NBA Thread 2006-2007

Now the Clippers got their ass kicked 94-75 by CSKA Moscow. I don't know if it softens the pain for the Clippers (if they have any ) that CSKA are Euroleague Champions... hehe. I'm happy European basketball is improving.

And the Clippers are supposed to be one of the top 8 teams in the NBA? :boohoo:

Raptors intra-squad game today at where I live!!! But I had to work and couldn't go!!!! my parents went and had front row seats...wth. Apparently, this Jorge Garbajosa is a player. And Bosh knocked down 4 triples, he says he's been practicing to add a new dimension to his game.

ShiftyPowers, funny thing dick bavetta is that everyone down here HATES the guy. I mean, everyone inclunding some media members though he was doing a bad job and not calling fouls or give them to the other team.

btw, i do think that Orlando will be better a playoff team and Chicago will go no higher than a 4th seed.

Dick Bavetta's been fixing games since 1847. He's at his best when reffing Lakers playoff games though.

No fantasy league this year? I'd setup it up if there's enough interest in doing so.

 

[Chacarita Juniors]

I'd like to play, count me in.

Season tips off tomorrow

 

[Vagegast]

I'm more excited about high school and college basketball then the NBA...

 

[$teauA]

the Heat just lost 108-66 at home to the Bulls on opening night. wow....

i mean chllin until the playoffs is one thing but losing by 42 the same night u got ur rings in front of ur home fans is just a whole other thing.

 

[ManU2000]

Nice way to start out the season by beating Phoenix without Kobe. Things were looking real bad during the first quarter with the Suns getting out to a big lead but we fought back. Odom was great and much to my surprise, Andrew Bynum held his own tonight. Granted, Phoenix doesn't have much of an inside presence so its not much of a test compared to what he'll face down the road but for a 19 year old making his first ever start in the NBA he did very well. Hopefully he'll continue to develop under the tutelage of Kareem.

That Lakers vs. Suns game was really fun to watch. I stayed up and watched it until the last tick even though I have an 8am class today

Odon was very impressive.

 

[Vagegast]

Can I have Hinrich's children plz?

 

[Deisler]

THe fvcking Knicks were leading by 20 5 minutes before the end and now forced in overtime they're loosing. Fvck am'

 

[$teauA]

Hahaha they won in triple OT

 

[Rocky]

So who still thinks Steve Nash is better than Kidd?

 

[Deisler]

Not in this lifetime. Nash is good but Kidd is well Kidd.

The Knicks are driving me crazy. Man how in the blue hell can you blow a 20 point lead.

Triple OT will do make am perform like crap tonight against Atlanta, just watch

 

[Jacky]

wohoo.. last night was the home opener and it was a fun game to watch...
I miss charlieV already

Renegades of Funk!

What a great win for the Bobcats tonight against the Cavs . I was at the game (largest attendance in Charlotte Bobcats Arena history)! LeBron got shut down 3-13 and only 16 points

1-2 and our next two games are against 0-3 Boston and 0-2 Seattle

Lazy to search for this:

Why did Kobe change his number?? it sucks

 

[ManU2000]

He wore that number in high school and wanted to wear it when he was drafted but someone had it already. He chose to change the number now for whatever reason.

 

[$teauA]

Because 24 is one more than 23. He's trying to convince people that he's better than Jordan.
