I made a quadruple double with Dirk in NBA Live 2005 today
35 pts 13 rbs 10 ast 11 blk.
I also made a three with Ben Wallace.
Which is more likely to happen in real basketball ?
I loved that game.
Best Live in the previous Xbox-PS2 generation.

they haven't said he won't, so no news is good news?

Go Mavs, will be over while the ugly Blazers game is in halftime and when it's over
If LPBB doesn’t strike again
But slowly things happen that they cannot help and the Blazers Fellowship of the Ring begins to break apart
Pretty sloppy quarter.
Careless turnovers (Rockets have been pressing, but still), Rockets have shot really well but they’ve been getting them a little easier than they should.
Drew Gooden just sucks.
Remember to retire Fin's number, Mark.
Zach Randolph accidentally banged heads with Hasheem Thabeet and broke his jaw. Grizzlies can't catch a break.
But slowly things happen that they cannot help and the Blazers Fellowship of the Ring begins to break apart
Thabeet needs to put on about 40 pounds

At the moment sadly it looks like he is 2 years away from being the next Diop
Mutombo is far far on the horizon.

he's already broken my heart
by dominating A&M in the tourney last year.

Rick is clearly made for a team like this
But these are Morey’s guys, 100%.
www.TheDreamShake.com Co-Founder and Writer
Daryl Morey hired Rick Adelman
Cleveland could have had him if they wanted. Instead they’ve stuck with the awful Mike Brown.
blablabla *gives another verbal handie* (sorry, crowd mentality)

Chuck Hayes? Rick Adelman?
That team has too many glue guys and no stars at the moment, but those glue guys are pretty good.
But slowly things happen that they cannot help and the Blazers Fellowship of the Ring begins to break apart
jesus. this game is a clusterfuck. no defense whatsoever.
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
Can we trade Gooden for Kurt Thomas please?
Throw in the other Thomas if necessary
But slowly things happen that they cannot help and the Blazers Fellowship of the Ring begins to break apart
no way.
I simply HAVE to see Tim Thomas and Dirk playing together.

Never underestimate anyone in the league
Unless it’s Drew Gooden. Leave him open for a jumper and he’ll clang it off the front rim.
Remember to retire Fin's number, Mark.
hey don't say that
he might travel, too.
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
one of those guys better be MC

mavs basketball. i say we should get another story on how today was the first day for all-star voting.
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
nothing to pay attention to here. they don't wanna play defense in the lane. leaves everyone open.
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
The Mavs have been perfectly fine on the offensive end.
Turned the ball over some, and Gooden’s been a complete braindead, but they’ve gotten their looks.
Just can’t stop Brooks.
Remember to retire Fin's number, Mark.
fuck you josh howard. now is not the time for you to take a jumper in transition.
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*

lol. damp with the post move.
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
oh yeah. you don't expect it. but damp saw whitey guarding him.
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
Giant clusterfuck play.
I would’ve flipped if Josh missed that.
Remember to retire Fin's number, Mark.
Some shooting forms are like that.
Every time I see Marcus Camby shoot, I imagine an airball.
Remember to retire Fin's number, Mark.
now that's a funny shooting form
How could you possibly not at least challenge that? It takes him like 7 seconds to shoot.

It is milk it may be spilled it may be delicious.
can we get a goddamn defensive rebound? landry and hayes are both 6-8ish. we have taller guys than that, ya?

always like that. kidd to damp.

yeah, going to his left. he's tough.

i'm not a fan of the +/- system in basketball. seems too simple. but yeah, gooden sucks.
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
It helps to see which units are working well together, and who plays defense. Thus it helps to add to stats like PER.
Over longer time frames, not 1 game. After all, if you win or lose is a +/-.
But slowly things happen that they cannot help and the Blazers Fellowship of the Ring begins to break apart
i can see the PER making sense, but i mean +/- depends on a lot of things like who is on the floor with you, and what unit you're facing. idk.
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
Gooden just doesn't belong with us
If Carlisle played Hump over him, maybe we wouldn’t have been down as big as 17.
seniority rules, I guess
Screw that, Gooden just sucks. I don’t care how good he can shake and bake sometimes, he just doesn’t belong.
hello
craziest week of work ever… not able to watch the game… i see we are down 4 after a friend of mine texted me that the mavs sucked….
marc stein tweeted that maybe roddy will get a shot at brooks in the 2nd..
go mavs, go colts, go rangers, go baylor
He's just not fast enough...hopefully Roddy is.
And Roddy is taller, maybe he can create something on the offensive side.
So I heard the 1st half sucked.
Good thing I wasn’t here to see it, come on Mavs wtf. According to my sources inside the locker room, lets keep the momentum going.
what?! you wasn't watchin?! dancin with the stars gotcha, big guy?
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
busted! i watch dancing with the stars in between commercial breaks.
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
only you would put those two together. classic bruce.
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
Aaron Brooks
much like Steve Martin’s character in Sergeant Bilko is hard to stop. Stopping him is like nailing Jell-O to the wall. Speaking of which, I had a chocolate-vanilla swirl Jell-O pudding pop at halftime. Delicious! Come on Mavs, keep up the momentum you obtained in the second quarter!
Brad James
That sounds like an auto-generated message.
But awesome post, nevertheless.

BWAHAHAHA damp with the breakaway dunk!
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
Who keeps telling Josh to stop shooting?
please keep it up…and Josh, please keep ignoring.
"Hang-Dai, Wu...Hang-Fu$&ing-Dai"
That's the easy answer.
I want something complicated like the real dampier fell in the shower trying to sing a high note. An alien that for some reason chose to follow him sees this and creates a doppleganger.
ahhhh doppleganger!!! *punches hollogram*
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
well consider this also
he’s NEVER had much of a post threat alongside him. when you can focus your defense on Dirk, Jet and put double teams on Damp down low when he gets the ball it makes it pretty tough.
With Marion here, he’s getting some easier looks.

Double Double Dampier
Whataburgers in Dallas should make a special limited edition burger in his honor: double patty, double cheese, and buns so greasy the they will slip off your hands
bullshit barea. you gotta sell that.
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
Just thinking...
if Roddy does get into the Arlington All-Star SDC like Cuban said he’d try to do, he should do the “alley-oop pass from Tony Romo” thing that Gerald wanted to do.
Remember to retire Fin's number, Mark.
great third quarter. +15 so far.
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
a bunch of losers, marie. that's always the answer to your question.

I'm sure he was fun at one point.
But once you join the spares, your personality gets sucked out of you.
Awesome Mavs
finish defusing the Rockets. Show my Denver Broncos how to finish in the 4th Quarter!
Brad James
Thanks, all of you
I’m not keeping up with the schedule as much as I used to…I need a print out or a magnet or something.
Okay, Billups misses the 2nd FT on purpose since there was only 0.6 left
But the Bulls call a timeout. The play was Kirk inbounding the ball to Miller who shoots right in front of the 3 pt. line.
They're trying to decide if Miller's shot left his hand in time or not
That was awesome, that final play
Brad Miller might have hit the shot as the clock expired after 0.3 timeout
But slowly things happen that they cannot help and the Blazers Fellowship of the Ring begins to break apart
After Noah got a rebound with 0.6. Pretty incredible.
But slowly things happen that they cannot help and the Blazers Fellowship of the Ring begins to break apart
fuck those guys. i remember how obnoxious they were coming over here during that series.
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
League might have to review it. Incredibly close.
Also, I didn’t know you can take a timeout before the fact, as Chicago did when Hinrich missed the FT for the Noah rebound.
But slowly things happen that they cannot help and the Blazers Fellowship of the Ring begins to break apart
bwahahahaha. the rockets gm is a genius!
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
It was very very close. I fear they are right, but the league might review it again.
Even taking the timeout with 0.6 → 0.3 is nearly impossible.
But slowly things happen that they cannot help and the Blazers Fellowship of the Ring begins to break apart
Blazers win. Now the Mavs need to win too, please.
But slowly things happen that they cannot help and the Blazers Fellowship of the Ring begins to break apart
Carl Landry's verbal flop is rivalling Pau's.
I remember someone here last season who made that quip about nobody in Houston being able to create their own shot, apart from the guy who shot Carl Landry.

Wow, I didn't know the Rockets would get this cold.
They were going to slow down, but still…
Remember to retire Fin's number, Mark.
Damp > Shaq, lol
But slowly things happen that they cannot help and the Blazers Fellowship of the Ring begins to break apart
now i'm really pissed about gooden.
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
the question now is:
will any team be dumb enough to give dampier a long contract? something bigger than a 10 day contract
Mavs need to watch Damp's minutes a bit. If he plays too much, his last year becomes guaranteed :)
But slowly things happen that they cannot help and the Blazers Fellowship of the Ring begins to break apart
if he plays 2500+ minutes (I believe)
his final year will be guaranteed. Will never happen, though. (right?)
2100
But slowly things happen that they cannot help and the Blazers Fellowship of the Ring begins to break apart
ah roddy should've just let the time go.
Cause I cut the brakes! Wildcard bitches! Yeeehaaawww! *jumps out of van*
Still not big on the way this team starts
But man, when they get on, that offense is just unstoppable.
Great win.
Remember to retire Fin's number, Mark.
Marvelous
performance, Mavericks! This is how you get it done. Dampier was outstanding, Jet found his shot and Dirk was Dirk. Look out Western Conference, these Mavs are deep and already tougher than Showbe and the Fakers. War the WCF going through the Metroplex! We’ll catch you guys later!
Brad James
G'night folks
If we’ve learned anything tonight it’s that we need more Hump minutes. First place by ourselves of the division tonight, btw. See ya tomorrow night.
Agreed.
I’m from Toronto and I’m lovin’ the fact I can rub the fact we’ve got Hump in their faces. Then again, they cheer for the Raptors so maybe I should just have mercy….nah.
Gah
On Australian TV they’re all “Rockets broadcasting” now that David Anderson plays for them. Same for Bogut, I guess.
Remember to retire Fin's number, Mark.
this may end up being a VERY good year...
