I love these threads (around the nba) however...we should start including the lines for the games instead of straight up.

I am a betting man...lol...and when I look at these I always am wondering what the line is if I have not already seen it.

How about whomever gets around to it it first each day should make a new thread like this?

I'm just taking a shot in the dark, here.

I have an idea along the same thoughts.

Would it be possible to have vbookie on here? That would be awesome and it would make these threads a lot more fun.

Pau Gasol just blowed by Duncan for a dunk to open the game. :lol:

And he blocks Bowen on the other end on the next possesion.

I like the way the game started.

H1Man
01-16-2006, 08:15 PM
Eddie Jones and Battier both on the bench with 2 quick fouls.

Gasol is good. I don't know if it's the beard or what but the man is playing outstanding basketball on both ends of the floor.

If Gasol isn't playing in the All-Star games, there is something definitely wrong.

01-16-2006, 10:48 PM
Memphis kinda chocked in the 4th quarter against SA. They had the game under control for 3 quarters and Gasol was dominating everybody but they just couldn't close it out.

The refs were absolutely horrible today. Even though the Spurs had foul trouble, I thought that the Grizz got the worst of the officiating. Everytime they go on a run, they would get called for a foul. And they picked up 2 untimely tech's that they didn't deserve.

Also I am kinda suprised at how many cheap shots the Spurs take and not get called for. I don't mind the moving picks and other stuff because everyone does it but Horry in particular has a tendency to push people off ever so slightly. And Bowen is Bowen.

The Spurs started trapping Gasol on the baseline (just like they do to Tay) and Gasol might as well have been on the bench.

Meanwhile, its 4 minutes into the Laker/Heat game and Kobe has already jacked up about 4 shots with his defender all over him.

Kobe and Shaq went out of their way to greet and talk to each other.

It's suprising how many of the coaches and players can't figure out how to handle the Spurs traps along the baseline.

As for the game at hand, Kobe had a couple nice moves (the offensive foul should have been an and1) but he needs to give up the ball early to Brown, Odom and Mihm.

How did the Lakers get up double digits? I looked away for a bit.

Lakers have 1 TO so far (which shouldn't have been an offensive foul).

Lakers are playing solid defense and not allowing any open shots. On the other end, they are executing their sets, moving the ball and going after rebounds and loose balls. All leading Lakers being up by 13 points.

Bynum is in for the Lakers.

Shaq is the biggest pussy piece of shit in the NBA! He has a dunk over a rookie (which should have been an over the top foul), acts like a baddass on his way back, Bynum gets the ball down low, quick little post move past Snaq and jams it, crowd explodes with excitement, Snaq not being able to handle the humilition throws a nasty forearm at Bynum (he's 18 btw).

I hope Shaq chokes on somebody elses' vomit and dies.

But the situation couldve turned ugly real quick. And if I were one of the refs I wouldn't want to take that risk.

If Bynum through that forearm to Shaq, he'd have been ejected.

Of course, double standards aren't new.

no they are not, but they arent a suprise and even our team has been the benefiting party as well as the victim of it.

either way the refs broke it up as did the players. it was diffused so i dont think its a big deal. also i think the ref might've ejected shaq if he hadnt seen bynum initiate the contact(which he did see happen) that always changes things.

Seriously, I don't know Shaq off the court. But he's supposed to be a great guy off the court.

ON the court, I hate him maybe more than Artest. I have zero respect for his game after his first year in LA. He's benifitting from being a genetic freak and confused officials. He has never uttered a single nice word about any team that beat him. He made fun of Tim Duncan when Timmy D won the MVP, made fun of Ben not being able to stop him (100 lbs. weight difference, 5-6 inch height difference), never has come even close to giving the Pistons any respect for beating him...EVER, still cries about being let go by the Lakers ( is now putting up career lows in EVERY category), and is an all around douche-bag.

Fuck him. I can't wait until he retires so the NBA can go back to normal again. I'm sick of this "do we have enough big guys to get trampled by Super-Fat?".

Black Dynamite
01-17-2006, 12:07 AM
it fustrates me too at times. but we've been kicking his ass so im pretty cool about it. as long as we win he can do all the antics he wants. his and wade's arrogance helps us beat them IMO.

Shaq is a little baby in that he needs his ego to be stroked constantly. Without all the attention and spotlight on him, he just can't function right.

Odom with 17 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists.

Tech on Brian cook.

I am impressed with Kobe in this game.

Even though he only has 3 assists, he has been moving the ball and giving it up to his teammates.

If their bigs can stay out of foul trouble (Brown and Mihm with 4 fouls), the Lakers have a chance in this game.

H1Man
01-17-2006, 12:23 AM

Brian Cook ejected from the game.

That ejection was stupid as hell. If Shaq doesn't get ejected for that nasty forearm he threw, there's no way you give soembody their second tech and eject them for that shit.

01-17-2006, 12:29 AM
He's Shaq though. He could walk onto the court shoot any Laker besides Kobe in the face with a 12 guage and only be called for a Flagrant 1 (or 2 which ever doesn't get you ejected).

There is no way in hell that anyone would eject Cook under those circumstances. Both those Techs were weak.
