*NBA THREAD* Abe will be missed (27 Viewers)

[BRONG]

That was it, the two minute warning did it. I muted the Heat/Lakers game because of the Heat announcer in the background. I can't believe the guy, he thinks it's a cartoon. Marv stopped talking during one of his "THREEEEEEE" calls, to let him finish. It's ridiculous, do Heat fans like him?

 

[Max Power]

Its getting harder and harder to argue the Heat aren't a better team without D-Wade in the lineup.

 

[Britney Spears]

Looks like someone has Kobe-itis.

Could you please explain what this is? Does it make you shoot 1 for 8 in a half? 6 for 24?

NBA change the rules to 24 minute games, prematureJack?

What is Kobe's winning percentage against LeBron?Is it better than his FG percentage?

It's better than LeBron's winning percentage in the NBA Finals.

I'm following via a boxscore at work. Is it as ugly on TV as it is on the cpu?

Curry hearing it from the crowd!

 

[Dr. Gobbler]

Heat are raw dogging the Lakers right now. It's beautiful!!!

 

[tommyGunZ]

ugh...glad I'm not watching.

Marv alluding that they should waive the white towel because they have a winnable matchup tomorrow.

I guess we can add zeff to the list of people to ignore in this thread

Curious who is currently on that list?

1) Abraham whenever he mentions trades and Kevin Martin2) Zeff

Houston: K. Martin 32 Pts, 8 Reb, 1 Stl > allstar

I think Kobe is trying to give LeBron some false confidence. He just threw the ball right to him.

Why don't they just hire the guy from that AND1 road show to announce these Miami games?

This guy makes me think Hawk isn't that bad. At least that homer isn't screaming over the PA system TO the players and crowd. I mean, you have no choice but to endure it.

Seriously, is there a louder, more obnoxious game announcer in all of sports? WWF is not a sport, btw. I'm trying to think of others. Wait, the Bulls guy is pretty loud, who else?

 

[Cliff Clavin]

I'm really curious about this Kobe-itis thing. It can't be refering to LeBron tonight because his 29/7/7/4/3 (with 3 minutes left) is some that Kobe has NEVER done in his 1118 career regular season games.

ETA: Probably should have waited to post this. Another couple points and a dime.

Does LeBron get a ring for that?

 

[JMon348]

Kobe with a -2 for the game. Lebron with a 0.

Not yet Lebron, not yet.

Struggled all night and finished with 24-7-5-3, maintains the scoring lead too.

Some things never change.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Lebron had that itis bad huh?

Ah ####, yeah, forgot about that clown.Who started it? Detroit guy or Chicago guy? Miami guy has copied and then tried to out-do. Even more pathetic.

Heat 5-0, LeBron over 30 ppg without Wade.

a "source" confirms what we've speculated. If Deron Williams doesn't get a buddy with him in NJ, he will bolt at the end of his contract.

You see his list of teams? Maybe if Mitch can go ahead and get the Bynum/Howard deal done, he can move on to a Gasol/Deron deal.

Deron will come to Dallas as a FA. Hometown boy returning home.

Deron Williams' first choice is to stay with the Nets and to build something special in Brooklyn, but if it doesn't work out with his current team, his short list of desirable destinations includes the Mavericks, the Knicks and the Lakers, according to sources close to the situation.

There is a Melo/D Williams swap speculation later in the article that actually doesn't sound half bad. I think both teams win in that situation.

As I write this, the Lakers have missed 9 out of their last 10 shots and have only 8 points after 10 minutes of play in the first. I try to be a loyal fan, but they are becoming completely unwatchable to me. This is ugly ugly basketball right now. What the #### happened to this team? This is awful.

 

[timschochet]

10 points for the Lakers after the 1st quarter. Down 22-10.

Good god tim. A loss on the road at Miami and a bad 1st quarter in Orlando and they're unwatchable? Have you ever been diagnosed as a maniac?

Kobe should just ask for a trade already. He isn't winning another ring in LA.

Definitely an ugly 1st quarter.

Boston without Rondo is unwatchable... no doubt about it.

Definitely an ugly 1st quarter.

Seems like every quarter has been ugly lately. Even when they beat Dallas, that was an ugly win. This offense is just horrific.

But its probably true this time. They don't have the roster or coach to win in this league right now.

 

[timschochet]

Lakers with 31 at the half. And that's only because Kobe went on a scoring spurt in the last 2 minutes. And they trail by 17.

 

[Max Power]

Lakers have too many whites.

 

[Max Power]

Bulls got lucky with who they face during this stretch of games without Rose. Amazingly they've been scoring more as a team without him in the lineup.

Man the Knicks suck. And its a shame they will make the playoffs.

There are only 6 eastern teams with above .500 records right now.
