***OFFICIAL*** 2005 NBA FINALS Thread!!!! ***CONFIRMED***

[gflores]

Man, all the games have been blowouts.

 

[BRObedoza]

Dallas and Phoenix are the type of teams that can make a 20 point lead disappear in a hurry, but it doesn't look like its gonna happen tonight

 

[iamme]

blowouts last night.....hopefullly those game become a little more competitive.

phoenix scoring 127 = :Q

 

[meltdown75]

:music: goin' to work :music:

Go Pistons!!

 

[jalaram]

Oddcast is back for the NBA playoffs. Time for some trash talking.

Virtual Trash-talking

 

[BRObedoza]

Pistons up by 15 early over the Pacers. looks to be another blowout *yawn*

 

[BRObedoza]

whoa Pacers up in the 4th. just kidding about the blowout

 

[jalaram]

That was just amazing. Foster outrebounding Wallace?

 

[BRObedoza]

Dallas vs Phoenix looks to be going down to the wire.

 

[spacejamz]

whew......Dallas barely pulled that out...

 

[RagingBITCH]

I knew they'd win Game 2. There's no way Dallas was gonna let Phoenix steam roll them again. Dampier finally showed up. Dirk was still MIA. and sh!t, Finley showed up bigtime.

 

[jalaram]

No Shaq tonight. Can the Bullets steal one? (Yeah, I know, but the "Wizards" still sounds stupid).

 

[BRObedoza]

booo its not on TNT. i don't like espn's studio guys.

 

[monk3y]

Wizards looking poised...

 

[Miramonti]

Miami winning game 3 over the wiz w/o shaq is a great example of why shaq should never have been seriously considered for mvp.

phoenix lost without joe johnson last night. does that make him more valuable than steve nash?

Lets see them win without Nash...

I think the suns proved earlier in the year they are inepts without him.

Beyond your facetiousness tho, johnson is a big part of the suns success and they will definitely miss him for the next couple games.

yeah i doubt they'd win anything without nash. just bustin with ya about Johnson

but the game was against the Wizards, who are also lacking in the front court department. yeah it was a road game for the Heat, but they did just enough to get by. Now, if Shaq is somehow injured again and the Heat win a couple of games against Detroit, then i'd seriously wonder his MVP merits.

maybe it's just a great example how the wizards got a nice draw with chicago in the first round and they really aren't that good? :roll:

Nash got the MVP because he is white. No more, no less. MVP was Shaq, no doubt.

That's ridiculous. His numbers are down in everything except field goal percentage, which only means he gave up on any semblance of a shot other than a dunk or layup.

It's a travesty that people would even consider giving a guy an mvp trophy for just showing up and being big. Wade is the energy and spark of the team, and its obvious that the heat are a very well put together and balanced team, and altho shaq is the anchor, he's not a very productive anchor and definitely didn't have an mvp year.

 

[BRObedoza]

almost the 4th quarter and the Pistons haven't even showed up yet.

 

[BRObedoza]

well, they've shown up now in the 4th
