Are there any here? I know the Mavs are out but does anyone follow basketball? I've been a Spurs fan since I was a kid, now that Duncan and Pop are getting close to retirement the Finals are a big deal for me this year. Wish I was home for it, at this point I wouldn't hesitate to throw $1000 down to get a seat at the Finals.

The NBA is nothing more than actors dribbling balls. Flip, flop, flipiddy, flop.

it started going down hill in the 90s.

Don't get me wrong, there are still PLENTY of skillful players playing, but it just isn't what it was.

I don't care for how the Heat built their team, but since Boston started the trend a few years back and LA tried to do the same, I guess that's how it's going to be.

Being a L.A sports fan has had it ups and downs.

Up = Lakers, Angels and Kings

Down = Raiders and Rams (when they were both L.A teams of course)

A large percentage of Raiders fans are nothing but wannabe thugs. lol

I despise the Yankees and Lakers. They will ALWAYS be good teams, they both have so much history and the biggest sports markets in the nation, not to mention they'll pay triple the salaries and not even glance at the luxury tax. Now I'm not hating on the history, just the fact that it's so easy for them to acquire and retain already developed players.

If Steinbrenner isn't worried about it, why are you? All he wanted to do was win..at all costs. Winning is all that mattered. Why? Because that is what sells tickets, merchandise, endorsements, sponsorships, money from the state etc. It's big business and there is much more to it than just baseball and he figured that out a long time ago. The very same reason Jerry Jones still holds on to the Cowboys even though they suck - because it's a money makin machine.

I don't expect SA to run over them, the Heat are obviously the best in the East, BUT as game 1 shows, they have their weaknesses. Not that I want them to win, but if the Heat were smart they'd get rid of Bosh and get a good big man.

Lol, that was dirty. Tiago is a bit of a wuss for a big man though.

I had a feeling they'd split in Miami, didn't expect a beating like that though, it happened quick. Oh well, that's probably better than a close win, maybe they will focus a little better in game 3.

3 (1 of which is Bonner) out of the 10 that regularly see playing time make the team old? And Duncan as old as he is is still a lot better than that garbage that Bosh and Anderson bring to the court. He's damn near outscoring, rebounding and blocking both of them combined.

Not everyone hates them because of that.

I hate the egotistical attitudes that they have. Wade isn't as bad as Lebron and Bosh, but he it's exactly quiet either.

Play the game with respect and respect other players. It's okay to get pumped up after dunking on someone, or making them look like a fool on a fast break, but you don't have to get in their face to prove anything. Let your skills do the talking. Another reason I hate the bogus ass acting showing most of the faggits put on with the monster flops when a fly runs into them.

The whole I need a 1hr espn special to announce where I'm going to take my talents and circus / concert like introduction they had had to be the most self centered "hey look at me" thing I have ever seen. Have a press conference like the rest of the sporting world and I wouldn't have a problem with 3 big names on the same team. I really want to enjoy watching the big 3 because I'm sure it's going to go down in history as one of the best teams of all time but I can't stand people that full of themselves.

I personally don't pay any attention to the off court antics of the players, hype of the media and owners. It's all bullshit and big business. What matters is the amazing talents and physical abilities that some of these players possess.

As a Lakers fan the media would lead me to beleive that Kobe is the devil himself, but I don't care. He's one of the greatest players ever, someone who can truly be compared to Jordan (not surpass him of course).

I'd personally not rather get caught up in the off court nonsense that takes place because it takes away from the enjoyment of the game itself. I just rather enjoy the amazing talents that I've been able to witness over the years..Jordan, Johnson, Karreem, Bird, Kobe, Shaq, Wade, Lebron etc. Each and every superstar you can find off court fault with if you look, but who cares. They are ball players, not saints.

That's why Stern hates Pop and the Spurs, fundamental basketball is no fun to watch for most, regardless of how good they've been for 16 straight seasons

Durantula is probably my favorite player in the NBA right now.

Same here, he can't be guarded. He can shoot from anywhere on the floor, over any player or can drive to the hoop stronger than most. He's going to have a great career, maybe he can make his way to a team a little farther down 35!

He sure has, I'm not a fan of the Heat but how anyone can hate Lebron is beyond me. The guy is simply amazing on the court, there's nothing he can't do. It's only a matter of time before he passes Kobe in the record books, I think he'll be number 2 to Jordan.

I don't deny that Lebron is an incredible player. I just don't care for his antics. Shut up and play. He also lacks the killer/finisher instinct that Jordan and Kobe have.

He showed that off after that block on Splitter. It was a badass block, but then he just stood there reveling about it instead of joining his team down the court on offense.

That's how all basketball ball players are when they get a block like that. So it's just not James that does that. And by the way I think that is when Miller hit a 3 pointer after that so they really didn't need James down the court anyways.

Luke
06-11-2013, 03:05 PM
Some guys do some don't, they usually at least walk toward the other side, not that that's any better. The game doesn't take a timeout for a highlight reel! And I don't recall the play that followed but I just remember they were able to completely set up their offense and James was missing before they got a shot off. It wasn't in transition.

This. Why Jordan > all. Yeah, there were times when he had his "F YOU!" moments, but he didn't act like he just saved the world. And he didn't do it all the time. That is the reason he is respected by the entire sport, because he respected other as well.

There is some good Mexican food in California, but that "fresh-mex" stuff you can keep! I'm not sure about Dallas but in Ft. Worth there aren't a whole lot of really good Mexican food places. San Antonio on the other hand is one of my favorite places to go and gain 20 pounds.

Haha, "fresh mex" is awesome! Food should not taste like it came out of a can or a freezer. As a Californian, you get spoiled from all the fresh food, especially the fruit where oranges and strawberries grow everywhere.

Agreed on San Antonio. There are so many good places there it's hard to decide where to go on a short weekend trip when we take the kids to Sea World. lol
