NBA discussion thread

Sheed needs to shut his damn mouth and concentrate on winning ball games, his guarantee shit has always got on my nerves. Does anyone know his stats after he makes his predictions? All the games i can remember after he has opened his mouth he has had poor games but his teammates have bailed him out.
Hopefully this will humble him and he can get back to helping his team win, why he camps out on the 3pt line i will never know. Sure he can make them but he has a very good post up game that can get him higher percentage shots. Plus if he misses from close Big Ben doesnt have to go running out by the 3pt line to chase down the rebound.

Myth - Ive only heard the selection for 1st team defensive, thats all.

Yeah, I know they did Defensive teams (I think they announced 2nd team at the same time).

As for Sheed's guarantees, this is the 1st time they have not followed through (4 for 4 before today).

And I never thought that the Cavs would be doing better against the Pistons than the Spurs are doing against the Mavs.

bbaahahahahaaa, oooho shit, is Cleveland gunna pull it out!? three shots for double glock-glock bitches!

And Dallas raped SA in OT. WOOT, I can't wait for Suns vs Dallas conference final

hell no cleveland ain't gonna pull it out.....Sheed has made 5 guranteeds, lost 1 one of them like Myth said, he played good in 3 of the 5 games he guarenteed, I don't mind if he's shootin 3's, as long as they go in and has already established his postgame presence, when he's playing the post and hitting 3's he is impossible to guard ....SA ain't dead yet, i think they're gonna win game 5, game 6 is gonna be the deciding game in that series if you ask me

has anyone else noticed how bad the officiating has been this round?.....the officials have been on a powertrip and dictating the games, not just the game pace, but the outcome as well...this has been espicially true in the spurs/mavs series.....I mean instead of letting the players play the last two minutes of the game they are calling alot of tictac fouls, questionable fouls, and phantom fouls

right, and then they dont call some of the actual fouls. it evens out i guess.

well it does even out because they do it both ways, but it takes away from the game, you put the players (sometimes underservingly) on the foulline to decide the outcome instead of letting the players decide the game with there skills, which is why they have 80 million dollar contracts, plus it cheats good defense which is really annoying, a defender will work his ass off and play awesome defense in the closing minutes and he gets awarded by sending his assignment to the free throwline

This may be hard for you to hear tanjot but Vince is actually human and can make mistakes just like us. It happens to the best of them.
😉

well.. if vince wants to make his mark as one of the top notch great players in nba history he will have to step up. the reason i am so pissed at vince for missing the free throws is because it would have completely changed the whole outcome of the game. if he had made atleast one free throw i would not be nearly as shocked or pissed. the nets , and especially vince must come out firing in game 5 today because they face eliminiation. the way i see it, the nets will have more sense of urgency because no matter how much pat riley stresses it, the heat will play as a more relaxed team than the nets. it will be no different in game 6 as the nets will know what is at stake. not saying the nets will win game 6...but they should. i am saying they will win game 5 today though.

Where the f*ck are you getting your info? He was never an all-star either.

Dude, I was obviously kidding.

Does anyone even remember good old Herb Williams?

Oh and the way the H is silent, so yes it is pronounced Erb... 😆

Uh, I think u fell a bit short on your prediction there chief.

Oh well better luck next year I guess 😄

Wow! what a game!!!!

Why are the Clippers having so much trouble with the Suns, I just don't understand why the Clippers can't just pound the ball inside every time like the Lakers did. The Suns really have no answer for Brand.

It just goes to prove what I said before that Suns team is hella talented man. I can only begin to imagine how tuff they're gonna be next year with Amare back, assuming he comes back full strength, look out!!!!!

yea, it was a hell of a game....the clippers have been pounding the ball inside to Brand, he's getting doubled, and with the clippers other big man hurt he's not able to give Brand any relief, also when Kaman is healthy, at times he is a liability when the suns are able to control the tempo, but yea....that game was awesome, had my at the edge of my seat the whole game.......raja bell is really making a name for himself in this years playoff, but what the hell was dunleavy thinking putting in daniel ewing in there to guard him on that play?!

I don't know. You didn't seem to be kidding about Ostertag and Herb is much more believable. Herb potentially deserved to be an all-star, just was never selected.

YAY! Nets are gone! WOO HOO! 💃

I'm very disappointed in the Clippers though. They couldn't hit their important shots down the stretch, threw the ball out of bounds ON AN INBOUNDS, got an 8 second call, and threw Ewing in for 3 seconds who did horrible defense on Bell's 3 for the tie. Also, I was extremely pissed when they called Livingston out of bounds. After the game they replayed it in slow mo several times showing he did not step out of bounds.

blah clippers should have won that game, some bad calls and some stupid plays went a long way to cost them a huge game.

even tho Livingston was in, that call really didn'y decide the game, it didn't help obviously but wasn't really a deciding factor of the game

Oh, don't worry. I'm mainly blaming the play of the Clippers.

I was kidding about Ostertag too.

The only Herb Williams to ever play in the NBA (who retired as a Knick), averaged 19.9ppg, 9.1rpg, and 2.4blks in 1986 with the Pacers (all-star candidate numbers).

Anyway, whether you were joking or not, the point (originally) was that Duckworth wasn't all that bad.

Hmm, I remember someone saying the Cavs didn't have a chance against Detroit.

They're stomping the Pistons, I don't know what the hell is going on, but Detroit is falling apart at the seams.

GO CAVS!!! I love the underdog.

*sigh*

WERE being stomped. Goddamn Cavs. They better pulls a miracle from their ass.
