34 days and counting until the new season starts!

While never being a fan who's tied down to any one team, my team this season is going to be the Boston Celtics! With some top new signings, including two of my favourite players in Allen and Garnett, they're going to be one to watch...

If anyone is keen I've started a NBA Fantasy League. It took a while to setup, and was pretty complicated but I've come up with a good system I reckon.

Teams compete on which team wins the most categories each week:

3 Pointers Made
Assists
Blocked Shots
Field Goal Percentage
Free Throw Percentage
Points Scored
Steals
Total Rebounds

Tiebreak system is in place if any teams are even on categories...first tiebreaker is turnovers! So pick good ballhandlers!  :biggrin:

Waived players are on auction for 2 days until they drop to free agents and are up for grabs to anyone, first in, best dressed.

It's the first time I've got into this and it sounds like a heap of fun, just setting the league rules was making me interested in how things will go!

There's a maximum of 10 teams and so far I have got about 3 coming in (including mine) so we definitely need players! If any AM ballers want to join the details are below:

Website: http://ufc.nba.com/signup/nba/nba_commish_myteams.asp
League: The Championship Roster
Password: tcr23

Top 4 make the playoffs!

I've set the draft date as Monday, October 1st @ 12pm. While the live draft sounded the best, there's no way I can expect getting everyone online at the same time to conduct it, so the draft is by email. You are given 24 hours to make your pick (if you miss that period you get a random pick) then the next person picks.

As his Airness would say: "Welcome to the NBA" :slayer:

tupps old mate in the years that i have lived in a house with foxtel since i was in year six there has never been a huge amount of nba coverage so unless theres a big tiume shake i wouldn't hold my breath. Last year not even all the playoff games were covered

 Yeah the play off coverage was ASS last year.

 It was all the Western Conf. semi's. Nothing from the East at all :(

 Regular season coverage was pretty good tho IMO, 2-3 games a week
When I die. I want to be frozen. And if they have to freeze me in pieces, so be it. I will wake up stronger than ever, because I will have used that time, to figure out exactly why I died. And what moves I could have used to defend myself better now that I know what hold he had me in.

yeah i suppose the normal season coverage was alright but no where near the coverage of the premier league or champions league soccer of which you get pretty much every game.

i reckon really they should have dedicated channels to each sport like they do in america

 I would be awesome for an all NBA channel

 Fox sports were broadcasting them + ESPN so we had a few.

 Plus there is NBA action and Inside the NBA or something

I stand by my comments.

Tony Parker is French though. So that nullifies his ring.

Fuck it, I have no shame in admitting I'm on the bandwagon! As I stated earlier, never been much of a team follower, mostly been a fan of the way certain players get it done...garnett and allen have been favourites of mine for a while now, just so happens they both wear a celtics uniform now so that's who i'll be gunning for come season 07/08...

Fuck the Celtics mate. They've had their time. Suns for the ring this year. Nashy better get his MVP on again. That pretender Dirk will pick up where he left off in the playoffs, struggling to make a shot. Garnett will be injured and unavailable for most the season. The Lakers will fire Kobe. Shaq will retire. The Rockets will fail to make the playoffs. Keyser's predictions for 2008.

Well I started watching the NBA sometime around 1984 when it was on a Sunday morning after the church show Hour of Power and followed the Celtics up until Larry Bird retired in the early 90's. I must say I was swept up in the Jordan years and followed the Bulls more through the 90's purely because I loved watching them play. I haven't really had a team since then and haven't followed it as much because I am one of those "it's not as good as it used to be" people. But seeing the Celtics get serious again and hopefully come in out of the wilderness I reckon I may keep close tabs on them this year.

So to answer your question I am both.

Interesting to see how we will do, as the improvement will have to come from within. Look out for a huge year from Andris Biedrins, who tore the Euro Championships a new asshole. Was the youngest player ever to be drafted when we picked him up, reckon its gonna pay off big. Also lookin forward to see how Belini goes replacing J Rich. 2 totally dif players, but Nelson already loves him and he can flat out shoot.Already being called a steal at pick 18 and he  dominated for Italy.

In an absolute horror start to his career, #1 draft pick Greg Oden is going to miss his entire rookie season recovering from knee surgery...I feel bad for him, I was keen to see if he has the makings of being the next dominant centre in the game.

I'm also pissed off cos I selected him in my fantasy team... :doh:

Wow that sucks. I must admit though I didn't pay attention to injuries at all during my drafting process...kinda stupid of me. I was tossing up between Durant and Oden for ages too and I picked Oden because I believed he had the slight edge to make more of an impact at Portland than Durant at Seattle. Factoring in the usual stupidly strong Western Conference etc.

I've still got two of the best defensive centres in the game to cover me anyway, Marcus Camby and Tyson Chandler, along with Garnett as my PF I believe I'm a good chance to snap up the rebounding points each week...

wow really? i would say the polar opposite. Check Seatles roster, who's he competing with?(remembering no ray allen or Rashard Lewis) He'll be playin 40 mins a game and expected to shoulder the scoring load.

i had Durant a lock for ROTY, even before the Oden injury....

must say i don't really have a following for any specific team these days.

like most, i was a huge bulls fan for a while (thanks to my bro) but after a while i developed my own liking for the warriors. hardaway was my favourite player by a country mile.

while i had foxtel, it was hard not to support phoenix. they play such a good style of basketball and have an awesome team to watch.

When I die. I want to be frozen. And if they have to freeze me in pieces, so be it. I will wake up stronger than ever, because I will have used that time, to figure out exactly why I died. And what moves I could have used to defend myself better now that I know what hold he had me in.

Player to watch out for- Josh Smith from the Hawks. Easily my fave Non Warrior. Amazing athlete(his dunks and shotblocks  are ridiculous) and i reckon he's gonna have a huge year. Predicting stats of close to 20, 10, 3(blocks) Impressive for a small forward

if ya dont know much bout him, check out his top 10 from last year

Yeah Josh Smith should do well...I reckon Childress is another young gun on the Hawks who is also gonna perform...

Marion's style is hell crazy too eh...I don't know how he gets any accuracy at all from it...there's no wrist flick at all!

On an unrelated matter, check out the clips and discussion in these blogs...food for thought... (and some of Billups drives and layups are fucking wild in his top 10! Mad shit!)

Agreed.

Consider some of the clutch shots he's made:

'02 Western Conference Finals, Game 4 - Winning 3 against the Kings
'02 Western Conference 1st Round, Game 3 - Game/Series winning 3 against Blazers
'95 NBA Finals, Game 3 - Game winning 3 against the Magic
'05 NBA Finals, Game 5 - Game winning 3 against Pistons after a 21-point second half
'97 Western Conference Semis - 7 for 7 3's against the Jazz

the list goes on...

including a series winning 'shot' on Steve Nash last season...  :E

And two finals trips with NJ so for him to say this is the best team he's been on is either:

a) The captain talking up his team before the season starts to instill confidence in them
b) The truth

:lol:

Whatever, either way its encouraging.

I've used it for soccer before, now that the NBA is back I'm definitely going to check it...I recommend TVAnts and TVU Player only because the other ones I tried seemed a bit risky, they threw up some dodgy shit with my spyware/virus scanners.

The dodgy one was wicked though, PPMate I reckon, it had full movies and shit all from Chinese cable.

speaking of playing well, Dwight Howard has been an absolute monster for the Magic this year. hes had more dunks than 23 of the other teams and dominated again today. His Line? 39 points, 16 boards, 5 blocks

best Centre in the league this year by a long, long way

He's definitely shaping up one of the best power centres in the L (Yao who?  teef)

He finished with the most dunks of anyone in the NBA last season too and is heading that way this season!

got to watch a slightly condensed version of the celtics v cavs game. they managed to cram the game into an hour by cutting out free throws, replays and time outs, etc. did a pretty good job too, didnt butcher it and everything still seemed to flow with no massive gaps of lost time. pretty decent game, went to overtime... im just happy to be able to catch it regularly now!

worst game for detroit this year i reckon. their shooting was terrible, while the mavs hit everything including 60 something % from beyond the arc. credit to the mavs for good D and movement of the ball on offence though.

detroit backing up against the spurs now too.

23 point loss to NY Nicks is easily the worst. their 4th road game in 5 nights (dallas, san antonio, charlotte in OT, NY) didnt help - but no excuse really. they shot at 30%

had never left. Just as a veteran free agent in high demand, u can afford to pick your spots. Gives u time to evaluate teams and who could really contend with your help. Webber fits that for us


and yeah Webber started with us. Won rookie of the year then was traded due to a clash with Don Nelson, the same coach we have now. That trade fucked us hard for 10-12 yearsn cos we initially gave up so much to get him

and that's basically when i stopped supporting them.

pretty much gave up on the whole nba over than period though. couldn't watch it at all and newspaper articles just didn't cut it as a teen.

i started goin for the Warriors cos of the Run TMC days. Was shattered when Mitch Richmond was traded for (fucking) Billy Owens but that didn't change the fact they were my team. And from the record playoff drought, to Sprewell choking the coach and all the bad draft picks in between(Joe Smith #1 pick!?) that hasn't and wont change

I heart baron Davis

a stiff that Michael Jordan picked straight outta high school with the number one pick of the Draft. The Grizz did that trade for 2 reasons. One to get rid of Gasols contract. 2-to get rid of Gasol. Though still an awesome player, Memphis fans hated him after demanding to be traded last season. Many didn't renew season tickets because of him

But yeah, fuck i hate the Lakers, and they are prolly now the most talented team in the NBA

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=3232862

Sources: Suns a 'yes' away from acquiring Shaq for Marion

Sources told ESPN.com on Tuesday night that the Miami Heat have already agreed to send O'Neal to the Suns in exchange for All-Star forward Shawn Marion and out-of-favor guard Marcus Banks. Miami is simply waiting for Phoenix management to complete a medical examination of O'Neal and formally accept what would rank as one of most unexpected trades in league history.

"It looks like it's going to happen," said one source close to the situation. "We should know for sure by tomorrow."

ESPN The Magazine's Ric Bucher reported Tuesday night on SportsCenter that O'Neal is scheduled to arrive in Phoenix on Wednesday to undergo a physical. A source close to Marion told ESPN.com early Wednesday that the Suns have informed the 29-year-old that the deal will go through, with the forward eager now to move on after playing with the Suns for his whole career.

The Gasol one was more one sided, but can understand that one at least. It was Salary. This one is perplexing. Marion wanted out, thats widely known, but Shaq? Phoenix have done everything they can to trim payroll(include sell draft picks)over the last couple years so why take on 2 years of Shaq at 20 million pa? The only thing i can think is that they've decided their brand of ball cant win it all against the bigger teams. Gotta admit, if Shaq gets healthy, him pairing with A Stoudamire will be a fkn nightmare for any team to handle down low

Fkn awesome game, and what a win! Game showed why Baron Davis should've been an All Star. He took over

And the dunk comp will be cool this year. That last dunk in the clip looks insane, a good 2 feet behind the foul line. Spewin the NBA knocked back Dwight Howards(who got screwed last year) request for a prop,to raise the ring to 12 ft for one of his dunks lol

True. Round two over. Definitely between Green and Howard now. Howard should take it home as long as he doesn't fuck up and Green doesn't pull the best dunk of all time out his arse. Fucking Barkley's going nuts on the commentary!

 Green deserved a 50 for the birthday cake dunk. He got raped on that one. I was saying he should take it a step further by hanging on the ring, grabbing it and taking a bite laugh
 
 Dwight Howard was amazing though. So creative! I havent seen any of those dunks before.

 The one where he tapped it off the glass with his left then dunked it and his first one where he came from behind the backboard OMG slayer

 Superman dunk was unreal as well.

yeah dwight howard was dope far too good for the competition.

As for the super man dunk that was just shithouse, it would of been average if he didn't have the cape, however he lowered himself to shithouse by wearing the cape of the crappest most unimaginative superhero ever

If that. I got a decent Garnett card with him holding up the Celtic's jersey, a Behind The Glass Ginobli card, an Amare Stoudemire All First Team card and a Robert Horry Champions of the Court card. It's been a while since I've been in the card game, but I have no doubt the total value of all cards purchased would probably be around the eight dollar mark. Well worth the purchase for remembering just how nervous you get when you first open a pack and flick through, looking for that special standout!  biggrin

I'm curious to know how much a Jordan rookie card is worth these days. I remember back in the card collecting heyday, it was the Holy Grail and supposedly worth upwards of $2000 (but it could've been $200 from memory because that would've seemed like a fortune when I was a kid). A mate of mine who grew up in the States reckons his Dad (who's still there) has got one locked up in a safe at his house!

I have well over 100 Jordan cards, most expensive was a rare Olympic card and some Sam Vincent Hoops card which had Jordan in the background wearing a No. 12 singlet as his had been stolen before the game (the card was pulled from production when this was noticed so not many exist).

 teef

Sadly the most expensive card I have is actually an AFL card which is solid Pewter coated in 24 carat gold of Wayne Carey when he was AFL MVP back in the day. One of only 200 in existence, worth about $600.

I disagree. Though he never won a ring I reckon Karl Malone should have that honour...Larry Bird also played power forward a bit, he won championships too...this is my opinion right at this point in time however. I've got a soft spot for Garnett as well, one of my favourite players ever, we'll see if he gets a ring this year. Duncan will probably end his career above those guys but...


In other news, the Celts smashed the Hawks by 20 odd points in Game 1, lol! Big surprise...

 The Mailman was great, but not Duncan great. Agree with Quazz. Duncan hitting a three to take it into Double OT. WTF is that seriously.

 I am really hoping that Fox does a better job covering the playoffs than last year, though really I doubt that they will. 2 or 3 games a week doesn't really cut it IMO. Should be more like 5 or 6, especially given the first round match ups in the West.

 The quality of the torrent I grabbed on the weekend was barely watchable. Anyone know a decent site for NBA games?

Yeah fuckall on ESPN over here too. I was lucky they showed the Mav's v Hornets game 4 yesterday. I'd be pretty happy if they showed decider games like that, most of the time I have to make do with catching the quick wrapup collection of highlights on Sportscenter... bash

Celtics should bounce back today...Hawks are surprising everyone though damn! Lakers look like getting a good rest too, I think the Rockets are gonna even it up...

Edit: Oops, just checked the NBA site, the Celts played yesterday...and they won! icon_wink Smashed them again like Game 1!

As expected Cuban fired Avery Johnson too...coach of the year a couple of years back too lol. No loyalty these days!  teef

I bet D'Antoni is on his way out too, though it's not fair the team hasn't built enough chemistry yet with Shaq involved to make a run...

believe it or not, that's his first. I'd say well deserved too. Hate the cunt but he's a phenomenal player. Lock Chris Paul in to win a few of those by the time he's done

Speaking of Paul, he's raping the Spurs who are 0-2 in a series for the first time since 2001

Would love to see NO knock them out

If it's white, it's all right! Contrary to what the NBA wants you to think, there's still a rising perception that the league is interested in growing its population of international players who are of a lighter hue. The perception is that this is happening to appease white patrons exhausted by the behavior of 20-year-old millionaires gone bad—whose culture, and pigmentation, is different from their own.

Who was last year's Finals MVP again?

And you can't tell me Dirk didn't deserve the award for carrying a team to a 67 win record?

Or Nash in back to back career best seasons....

Kobe got it this year, Chris Paul deserved it too...they're not white or international...

Count yourselves lucky. In the UK where they have already had and will again play an exhibition game and have an NBA office, and also where David Stern said during the last exhibition game he was keen to grow NBA even bigger as he said it was a very important market. Our total live games each week during regular and post season. 0 thats right 0. One 1 & 1/2 hour highlights show on a Wednesday night. FUCK OFF CUNTS!!!!!!!!!!!!

How special is Chris Paul. Fuck me, seeing a CP3 vs. Kobe Western Finals battle would be epic. I reckon Hornets will bounce back in Game 4. They really only lost that game halfway through the last quarter anyway. They've got NBA on Friday's over here, the Spurs/Hornets game was on at 8:30am but there should be a replay tonight, I'll be all over that...

How about Lebron getting shut down in the East, should be a different story at home but personally I want a Celtics sweep...

Also who else thinks Detroit is fucked without Mr. Big Shot? It's a possibility, but there's still a lot of experience on that team versus a Magic team who's key players are playing this deep into the playoffs for the first time...

Fuck oath if he keeps this up and should improve (!!!) over time he'll be getting high up on some all-time lists for sure! I was reading in his first 7 playoff games his averages are the 4th best guard averages of all time over 7 debut games...

Edit: Found article, I had my numbers wrong, I thought it was higher than 6th...fixed now.

Sick dunk though.

I think another good one for height disadvantage is John Starks smashing one down on Jordan, Horace Grant and Bill Cartwright in the '93 Playoffs...I hate the Knicks but it's a classic moment...

Two of my favourite in-your-face dunks would have to be Carter's leap over that Argentinian player in the Sydney Olympics and the awesome Shawn Kemp one where he knocks the dude down and then does the double arm taunt at him on the ground.

 Yeah the Spurs are amazing.

 I love watching Manu, he is such a freak and plays different to pretty much everyone else. Pity he plays for San Antonio.

 Duncan argues every single call almost without exception, and looks so hard done by even when he plows straight into the chest of someone guarding him. We all go off everytime he questions a call laugh

 Parker has skills but I reckon he gets a lot of soft fouls called on him when he drives to the basket.

 Crazy eyes Kurt Thomas is gold. He looks like he is about to go get 'his other gun' from his car and bust some caps laugh

 Im on the Lakers now. Really don't like any of the other teams at  all.I wouldn't begrudge Garnett getting a ring I guess.

 On a happy note they are playing an truckload of NBA on Foxtel next week.

 booyah. I dunno whether they had heaps of complaints or what but it's awesome.

Kevin Love is shaping up to be a good one. It's all about OJ Mayo, Derrick Rose and Michael Beasley too, from what I've read all 4 of them ripped apart the McDonald's tournament last year, which showcases the top draft talent. Interesting to see how the teams that get them go, after seeing Durant have such an impact this year pairing him with another talent would bring the Sonics back to prime...if all the relocation shit doesn't fuck things up too much lol.

Interesting reading about all this shady agent dealing shit going on with Mayo too...classic Blue Chips material lol.


Another boo for the boring ass Spurs getting through...love them or hate them you can't deny their pedigree...the only team to come back from 2-0 in a semi series for some time!

My money is on K Love for an impact in the league (as well as aforementioned of course). He may be a whitey but he's apparently a really good all round player, only his fitness and extra weight was letting him down last year. I read this article where he's been cranking with a fitness coach working out like 6 hours a day and has lost the weight and gained bulk. Basically eliminating his few weaknesses.

Quote
His basketball IQ is off the charts, his footwork is strong, his jump shot has range out to the NBA 3-point line, his outlet passes are legendary and he has a series of step-backs, up-and-unders and spins that made him one of the top 5 players in college basketball this season.

However, what Love has lacked is explosive athleticism and a chiseled, athletic body. As a freshman at UCLA, he often carried a spare tire around his waist. He seemed to run out of steam in up-tempo games and, at times, looked like he lacked the athleticism to excel in the pros.

 Kobe waited waaaay too long to take over though. That was a true MVP performance, 25 second half points to end with 27 is a fair effort. My bet is he will come out firing in Game 2 (he basically said as much straight after the game). Pencil him in for 40+ i reckon.

 No way Ginobli will be so quiet in the next game either. Going to be an awesome series!!!

Hamilton played in his 112th playoff game, tying Pistons president of basketball operations Joe Dumars for second on the franchise's career list. He will tie Bill Laimbeer's team mark in Game 3.

Awesome isn't it?

It's funny how many comments I've read from whiny Spurs fans bitching about the no call on the last shot. Even Pop said it wasn't a foul! So amusing to hear about the David Stern conspiracy to let the Lakers win because of their superior ratings effect.

But there's one issue driving improved ratings that likely won't be touched by all the NBA talking heads on TNT and ESPN.

Tattoos. Or rather the lack of tattoos in the conference finals.

Part of the reason more people are watching these playoffs is because the average fan isn't constantly repulsed by the appearance of most of the players on the court. Most of the key players left in the playoffs don't look like recent prison parolees.

Inspirational comeback for sure! I can't believe some stupid (Lakers) fans are claiming on the net that it was a soccer style dive intended to have that effect on the crowd and team, absolutely ludicrous! More so when you read about how much worse his limp was getting as the aftermath wore on, indicating the natural progression of an injury. I fucking hope he can play at close to 100% capacity for the rest of the series, otherwise the Celtics are likely done. Garnett is a huge bundle of enthusiasm and Allen is inspirational but Pierce is without a doubt the leader of that team...

Wow. So much to say about game 2, I'll just throw out my highlights in a jumble of points:

Celtics 15-2 run in the 3rd which pretty much ended the game.

Lakers massive 42 point 4th quarter which was almost the biggest comeback in history I think. Boston should be worried with the defence at the perimeter (LA had 7 3's) and 4th quarter in general for letting it get that close!

Leon Powe, career playoff performance: a bench scorer smacking it down (if only he could hit his free throws Boston would have done this easy). That big half court drive of his was a huge blunder from the Laker's D...lol!

Rondo with a huge 16 assists, 4th for all time in the Finals.

That break where the ball got kicked out to Pierce at the 3 with a parking lot's worth of space to drain the bucket, you can't give a shooter like that (4/4 3pt for the game) that much space! More evidence of the Laker's terrible defence for the night.

The airball from a Laker's player that led to a break finished by a Rondo dunk. I was lik wtf? at how far it fell short!

What was with no tech on Odom for throwing the ball at Posey (?) on the floor?

Radmanovich's uncalled travel on the break after his big steal, which gave LA some great momentum in the 4th (did the ref's feel guilty or something?).

Huge foul discrepancy between the teams...not entirely sure if it was not truthful though, I definitely saw a lot of Laker's fouls but thought the C's were really clean...

Sweep anyone? I'm thinking Celtics in 5 now...

Well the run had to end at some point in LA. I was really hoping Boston could dig the hole a bit deeper though...

Scrappy as game though, House really shits me too, his shot selection is terrible, he was heaving up some contested shockers at some very crucial times! No wonder Doc hasn't been playing him much in the Finals until this point, obviously it was only out of neccessity (Rondo's injury) during this game...

One other thing I've thought, who else thinks Pau Gasol resembles a fish with his gaping mouth game face! rofl

SYDNEY Kings have been stripped of their NBL licence for failing to meet overdue player payments.

"The termination of the team's licence is the most extreme action the league can take when a club is placed in default, but in the current circumstances it was quite simply the only course available to us," NBL chief executive Chuck Harmison said in a statement.

 The NBL is pretty irrelevant now anyway imo. Boring as fuck to watch, I could barely make it through a quarter last season. They need to sex it it up a bit, it feels stuck in the 90's. Maybe extend the 3 point line or something games just seemed like a trey fest when I watched them.

 Anyway...

 Finals is heating up. Pierce, Rondo and Perkins all carrying injuries may hurt Boston if it goes to 7 (which I hope it does). The Celtics really are a class act, I enjoy Doc Rivers interviews and I never really knew just how good Pierce was before now.

 In saying that I still want the Lakers to win haha. Vujacic is a legend! Odom and Gasol (fkn ugly bastard) need to step up bigtime.

 Cant wait for game 4!

You absolute cunt! First time that the fucked unreliable programming schedule here has fucked me in this Finals series and it had to be an amazing game like that one. Here I was patiently waiting and avoiding results for 12:30, as the schedule stated, only to now discover that it's not on at 12:30 but the regular 9:30 gig like the other games.

I decided to check ESPN reluctantly to get the result and I find I missed a doozy (for Celtics fans anyway). Hopefully there's somewhere I can obtain a replay!

Fuck me what a massive game.

They seriously broke a whole shitload of records with that win!

Most steals in a Finals game, Allen most 3 pt's for a series and tied most for Finals game, biggest Finals clinching margin. Damn! Also the most amount of postseason games played to win the championship too!

Utterly amazing game, really happy I saw that, makes up a little bit for missing the big game 4...

The Lakers just capitulated there!

All the players the media had been bagging stepped up huge! Rondo, labelled as a not a scoring threat having a 21 point game 6 and looking hungry to score when he looked scared previously. Garnett not having any truly monster games in the series and after missing crucial game 5 free throws, draining 6 for 7 this game plus the usual double-double. Finally, Allen criticised for going to sleep in the playoffs, killed it in that game and the whole Finals series really.

I'm really pleased those guys got a ring at last! Garnett and Allen are 2 of my favourite players, I love the intensity of KG and Jesus is a gun shooter who I try to model my game after. He makes it look so easy. It was awesome that stretch in the 4th where he nailed 3 after 3, it really made up for game 5 where he missed 3 vital 3's in a row when you expected him to knock 'em down.

Congrats to the 2008 champion Boston Celtics! clap

 I just watched Game 6 up until KG kissed that one handed double pump off the glass to put the Celtics up by 21. I had seen enough.

 I knew LA weren't coming back from that. Boston way too good.

 I reckon that LA will be around the mark next year though. They need to get rid of Luke Walkton, fuck he is shit.

Glad the Celtics won...lotsa Boston fans here in Chicago, so it made for a great atmosphere!

I don't usually follow basketball, but it's been kinda hard not too in the last week!


i thought being in Miami youd at least follow the Miami heat?


Fuck Ray can shoot.........

One of the best shooting performances ive seen i reckon.

Yeah but it was Jordan, everyone expected a ring!  teef

A couple of years later would've been a hell of a backcourt with Agent 0 and MJ!

one of the most exciting days today-DRAFT DAY!!

Rose went 1, Beasly 2.

We picked the youngest kind in the draft at 14, Randolph. Wont help immediately but his potential is massive. Should only be starting college this year


happy

Nothing as yet. We actually got the 2 dudes i was hoping for in both the first and 2nd round, Randolph and Hendrix

What im waiting for is us to use our 10mill trade exception. The fucker runs out Monday. Hurry up Mullin!!!

Yeah heard the B Dizzle rumours, what would ya do then Quaz!? Though the one I heard was to Detroit if they can't sew up Melo so chances are they'd be offloading a decent guard (Chauncey or Rip?) in return.

Looks like Memphis are trying to fill the Gasol hole by drafting Kevin Love!

In other news Yi Jianlin the whinging baby is finally getting his wish and getting the hell out of Milwaukee! Should be ace for Bogut he'll get more minutes as starting centre now and he'll have the Net's Richard Jefferson as solid help in the post.

Spewing the Griz traded away Love for Mayo. The combo of "Gay Love" would've been funny for years

Ah thats sucks dude. You're not gonna get a big trade now...fingers crossed you can get some good returns from that freed up cap space...

not unless we perform a sign and trade with him(can't see it happening)

One positive is it frees up 17 mill in cap space, but alas, its not a great free agent group. Hoping we target Josh smith, but as a restricted free agent, i dare say Alanta will match

17mil?! shit.

apparently there was rumours of a move to detroit too - but im sure with a player as big as him they'll be talk of him going everywhere. not like detroit need another point guard though - stucky is going to be a star.


pretty disappointed with the way detroit played in the finals overall too. really just didnt seem to have the desire to win. i wont be too upset or shocked if a few big names go out of that team before next season.


with bynum coming back into the lakers next season, could we see some more classic lakers v celtics? bet the NBA would be excited at that prospect after the spurs being at the top for too long.

Baron yup-can't sign until the 9th but it's being reported he has verbal deal with the Clips

 $65 million sounds a lot.

 Then it sounds like even more when you work out that its $250,000 a WEEK!!!!!

 I wonder if he is ever out on a wednesday night, waiting at the ATM for his pay to go in at midnight so he can buy some more drinks.
