Non-Mavs Playoffs

by BrodyV on Apr 22, 2007 2:56 PM CDT

Ok, who else is declaring the day wasted for anything other than NBA playoffs? What's your thoughts about what's going on?

So far I've seen a Wiz team that has no chance due to injuries, which is disappointing because healthy they'd give the Cavs all sorts of fits.

And I've seen Shawn Marion basically crawl into Ronny Turiaf's jersey from behind, and not get called for a foul. Turiaf has done a good job on Amare so far though.

And Raja is a flopper.

Kobe Bryant

Is sick.

I hate him. But damn.

I was going for the Raptors, the Bulls, the Magic, and the Rockets..two out of four won, so not bad. I skipped today's first game since I had a feeling it'd be boring/a blowout (I ended up watching "Hot Fuzz" instead) and now I'm watching Lakers/Suns. Kobe's on fire today.

Oh, and Kwame Brown sucks

And I don't like these commentators. I can't wait for the TNT coverage.

Hubie Brown

Needs to be given a Lear Jet during the playoffs. He could do the first and last game both days. I don't think anyone would object.

by BrodyV on Apr 22, 2007 3:41 PM CDT up reply actions

Yeah, I love Hubie

I hope TNT steals him away. I hated listening to Jon Barry last night...usually he's tolerable.

Barbosa vs. Devin Harris in a race

Who would win? Both are so friggin' fast. Maybe Tony Parker can contend too.

by Marie on Apr 22, 2007 4:00 PM CDT reply actions

I think Barbosa

but I'd love to see it.

by Wes Cox on Apr 22, 2007 4:13 PM CDT up reply actions

They should do it

For next year's All Star festivities and the money can go to charity.

by Marie on Apr 22, 2007 4:20 PM CDT up reply actions

Ok

I knew that some of the GSW fans weren't the brightest bulb in the box, but some of what they're saying is absolutley insane.

Like this and this.

by BrodyV on Apr 22, 2007 4:29 PM CDT reply actions

yeah man

and your hella cocky w/ your team look what just happened tonight son. don't be disrespectin our fans or our team and don't get comfortable cuz we might just take the series

by Mike Dirkleavy on Apr 23, 2007 12:22 AM CDT up reply actions

your versus you're

You're is a contraction. It's used in place of the phrase "You are."

Your is possessive. That's your coffee mug.

Please become familiar with these differences. Chicks dig them.

And I'm not cocky- this is going to be a hell of a series, and I never expected anything else. Of course, I'm not the one predicting a sweep of the finals, coming out of the 8 spot.

What is it with the GSW fans and calling people "son?" Is there some weird Cali incest thing I need to know about?

by BrodyV on Apr 23, 2007 12:26 AM CDT up reply actions

God damn

I pop off, then re-read the sentence, and just look like a moron.

The lesson, as always...

Still. Lay off the family terms till you win a playoff series.

Oh, nevermind

You managed to get it right once, but not the first time. I was right after all. You just got lucky once...

your hella stupid fool

stop with these damn spelling lessons man its only the internet. im not turnin this ish in to no teacher man. stop bein such a loser

by Mike Dirkleavy on Apr 23, 2007 12:38 AM CDT up reply actions

im not turnin this ish in to no teacher man.

WTF?

by BrodyV on Apr 23, 2007 12:41 AM CDT up reply actions

omg

the grammer and spelling doesnt have to be perfect dood. im not turning this in to a teacher. what don't you get about that. we're just talking on the internet and when i totally own you and hit you up with some basketball knowledge you resort to correcting my spelling cuz you got nothing to say. your a loser. if you want to talk basketball then talk to me. if you wanna correct my grammer and spelling then i aint gonna talk to you anymore your annoying

by Mike Dirkleavy on Apr 23, 2007 12:43 AM CDT up reply actions

Basketball knowledge?

No really, pull the other one...

What do you have to say? I haven't really seen anything from you, other than "OMG we rRUlezorS!!!111!"

What do you want me to say? The Mavs shot 35%. You don't win a playoff game shooting 35% on the night if it's against the Warriors, the Detroit Shock, or Paducah Consolidated High School.

BTW

"You're hella stupid, fool."

As written, you don't have a verb. However, "are" in the contraction form of "you are" is a be verb, and therefore passive voice. Writing in the active voice makes your sentences more effective. For example "I think your comment is hella stupid." By making the verb of the sentence "think," it more accurately indicates your disagreement.

You also need a comma before fool.

wow

you really are a fag

by Mike Dirkleavy on Apr 23, 2007 12:47 AM CDT up reply actions

I'll be sure

to give my wife your learned assessment.

by BrodyV on Apr 23, 2007 12:48 AM CDT up reply actions

Haha

That's a hilarious reply, brodyv. Not to harp, since I don't want to add to this argument any more, but I don't see how people can't take the time to write with the correct spelling in blogs/message boards/e-mails, etc. I know you're not turning it in for credit, but at least show that you learned something in high school, especially since the general public is reading your thoughts. Or maybe I'm just a grammar/spelling geek, whatever.

At any rate, just to get back on topic here...go Magic!

I hate how...

Tonight's game is a late start, even for you guys in Central time, while this Phoenix game was at noon their time. It's all about the network ratings, I suppose.

I remember that commercial very well.

They are all still on NBA.com here

by Wes Cox on Apr 22, 2007 6:58 PM CDT up reply actions

I haven't seen that ad in forever

They need to make commercials like that again. I like Dirk's fantasy basketball, where the guy tells him that he needs more blocks, so he proceeds to loft easy balls at Dirk to block, and they're in an office so the ball keeps hitting cubicles/people/coffee mugs.

by Marie on Apr 22, 2007 7:14 PM CDT up reply actions

Oops

Fantasy basketball ad, I mean.

by Marie on Apr 22, 2007 7:15 PM CDT up reply actions

Yeah, that's a good one.

And I've only seen it once.

by Wes Cox on Apr 22, 2007 7:43 PM CDT up reply actions

too bad

dirk ain't gettin' it this year, even if he gets past the first round

by Mike Dirkleavy on Apr 26, 2007 12:19 AM CDT up reply actions

the warriors were

in a very similar situation as the wizards are right now. you see the wizards are just useless with out gilbert and caron. well we went through long stretches without JRICH and Baron, plus we needed time to gel with our new guys from the trade so basically that is why we are a much better team then our record indicates
