Yeah, basically.  And for some reason people would rather watch spring training than hockey.  I can't say that I quite understand it.

Definitely it's beyond me. I also don't get how one or two of my friends are able to follow the 50+ round MLB draft.
Anyways, back to the NBA - watch this sick Rondo no look pass for the alley oop.

Just curious, but how did a lockout help the NHL? I really can't see much of a way the lockout helps the NBA, except by possibly limiting huge salaries so that smaller market teams can be more competitive or restricting a "big 3" like Miami from happening again. Still, that's all offset by losing a season and upsetting the fan base.

I definitely don't want to see super teams in the NBA, because that'll just lead to isolation 1v1 play which is boring to watch. It was refreshing to see a real team like the Mavs with role players win the title. Imo, basketball needs role players, so if there are only 8 or less teams it could be less fun to watch actually.

They both need to stop being greedy and look at the consequences if they lose a season, they'll all look bad.

I don't think the lockout will hurt unless they start missing games. The NFL came out OK from their lockout, but imo only because they are playing all their games.

I'd also say the product has been pretty good recently, just a little heavy on isolation play. However, the Mavs did just win a title as a team over the 1v1 style of the Heat which was nice to see.

Jokes aside, this lockout really sucks, not just for the players and the fans. 

I agree that it seems the NFL is more popular than basketball in the US. Whenever I turn on the tele to watch an NFL game, the stadiums look bigger yet packed.

The NFL fanbase has always been bigger than the NBA, it's just the way it's set up. 1 big gameday on the weekends with plenty of down time to drink beers just makes it fan-friendly.

The NBA lockout talk has been really quiet though, I did read a story on Yahoo about the 2 sides being closer than you would think with this amount of press, but that's it. And why wouldn't they want people to know that they're getting closer?

150+ points?  well now i know theyre not playing for reals or its not competitive.  i mean where is the defense!?

Thats the point, theres never defense in these games. Think of it as another all star game. Durant himself racked up like close to 60 points.

I've seen ads for a trampoline gym area they have in the Bay Area that looks similar but they have no hoops, and you can't even do flips into a foam pit they have next to the trampolines. They do play dodgeball but that doesn't seem like it'd be as fun as dunking.

Wow I miss Slamball. I wanted to play that so badly. The premise was awesome it just wasn't marketed right and the way it was setup didn't maximize the potential.


I think the horrific injuries and probably the lawsuits stemming from them was the real downfall of the amazing sport of slamball.

I kind of hope their isn't one.  Basketball is pretty boring to watch unless it's the playoffs.  Maybe a new sport will take it's place like hockey or soccerLOL

I think most of the all-stars in bball would be in a much worse place in life if not for the pros.  Let's just say most do not seem to have taken full advantage of their free college experiences.

I saw the clip, pretty bad. I saw some chairs being thrown, some stomping and at one point looked like a full out ground and pound. The Chinese players just outnumber the gt players. 

Another reason why nba is a little better than overseas, security.

i guess their life styl can also be accounted for since they're use to spending... but then again.. with the lockout.. they still get $0... and i even heard boguat won't play for australia because he's afraid he might get injured and he won't be insured (therefore no pay).. so stupid.. dunoz how much truth that holds.. just something i hread..

Little progress? more like none. I won't be expecting them to get their act together any time soon too.

Even the thin guys you pointed out all weighed over 250lbs. That's a lot for a human skeleton to handle when you're running and jumping and getting pushed around by other very big men. If your body isn't genetically built to handle that abuse, which most bodies aren't, there's going to be injuries just because they're just so big. Long careers for centers would be the exception, not the rule.

Who are the big ripped centers in the NBA other than Dwight Howard?  Most of the guys that are heavy have been that way since they were about 10 years old, like K-Perk, Marc Gasol, Al Jefferson, Greg Oden.  There still appear to be a fair amount of tall, skinny centers, the game has just changed.  It's a guard's game.

Yeah I don't think it has anything to do with being ripped. Look at Yao...he's not going to be on the cover of any weight lifting magazine and he unfortunately had to retire. 
Also, Artest and Lebron are huge guys...I believe Lebron is heavier than Dwight (unofficially though...the listed weights are misconceiving) but there's no recurrent foot problems on his part.

Interesting thought, but I disagree, just look at Shaq O'Neal, He is big and carries tons of weight, yet he dominated the league over a decade. He is one of the best center in the NBA History. ]]> Sat, 13 Aug 2011 13:47:31 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1071194#1071194 NBA 2010/2011 Season : the reason big guys aren't... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1071178#1071178 Author: timpiper

Doesn't matter.  Bynum can't stay in the lineup.  It's like saying that the Blazers win with Greg Oden in the lineup.


Not sure you can take it quite that far.  Oden hasn't even made it to a playoff game.

what do you mean "he's become a cocky bitch"??? Since DAY 1, lebron has been the cockiest mofo.
like he really gives a shit how much people hate him, lol...

the heat made it to the finals without much of a bench and they got beat by one hell of a TEAM that had great production off the bench. so I'm thinking, they add a few more solid role players and they're good to go.

Agreed, dude got the chosen 1 tattooed on his back. The thing is, with most athletes they have been spoiled since they are young due to their talents, free education at college, probably favoritism by the teachers and etc.

Miami obviously got talent to win it all, but yes they need better role players but there probably wont be a season this year so doesn't matter.

what do you mean "he's become a cocky bitch"??? Since DAY 1, lebron has been the cockiest mofo.
like he really gives a shit how much people hate him, lol...

the heat made it to the finals without much of a bench and they got beat by one hell of a TEAM that had great production off the bench. so I'm thinking, they add a few more solid role players and they're good to go.

Wow, NBA files its own suit against the players for unfair labor practices.  That was a twist that I don't think anyone saw coming.  

From a public perception standpoint, that really puts the onus back on the players.  Both sides have been complaining that the other hasn't been negotiating in good faith.  However its rare for the ownership group to take the step of filing a suit over it.  I'm very curious to see how this plays out now.  This also significantly dims my hopes of a regular season starting on time.

True, but still I think D.Howard is all talk for now, like how he said he was going to stick around with the Magics but than he said he'll opt for FA if his team doesn't win next year, and we all know orlando won't win it.

That is correct, its noted that D.Will and probably all other players will have that clause in their contract. Players that are leaving for Euro is just for a short duration, NBA is where its at for sure.

I don't think anybody is "leaving" the league. The players have contracts where they would have to come back to the NBA once there is a CBA. Even if their contracts expire before the CBA is done, elite players are going to want to play in the NBA because that's where the best players play, and where the real money/status is. Saying you're the best in the China league isn't the same as saying you're the best in the NBA.

I don't get risking an injury to play in Turkey of all places. You can get plenty of run playing in summer Pro-Am leagues in the States, but I guess you could get injured there too.

It could help with name recognition but he doesn't do any commercials or anything now anyways. I guess this could be his one chance to try out playing in Europe, just weird really to me, seems like it'd be a leverage thing over the Nets somehow.

I agree with some of your points. For example, the injury thing, D. Will said the same thing, he said he could get injured anywhere so why not play at Turkey (theres money, also a change of scenery).

He engineered his own special on ESPN, how is nobody supposed to watch that? At the very least it would have gotten talked about for a week straight just because nobody else has ever done that.

The way he came off just made him look like a ego queen. Don't get me wrong, he had the "right" to leave cleveland, no reason for him to stay but he didn't need to put on a whole show or anything like that. Same with Bosh, if you are planning to go, just do so,

He engineered his own special on ESPN, how is nobody supposed to watch that? At the very least it would have gotten talked about for a week straight just because nobody else has ever done that. The funny thing was he did the special for charity, then came off looking like a bad guy heh, guess that's karma.

The problem starts in the front office, they have no idea how to put together a basketball team. Then it's the coaching, which has been terrible for the past 5 years with McHale and Rambis and whoever else. They actually have some decent pieces, but together there's no organization or goal, until that happens they'll be bad.

And they drafted 3 PGs in one draft, that about sums it up. Oh and they traded the best one of the three away on draft night.

I don't see how Rubio will turn out well in the NBA unless he improves dramatically. He doesn't even play well in Europe where it's much less competitive than the NBA. If he just plays equally well with similar stats, he'll just be a regular journeyman at best. But, chances are that he will not play as well given the better competition in the NBA.

I'm really interested in how he plays as well. He played decently against the US team in the Olympics last time but he's been pretty terrible in Europe, shooting like 30%, he's gonna see some Rondo-style defense on him for sure.

It was definitely China that ended his career early, they rode him to death when he was younger and then coming back too early to play for the home country in the Olympics was the straw that broke his feet. Sad too, because he had amazing touch for somebody as big as he was, he shot 80%+ on free throws at 7'6".

For sure, he had a huge cultural impact to the game. I remember going to a raptors/rockets game couple years ago, and all you see are chinese fans cheering for Yao instead of the raptors.

Its not a monthly contract, its because they have a clause stating if and when NBA restarts, the player is allow to go back to play for the NBA

I'm not sure if "a lot" of players will go, there isn't a whole lot of money in Euro anyways, maybe China. Not a bad deal for some players though especially the young guys so they can continue to develop their game. Ex. Sonny Weems from the raptors got a deal to play at Lithuanian

Easier said than done, we are talking about big bucks here.

On another note, Yao Ming is supposedly retiring. He had pretty solid numbers, too sad his career is done due to injuries. Did a lot for the sport, bringing the asian community into the game.

One of the interesting things I've heard about the lockout is the possibility of teams being able to dump a terrible contract with little hit to their salary cap number. That could really help some teams out.

The NBA is so bad at managing long-term contracts, looking at the highest paid players you'll find like a third of them are terrible, Rashard Lewis/Baron Davis/Arenas/Turkolu etc. I mean Lewis is the 2nd highest paid player in the league, that's ridiculous.

In theory it should.  Past labor agreements have grandfathered all contracts into the new deal.  This one could be different as the owners are asking for rollbacks, but I would imagine if you were supposed to be a free agent, you still will be.

The players are not paid during a lockout, its a work stoppage.

Both owners and players just want to make more money. For the players, majority of them came from nothing and are now making millions, of course they dont want to give that up. Owners want more overall nba revenue, more profit or just to break even.

Let's not forget about the owners.  They are just as greedy.  In the case of the NFL, they seem to be even worse.

Which sport are you referring to? because base on the current nba contracts, the players make more (i believe 57%) than owners for overall nba revenue. Plus if you are a owner, your basically running a business, of course you want to make profit

Everyone wants to make a profit, and they aren't basically running a business.  They are running a very large, profitable business (unless they have a terrible team).  If you are trying to imply that NBA owners aren't greedy, then I'm not sure what to tell you.  None of them are living paycheck to paycheck.  Trust me on that.

I'm not saying the owners themselves aren't greedy, of course they are because they would like to make as much profit as possible, anyone would if they are running any sort of business. I'm just saying I think the players are too greedy and overpaid.

It's partially the owners' fault for paying those ridiculous salaries in the first place. There's a huge amount of money at stake so people are all fighting for their share. What is stupid is that by arguing and losing a season they're all going to lose that money because the fans just want to see the games.

yeah, i thought that was a steal for sacramento. hickson can get double doubles on a regular basis. casspi is a bench player at best and draft picks are always a gamble.

Ouch.  That's just hurtful.  I really don't think he was a bad pick at #10 in this year's draft.  He's a talented basketball player, but his game doesn't really seem like it will translate to the NBA level.  He also has a stupid name.

Buddy, Adam won 2 rings. LOL

Personally, as of right now i can't imagine him being a solid starting pg. If he was on another team with a solid coaching staff and let him develop than maybe.

No way, but the bad similarity they share is that they both hit a lot of tough contested shots in college, that kind of thing usually disappears in the NBA. I think Jimmer will be decent, probably not a star.

Possibly the single most over-rated lottery pick in this years draft.  Will probably have an Eddie House career.  Basically the same player.  If he had come out in a year where there was more talent, we wouldn't even know who he was.  I forget the exact quote, but whan asked about him, even David Aldridge said he was going to suck.

Mavs strengthened a weak spot on the bench by trading their picks for SG/SF Rudy Fernandez. If they can resign JJ Barea, Tyson Chandler, and Caron Butler..Fernandez will serve as the backup SF.
 
Dallas' new lineup would be:
PG: Jason Kidd, JJ Barea, Dominique Jones
SG: Caron Butler, Jason Terry, Roddy Beaubois
SF: Shawn Marion, Rudy Fernandez, Cory Brewer
PF: Dirk, Ian Mahini, Brian Cardinal
C: Tyson Chandler, Brandon Haywood
 
Looks like they may be contending for a repeat...

Weak draft for sure, don't see any of them making a difference. With regards to the raptors and the #5 draft, i'll be happy with a new pg, knight/walker. 

Also Oden is a bust, way too injury prone especially for big guys.

^^^^ It's not the best draft, but its not the worst either. Kemba Walker is a pretty good player, just needs some development. Most of the drafts have been pretty thin since Wade and Bron's draft years in my opinion. Less hype since then as well... so it might have just been the buildup for that year haha. 

Speaking of drafts, I wonder if Oden will ever really play;  considering he's a #1 draft pick that has barely played in the 3-4 years he's been in the NBA. Constant injuries... I'm still waiting to see if he will shine or not LOL.

RedLego is totally right. Carter hasn't played with heart since the days of the Raptors. He had flashes of brilliance with the Nets, but it was all downhill after the Raptors. He kind of just gave up after awhile and just started chucking up 3's. I used to love VC, but the way he threw away his talent was just depressing to watch. 

The 5 guys on Miami thing will never happen. All of them would have to take such deep cuts to their pay, they wouldn't do that until the tail end of their career. They are still in their prime so they want to make as much money as possible before that golden goose is up. I'd rather make the dough then kiss the the ring. I would go for the ring once i knew I was on the decline. That's just basic economics at its best. It's what the 3 on Boston did. The 3 on Miami now, just wanted to take the shortcut and assuage their egos. They'll be wanting to take higher pay again as soon as they get a ring.

Well first off, VC stop dunking since his raptors days, secondly i believe phx bought out his contract anyways so you don't have to see him again. Dude has talent but no heart.

^ Also, do you really think 5 guys are willing to take a pay cut? Plus even if you can sign all 5 guys into miami, la, dallas, etc they will be lacking depth/bench. Also talk about ruining the game.

or in Dallas:
pg: CP3 (replace aging Kidd)

or in LALA:
pg: CP3 (replace old Fisher)

all of these elite teams need a pg and center. if CP3 and Howard go to the same team, the'll make these teams unstoppable.

CP3 will be a free-agent after this season, it will be interesting where he ends up.

Howard needs to leave the Magic, their roster is full of bloated contracts to washed-up players. Wherever he and CP3 go will shape the NBA for a while, Deron Williams is also going to be a FA after this season, I say Howard tries to sign with one of them, could you imagine CP3 to Howard lob passes??

Dunno why Bibby even got any run in the playoffs, he was historically bad.

Spurs need to shake things up like the Lakers do, they just can't win with their rosters right now.

That's actually a sick deal for the Lakers. They could draft Williams at SF with the second pick and slowly get him integrated into the team (since Artest is already there). Then next year, sign Dwight and trade Bynum (plz!).

Possible Lakers team in 2 years:
PG - Fisher/free agent TBD
SG - Bryant
SF - Artest/Williams
PF - Love
C - Howard

Love and Howard are beasts on the board and the interior D would so set.

I doubt this would happen though...

Truth. I'd say Gasol is the second most skilled big man, the way he keeps the ball high at all times is text-book and very impressive. Dirk's shooting puts him in another class though.

I'd take Love + 2nd pick for Gasol though. Love's younger and has 3pt range, plus he can't be softer than Gasol, it's not possible with how well he rebounds. 2nd pick would probably mean Derrick Williams too. If he could play small forward for them that's some athleticism that they could desperately use.

I agree, if I have a choice I would take gasol over bynum any day. I think gasol is more gifted than bynum and that bynum is just pure height.

Not sure about the kobe & gasol relationship thing though, it was only a rumor that kobes wife got involved.

im sure he was trying to be funny when he said that.

as for "who the f does he think he is?"...

4 championships (3 peat + 3 time finals mvp)
#5 on the NBA's all time scoring list.
He is one of only three players to win NBA MVP, All-Star game MVP and Finals MVP awards in the same year.
he was the face of the NBA for over a decade and one of the greatest ambassadors in the history of the sport.

So since the Lakers and Heat do not have no 1st round pick, they can give a team 3 million dollars just for their pick.  They say that the both the Mavs and Bulls are two teams that could possibly be coaxed for their picks since one has a championship and the other team is super young.]]> Mon, 20 Jun 2011 16:45:53 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1052522#1052522 NBA 2010/2011 Season : Originally posted by tanglesI... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1052501#1052501 Author: broys

My point was more building a team around that core, not just Bynum. If he plays a whole season he's instantly a top-5 center in the league, I'll take that with his injury risk, but I would do a Bynum-Howard deal in an instant. Buss Jr. claims Bynum as his discovery which is why he won't part with him for anything, which is idiotic. The Lakers definitely need a trade to have any kind of playoff success next year.

i think the biggest issue on the lakers is ego...jackson was an excellent coach in that regard, in that he was able to manage that shit and will probably enter the coaching hall of fame soon. while he DID take on a  team of talented individuals, he was able to make their talents compliment each other and take a few wins

They have a chance but I doubt it will happen, it seemed to be a bit of the perfect storm with their spacing, shooting and 4th quarter production. I don't see how they don't resign Chandler and Barea, Cuban has never been scared of spending money. The X-factors for them will be Butler coming back and if Beaubois can come in and replace some of the production they'll lose with Kidd/JET/Dirk getting another year older.

I wish, at best maybe we can land the 8th seed but even that is somewhat hard to imagine. I hope we get a good draft pick, seems like we are aiming for a pg, Knight or Kemba. 

We also need to hire a coach first, was never a fan of Triano but than again he didn't really have a lot to work with.

^ I don't know about that comment. As much as i dislike them, i can't imagine them not winning at least 1 title. James/Wade top 5 players, Bosh is at least top 15 or 20 player. Their main weakness is their bench or the lack of bench. If they can get a better supporting cast and give them some time they should be able to win it.

Also I agree with Broys, shouldn't use boston as the measuring stick.

Miami is a failure, it doesn't matter that it's "year 1".  KG, Allen, and Pierce won it in "year 1", that is the measuring stick...


Disagree, Boston was a team of veterans who joined up to win a title and happen to compliment each other perfectly. There wasn't as much of a need to mesh because they didn't really over-lap, Allen's the shooter, Pierce is the scorer, KG is the defensive leader. They also had a better bench than the Heat.

I think the Heat will be very good next year, after having had a whole season and off-season to play with each other. But they do need to pick-up some better bench players. What happened to James Jones in the Finals? DNP the whole series?

Forgot about Wade, somehow he has become somewhat under-rated in all this.


I'd say it would go Kobe, then Wade for most comparable to Jordan, and that's about it. They're both scorers and competitive/fearless players.  Kobe has something close to Jordan's drive to win, but he lets himself get distracted with petty motives more than Jordan ever did. Wade doesn't seem to have as much of a killer instinct, and doesn't play as good of defense as Jordan or even Kobe, but he can take over a ballgame.

LeBron imo gets compared to Jordan because he quite obviously has the ability to transcend the game, he averages 28/8/8 and it's commonplace, nobody else can do that. He's a freak athlete that also can see the floor and dribble well, he should be unstoppable. Like I said before, it's his mental make-up that's the difference, he's been brought up as "The King" so he lacks the drive to dominate everybody, all the time.

He should still get some rings, he's too good. It'd be a huge disappointment if he never does, but I could see if he doesn't get one soon the pressure from everybody expecting him to win one getting to him.


lets just say noone is comparable to jordan, how bout that... definitely not kobe or wade

^^^ have always loved D-Wade, even when I initially think his attitude is unjustified I remember he earned it.  I was in law school at Cincinnati when they were "rivals" with Marquette in C-USA, and all UC basketball fans knew D-Wade's name the year before he played because he was just killing the rest of the team in practice (but he couldn't play because -- i think -- he was an academic partial qualifier).  The one year he played was spectacular
 
"fall down six times, get up seven"
 
bron will get his rings, he's the best speed-power combination that has ever lived, and has an uncanny jedi-sense to perceive what's about to happen.  I just wish it would have happened in Cleveland but maybe we'd rather have the pain.

i prefer we sweep him under a rug and pay no attention to him :D
good or bad attention, he deserves neither...
just like he deserves no fan base.

ON ANOTHER NOTE, i agree with one of the previous posts that he does deserve a ring at some point. that kind of skill shouldn't go unrewarded..................just not in the next 7 years.

It just seemed really peculiar to me that Lebron would resort to passing more in the 4th quarter (last 3 games) rather than shoot more. He's the only one in the "Big 3" that didn't cry on his way to the locker room...

Did you see his tweet?

The Greater Man upstairs being Mark Cuban perhaps??? Paying him crazy money to not shoot more than twice in the 4th???

[QUOTE=barnyard]I've never been a lebron fan,  but I still think he's due for 2-3 titles over his career easy.[/QUOTE

I think once he matures then he will get some. Until that day he will definitely be just another chump. He's got to work on that attitude too as it does nothing for his image. People will not like him, like they used to until he changes. He's been too busy trying to rush things and was too busy being a spoiled brat, instead of working on basketball. Once his quick game is gone, he's going to be irrelevant in my opinion. His mid and long ball are terrible atm. if he doesn't work on that, i think he will be just another flash of greatness, never reaching full potential.

Just totally different players.  LeBron is definitely more like Pippen/Magic.  He does happen to have superhuman athleticism though and in today's media craze he gets the headlines.  His personality feeds into it.  It is what it is, the closest in the game to Jordan is Kobe as far as I'm concerned and that is a distant comparison IMHO.  Durant would probably be third except he isn't quite the same makeup either.  I couldn't picture him punching out a teammate who wasn't practicing hard enough, though I could see Kobe open handed slapping one perhaps.

Forgot about Wade, somehow he has become somewhat under-rated in all this.

I like Butler as a player but I'm not sure having him would have helped that much. Stevenson and Barea are both better outside shooters than Butler and Dallas' spacing was ridiculous the entire playoffs, that spacing and ball movement was what made them so hard to guard. Still an awesome achievement for the Mavs in doing that after a player of his caliber went down.

The title goes to perseverance over instant gratification.



There team has never been better with butler playing.  he's the kind of player that will be good on a bad team.

Miami "Can't Stand the" Heat couldn't handle the pressure and choked.  Loved that game.  LeBron and Wade couldn't hit a shot let alone a free throw.  Bosh is the only Heat that could score some points.  New Dynasty my behind!
 
Nice to see J. Kidd, Dirk and Terry with the trophy.  Good job guys. Way to finish them off in Miami!

im obviously one of the few who are spewing the heat lost but the mavs were just way too good for them. they had their chances to close out games and the blew it so fully credit to the mavs, they were the better team and deserved to win.

That's not what he said.  He was saying the opposite, that all the people who were so happy the Heat lost eventually have to get back to reality and the problems they have.
 
“All the people that was rooting on me to fail, at the end of the day they have to wake up tomorrow and have the same life that they had before they woke up today,” James said. “They have the same personal problems they had today. I’m going to continue to live the way I want to live and continue to do the things that I want to do with me and my family and be happy with that.

“They can get a few days or a few months or whatever the case may be on being happy about not only myself, but the Miami Heat not accomplishing their goal. But they have to get back to the real world at some point.”

Dirk showed Lebron what Lebron thought could not be done. He showed how being loyal and trusting your owner and teamates can still win a championship. And Dirk showed the whole world that teams don't need 2 or 3 superstars to win. He also showed that he's not soft, and he's a leader that can finish. No one, except for the Mavs and their fans, thought they had a chance. Most "experts" predited Dallas would lose in every playoffs series. All the teams wanted to play the Mavs because they thought they were the easiest team. Dallas climbed uphill in the snow with sun in their eyes through out the playoffs and have reached the summit. Congrats to the Mavs and their fans.

Dirk was only 1-12 in the first half and yet the Mavs were still up by 2 at the half.  That's what a team does, picks it up when their best player isn't playing well.  J-Terry played his balls off, Barea contributed nicely, Marion knocked in a few... team effort.

I was so happy to see Miami lose, self-centered egotistical bunch of maroons.

This has been THE best NBA Playoffs in a LONG time, from start to finish. I can't believe how happy I am for Dirk, JT, JK, and Marion... and Rick! They totally deserve it. Best reaction to see from the winning team is shock and amazement... loved that clip of Dirk and Tyson with their arms up, hands on their heads, just amazed that they did it.

I can picture it... if the Heat won, Bosh would be flexing his arms, pointing down his fingers saying, "That's right baby, that's right, we're #1!"

Outstanding job from the Mavericks.
They really showed what a TEAM can pull off. It´s so much more than just individual talent. Guess that´s why I LOVE THIS GAME =)

Generalizing Lebron overall as not being clutch because of his performance over the last two games? I'm rooting for the Mavs myself but again, what if the rest of what I said were true and that he was directed to take it to 7 in Miami? You never know. I sure hope the Mavs finish them off tonight, sucks they wouldn't get to celebrate at home though.


I think it is arguable, these games are for the championship not a regular game or a first rounder. Lebron has not performed to his potential, would you see Kobe or MJ perform so poorly consecutively during a championship? 

Also being directed to take it to 7? No way, these are professional athletes they want to win, and also way too risky. Plus isn't it illegal because thats basically fixing the match.



Haven't you guys seen that tv special about the refs fixing the game? That was more of a money thing though outside the NBA, I believe.

With the series format the Mavs had almost no chance of closing it out at home. They would have had to win all 3 in Dallas and also the one they did win in Miami.

As far as LeBron being "directed" to take it to 7 in Miami, that's ludicrous.  There's so many factors deciding who wins a basketball game that purposely putting your team in a spot where one loss loses the championship would be insane.  It's not that easy to win on command, even with as much talent as the Heat have.]]> Sun, 12 Jun 2011 10:42:57 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1049908#1049908 NBA 2010/2011 Season : and of course im working tonight... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1049896#1049896 Author: timpiper

Well right now i think you can argue that lebron isn't clutch. We all know he is a super talented player, even I as a hater admit this guy is a top player but this is for the championship and he totally disappeared. Although he had a triple double, he wasn't there for the 4th quarter nor did he take over when wade was out. So brining up the bulls series is kind of pointless now.]]> Sat, 11 Jun 2011 19:36:07 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1049762#1049762 NBA 2010/2011 Season : i think its messed up how wade... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1049745#1049745 Author: pyrotechnics

I'm not saying he's not clutch as much as I'm saying he's not the rip your heart out finisher like Jordan was. He's the most talented player in the game but it still feels like he doesn't always impart his will on the game.

Can't wait to see how the next game goes.

Lebron has never been clutch when he's needed to be.  Look back at all the years with Cleveland.  If he wants to be the greatest he's going to need to be a finisher.

That honestly bugs the sh!t out of me.  I can't stand that the kid's standing right next to them yet they throw the damn thing on the ground right in front of him.  Seriously.  And it's definitely not just Lebron that does it.  That kinda stuff kids take to heart.  What better way to ruin your image to a little kid than to be a total ass to them.

I remember when I was growing up these two random college teams showed up in our small, poor excuse for a town to play a baseball game out of nowhere.  My buddy and I went and watched, caught/chased all of the foul balls, and even dug around in the weeds over the fence for a home run ball.  We were probably 2 of maybe 10 people there, if that since both teams were from out of town, so it was like a private game for us.  We went down after the game and they signed as many of their names that could fit on one ball for each of us.  We were stoked on life.  And I think I actually still have that ball somewhere in with my big card collection.

One for the Mavs. Lebron's supposedly biggest game of his career was a really underrated triple double lol. No where to be seen when miami needed him.

Also Karma for both wade and james. Supposedly they were mocking Dirk being sick in game 4. Video of them walking in before Game 5 "pretending" to be sick

Mavs were just simply on fire last night..Barea and Terry were just throwing it out there and were making tough shots..credit to them..Spoelstra's dumb though..why play bibby at all? he can't defend Barea yet still playing..and bosh, wow! he just escorted Dirk for that one dunk..he's really horrible..he'll dominate..in the WNBA    ! I'd say he probably cost the team the victory due to his defensive liability/rebounding..sure he scored 20 points but he surrendered as much points.

The supporting cast finally showed up for the Mavs. The score tells us that the game was played at Dallas' pace and the Heat can't keep up. If Jason Terry and JJ Barea keep playing like this, which they had throughout the playoffs before this series, then it'll be over on Sunday. Haywood being hurt and forcing Chandler and Cardinal to play more minutes actually helps the Mavs. Both teams are going to come out with all they have in Game 6. It's going to be a fun game to watch.]]> Fri, 10 Jun 2011 12:07:00 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1049388#1049388 NBA 2010/2011 Season : love to see this guy lose http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1049385#1049385 Author: woohoo123

He's really not clutch. I wonder if it has to do with always being the best his whole life. He's obviously the most naturally talented player, so he's never had to struggle really. Jordan got cut from his HS team, he had to go through some adversity that helped his competitive drive. Wade is another similar story, he had to work his ass off at Marquette, nobody gave him the opportunities James got. It's interesting, I dunno if you can just develop that kind of drive to have to win.

Also, I love Dallas taking the lead, just one more win!

I love these rumors.  Someone must have figured out that they get to Lebron or something.  It's fun to assume that they're true.
 
Great T-Shirt in Cleveland last summer (hope I didn't already post):
 
LeBron went SOUTH.
His mom HEADS WEST.
 
Honestly I feel bad for bron but I think they're going to get this done -- either way it's been a great series so far and I suspect we're going to see two more close games

I want the Heat to win as well so I don't have to listen to all the crap about Lebron on the radio over the off season.  I think he will turn it on in front of the home crowd.  D Wade will lay into him during the down time.

Agree, that took balls, you could tell he really was just feeling it, because on any other occasion in front of Lebron with that much time left, coach would've been on his a$$ for that, especially if he missed.

I'm loving these comebacks! Bringing the series back to Miami up 3-2 is HUGE. You could tell the structure of the final 2-3-2 was designed to bring it to 6-7 games.

Reportedly, LBJ has something going on in his personal life that's affecting his game. Much like how Pau Gasol was having problems off the court and it affected his performance on the court. LBJ may try to come out and make a statement in response to the media blasting him on his lacklaster performance in this series. But if he hasn't resolved his personal problems, it's not going to be pretty for him. Dallas will also be paying more attention to him tonight. So, I wouldn't expect LBJ to take over the game, at least not in a good way.]]> Thu, 09 Jun 2011 11:47:41 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1049000#1049000 NBA 2010/2011 Season : It seems like LeBron will come... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1048917#1048917 Author: grapeape2669

dude's been on fire the entire series...because of that, i really want the mavs to win just.

he alone, deserves so damned much...

Since when did free throws not matter in this game JandJ? Dirk was clearly off on his shot that night, so living at the free throw line seemed sensible to me. ]]> Wed, 08 Jun 2011 19:19:03 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1048735#1048735 NBA 2010/2011 Season : Originally posted by JandJBlks2knot... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1048726#1048726 Author: LegalBoarding

JandJ Dirk is better than good. He's amazing. He's like a modern day Larry Bird. He might not be flashy but he always gets the job done. He's been consistently solid for a long time. Why do you think the Mavs have kept him around for so long. He's got the short game, he rebounds, he blocks, he creates opportunities for the players around him, he has phenomenal free throw stats, and on top of that he's a forward with a long ball. Dirk is a great and solid player. I'm telling you, modern day Larry Bird.

People are crazy.  Lebron had one bad game after killing Boston.  I want Dallas to win, but if Miami wins all of a sudden Dirk let everyone down and Lebron is king.  If Dallas wins all of a sudden Dirk is one of the best players ever and Lebron can't hack it.  The story changes everyday, instead of people realizing both teams wouldn't be there without either one of them. It is has been a great series and I hope Dallas wins in 7.]]> Wed, 08 Jun 2011 18:40:17 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1048716#1048716 NBA 2010/2011 Season : Originally posted by JandJBlks2knot... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1048671#1048671 Author: tangles

How would Dirk be in the same distastrous categorie when lebron did not make double figures, i still believe lebron is so overrated its not funny, and how pippen is putting him the same boat as jordan you have to be kidding me. Wade is carrying that team on his back and if they get the champonship i will be very surprised and angry because lbj will be gloating.

If i was miami i would trade lebron for howard or a set of decent point and center positions.

Didn't even know dirk was even that good until he scored a ton of points a few games ago. His celebrity for me was not there like shaq/kobe/wade.

Usually don't care much for an individual players points in a game unless it's unusual. Read something where Lebron has been playing pretty crappy. What is wrong with him?

Great showing from the mavs, Dirk is really showing his leadership skills even when hes sick. Plus the win last night was a team win, everyone chipped in.

Next game should be interesting regarding miami in that who will try to lead the team. Will it be dwade considering hes the best player for the heat right now or will it be lbj who would want to redeem himself.

Overall i still want mavs to win.Big smile

Nobody could hit a shot in the last few minutes last night, but thankfully the Mavs held on.  Lebron didn't even seem like he was involved.  8 points is pathetic for him.  Hopefully he keeps it up.

There are contested dunks. There have been some ridiculous flops from Wade and Bosh. They are both making some ridiculous flops and the refs give it to them, they aren't even close calls. It is so obvious on the replays, its just the refs have bad angles. The Mavs do play defense, but its more about traps than it is about stopping the dunk. They prevent them from getting that close and they turn it over in the process of passing. you'll see how they make Miami play sloppily. They might not contest every shot, but they pressure the players for sure.

That plus/minus sounds about right. Unless they're hitting their 3s the Dallas bench is fairly useless and Barea can't just walk into the lane against the Heat for open lay-ups. Hope Dallas evens it up tonight.

I was reading some articles about the free throw disparity between the two teams in the finals...If a jump shooting team like Mavs continues on averaging 30+ free throws, they'll set a record with in the next two games with MOST free throws taken in finals series..Heat on the other hand, the more assertive in scoring inside the blue paint have only attempted half of what the Mavs have taken..I'm not saying NBA's rigged..but without the free throws, I think it's safe to say that Mavs would be down 0-3 by now.

I missed Game 3..but they said officiating was pretty bad that game too..I don't like it when refs influence the outcome of the any game on any sports..I'll just watch highlights on ESPN..watching it live might give me a cardiac arrest! ]]> Tue, 07 Jun 2011 13:03:56 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1048233#1048233 NBA 2010/2011 Season : Originally posted by mrrorydigitalSo... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1048232#1048232 Author: pyrotechnics

No, nothing to do with fines.  Everybody knows that a game 7 is awesome for ratings and it's also easy to pay off people to win or lose.  It's politics.  And David Stern is pretty stern about the fact that there's never any fixed games or shenanigans.  Yes, pun intended.

It was a joke.  Inside of another joke.

Dirk got a good look, that's the shot he's been hitting all playoffs long, he just shot it long. I agree he probably could have gotten a foul call if he goes straight up off the spin, Haslem did hit him, but I'd actually rather take the shot he had over hoping to get a call in the last 5 seconds of a Finals game.

Great series so far, hope the Mavs tie it up in game 4.

I wouldn't be surprised if MIA wins the next 2 on the road especially when they gift wrapped game 2.

yea the damn Heat defense has looked amazing, unfortunately, they have been playing consistently and make the Mavs work for every shot, and as everyone else has said, Dirk cant do everything (really wish he made that final shot last night) they need more help from Kidd or Terry to break away from Lebron...on the opposite side of the ball, i feel like the Heat can do whatever when they go down the court, the mavs need to step up their defense somehow to keep Dwade from exploding on them time and time again, he is playing unreal right now

still hoping the mavs can win the next 2 games at home, but it will be a tough set of games

Dirk should not have made his last attempt to tie the game a fade away jumper! It was only Haslem for goodness sakes, plus if he jumped straight up, he could have drawn the contact and had the chance for a foul to get on the line for two! Another disappointing night for Terry as well.

If Dallas has to depend on Dirk the entire series, they are going to be in real trouble.  Someone needs to step up, and help the big guy out.  Hope for the best.  One game back isn't bad, but if they lose the next home game they are def in high water.  And Dirk can only hold some of the team on his shoulders above the water.  Maybe J Kidd will surprise me.]]> Sun, 05 Jun 2011 20:58:07 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1047613#1047613 NBA 2010/2011 Season : And the debate continues whether... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1047610#1047610 Author: stevo05

I thought it was over and i stopped watching. Miami was up about 13+ points or around there. The next day i saw the score and was a little surprised that the dallas had won the game.

I also think if the heat made some extra free throws, may have gone into OT or to Dallas with a 2-0 lead.

Yes, My newspaper says so, and has never been wrong.
My tv guide says so, and that's sometimes wrong.
Pacific time as in Oregon, Washington,Nevada and California's Time zone.
5 pm Sunday.

I loved how LeDoosh and Wade were celebrating (in front of the Mavs bench) Wade's 3-pointer that put the Heat up by 15 with 7 minutes left in the game, only to lose the game.  Way to blow a 15 point lead, jackasses.  Hate the Heat.

Daaamn, that had to be one of the most exciting finishes this post season! LOVED IT! Dirk was pretty cold throughout the game but stepped up when it mattered! I don't know what Terry was thinking that one inbound play but Dirk saved him.

I still think Wade's put back dunk was basket interference anyway. His last shot though was close, I think if he jumped up instead of forward, he would've had a better release.

Dallas just needs to make those open shots that they missed and they'll be ok. They played good defense limiting Miami to 37% shooting in game 1. Keep up the D and hit those open shots like they usually do, and they'll win.

Yes i think that was the biggest reason why they lost. I think no matter what, Dirk will always get his points. Other players needs to help him out. I thought Shawn marion played a really good game last night, pretty solid. 

Also, Shaq announced that he is going to retirement. I think its about time, really didn't do much these last couple of years. He was still great though during his prime.

ya Dirk wasnt on top of his game and that i believe is going to the be deciding factor no matter what...especially with the way the heat are playing (as you say above), but if Dirk can have a big game on thursday, i dont see why the mavs cant even the series at 1-1

actually its on Dirk's non shooting hand so he'll be fine.

DAL haven't played a team in the playoffs with a defense like MIA so no shock there that DAL couldn't put up 100+ pts or their bench put up 40+ pts.  only way for DAL to beat MIA is to outscore them. 

defense wins championships so MIA wins in 5

Nahhh should be more competitive than that. Hard to imagine a sweep. Plus 1 big down side of miami is that their 3 are at times inconsistent.  Have to give mavs more credit.

Haha, I'll admit I picked against the Mavs first with Portland and then again with the Lakers. By the time they hit OKC I had to admit they were playing awesome, but even then it wasn't easy to pick them.

I've changed my mind though, go Dallas.

Also report saying Jim Buss regret not talking to kobe before hiring mike brown.

I agree, i think both teams should be fine next year. Although some players really need to step up some more and others need to be more mature.

Bulls' starting 5 is pretty solid and also they have good depth. If anything, they should look for another scorer to support rose.

they (the bulls) have to get rid of boozer if they can. there's no pop/lift left in those legs which is horrible for him because he's always been an undersized post player. now he's getting his candy ass fade aways blocked and his layups are getting smothered by guards. the bulls are still good though. we all have to remember here, it's pritty much unfair now in the east. the heat have 3 of the the tope ten players in the league and not to mention thee top two. there's really no reason to watch the nba until either lebron or wade start to decline. it's freakin ridicluous. ]]> Sat, 28 May 2011 10:59:35 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1045114#1045114 NBA 2010/2011 Season : Originally posted by giftedhands Word.... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1045108#1045108 Author: broys

Interesting comparison, but to me Rose already has a better supporting cast than LeBron ever did. The biggest issue was their big FA signing Boozer basically did nothing. If he steps up and gives them 20-10 like he has his whole career they're a completely different team with him scoring in the post. Also, Korver disappeared against the Heat, he's key for their spacing on offense to give Rose some room. I'm not sure who exactly the Bulls go get to improve, besides getting somebody to take Boozer off their hands.

As for Miami, good team but one that is built to look impressive during the season and not one that's built to win in the playoffs. They'll win 50 easy, maybe 60 if they get in a groove. But I just don't see them beating Boston, LA, or the Spurs in the playoffs. Even getting by Orlando could be a challenge.


Why, hello myself from 6 months ago! That wasn't the smartest comment in hindsight was it? I kept waiting for the Miami playoff collapse but... here we are at the Finals. What can I say? The 3 superfriends actually did it... I thought having good depth was a necessity but I guess when you have 3 all stars, going 3 deep is just as good.

Bulls prove you can't win with 1 star. Actually, Lebron already did when he was in Cleveland. Now, everyone else can understand why he left.

The 2-3-2 format for the Finals heavily favors the home team. But I think home team advantage will not matter in this series because both teams had the best road records in the league in the regular season and both have been able to win on the road. I still think the Mavs experience and depth will carry them and they'll take home the trophy in 6.

Game 3: While the bulls are busy trying to contain wade/james, Bosh goes for 34 pts. Meanwhile, Rose goes 8 of 19 to finish the game with 20 pts total. Definitely a winning formula. For Miami, at least. Thanks refs!

Game 2: Damn refs held Rose to 2 points in the fourth quarter, and Deng to 13 pts. (the only other Bull to make double figures). Bulls post 34% shooting on the night (miami posts 47%), and go 3 of 20 from three point land. Rose goes 7 of 23 for the night..my, what an MVP.

The bulls were outplayed by a better performing team, period. When either team needed their best players to step up, James was huge in the 4th quarter, while Rose failed miserably. James outplayed Rose offensively AND defensively, that matchup was not even close. I know some of ya'll are gonna be true haters, but damn, have some self-respect.

James outplayed Rose offensively AND defensively, that matchup was not even close. I know some of ya'll are gonna be true haters, but damn, have some self-respect. Blaming it on the refs is just pathetic.

It's definitely a lack of experience.  They try the same play with Rose taking the last shot of the game even though he was double teamed.  Rose only shot 35% in the eastern conference finals.  Tough to win when your best player isn't at his best.  Heat knew that Rose was their go to guy and adjusted correctly.  If they could pick up another player to take some pressure off Rose they could be drastically better.]]> Fri, 27 May 2011 07:12:24 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1044754#1044754 NBA 2010/2011 Season : Bulls had a nice run, but couldn&#039;tclose... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1044731#1044731 Author: jjfreak

Fell asleep thinking the Bulls were extending the series....my whata bad dream I had.
Saw the highlights of the last two minutes and Miami's defense was relentless.
A very nice win and it should be a great final!
 
As far as the Mike Brown hiring, not so sure about that.  The man is a good guy though so I wish him the best.  Nothing like rebuilding!

I'd agree that the Mavs and Heat are the biggest benefactors of the refs calls.
I wonder who the refs will play for this year.

Boo. Yah.

I told you so. The Miami Heat are going to the NBA Finals. All of you Heat haters can suck a fat one. Remember how everyone was so certain the Heat would NEVER work? How they'd just be shiny coins and a bunch of scrubs? Couldn't pull it together, couldn't play together, couldn't play defense, didn't have enough depth, wouldn't be competing for a championship for years to come, if ever.. now what. God, reading back over what was said is hilarious.. there were so many self-acclaimed guys who 'knew the game'.. ya know, real all-knowing fans. Read: Armchair coaches. Heat beat the Celtics in 5. Beat the Bulls in 5. The Heat are the best team in the Eastern Conference. And we all know who the real MVP is. I said at the beginning of the season, the Heat will not play the same way in game 1 as game 41 or in the playoffs, and here they are. I would dare say going to the NBA Finals is the actual definition of competing for a final, who wants to disagree? 

Make no mistake about it, the Heat are either going to be the best team in the NBA, or the second best team in the NBA. I have no idea who's going to win, both teams are playing out of their minds right now. I hope its the Heat. I'm looking forward to the Finals.

OH, and I love it when people say LBJ isn't clutch. Keep on believing that, while he drains huge 3's in the fourth quarter and makes huge defensive stops. 

PS - Hi Shaka. Hi Bru. Big smile

He is a good coach during the regular season, not so in the playoffs.  I don't think he handled lebron that well like you said, lebron at times would play on his own. Now it will be interesting to see how he is going to handle Kobe, who is questionably a bigger star.

Sad to see OKC lose but they are still young and they got plenty of time to make another run. Overall was a good experience for them considering majority of the guys that played are only 21-23ish.



Nobody could have handled LeBron in that situation, the ownership gave him free-reign of the franchise because he was the savior, his buddies got handed jobs and je just did whatever he wanted. Hard to tell how good of a coach Brown really is, this Lakers thing should be interesting at the least.

Ditto on OKC, I think it was more Dallas' time to get to the Finals, the Thunder will be legit for the next 5 years hopefully.

This year's Mavs are different from the past ones that failed in the playoffs. They're coming from behind to win games, and they're closing out series both away and at home. They're a lot tougher defensively with Tyson Chandler and Matrix and Deshawn Stevenson. And Dirk is playing like there's no next year. The Wade vs. Dirk rematch is setting up to be epic. Look for Dallas to win in 6 in that one.
 
I still want the Bulls to come out from the East. They're still too young though, and isn't playing well under the pressure. Mavs in 5 if they play the Bulls.

Hoping the Bulls can bounce back against the Heat tomorrow]]> Thu, 26 May 2011 06:44:00 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1044391#1044391 NBA 2010/2011 Season : Mike Brown is the new lakers coach.... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1044386#1044386 Author: wechter

Mavs will have a better chance against the Bulls, but I highly doubt they can come back from a 3-1

Oh man, OKC... breaks my heart. Heck of a season for such a young team, just no clutch to close big games.

Chicago needs to put the past games behind them and just deal with this one win at a time. I think they went in with a bit too much confidence and it's biting them hard in the end. They have what it takes to come back... it's just a question of heart and clutch.

Going back to '99 after the second bulls 3 peat the Lakers and Spurs have taken 9 of the last 12 championships. 

Can't hate on Lebron at least he made his move to win championships unlike Melo who made his move for money and his wifes TV career..

That is a young team not having the experience to get it done.  Lebron had Rose's number last night and you had to find a way to get someone else a good look, and they couldn't do that.

Pretty much, it's been the same story for the whole season. Nobody is helping out D.Rose on offense. It's not like the Heat are scoring 100+ a game either, it just takes a couple guys to step up each game and provide some scoring.

Lol it is way to soon for OKC to be labelled chokers you could also say that about chicago if you want to look at it like you. If anything i think orlando should be called chokers they seriously need to rethink there team which is unfornatue for Howard though]]> Tue, 24 May 2011 15:14:06 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1043786#1043786 NBA 2010/2011 Season : Originally posted by RastaRiderCan... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1043746#1043746 Author: RedLego

K way too soon to label them that. Sucks for them for not closing out the game, but Dallas really hung in there than took over in the last 5mins during the 4th. Dirk was making some incredible shots, and the D on him was pretty solid too.

all i have to say about the DAL/OKC game is THUNDERSTRUCK!!!!

if indeed the CHI/MIA game will go to game 7, Rose will have to score 40+ with 10+ ast for the next 4 games to beat MIA.

MIA is undefeated at home this postseason and i think it will stay that way.......at least for this series

no team comes back from 3-1 and everyone has to pay their dues. OKC is a bunch of 21 and 22 yr olds... give em a break, you can't realistically expect them to beat a team of playoff veterans which include 2 future hall of famers. OKC will be a force to be reckoned with for many years to come.

Don’t worry, the NBA will make sure the BULLS – heat series will go 7 games. We’ll have to wait until game 7 to see who the better team really is. There is too much money at stake for them to let it go any fewer games.

Dirk was clutch last night in the 4th and OT. And OKC just fell apart. It goes to show the youth of the Thunder and the experience of the Mavs. Veterans win in the playoffs, and OKC will get theirs in the coming years.

Watching OKC lose that lead in the last 4 mins of the 4th qtr was painful. Durant is just not touching the ball enough and he wasn't getting enough calls either. Series would have been VERY interesting tied at 2 a piece but now... I dunno, they may have just lost their hearts. So sad.

Or was it another play?]]> Mon, 23 May 2011 11:11:43 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1043284#1043284 NBA 2010/2011 Season : Originally posted by STRICK-9 Originally... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1043269#1043269 Author: lightning80

Dallas has been looking really good, might be their best (and last?) chance to win a title with Dirk/Kidd/Terry, they're all getting old, and I think Peja might not even be able to run up and down the court by next year. He's surprising me with how well he's playing though.

I think it ends up Dallas/Heat in a rematch of the Finals in 2003 i think, but this time Dallas takes it.

They deserve to win it all for sure, great players. I still think the Dallas team will still be able to compete in the west, dirk/kidd/terry is still able to run and all of them are looking good in the playoffs.

What a painful game to watch for the first 2/3... OKC needed a frickin' run much earlier! Enough with the pushing/shoving T's. Sucks Dirk got away with it.

Westbrook needs to learn to play the passing PG role and let the game come to him. He isn't a Rose or a CP3, he needs to play within the tempo of the game and let Durant take over when required. Too many times this season he is jacking up shots when Durant is playing well and should have the ball in his hands]]> Sat, 21 May 2011 01:17:08 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1042656#1042656 NBA 2010/2011 Season : Originally posted by broys Originally... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1042560#1042560 Author: HAVEN2135

This series should be good, OKC is much younger and they do a better job of closing out on Dallas' shooters than the Lakers did.  I worry about OKC's offense, it tends to get ugly at times, but Dallas hasn't been playing much D yet this series.


OKC is younger and can Westbrook take care of the ball?  He struggled to get into the game during the 4th quarter.

did you watch the game? dirk did have a good game, sure not a 48pt performace, but still a good game by nba standards. but the bench didn't show up and their defense wasn't there. just 4 more pts from the bench would have made a huge difference to the end of the game. i put those 4pts on jason terry. you can count on him flying again in game 3.

YES, OKC!!!!! Keeping Westbrook on the bench in the 4th was the right decision, good call coach!

Thunder should be getting the ball to Durant A LOT more though. So many possessions, he never touched it.

Boozer's recent good game had him shooting jumpers and fade-aways... who does he think he is, Dirk? That guy needs to stay in the paint.

It's the same problem that was evident for the whole season, and the first 2 series the Bulls played, they have trouble scoring outside of Rose.  Boozer is looking like a bad signing at the moment, he was supposed to be the inside scorer that would take pressure off Rose, but he's been bad at that, and especially bad at defense. Yea maybe he's hurt, but either way he's not helping them with what he's being paid lots of money to do. Imagine if they had Amare instead, same bad D but at least he scores a lot.]]> Thu, 19 May 2011 18:48:22 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1042205#1042205 NBA 2010/2011 Season : Originally posted by fj5Korver... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1042184#1042184 Author: HAVEN2135

1 on 1 Miami offense relies on 2-3 stars.

Chicago's team offense relies on all 5 players on the court and on many of the possessions, Bulls look quite sporadic and waste a lot of the clock.

It's also starting to look like the pressure is getting to D.Rose.

Really hoping the Bulls take at least one of the next two games Miami.



Boozer is getting 15 million a year and can't even get in the game during the 4th quarter

Yes at times, the game was painful to watch with bad calls and just poor shooting overall. Bulls didn't capitalize with free throws, some terrible shooting and nobody stepped up.

There is a salary cap in the NBA, they can't just spend whatever they want.  They cleared cap room to bring in better players, that's what every team does.
 
Also the Heat's payroll isn't even in the top 10 in the league, it's right aroung 15th so they obviously aren't trying to outspend everyone.

agreed.. ur either a heat liker or hater..

i don't really care about lbj or bosh.. but i like wade.. so i'm hoping miami to win!!!

Its kind of hard not to care about the other 2 considering the 3 of them makes up majority of miami's points.

Amazing game thunder/mavs, both stars really played great by Dirk was just unreal. Also a big kudos to the mavs bench, especially jason terry.

 
well i can't say i was overly excited when both of them moved onto miami..

Dirk was playing HORSE for that 1st half ok... 24-24 from the line is insane, the fact that they had to basically foul him on every shot says something considering how well he was shooting from the line :P

1st quarter was crazy with him and Durant going off. A big reason OKC lost is Westbrook being 3-15 from the field... when Durant is on fire, you feed him the ball and don't hoist up contested jumpers. Please learn Mr Westbrook, yes you were a big reason OKC held up during the regular season but Durant IS your closer, do not believe anything else.]]> Wed, 18 May 2011 07:45:10 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1041545#1041545 NBA 2010/2011 Season : What a game....Durant was good,... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1041512#1041512 Author: jjfreak

Naw, Taj definitely didn't travel, he caught it before his last double step jump. If anything, the dude who passed it to him traveled before his shovel pass.

Wow, Dirk was ridiculous tonight... what's the Thunder to do? Such a great game from both teams but they need to shut Dirk down if they want to win a game... but I'm betting Dirk won't be able to do what he did tonight consistently throughout the series. Ibaka needs to stop trying to play d by putting his hand in front of Dirk's face thinking it would distract him... he needs to play tight on Dirk's body because he'll likely take a jumpshot vs. put the ball on the floor.]]> Tue, 17 May 2011 22:43:47 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1041436#1041436 NBA 2010/2011 Season : Hey, correct me if I&#039;m wrong...but... http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40430&PID=1041431#1041431 Author: Jigkidd
