uh oh... not looking good for GS

 

[Ricochet]

Jeez, Dirk. Why didn't you play like that earlier?

 

[GuitarDaddy]

Go Mavs, game six will be a barn burner

 

[Ricochet]

Mavs fan were about to have a heart attack. That was too close.

 

[maddogchen]

i love how when the Warriors took the lead, TNT cut to Cuban and his head just dropped in his hands. that was a great moment, totally unexpected

 

[Inspector Jihad]

dirk stepped up...a 3, a block, followed by another 3 and then clinched it with the free throws. he needs to ride the momentum into game 6

definitely not, Warriors will have the momentum from the start, our home court is so much more energized and rowdy. And we'll be riding the emotional hurricane after the technicals/ejection on Jackson and terry's jackass attack on Davis. Just like Game 3 baby.

home court is overrated.

and yet, the warriors record at home and on the road differ by so much. It makes a difference.

OMG: Please Golden State! I believe! So close last night, My theory? they'd rather win at home where there will be a loud ruckus and Mark Cuban will still cry. Please make cuban cry? Thanks

I had a feeling the Nuggets would pull through. Nuggets in 6.

The Spurs played like absolute sh!t, and still had a chance to pull it out with 20 seconds left. They will win the series 4-1.

Fo shizzle. One more to go.

I'm a prophet.

 

[wkabel23]

Bring on the Spurs

 

[DanTMWTMP]

absolutely ****** pathetic. Lakers gave me more stress than ever this season. What a disapointing season. What a disapointing ending to a retarded season for the Lakers. Great, waiting one more year.

well, congrats suns. good luck to the team and their fans this season. well deserved win. Goddamn i'm so pissed.

 

[Inspector Jihad]

legler, who picks the suns, was on mike and mike and he was saying amare is the difference in the spurs/suns series and how back in 05, he avgd 38 pts game. however, he failed to mention that the suns lost 4-1 that year. lolz.

The old and new Amare are two totally different players, with the old one actually being better. Spurs in 6.

No. More athletic, perhaps. The new Amare is a much smarter player and has a much much better jumpshot and shoots better from the free throw line. Amare averaged 38 points against the Spurs that year because Tim Duncan had problems with both ankles, and because the Spurs gameplan was to let Amare get his points but control Nash and the rest. This Suns team is much better than that team (much deeper, more playmakers) but you still have to respect the Spurs. The Spurs are the only team that has been able to stop the Suns (excellent transition defense and good defense on Nash). The Suns have homecourt advantage but the Spurs have a sizable advantage in coaching IMO, and the experience. I hope the Suns can pull it out but it'll be very tough. :beer: to a great series!

Quentin Richardson did absolutely nothing in the playoffs two years ago. He had a bunch of talent but he was pretty much a 3 point chucker who could catch fire every now and then but really didn't shoot the 3 that well. Raja bell is a much better defender (he plays Manu very well) than he is and shoots the 3 much better. Barbosa barely ever played two years ago so he's a huge huge improvement off the bench. Add in Diaw, Kurt Thomas (solid interior defense should come in handy against the Spurs) and Amare is a much improved rebounder. Nash is better than he was two years ago as well. This years team is deeper, more experienced and has a lot more talent 1-8.

we believeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
go gsw win tonite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dirk is the smallest 6'11" guy in the NBA. he plays small but isn't quick enough to keep up with GS's smaller PF / C. and he's not strong enough to over power them.

Some other guys are going to have to come up big if dallas is to win this series.

 

[Corporate Thug]

Davis is moving very poorly, not a good sign

Is Dirk even playing? For an MVP candidate, he's very disappointing. He seems to play with no energy, no drive. Why doesn't he go to the basket and draw fouls?
