Alston is ok, I think his best quality is that he's not afraid to take a big shot. He will actually try and drive or create a better shot than just a jumper. I think T-mac settles for WAY too many jumpers and fade aways.

However, the comments from Arenas didn't bother James.

"I know him personally so it wasn't bad as I thought he was going to say," James said.

Hearing DeShawn Stevenson say he's overrated likely did.

Stevenson said it after the Wizards beat the Cavaliers, 101-99, last month in Washington. When first hearing about it, James was reported in the Cleveland Plain-Dealer saying, "With DeShawn Stevenson, it's kind of funny.

"It's almost like Jay-Z (responding to a negative comment) made by Soulja Boy. It doesn't make sense."

Jay-Z > Soulja Boy

Hack-a-Shaq in effect!

**Phlip** · 04-25-2008, 09:05 PM

In the first quarter, no less.
It would make my week to see the suns get swept.

ALTRNTV · 04-25-2008, 10:29 PM

Fuck the Suns. Why can't they beat San Antonio?
They are ruining my wishes to see a LAL-PHX WCF.

Xandy Boosts · 04-25-2008, 10:57 PM

damn refs are weak. that a flagrant? c'mon now....

because they have players whose natural tendency is to not play defense and a coach who doesn't do a good job coaching defense, especially team defense. their defensive execution down the stretch is horrible, their inability to guard the pick n roll killed them 3 times in this series. Nash is a great offensive player but he gives up alot on the defensive end as well. You need to surround Nash with smart team defenders to cover his shortcoming, unfortunately neither amare nor shaq does that. The suns are in a shitty situation, tongiht's loss almost feels like an end to this run and gun phoenix era. Nash is not getting younger or better, neither is shaq. Neither is going anywhere and Shaq's contract is monstrous. And they're sold the draft picks they have comign up. So basically the only valuable piece to their future is Amare, he certainly has all the physicals tools to be a decent team defender and a great player. I think DAntoni's time is limited as well.

edit: don't worry, as a basketball fan, I'd like to see a more competitive match up, and I think the spurs fit that bill better than the suns.

could be construed as a flagrant, total contact on body, no play on the ball... you sound like a typical phoenix fan... jk

except shaq got there EXTRA late, haha. either way, it's not that farfetched to call that a flag1, imo.

Xandy Boosts · 04-26-2008, 01:19 AM

true, I guess refs know about the emotion of these 2 teams riding high.

I hope PHX goes out with a BANG sunday?

Rob's S14 · 04-26-2008, 01:27 AM

it was a easy call because the baseline ref saw shaq give him like a forearm to the midsection. if he had both arms at his sides, it most likely would have been called a blocking foul, no flagrant.

the biggest display that shows how much shaq has dropped off on d isn't his lack of ability to guard the pick n roll (he's always been terrible at it) it's that he's tried to take like 2 or 3 charges, and from guys like oberto...i mean shaq outweighs him by like 100 lbs easy. he's not even trying to block anymore because he can't. the spurs totally exposed the bad defense of the suns.

s14_legend · 04-26-2008, 01:12 PM

less than 2 hours til' gametime for the lakers

ALTRNTV · 04-26-2008, 01:48 PM

I'll be at ESPN Zone watching the game.

Xandy Boosts · 04-26-2008, 02:09 PM

I went there last week. Could only score 28 pts on the free throw thing though

ALTRNTV · 04-26-2008, 02:15 PM

My game-high on that thing is 48pts. Feels
good to see other people crowd up and watch
you shoot.

I like the one at Dave and Buster's better. I have
a vid of me somewhere... I'll find it.

Xandy Boosts · 04-26-2008, 02:33 PM

My form takes a tad too long haha. I can't just grab n throw. I still shoot pretty fast, but not fast enough.

Rob's S14 · 04-26-2008, 02:56 PM

Game time is 330 right? I'm heading down to the block to watch it. I hope their A/C is blasting.

Xandy Boosts · 04-26-2008, 03:10 PM

230 I think. But it'll probably be around 3.
there's still 8 min left in 4th for the Magic/Raptor game.

s14_legend · 04-26-2008, 03:39 PM

gametime folks

s14_legend · 04-26-2008, 06:03 PM

lakers get the win!!!!!

Xandy Boosts · 04-26-2008, 06:31 PM

no heart from denver. kinda boring after the 1st half.

OptionZero · 04-26-2008, 07:06 PM

Karl and D'Antoni gonna get capped?

That would be quite hilarious. Nellie missed the playoffs, Warriors extend his contract.

ALTRNTV · 04-26-2008, 07:09 PM

*yawn*

I thought this series was going to be exciting.
Pretty boring, just like the Eastern Playoffs.

Nuggets are done. Lakers in 4.

EDIT: Celtics lose to he Hawks. Wow.

kouki_s14 · 04-27-2008, 03:11 AM

how the fuck did celtics lose? im not so sure they can win a championship if they cant sweep the hawks.......

Xandy Boosts · 04-27-2008, 02:10 PM

damnit wizards

phoenix came out to play damn! they are not going out without a fight

looks like when lakers were up 3-1 few years ago and they came back and won...damnit!

ps. some of you guys may wonder, damn this guy posts about every game.
yes I do. do i have a life? yeah I do, but the NBA takes over me once the post season starts haha

MikeisNissan · 04-27-2008, 02:14 PM

s14_legend · 04-27-2008, 06:08 PM

I'm speechless....

Its ok, It was just a fluke! You didnt think the Cavs would lose two in a row to the wizards?

Go Cavs

Wally needs to step it up. Wally has been one of my favorite players for a loooong time. And the "sharp shooter" has lost his touch. Although, hes showed a few signs of regaining.
