    But don't you have 1000 guys fighting over the 4 of them? :D



    I can head up north for that. I dig that sort of stuff, but I also like getting a craving for a Slurpee and being able to leave my house in any direction and hit a 7-11 in 5 minutes or less...



    It's tough all over... you don't have to tell me that. And there's no sense in complaining about the Wings... I don't see them losing this year, although I'd at least like to see a couple competitive games instead of what I've seen the past two games. Now go out and enjoy the summer in Canada. :)

    Haha. All of our 7-11s were recently sold to Macs. Alas, our Slurpees are now Frostees.

    As for our summer, it snowed yesterday and was 70 degrees here this afternoon. Thank the gods that I have been working an unhealthy amount of hours and complaining about basketball and boring Wings games on message boards while sneaking a drink in this week.

    And now the Joey Crawford/Tim Duncan/"David Stern wants LA in the Finals" conspiracy theories can begin...

    the two most boring teams in the playoffs, the pistons & spurs that is, are now almost buried to their graves right now.

    as opposed to what?

    the nba has no agenda for the spurs, they dont move the needle.
    Let's not be negative now. Thumper has spoken

    I'm not one much for conspiracy theories, but when the league says they fucked up, then maybe they fucked up.

    I saw The replay last night. They did Fuck it up.
    It drives me crazy when they make bad calls like that. Its a playoff game and an important one at that. They can cost a team the championship with bad calls like that.

    not gonna lie, I had the feeling I had when I was watching the Super Bowl just a few months ago.

    Yes, Allen was superb, along with Perkins and Garnett. Pierce was defended well by Hamilton.

    BTW, what's the news on Rip's elbow? ;)

    I had the same feeling!!! we were up by what.. 17? I kept saying to everyone "its not over" its never over!!!

    If Allen had played that well during the other series, they would not have gone to 7. We need him to keep it up. We need the Big 3 to be the big 3 during every game.

    Pierce was defended well but he played great D

    Not sure about the elbow or the eye ;)

    I hope we take the next one in Detroit!

    The eye and elbow incident seemed a bit over exaggeration though, didn't it?
    The contacts were there but wasn't too malice of plays.

    They also missed the call right before that, where they didn't reset the 24 second clock for the Lakers. That would have ended the game too. It all comes out in the wash, and they never make these calls at the end of a playoff game. Never happens. They don't want these games decided by free-throws with no time on the clock.
