    Man I wish we had Aldridge during the Memphis game. They appear to be in a bit of a slump.

    The Grizzlies are horrible. Mark it down. They won't make it out of the firs round.

    I would have been so pissed if ATL let the Rockets get away with a win without Harden or Howard, and relying on their 76ers misfits and 80 year olds to carry them.

    Does anyone else think we will see both #1 seeds fall in the first round this season? I think OKC can beat the Warriors and I think the Hawks can lose if they get matched with a team like the Pacers or Heat.

    It would be a wonderful upset since I belive we will be the second placed team in the west. Knocking out both GS and ATL could surely give us HCA throughout the playoffs

    GS will lose in first round. Mark it down.

    Hawks will win in first round. They're stacked and well coached. I honestly think they'll reach the Finals. Bulls & Cavs are overrated. Indiana is for real but I think they'll get the 7 seed. Indy/Atl ECF with Atlanta winning.

    The Cavs are far from overrated

    All marked down. You ready to own up if any of this doesn't happen? No excuses.

    I find it hysterical the amount of whining about the refs over at clutchfans. I thought there was whining over here about it? LOL. They don't have Harden in a game, and all of a sudden they don't get any calls... I don't think that's a coincidence.

    You are an idiot, you didn't refute anything I said.
    The only stat you put up was a career high for 1 player who was 3rd or the 4th best player on his team that was stacked, yet they never advanced to the finals after the 91 season. MJ or not the Pistons were good with a great coach. Learn the history of the game before you talk to me, cause otherwise you become a laughing stalk.
    You brought up The Dream. You brought up The Admiral. You brought up Laimbeer. Yet you still failed when I pointed out STATS.
    You don't even understand the concept of what I meant by the first NBA game ever... Yet other posters DID.
    You don't even read what you said in your own posts. You're ignorant.
    I never said Gasol was just as good as The Dream. Learn to read you tool.
    I may have misread the part where you said championships. But that's it.
    You haven't read shit I posted or refuted anything you can't.
    The stats are on my side, the Winning of games are on my side, minus Rings for a player who wasn't the best player on his team being in Laimbeer.
    The only reason why I saw this post is because I do read the forums while not logged in.
    Guess that will have to stop with people like you who can't argue for shit, and act like children.
    People told you, you were wrong and to stop. Yet you continue.
    I'm in my 20's but I'm more mature than you will ever be.. Simply because I stopped.. Yet you continued to act like a child.
    Grow up.
    Stay a casual fan who focuses on career high's and knows nothing about actual basketball.


    You say one thing about the Blazers as to why a loss doesn't matter.
    Then you use the same argument others are making as why a team sucks.

    Take a logic class, learn to argue, then post.
    You didn't even realize equivalencies was a word, you salty troll.

    Mavericks guard Monta Ellis will likely opt out of his deal this summer, according to Basketball Insiders ... Steve Nash admits he may never play again ... Heat also interested in JaVale McGee ... I know the Steve Nash news is big time and a shocker to everyone.

    Obvious trolls are obvious.

    For all your maturity and "logic classes". This post should have been easily avoidable.

    The personal insults on this post is record breaking!

    Okay, so here we go with my take on your post, without the insults of course.

    1.) The bringing up of the Admiral, Shaq and Hakeem is comparing an MVP center that has already won that award. Gasol doesn't even come close to them. In fact, Gasol doesn't even come close to Lambeer statistically.

    2.) Your argument on Lambeer... Firstly, Lambeer was the third, maybe even 4th option on that championship piston team, yet statistically he put up better numbers than Gasol.

    3.) Gasol isn't even the best scorer on the Griz. He's actually 3rd on the team in scoring. Yes he is their best defender, but it's been over 30 years since a player won the MVP award on defense alone.

    In the end, the insult was overkill, but I actually understand why you did it. Kingspeed was egging you on and I think that was extremely childish. I would recommend that you do not stoop to his level because you are well above that. I know because I've seen you post without being emotional...

    my 2 cents
