	Log in to remove this advertisement quote The Hazard Dwight hasn't done anything near as bad as that. Barea landed almost bleeping horizontal there. The "quitting" involves two different situations, to which I basically meant at their turn they just didn't bring it, or ran out of fumes. Though I don't think LeBron "quit" as strongly as Dan Gilbert put it, Kobe just failed to show. Maybe the difference is, LeBron stopped caring. Kobe cared, but here he just.. choked everywhere. 7/18 is abysmal for any team leader. No denying Kobe's determination so we'll see if he brings it next season. People are already quitting on his bandwagon and think he's "old", but time will tell. Kobe started the game off shooting like 80% in the first quarter. Dallas played lock down D and he then went like 1-8 or something after that. And its exactly what you said. Kobe still cared but his game disappeared. Lebron stopped caring altogether because his mind was made up long before the end of that series. Sometimes its hard to tell if hes declining or if hes somehow still in his prime. Maybe next year will be different. ------------------- Brawl Tag: 2277-6327-7307

	Kobe is definitely not in his prime anymore, if thats the player you were referring to. He's on the decline, but that decline is still pretty bleeping good. quote Jecht44 My real point is that though it was incredibly stupid, unsportsman like and made the team look like a bunch of sore losers, you cant really single dude out on being "scum" because of it. Everyone gets frustrated shit like this is gonna happen. lol what? "shit like this is gonna happen". Really? It sounds as if you are trying to justify it even a little bit. No. Frustration shouldn't lead you to blatantly elbow another player, espcially one half your size. That's bushleague and Bynum needs to seriously grow up if he hopes to be any sort of significant player in this league. Immaturity like that is inexcusable. You'd never see Dwight pull that act. Sure, Dwight has probably thrown in a cheap shot, but nothing so severe. Anyways; I'm rooting for Memphis and have been since the Magic got ousted. Randolph is a beast and I just flat-out like the talent on that ballclub. ------------------- VESTS! VESTS! I GOT VESTS!

	Sometimes you never know if your watching number 24 or number 8. I miss that afro. Pause. Theres no real way to justify Bynum doing what he did nor Odom. What I mean is that it IS gonna happen. Funny story, I was talking to my gf during the game and I sarcastically told her that Odom should just punch Dirk in the face since theyre gonna lose anyways. Well 2 plays later, Odom shoulder checks Dirk. Then in my head im like, well Odom is out, someone else is gonna lose their cool too. And well Bynum did what he did. I saw it coming. To be honest though i made a crack about it, to see them stoop that low was embarrassing and shameful. But I also can understand their frustration too. You are supposed to be the best team in the world and you showed that you werent. Theyre mad. ------------------- Brawl Tag: 2277-6327-7307

	My MAIN problem with what Bynum did is that he elbowed such a small dude. That's dangerous, especially since he was in the air. Bynum outweighs the dude by 100 lbs. That's stupid! I honestly don't have as much of a problem with Odom because atleast he went after a dude his own size. Bynum was just a bitch. ------------------- VESTS! VESTS! I GOT VESTS!

	I agree with you on that. And also I think Zach Rondoph is quickly becoming a boss among men. His style of play is so gritty and fundamental. Not flashy but he knows how to get the job done regardless.I hope Memphis shocks the world. ------------------- Brawl Tag: 2277-6327-7307

	That play by Dwight Howard - you could argue that he was trying to go for a block there and threw too much of himself into it in the process. But the Bynum flagrant, you can replay that over and over, he was clearly trying to be a punk walking over and throwing his elbow to his body. He wasn't trying to block, make a play or anything. Bynum basically clotheslined him with his elbow and threw him to the floor. ------------------- If I ask you for sex, will your answer be the same as the answer to this question?

	quote DragoniteBallZ The thing about the Lakers is they are more dominant in the paint. But when it comes to teams that can hit 3s, that is their downfall. They have a fairly strong 3 point offense but their defense is not nearly as strong on the 3 point range. And the Mavericks were just barraging them with the 3 pointers one after another finding a wide open man. http://blog.lakers.com/lakers/2011/03/30/defending-the-three-pointer/ I give all the credit in the world to the Mavs, but let's face it, no team could have overcome the way they were shooting in this series. Combine that with the Lakers playing very poorly, a sweep was inevitable. quote Artest choking on that fast offense layup was bleepING hilarious, where is the gif for that

NegativeEnergy Conf. Finals Boston - 3; Miami - 2 Resident Neo total posts: 2957 since: Jun 2007	May 10, 11 at 2:08am ^ re: 2011 NBA Playoffs
	I've been an optimist on the Celtics this whole time and was one of the few I think that believed the Celtics weren't done with an 0-2 deficit, as LONG as they took care of home in the next two games. This was a must win and we lost. The C's are going to look back in the final few seconds in regulation where they didn't execute the play right. I knew they were in huge trouble if Miami forced an overtime. Winning three games in a row, two on the road is just going to be way too tough I think. It was a great run for the Big Three and the Boston Celtics in these last few years, and glad that I was able to witness an NBA title in my lifetime for the Celtics. Barring some sort of a miracle however, this series is about over I'm afraid to admit. ------------------- It's All About 18

	The Celtics weren't playing smart at all. First of all, we lost because of rebounds last year. We didn't have Perkins at the end of last year, we don't have him now this year, but at least we have Jermaine and Shaq to help us out. The fact that neither of them was out there for the last 10 minutes or so is unbelievable. One put back, or even a few defensive rebounds to prevent second chances, would have made it Boston's game before Overtime. And Pierce blew the last shot. All he had to do was fake and lean into LeBron to get the foul. He was jumping, Miami was over the limit, he would've had two shots and put one in to win it. But instead, let's fade away, miss the shot, and avoid contact. With that being said, I still highly doubt that the Heat will win the title this year. For the Celtics to play so badly, especially with KG and Ray Allen's poor shooting, and to be able to force an Overtime doesn't say much for Miami. Hoping for Atlanta vs. Dallas in the end. -------------------
