playoffs.

 

[Jane]

despite boozer playing worse rather than better a lot of the time... i cant help but root for him. i dont know what it is about him, but im a fan.

i cant wait until drose is fully and properly integrated back into the bulls. as long as he's back by december (hell, even january), and of course granted that he doesnt injure himself on a wreckless play again, they should be a fairly scary and exciting team.


my god, bledsoe is smooth.

 

[Nike.]

He's not expected to be back until after the ASB. I think sources are saying mid-end of feb right now.

Went shoe shopping today for running. Saw the Drose3 shoes. $160

 

[Masmasher@]

deng is like a lucky box in tekken lol
fool got 27
streaky shooter im surprised the game was that close
and rose wont be the same player for a long while maybe next year

 

[Nike.]

Mike Brown was just fired.

Stan Van Gundy. DO IT, STERN!

 

[Masmasher@]

theboredone should be pleased
now they should hire dantoni lmfao
or stan van gundy

Edit
lol @ nike we had the exact same idea

 

[Deleted member]

whoa RIP MIke Brown

 

[theeboredone]

Eddie Jordan I assume is going to take over...ugh

Nvm. Earnie Bickerstaff. No idea who that guy is.

 

[Jane]

nvm i'm ********.

but if they brought SVG, that would be hilarious and a total troll move.

 

[The Real Gamer]

WTF he got fired already?

Lakers don't mess around! lol

 

[ahchoomattchu]

If Sloan came out of retirement to coach the Lakers, I would cheer for them for once.

 

[theeboredone]

They need someone who will garner instant respect. Sloan is definitely a guy to consider. Brian Shaw is another, though I'm not sure how he'll handle the "win now" mentality LA office has.

 

[The Real Gamer]

Of course of my favorite player has a "cold" the ONE time I finally get to see the Heat play in person... OF COURSE.

And the worst part is that Wade was seen partying last night at a club. -.-

I'm salty as hell.

 

[CableCho57]

I was also thinking Brian Shaw, but he probably doesn't have enough on his resume to coach a team with expectations like this

 

[Tacket]

Good game, Hawks...

 

[theeboredone]

Good win by the Lakers tonight. They were all playing more freely, and Gasol was definitely playing with an edge. Love when he shows up like that...which is 1/10 games.

 

[ahchoomattchu]

My man Tim Duncan needs to save these vintage performances for the playoffs.

 

[SoulPech]

Screw the Cavs.

Up by 24 points in the first 14 minutes of the game against the Suns, then loses by two points.

ugh.....

 

[The Real Gamer]

Josh Smith tanking my fantasy FT%. SMH

I had a great time at the game last night though. My girlfriend and I pissed a lot of Hawks fans off because of how loudly we were cheering for the Heat. Once LeBron hit the dagger to end the game a Hawks fan behind us yelled "you bandwagons need to STFU!" as he was leaving. lol

 

[Hot_ArmS]

I thought hawks fans don't come to games, or are those just the ones actually in the Atlanta area

 

[Tacket]

And bring on the constant Atlanta negativity trolling...

Despite the fact that we actually had a good game, and Josh Smith is still a great player despite one bad game.

Why would you even have any Atlanta player on your team if you are going to constantly criticize them despite them having a good season so far?

 

[The Real Gamer]

It's fantasy basketball... You don't pick players based on who you like. lol

 

[Tacket]

Well, if you picked Josh because he is good, then would you do me a favor, and stop constantly criticizing his play. He's just coming an ankle injury, so of course he's going to be kinda rusty coming back. You should have picked Jeff Teague on 1. He's without a doubt reached All-Star level play.

 

[Nike.]

He just mentioned the FT% lol.

 

[The Real Gamer]

He just mentioned the FT% lol.

For realz. >.>

 

[Tacket]

TRG and Nike. You guys + boredone, Jane, and CableCho. Should know how much my estrogen levels rise whenever the Hawks or any Hawks player is falsely criticized (by my perception). I swear, out of all NBA teams, we get the most ****, and why, I have no idea.

 

[Nike.]

TRG, got any game pics?

 

[Masmasher@]

Screw the Cavs.

Up by 24 points in the first 14 minutes of the game against the Suns, then loses by two points.

ugh.....

yeah i was pissed
bad enough me and my friend lost our money at the casino but to see that was just...bad.
but they will be back home soon to recoup (bunch of youngins lol). just gotta play the thunder i think which will be fun lmfao

 

[The Real Gamer]

TRG, got any game pics?

Yeah just one. We were in the nosebleeds so it was hard to get a decent shot with just my camera phone.

Tipoff:

 

[Jane]

Screw the Cavs.

Up by 24 points in the first 14 minutes of the game against the Suns, then loses by two points.

ugh.....

haha what a nice surprise. i was keeping up with the score and deemed phoenix dead relatively early on. do you know around what time the comeback started?

similar thing happened to the suns vs orlando, cept the suns were the ones who lost their big lead. and by the end it wasnt close like this game. lol

as long as the suns have a good record versus the doodoo teams, i'll be happy.



holy ****, chris broussard is saying that phil jackson returning is a strong possibility.

 

[The Real Gamer]

holy ****, chris broussard is saying that phil jackson returning is a strong possibility.

In all seriousness though a Phil Jackson return is looking very probable right now. It makes the most sense for the Lakers.

 

[mood4food77]

damn, look at those knicks

 

[Masmasher@]

lol the suns in the same tier as the cavs they par at best dont get it twisted
and the knicks will be contenders till ******* amare comes and ****s it all up

 

[The Real Gamer]

I'm kinda irritated that the Heat didn't show up for that game now. Heat could have been 6-0 and certain Knicks fans wouldn't be proclaiming their team as "the team to beat in the East."

However I do think the Knicks will be a top 4 team in the East this season. This looks like the year where they finally play to their potential, but Amare could possibly mess up team chemistry when he returns so we'll see.

 

[Jane]

lol the suns in the same tier as the cavs they par at best dont get it twisted

i know that bro. all i'm saying is i want the suns to be the (unexpected) winners of the losers.
