Devin Harris constantly trying to take charges annoys me. On one hand you understand it because he really has no other recourse, since he is 4'9". On the other hand, it's a bitch move and he never gets the call.

I'm glad we can finally put all this Golden State nonsense behind us

[tdarko]

lol. Can you say GHEEEETTTTTHHHOOOOO.

[kidcolin]

Based on tonight's events, I guess the bitches category goes SA > Cuban > GS > Shaq

[barryc83]

Idk kc I think Shaq has a legitimate beef a lot of the time. Its like he cant even make a move without an offensive foul being called. He definitely cant put his shoulder down without an offensive foul being called on him. Honestly, if they wouldve referreed him like they have for the last 2 years for his whole career, I dont think hed even be a HOFer. He cant use his biggest advantage anymore, his size.

But the other 3 I agree are bitches.

[Jack of Arcades]

lol, I can see the criticism for cuban, but I love ehim, he's like a huge fan and I'm obviously biased. I dunno if you should put him higher or lower because of his position.

That said, Cuban's done some good things and he says some things that people need to hear. Or he did, until the NBA bitched and fined him.

7 assists so far for GS. Their offense consists of 1 on 1s by mediocre players + 2 point shots a foot in from the arch. Terrific game plan.

The Spurs completely dominated today

LOL. They were only low % because it's tough to shoot when you've got a Spur grabbing you. So I take it those 20 missed layups were low percentage as well? The Spurs got outworked that game, and didn't get called down the stretch. I'm really starting to doubt this one even goes to six. I don't see how the Spurs come into Denver and beat them.. Even if they make it close, the nugz have been so clutch over the last month.

I'm stunned by how good Nene has looked these first 2 games.

[/ QUOTE ]

This has been pretty standard over the last two months. The only thing that ever hurts him is picking up an early foul. I cringed when he got called early on, especially because there was no contact. The talk amongst Nug-huggers has been that he's lost too much weight and is easier to push around. If you look at him when he was a rookie, there is quite a difference in body type.

Big Nene Highlights

The dunk at ~1:25 is nice. But not as nice as this (posted earlier in this thread).

Skinny Nene Posterizing.

Why do all the Spurs have to hurl their bodies into the ground every time there is a whistle? Ginobli must be getting to them.

Nugs in 5. Seriously.





Okay 6. or 7.

Hi, put 100 on it? I'd take SA wins this series.

So do you think the non-Nugget viewing audience is starting to warm up to Nene? He's really improved over the last half of the season.

[/ QUOTE ]
without a doubt. i saw the nugz i think twice in the reg season, and 1 of those times was pretrade.

i think nene has improved tremendously, camby is a sick defender (I dont know why i thought he was bad, i must be remembering the hurt/injured camby when he was a knick), and steve isnt an awful fit. they make a VERY strong case of having the best starters 1 through 5 in the league. plus, looks like they are actually playing defense.

with 5 games to go and 3 of them in denver, i actually think the nugs have the egde...

[ThaSaltCracka]

Barkley made a great statement at half time. Dallas would blow GS out and proceed to win the next three games. One loss and GS realizes that, "oh [censored], we are in the playoffs!"
