NBA Regular Season Thread

[555666]

I like how this is a basketball thread, yet people insist on talking about a baseball and football team.

Chauncey finally checked back in.

I too could care less for bandwagoners, but I look at it this way:

They jump from team to team, but theres nothing like following a team through its down years and seeing them emerge as a contender. WHEN the Knicks become the Eastern conference powerhouse they were in the 90's again, it will be one of the greatest days in my life. All the jokes, wisecracks, controversey wont mean anything.

Anyone who is a bandwagon fan, wont get to experience that, thus they will never truly feel what it likes to be a true fan.

Let them do what they do, let the true fans of the Mavericks tell you, the ones who sat through the horrible years, same with the Pistons, same with the Suns. Theres nothing like it, I just cant wait till its the Knicks' turn.

BTW Im not inferring anyone here is a bandwagoner, just weighing in...

Lakers when Shaq got traded? Now that they're back to being a power-house it is ooooooh soooo good :]

Mavericks look like we're about to turn back into those teams of the 90's

Yeah you guys had a tough couple of years too. lol

 

[MapleLeaf]

OH SH!T

Diop just airballed a free throw

Now Chicago leads Dallas by 1 at the half.

Unbelievable, considering the start they had...

 

[elcheato]

Cavs win again... 6 game win streak, now 7-2, we really should be undefeated, we blew leads against the Celtics and the Hornets, but its in the past and we are on fire now.

Mo Williams led the team with 24 points, also had 6 assists. LeBron had 22 points, 11 assists, 8 rebounds, also Ben Wallace had 11 points, 3/3 from the FT line lol. Also Gibson finally broke out of his slump, went 7/11 from the field for 15 points

Martin getting tossed out was such bull.

 

[elcheato]

Martin getting tossed out was such bull.

Why? All he was doing was throwing elbows and you don't even know the words that came out of his mouth. I'm going to guess it was calling for an ejection after he was just taking out his anger by throwing his elbow.

 

[MapleLeaf]

2-6 Dallas Mavericks

Top 10 pick here we come???

 

[RipCity32]

It wasn't really an elbow on Varajao. He gave him a little push and Varajao made it look like he tossed him across the court. It was a foul for sure, shouldn't of threw him out though.

A little push? AV did make it look worse but it wasn't just a little push, he meant to do something, and it wasn't just to try and avoid the screen.

Anyway, didn't mean much anyway, the game was over.

Didnt rasheed call Varejao a flopper a year or 2 back lol.

 

[555666]

If the ref let it go on, maybe they'd have another incident like last night. I think it was a good call...

 

[MapleLeaf]

Just imagine a year with the Mavs and Spurs in the lottery

 

[RipCity32]

I think the whole league does lol.

 

[The Young One]

Vlade divac must've been his idol.

There arent many players I dislike in the NBA, but Varejao is one. His constant flopping urks me.

Much like Reggie Miller, I respect his game, b/c he does come to play every night. He plays hard but I just dont like him.
