Hoops Thread

[Coach]

Im diggin the Rockets, Blazers, and Memphis this year.

[steve]

nobody is beating the lakers, nobody.

dallas looks good, san antonio probably will be ok, blazers are gonna be on fire, and fuck the east.

i also predict shaq is going to blow his acl and this will be the last season lebron will be in cleveland.

[steve]

i've been waiting for this thread.

[Coach]

haha nice.

*sigh

I dont like the lakers one bit.

[steve]

[steve]

LAZY FUCKER.

[Coach]

yeah boston looks pretty much unstoppable. the mingless, mcgradyless rockets last year took the champs to seven games, so i figure the lakers can be picked apart. artest is the kicker though.

[elpizzysofresh]

i see teams adjusting the way they defend him (artest) not too hard to get under that fools skin and get him worked up and start acting a fool.

[Coach]

fuckin rockets are toooooooooooo small.

[elpizzysofresh]

yea, the chuckster said today during post-game the rockets were gonna have the worst season in the west

ron ron plays real ball when he acts a fool.



that's just good entertainment.

[steve]

he gets hot shooting the ball when you piss him off, just hope doesn't care about the team. i love the he shit does though. he'll pick a multiplayer fight and then break it up.

[DJ Cal Cutta]

If Ron gets his shot in rhythm this year, the Lakers will be deadly. Ron Artest could really thrive in the Triangle Offense, seeing as the whole idea of Ron in their offense is just to get him wide open looks(and look at it last night, they looked like they were playing completely half-ass and Ron *still* got wide open shots all night).

I was mighty impressed by Portland's 2nd unit last night. If Andre Miller and Rudy Fernandez can sync like that normally, this is gonna be a fun year...

And now commences my Blazers homerism for the season

[Coach]

chuck hayes is my favorite active player.

[steve]

mine is jason kidd.

[steve]

i have worshiped that guy since he played college ball.

[steve]

the worm is my favorite non active player. he probably still could hold down the boards better than most.

[Coach]

good ol rodman. i enjoyed watching kidd on the nets.

hakeem the dream .

[bAnGALoRE]

spurs hornets about to start. spurs only have like 12 games not televised in austin this season. lets go championship, why not.

[Coach]

i like new orleans this year as well. hell our conference is again the toughest in the league, all talent filled rosters. Okafor needs to stay healthy for N.O. though.

[steve]

THE FUCKING CAVS ARE DOWN 18 AT THE HALF TO THE RAPTORS.

[steve]

HAHAHAHAHA

[steve]

WITH BARGNANI PUTTING UP 21 ON SHUCK

[steve]

HAHAHAHAHA

DALLAS LOOKS GOOD? They got beat by the Wizards on opening night with Jameson leading all Washington scorers. FUCKING ANTAWN JAMESON BEAT DALLAS.

Oh, and Boston will beat the Lakers. Cleveland got handled at home by them last night. It's kind of a crap shoot this early but if everyone is healthy, Boston has a better bench than LA does IMO.

As for SA, well... its my team and I don't wanna be negative, but they need to make some moves if they want a shot at the title this year.

[steve]

i didn't see the dallas game, they always start slow anyway and dallas didn't have josh howard. don't get your panties in a wad paulie. i'll put you in your place. also according to the box score antawn jamison didn't play.

[Coach]

he didnt. he is injured. arenas can be a beast sometimes.

Our Conference is the illest im tellin you.
