Hey, when you were picked by every expert in the world to finish dead last, and even thought so yourself, you have every right to talk trash. Especially if you end up finishing in position for HCA.

cant argue with you there. however, this is the EAST, remember. but i give them a lot of props for making it so far. them and the heat have done things that nobody expected or believed that they could be done.

Hello Kings!

So the Mavs will take on the Kings.. what a fun series once again.
The Lakers against Yao.. another good one.

 

[SRB]

SON OF A ******* BITCH!!!! GODDAMN IT HOW THE **** DO YOU SHOW UP WITH SUCH LITTLE INTENSITY??? jesus ******* christ how do you lose to a warriors team who has nothing to play for, and who had just played the night before!!?!?! i mean WHAT THE ****?!???? god this is unbelieavable... fire adelman, trade webber, kill bibby, but for the love of god change something...

on another happy side note, kobe was his usual asshole self, shooting an improbable 3 pointer to tie the game in regulation (we'll let anderson's 2 missed game clinching FTs slide) and then allowed kobe to beat them in double OT. man, to lose the pacific twice in one night? i swear to god im gonna drink so much tommorow that any memmory of the kings will forever be erased in my mind.

however, this has a positive note. with this, we face the mavs in the first round. i would rather do that, and see if we are playoff worthy (our past month doesnt say so) but you never know. this way, if we exit early, il have less hangovers. so i gotta agree with coon. i like how it ended, and the lakers - rockets series will be good.


**** YOU KOBE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow!!!!

That all I have to say about the Lakers-Blazers game I just saw. Not only did Kobe make one Amazing shot he made two, one 3 to tie the game in regulation, then another to win the game and get 2nd place!!!!

Wow is this guy clutch or what!!!

Oh and just like I said earlier the Kings choke every time there's a chance to.

Why the hell is Kobe "his usual asshole self" just because he is a great clutch player.

 

[SRB]

im a king's fan... memories from game sevenfrom 2 years ago came back to haunt me when he just knocked us out of the 2 seed. i got a damn right to be upset at my team and him. also, just because i called him that doesn't mean i dont think he's a clutch player. he might be a laker, but he is one of the best to ever have a basketball in his hands. and he is still not in his prime.

[Hakeem]

yeah, excellent for houston. playing the lakers was our only chance to get to second round though I still think the lakers will win it all

 

[KoreaJjang]

Indiana V Boston-- I predict Bostons upset (Boston in 7)

New Jersey V New York-- Great match-up Kidd V Marbury (Nets in 6)

Detroit V Milwaukee-- Well...Detroit will win with their fken defence...(Piston in 6)

Miami V New Orlean Hornets-- I go for New Orlean to win!! (Hornets in 5!!)

---------
Oh damn it Nets V Pistons in Semis if it goes...


Minnesota V Nuggets-- Minny go through for sure (Minny in 5)

Sacramento V Dallas--Whew What A Matchup Offense V Offense...Likely will be High Scoring game!! (Kings in 7)

San Antonio V Memphis--I think its going to be easy win for San Antonio if all goes well and TIM DUNCAN plays like MVP (SA in 4 or 5)

Lakers V Houston--Very NICE~~ Yao V Shaq : Steve V Kobe
But still Lakers 2 main player is better than Rockets 2 player and also has better supporting cast (Lakers in 6)

Lakers V SA in Semis
Sac V Minny in Semis...geez west is FKEN MAD

Well, a series against the Rockets and Yao should be good. I think we'll beat them in 5 or 6. I was in San Diego so I missed Kobe's heroics but from SRB's account of the game, I'm sure I would have loved it.
