Next shot has to be TI giving him a big hug, right?

lol is ti a miami fann

isnt he in jail

In March 2009, T.I. was sentenced to one year and one day in prison and ordered to pay a $100,300 fine for the felony weapons charges, which will begin no sooner than May 19, 2009.

i wouldve started serving my sentence right away cause at least youd hav the playoffs to amuse u for the first couple months

ti hedging his bets there

Good to see that teams are keeping it close game 3.

wow, the spurs are 18-66 from the field.

They will be positively frightening at home with their crowd behind them. (I see them winning Game 3 by 20-plus on Thursday night.)

b1ll simmons on the bulls

Not exactly Kreskin is he.

ugh is tnt going to switch to the spurs game

c's defense was on point tonight

lolabrine with a 3, welcome back fattey

yo bulls, that would have been a 100% shameful display in the regular season (down a solid 30 before the 11th and 12th men went in), nevermind the g.d. playoffs. which brings me to a question i have not seen asked abt these guys: who is their leader? they have a rookie coach and all their best players are the types that could benefit from veteran leadership (their best player could also occasionally look like he enjoys basketball). paxson has cleverly built one of the most rudderless "good" teams i've ever seen.

lol @ the lakers pick and roll pwn

damn big baby put up some numbers 2nite

lol niice game kobels

cbooze 23-22 - 4 tha h8rs

booz was playing like he used to play pre-injury, i missed the whole 2nd half due to band practice ;_;

boozer came through, good game. the lakers haven't had to brave games this tight in a while. got high hopes for saturday

kobe had an endearing joviality during his press conference tonight

man bulls played horrible - never seen so many shots front rim from a team w/two days rest

cbooze 23-22 - 4 tha h8rs

22 reb is sick. still think he's a complete no-show on defense

kobe went 5-24 o_O i don't imagine that happening many more times this post-season

eh kobels does shit like that from time to time - he takes a lot of tough shots and when theyre not falling... always considered it to be one of his weaknesses that w/the right personnel he can be baited into taking a ton of contested jumpers - of course he often makes them - still its def yr best plan of attack

kobler

their best player could also occasionally look like he enjoys basketball

who's that?

that was my half-buzzed description of rose. it's great that dude is so calm but it's kind of eerie at the same time.

It's amazing how close that game was considering how cold Kobe was.

22 reb is sick. still think he's a complete no-show on defense

he actually played some D last night - accomplished mostly by stripping the ball down low. pretty hit and miss strategy, much of the time it just results in him getting in foul trouble

a lot of boozers D problems have to do w/physical and systematic shortcomings rather than lol laziness or whatever - hed be fine on a more defensively talented team w/less responsibilities

^ stan

lol i never really cared abt boozer til everyone started trashing him on the i love hoops internet chat board

no hes right; i feel bad for him when a dude like gasol can just do whatever he wants with him

xp

hey joe i heard your gay for carlos boozer

its true - it was me not prince who painted his house purple - i painted it w/my heart

pistons have lead through the 1st quarter so far ?_?

It's still early, but game 3s on the road are generally the hardest win (don't have any stats to back this up, but that's the way it always seems to me.)

didn't last long

i've seen most of boozer's games in a jazz uniform, a lot of it is laziness. rumor around town is that mrs kirilenko used her exception on him, maybe that's why he's not returning your calls

lol steve blake
