speaking of Miami
rooting for the Celtics just because I enjoy watching asshole vet teams grind it out and act cocky as hell even when past their prime (yeah no clue why) but at the same time … would kind of enjoy seeing the Heat just slap the shit out of everyone and go in full on heel. Very NWA.

Would like to see a Memphis and Atlanta Finals..................maybe lowest rated Finals ever.

but the fight for the Kings rages on!
Didn’t mean to hit enter on that prior post.
I think Bulls go up 2-1
I think the redacted get back into the series 2-1. I think the redacted get addition by subtraction with Ron Ron being suspended. Allows more Odom, who is a better matchup with Mavs. If Lakes lose, it’ll be because Odom had a bad game.
Its not "If Lakes lose" its "Lakes will lose".

LOL @ the first convo starter
None for me though, didn’t drink yesterday. But I did just take some ibuprofen for a headache. Pretty much a daily thing for me. Boo.
Not going to the party tonight, unfortunately. I want to so freaking much but I can’t. Closing at work and not only do I need the hours but I called in sick last week so yeah… can’t do that again. Bah. Hope you all have an amazing time though and be sure to have a drink for me! :)

Which is a good thing for Dallas, because I wouldn’t have been shocked if the Lakers went up by 10+ and kept it there most of the game

LA s throwing everything at them
But Dallas has been up for most of the game. LAL went on a huge run to end the 2nd. They’re up 4
Where can I send an e-mail to that Laker fan commentator (whoever the hell it is)

It's funny that game 2 could have been the last time the fans saw PJ as coach
and they were all like CYA
The way he lost his shit (by his standards) after Pau switched too early on Dirk in the first quarter was hilarious.

Couldn't help but cheer for the Mavs. Anyone BUT THE FAKERS.

I'm trying to remember the last time the Lakers were swept in the playoffs.
I know the Jazz did it to them in the late 90s. Was that it?
"He forced it to go in the net, and that's a good thing." -Jerry Reynolds
Just checked.
They were last swept in 1999. The Spurs took them out in four in the Western Conference SF.
"He forced it to go in the net, and that's a good thing." -Jerry Reynolds
I was thinking of 1998, when the Jazz swept them in the WCF.
"He forced it to go in the net, and that's a good thing." -Jerry Reynolds
I remember that series
Pretty sure most of the laker “fans” now don’t remember that.
Lakers Fan, but supports Here We Stay
SWEEP
Would make up, a little, for all the times Laker fans laughed at me for their horrible sweep 10 years ago.
Green thread or not?
Sounds like a good idea, since the Lakers are now down 3-0.

JK I know why you guys hate the Lakers
I still got faith, Lakers can win 4 in a row I think so. Stupid Gasol man, what in the hell is going on with him……..jeez. I don’t think they will be swept…because they will come back. I took a lakers jersey to school and all I heard was “Whats going on with the Lakers”
Lakers Fan, but supports Here We Stay
Man, at school I don't know what friends I'm mixed up with.
Three Laker “fans” and one Celtic “fan”. Can’t wait to go back to school and tell it to their faces when their teams are swept.
Sorry, Julyfish, for your pain, but I’m not feeling sorry at all for your team.

Hell he would just watch the Sac-Lal series.
I honestly don't think so.
DAL can defend, they can rebound, they’re great and moving the basketball, and they have…veteran finishers.

Wouldn't surprise me
But they’ve given away two games it looked like they had control of. Whatever killer instinct the Lakers used to have, it appears to be gone now.

not against this Dallas team!!
I love seeing Jackson pissed,and Fisher not get the calls he is used to.Glorious Day.I even got into a arguement today with a Laker fan.He was talking shit about Peja.Omg karma can’t wait to leave him a message.This is the last hurrah for the Lakers there will be a roster over haul this summer!

hust went to screen and roll
and boy they are really believing it’s the refs fault.Almost 90% are cryin it was the refs they are cheating us wha wha.One guy actually said ‘I feel sorry for the NBA cause the ratings are gonna be low for the rest of the playoffs".I can’t believe someone would think like that.They are upset cause the Mavs shot 25 fts or something and they had in the mid teens.One dude said it was the worst officiated game he ever saw.Wow really?I can remember one 1,000,000x’s worse.One where a gteam shot 27 fts…….in the 4th quarter.Another thing I thought was great was how the Mav’s were all floppers.Do they not know Fisher is THE worst flopper?Odom does a good one too.I’m just really enjoing this.I encourage anyone who needs a laugh to head on over and read those delusional comments.Usually after a tough loss it’s to be expected to feel a lil crazy.These are people who always get bailed out with the whistle so to hear them whine about it is great!!!Peja way to go!!!
