I'll guess I'll forgot those 2-3 years where he cried like a ***** when he didnt get his way.
Is that publication based in New Jersey?

It depends on your Internet speed i guess. You can watch live games through NBA.com (you have to buy a league pass though), or you can follow the box scores and recaps on yahoo sports (http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/scoreboard) and NBA.com. Also you can indulge in intelligent and insightful dialogue right here in the KMC NBA thread with our expert analysts.
😄
Oh, and welcome. Great win by the Mavs today.
hey skyflyer, i'm in wales so howdy do. best way is to watch the nba highlights on nba.com, the daily show is ok but individual game highlights show a little more... but you have to potch about selecting all the games. overtime section is alrite too, thats what i do anyways. channel five also show some on a tuesday night but i dont have channel 5🙁
Yeah it was a really great win for the Mavs. Dirk played awesome with 30 points, 2 blocks and 10 rebounds. And how much is the league pass koolrunnings? Can you watch any live game with? And Royke, you're really not missing out. There is like one live game every week at 2am. There's a channel on sky called NASN which is dedicated to U.S. sport but I'm not subscribed yet. There's also this program that my brother uses called pplive where you can watch live games but it buffers like crazy.

Cavs ended the Nets streak, with a little help from Carter. Vince missed a free throw that would have tied it with 24 seconds left, and possible sen it to OT. James was a beast as usual also, with 18 points in the 4th quarter.
yeah...vince had a bad showing in the clutch...it happens to the best of em...vince will hit another clutch shot for nj to redeem himself sooner than later. the nets had that game won, but that layup and 1 on the fast break by lebron changed the momentum of the game completely. gotta give em credit, using the criticism he took early in the season for not being able to play well in the fourth quarter as motivation, he single handedly brought his team to victory in the final minutes of the fourth quarter. the season series between the two teams is now tied at 2-2.
as for the eyepopping highlights:
lebron crowns nenad krstic
VS.
vince crowns anderson verajon
nets continue to win as they beat milwaukee today..who they will probably face in the first round of the playoffs and will surely beat.
although the nets winning streak has come to an end, vince carters streak has continued. after todays game in milwaukee, he has now scored 20 or more points in 21 consecutive games. his career high in that stat is 23 games with the toronto raptors.
Congratulations Vince.
Anyone notice how some of the top teams are starting to struggle. The Spurs and the Heat specifically, Duncan looks like that foot injury is really bothering him and without Duncan the Spurs wont repeat. Wade seems to be carrying the Heat, why isnt he getting any help from the rest of their talented roster? Walker is a joke and obviously Shaq is saving himself for the playoffs (at least Wade is hoping so).
Dr, its going down to the wire dude. 😈
yea, i hate walker myself...such a crybaby...everytime a call goes against him he looks like someone stole his icecream cone, i hate payton just as much.....I don't think heat improved at all from last year, on paper, there roster seems golden, but when you watch them play its a different story, it doesn't seem like they have any chemistry or rythme...of course injuries might have alot to do with that, shaq, morning, williams, ect....everytime they seem to get in a rythme or on a roll someone gets hurt, even tho Wade picks up the slack everytime that happens, he can only do so much on his own come playoff time, as great as jordan was, even he needed a healthy core to win championships
i think the williams wade and shaq nucleas is fine... haslam isn't too bad a player with them either... but they should get rid of payton and walker... walker should be on a team where hes more involved in the offence, and paytons just a bit too over the hill in my opinion, and would be best served on a team with young points to teach them the game... not sure wade needs that.

I'm deeply offended.
How could you say he can pull off gay better than me? 😛
http://www.leadernotes.com/topics/Kobe-Bryant.html
to add to my point a while earlier about kobe.
😆 Are you for real man?
If you search hard enough you will probably find some websites saying Britney Spears is the most talented musician on the planet. Its not hard to find sites that bash Kobe, here's one for you to bookmark in fact http://kobehaters.blogspot.com/. My point is just because you find a site that agrees with you doesnt make it 100% true.
The fact is Kobe is the Lakers leader and he has done what very few thought he could which is lead the Lakers to the playoffs (baring some historic collapse). He has done it with a starting lineup featuring Smush Parker (who is on his longest stint on an NBA team), Brian Cook (who's is so bad defensively that the opposing teams strategy is basically "get the guy who Cook's checking the ball"😉, Kwame Brown (who to be fair is developing into a solid center, but that certainly wasnt the case for 3/4 of the season) and Luke Walton (who for all his passing skills has the physical skills of Larry Brown). Odom is playing very well but earlier in the season he was horribly inconsistent and Mihm has been injured for over a month after have a very steady season.
Now i realise that you hate Kobe and about that i really dont care, but you should at least acknowledge that he has lead his team from the front this season and done a very respectable job. Sure he shoots too much, who would you rather he gave those shots to? Walton? Cook? Vujacic? Gimme a break kid. He may not fit the "Steve Nash - makes his teammates better" definition of a leader but i'd love to see Nash try and "make" Vujacic hit wide open threes.
one thing i didnt agree with in that link.... was michael jordan made pippen a better player... it worked the other way around too. would jordan be a 6 times champion if there was no pip? maybe a couple but not 6 rings. pippen was an awesoem defensive player, not just through stats but he did all the little things like make shots harder and knock the ball loose where another bull could steal the ball.
kobe should be given credit for having a word with kwame and helping him develop. he has his faults, all players do. its all well and good to point out a players faults that you dont like, but not when you cant take it baout a player you hold so dear.
