2011/2012 NBA Thread: Greatness & Awesomeness

[lordofthenerds]

All these flops have gotten me thinking, they should add an "Acting Ability" attribute in 2K13. It would increase a player's ability to draw fouls. Lebron and Blake would be rated at 99 here of course.

Maybe they'd have a Legends portion of that feature and you could play as Vlade Divac. t:

Run down the court and Manu Ginobili just explodes...

 

[BatSpider]

Lebron will never be a great player because he doesnt play like one, flopping like the sorry players in the league do.

 

[Doc Samson]

Meh, Bosh manned up last year in the playoffs against Garnett as the series progressed.

The East is all but locked up for Miami now.

Well he sure didn't the last few times they played this year. I doubt Rondo's going to dislocate his elbow again too.

 

[runawayboulder]

He's a great player based on his stats alone but he will always be behind Jordan and Kobe.

Yup, that's why.

meh...I just want my second championship...

Go Heat!!!

Rose, you're in my prayers. I hope you get better and you would have been great at Olympics...

Go Heat!!!

Ladies and Gentlemen, the Duhon Roll:

I saw that MisterJ and I thought to myself, this is game one and he is celebrating like they won the series. I think Indy took them lightly so I expect a blowout the next time they play.

 

[Mister J]

I didn't even watch the game, so I was surprised they won. Duhon probably was too.

 

[Darthphere]

It reminded me a lot when Bron hit that game winner with Cleveland. That was the last game he won as a Cav I believe.

 

[Daniel Thompson]

Bet yall think 76ers got a shot at making series exciting now huh.

 

[Docker2.0]

WHat??!?! Heck no!! Bulls in 5. It's the next round I think the Bulls get beat, whether it's Atlanta or Boston, they need Rose for that series.

 

[Daniel Thompson]

Never said 76ers would win the series, said would make it interesting. Still think they can win atleast 2 games, with Rose out it might be 3 games now.

 

[runawayboulder]

Bulls can beat the Sixers with or without Rose. They're gonna have a big problem with Boston.

It sure looks now like a Boston/Miami ECF is coming. It would be awesome if the Knicks beat Miami and totally turned the Eastern Conf playoffs on it's ear but there's a slim chance of that happening. The Shumpert injury is a major loss defensively.

I think it's going to be Boston/Heat now that Shump is out. I'm hoping the Knicks can step up(and the refs step out!)to make it an interesting series but if not, I look forward to them playing the Celtics.

 

[runawayboulder]

At least they had a poorly officiated game now than in a game 4 or 5. I hope I don't see that same crew again in this series. That double T on Stat and Haslem was a bunch of B.S.

I guarantee you a different Game 2. They'll make adjustments on those entry passes, if they even still try to get Melo the ball that way. And I also don't believe they'll turn it over almost 30 times again. Bottomline is, they need this game if they hope to make it a series. I expect their best effort.

 

[Docker2.0]

Again Doc, if the refs let them play, I expect a different series. The ticky tac fouls and charges really were a killer and don't think I'm saying this because I'm a Knicks fan. I live in the NYC area and there are a lot of Knick haters and they will tell you that game was bs. Sad thing is NOONE on ESPN is talking about the refs. It's all being swept under the rug. Even on Twitter, People like Bayless, Steven A, and Jamelle, they are saying how great Lebron was, never mind he won the MVP and a Oscar in the same season but whatever. It's over and I'm ready for game 2.

Doc I agreed with you, all I said was they made it worse during that same stretch in the 2nd quarter with all the turnovers and disjointed offensive possessions.

There's no question Lebron flops, and Wade too for that matter, that's partially how he got his ring in the first place, with probably the worst called Finals series I've ever seen. But you can't turn it over as much as the Knicks did, especially with the game called the way it was. Still, like I said before it started, I didn't think they would win the first game anyway. It's the next one that's crucial.

You are not arguing with me the right way!!!!

What was I thinking?

My gawd, the ladies of the NBA commentating today! Doris Burke and Lisa Salters!! One is built like a man and the other sounds like a man. If they are going to use women to comment on games, at least make them good to look at.

With that being said, I'd smash them both!

Well it is the least exciting series they are commentating in. So no wonder why they got the Spurs/Jazz.
