Playoffs are coming up soon. I forsee a Thunder Celtics Finals
Im a Knicks fan (no i didnt hop on the melo bandwagon), but i would be surprised if they make it past the first round considering they will probably play the heat or celtics.

What are your picks? stars? chokers?

Yep and the Vancouver jerseys had illin tribal designs to represent the Native Peoples in the area which was dope and wtf did memphis do to the logo?!
they made the badass grizzly tearing shit up into a bitch ass little bear face

Sonics had one of my all time faves I love the green and gold together now OKC has (like you said) boring royal blue and then outline that looks like peach and orange baby puke

He used to torment my Kings... but he was such a fucking incredible player... and as much shit he talked? the thing is, man could back it up HARD. Not many people could do that...

He went to the same high school as my dad in Oakland, CA. Gotta respect a kid from the Town going out and wrecking shit hard.

i know.. ..... every one in Portland is freaking out. the owner is not going to move them any time soon.

but with more teams moving away from us. our schedule's gets harder and harder. Up in Portland we are on a fucking island... we had the most back to backs this year. and many shafts that David Stern has fisted Sac with.. Portland has got as many if not more.

the main worry for blazer fan is this rumor that if a lock out happens that the whole league will be assessed and cuts will be made. Ae. teams could be dissolved from the league. and thats were the blazers could be in trouble. our team is profitable and our arena is up to the standards of the NBA.

but for being on an island. and our nearest team is 426 miles away.... it makes hard for other teams to play. we are becoming a thorn in the league. i hope that my blazers can last the time. a little known fact. it was almost Portland who got bought and moved to okc.




but play off time.


blazers beat dallas in 6

Yeah.. At this rate they might as well just move every team west of the Mississippi except the Lakers...

Basketball is becoming an east-coast game RAPIDLY... like reverse migration...

super entertaining game
bulls were weak for most of the game, boozer was awful but thank god for d. rose.
39 pts? no big deal. take the lead with 48 seconds left and get the W? no big deal.

lol the knicks are like what 0-7 now against us this season?

the knicks do not know how to win..they might be a good team with a superstar and a half but theres a difference between playing to win and playing to not lose

why wouldnt they foul delonte in the back court with 4 seconds left?? they were only down by one point! Idiots...

but theyre part of our team...how would playing without them make it fair? lol

Melo might be a great player, but he doesn't make the players around him any better (like rondo) and he doesnt have the killer instinct to throw his team on his back in the 4th (like kobe) he's stuck in a weird in-between and he'll never be one of the games elite players if he can't put himself into one of those positions

But he does have another great player on the team in Amare - he should have gone to amare late in the 4th in the first game because amare was absolutely raping the celtics and couldnt be stopped...but instead amare didnt get any touches in the last 5 minutes (or so) and melo ends up taking a very ill advised 3 pt shot to lose the game

he didnt make his other teammates better by acknowledging that amare was hot and would have most likely scored and he didnt have the killer instinct to drive to the hoop (celts were in the bonus) instead he opted for a half ass fade away 3

that 4th quarter was a microcosm for me of why melo will be a good player, but will never be brought up in conversation as one of the greats

and NO ONE besides maybe mark cuban is a more obnoxious fan than spike lee...i hate that little man

Did you actually watch the game??
Amare went to the locker room in the 2nd quarter and never returned.

ya, how many threes were left wide open. christ this is the NBA, not high-school basketball, an open 3 is almost guaranteed to go in especially from Allen/Pierce, you gotta trap&contest those.

very dissapoint

Ray Allen was wide open in the corner more often than I don't know what.
You leave him open consistently he's gonna heat up real easy and start banging he threes and he did.
It looked like the Celts were running practice plays on us last night. They completely broke us down.
It's hard being a Knick fan.

i am a diehard hawks fan. anyone else here like the hawks? i really hope they can start playing more as a team/passing the ball and get rid of all the iso plays. I think they can go pretty far if they do that.

also, jamal crawford's shot last nigth... WTF? soooooo lucky

the mavs were up b 23 near the end of the third when. LA and Broy had buckets cutting the lead down to 18 at the start of the third.. in the 3rd the blazers shot a 16% fg where in the 4th they shot 75%
it was 40-15 run on the blazers part.

watch this vid to see some ROY wonder no knees mcgee




oh and some Rose Garden Footy.... best fans in the NBA GO BLAZERS!
