**OFFICIAL** 2008 NBA Playoffs thread

[Baked]

3 points ftw? or 2 points for OT?

James missed a running lay up. Weak. Game over.

 

[Gigantopithecus]

LeBron had a nice double double... 12 points & 10 turnovers!

 

[TheoPetro]

wtf was with lebron this game? His supporting cast did a decent job but damn he might as well not have played.

 

[dbk]

How the hell did he miss that layup. Wow/

 

[Baked]

And that's why he's not the MVP! Kobe FTW.

 

[venkman]

Lebron 2/18 + 10 TOs, Ray Allen ZERO points, Paul Pierce 4 points. There must have been something funky in the drinking water.

 

[JJChicken]

I guess LeBron is overated! 2-18...shocking...

He is not over rated. He has an aweful game for sure tho. How about duncan scoring 5 points in game1 against NO? Duncan is a great player...but.
Man I was pissed watching that shitty game last night.

 

[Casawi]

Dude can u update the poles ? if you don't mind.

At this point, I am sort of relieved that the Suns lost to the Spurs.

New Orleans is for real and are going to SPANK the spurs.

Chris Paul = Superstar. Manu Ginobili = King of Flop

Paul flops as much as Manu ... or maybe you missed his acting, it was worse than Nash last year.

LOLOLOLOLOLOL. Just think of it this way. Will history look back on Ginobili and remember him as a great player or a great flopper? I believe he is going to be put in the same category as Vlade Divac. Hes got talent, but his acting/flopping outshines that in every aspect. Your spurs "Dynasty" is tarnished by notoriously cheap players (Bowen and Ginobili, not to mention Horry), and cheap seasons (Lockout in 99, Last years "suspensions"); which sucks because Tim Duncan is the greatest PF to play the game.

I cant wait to bring out the brooms. San Antonio has to rebuild sometime and it looks like that date is getting closer and closer. I LOVE IT

 

[Matilda]

+ the spurs are the whiniest team i've ever seen

 

[EKKC]

i have yet to catch a CP3 playoff game. damn my schedule!

LOLOLOLOLOLOL.

Manu is already a basketball HOF lock.

Paul had a good season.

I don't know why you guys are hating on the Spurs... those same players beat everyone's ass last year, they are the champions until they lose this year. History might repeat itself ..... no wait the Pistons are still in it :laugh:

Paul has had 3 good seasons, and is improving at a rapid pace. Who would you pick as your point guard over Chris Paul at this moment? Hes only 3 years into his career, and hes already better than I ever thought he would be

Manu may only be 31, but he is an old 31. Him throwing his body all around the court is catching up with him, QUICK. I wouldn't be surprised if he retired in the next 2 - 3 years. He might be a hall of fame lock (I would contest this), but his legacy as a legendary flopper will forever be talked about when people bring him up.

I didn't know the Cavs can play ball without Lebron :laugh:

Only lost to the Celts by 5 without him playing at all in a game earlier this season. Willing to bet it does not take James 10 years to win an MVP like it did Kobe. Also willing to bet James wins more titles in his career and finishes with better numbers, honors.

These are HOF LOCK career numbers?????? Please pass the pipe....

Ginobili tarnished as a flopper?? lol

He's as competitive as anyone in the league, and as talented as most. He'll never be an HOF'er because his numbers aren't consistent or big enough, altho that's partially because he plays to win and not get numbers. The spurs are a balanced team and he's happy to take a back seat to the other balanced options on the team. There are few players in the league that can rise to the level of clutch as he can too - perhaps Kobe but that's it imo. He's not a good player, he's a GREAT player and will always be known as one.

Manu will easily be in the HOF. (Mostly because it's the Basketball HOF and not the NBA HOF. His awards in the Euroleague are HOF-worthy + great NBA career=HOF lock.)

 

[Baked]

Lakers FTW. 2-0.

 

[dbk]

I feel bad for the Pistons. Is Chauncey even going to play in the next game?

That would be a huge loss, the Pistons need every one on the team to win. He seem to control the paste of the game... and he is BIG SHOT BILLUPS

Don't forget he also led his non-US team to a gold medal in both the Olympics and World Championship. No one has a legit arguement about Manu getting into the HOF, unless they have mistaken it as being the NBA HOF.

That would be awesome if he is lost. Of all playoff teams I hate to watch, its the pistons because they seem to approach the game to play just hard enough on defense to win. And if needed billups steps it up offensively in the fourth. They are a bunch of very talented experienced savvy lazy fvcks that can siphon any enjoyment out of watching a playoff series before it even starts, and nothing better than to see their engine be lost for the series.
