09 playoffs thread

I'm in the no-more-rings-for-Kobe camp, and therefore will swing my puny psychic energies behind the Orlando Howards.

Excellent reasons to avoid The Finals altogether. It's a lose-lose proposition.

lakers in 7

classic series upcoming

I predicted Orlando to win it all before the playoffs started as a semi-joke so I'm going to stick with that. Orlando in 7.

I did too, but I was semi serious. Orlando in 6

classic series upcoming

I hope this is true. Would be great.

gonna be watching this shit at 3am with the gasol fans!

LAKERS BETTER TAKE THIS

i think people are severely underrating the magic's chances - they're just as good as the nuggs but they don't have boneheads like keyon and jr playing for them so they won't be blowing every lead with 4 mins left

i think it's very important that derrick fisher plays as little as possible in this series

I'm not underrating the Magic at all - I would have much rather seen the Cavs.

i honestly dont see how a non-casual fan would rather see the cavs at this point when it's become clear that the magic are the better team

i think he means that he believes orlando is a tougher matchup

Indeed.

I being a Laker fan, and destined to cheer against whoever came out of the East - in this particular instance, it was the Magic.

was gonna say, i have a file on all the lakers fans on ILH ;)

i might actually hate howard more than kobels.

how is this possible?

If there is anyone here who would not have Howard on his/her favorite team, I think u lyin'.

I would TOTALLY take Howard. No doubt at all.

how is this possible?

i think he's a smug, immature prick with a boring game.

the next person who uses 'boring' to describe a player who is one of the best and most dominant at his position (scary considering his offensive skills are still somewhat raw) gets to eat arsenic.

Oh, and smug? Dude, like, you seen a Dwight Howard interview? Guessing not....

i will go out on a limb and suggest that kobe bryant is at least slightly more smug than dwight howard

kobe is a smug sociopath with an awesome game

k i'm not going to apologize for not liking a guy whose offense consists of dunks he gets thanks to playing on the best inside/outside team in recent memory.

pls wake me when he gets a move beyond a terrible jump hook--O WAIT HE NEVER WILL

I am done with basketball.

lol, clearly someone didn't watch game 6.

also wasn't aware that defense didn't count for anything in basketball. but then again, if you follow the Lakers, I can see how you'd make that mistake.

i'm a celtics fan you goof. obvs i know dwight howard is a good player but i reserve the right to dislike him, k?

i wouldnt tought dwight's offensive game form a series where he was being guarded by big z's nonexistent knees

i dont agree with call all in the slightest but the day dwight howard develops a spot shot from 10-15 feet will be really, really bad news for everyone else who plays basketball

yeah let's all not hold our breath waiting for that day

i think he's a smug, immature prick with a boring game.

C'mon, that's not a proper way to talk about Shaq

"The only thing I can do is try to minimize his touches in the fourth quarter," Pietrus said, according to the Sentinel. "He's a tremendous player and those guys you can not stop them. So maybe I can say, 'Hey, stop, Kobe! Yo! Stop!' Maybe that's the only way I can stop him. 'Stop for a minute!'"

I <3 Mike Pietrus

:D

So Lebron is having a growth removed from his jaw?

"Isn't competition great?" Bryant once beamed after he had won a playful shooting challenge against a ball boy and forced the youngster to run some punitive suicides. "It makes everything better."

god help us if he ever reads the fountainhead

Before catching his breath, Bryant, who had been loose and relaxed earlier this week, then took a verbal swipe worthy of a flagrant foul at O'Neal, his former teammate with whom he famously feuded.

"People think Shaq would have won a championship without me on that team," he said. "They're crazy."

This is Bryant's chance. He doesn't want to waste it.

And O'Neal, a 7-foot timeline connecting finals appearances by both franchises, posted a message on his Twitter.com site saying he was pulling for Bryant.

"I am saying it today and today only," Shaq tweeted. "I want kobe bryant to get number four, spread da word."

putting in my two cents with lakers in six, though i'd love to see the magic win

i pretty much have no†hing invested in either of these teams, don't really care. tho i guess i'd rather see the magic. still comes out to be a boring series imo

whoa i have no idea how i got that cross to appear in 'nothing'

yeah pretty sweet

i like it--gives it an air of seriousness.

no†hing from nothing = ?
