You dont see the Jazz as a powerhouse now that Boozer has finally recovered from his hamstring injury? He only took a year to get back on the floor, to put it in perspective Ronny Turiaf (Laker rookie) took six months to get back on the floor after open heart surgery.

Meh, it's a nice addition but I've never thought much of Boozer. To me, Boozer was made a lot better than he actually was mostly because of Lebron (back when Lebron was as much a passer as a shooter.)

Before the game, I heard that the Blazers have won like the last 9 of 12 meetings with the Lakers. If thats correct, then now it is 10 of 13. Makes me happy
wuTa - I know you were making a "fun-fun". I was just clarifying that its actually WORSE because I didn't even do it for the money.

I was mainly making a point on how long it took him to come back from such a minor injury. Im not a big Boozer fan either.
Myth, i think the Lakers should be named "streakbusters" for the rest of the season, any team with a losing streak must love playing them. Portland, Atlanta, Charlotte, New Orleans to name a few have all broke losing streaks against us.

no, that is not where i want to take this...why do u need to overexaggerate things man? shit...i dont care how much older you are than me, and you have a son or not, an opinion is an opinion..and im guessing u will definitely overexaggerate this again, so im going to tell you now, i respect my elders( im guessing thats how you will change the topic), so.. like i said, my opinion is not way off like you guys r saying, i have seen people on television comparing the two, and there has not been a lot of...kobe is better hands down. about the fights, and toughness, im not about to back down from this argument because u guys want to overexaggerate. kobe has gotten knocked in his face by chris childs before, hey hes even fought reggie miller...vince rarely gets into fights, and the point i was trying to make was that kobe has gotten his ass kicked by a "PG" before and that vince is strong as hell, which many people refuse to admit by using his injuries against him.
I'm not using my age against you, im just saying you were acting like my son when he is losing an argument. If you were making reasonable arguments i wouldnt have had to say it.
Remember you were the one who brought the fighting into the argument , i have no idea why or how it related to anything we were talking about before though. It seems you are intent to attack Kobe in any way possible, dont complain when someone answers back.
Last of all you say i "overexaggerate" (you could have left the "over" off and it would have meant the same thing and it would have been an actual word) yet you say Carter is "strong as hell", Jesus talk about delusional.

Tanjot, didnt you say that Vince Carter gets in tons of fights, then just say he doesnt get into fights?
Carter isnt strong as hell. He's a crybaby. Always has been. You cant disagree with that.
Also, Tanjot, I'm actually disgusted that your Canadian. Your giving me a bad name. And I still cant believe you give "oral pleasure" to the VC considering how he ****ed over Toronto.
You know, I've always wondered how old Tanjot is myself. He always avoids the subject. I think its reasonable for us to know if we're dealing with a 13 year old or not.
As for exaggerations, Kobe did not get "his ass kicked by a 'PG'." Childs nailed Kobe good. However, when you get hit hard and it doesn't phase you, that does not constitute as "getting your ass kicked." In fact, it makes you look even tougher. I loved that shot Childs got in on Kobe myself, but at the same time I think Childs is damn lucky that they got separated.

if you want stong as hell you go to shaq or big ben or the wuTster (you never heard of him?...he's awesome, i've seen him in person) thats all i'm gonna say on the subject because to me vince carter isn't really worth talking about unless he actually does something besides settle for jump shots and ***** & moan
about the fights, before you ask me a question look at the posts above... and he did mess up toronto, but he has done so much more than fans hate him for. he started a charity game, set amazing records, got us into the playoffs, was torontos one and only dunk champion, and an unforgettable one at that..was our only all star for all those years and the only #1 votegetter we have had, and probably ever will have, and that too for 4 seasons in a row. he was the reason we were so highly recognized back in the day, we have bosh who is an all star and a great player but he can never replace vince carter, you can hate him all you want, but you cant take that away from him. do you really think bosh will do more for us than vince?
you make me laugh a lot sometimes, did i not clearly say that i am not about to back down from this argument....? if you didnt get that last time, ill say it again, i am not going to back down from any argument and dont think i am trying to be cocky for standing up to everyone in these threads, an opinion will forever stay an opinion, as yours and everyone elses...so why the hate on me for disagreeing with everyone, i think it would be better to "attack" someone elses opinion more politely instead of the sarcastic jokes and what not, because these are threads and thats what they're meant for, discussion and debate.
