    What's so bad about a 5 day break?

    It's not necessarily bad for the players, but it just seems that the NBA stretches out these playoffs so much more than is necessary. The thing that really kills me is when they have two days off between games when they are in the same city.

    ...and then one day off when traveling between cities. If they're going to force themselves to a Thursday/Sunday/Tuesday-only schedule, why not start at least start on a Tuesday so that the three-day layoffs will at least be between travel days?

    I love how New Yorkers are pulling for a team 3000 miles away that they have no attachment to. Meanwhile, their own team will be mired in putridity until 2092.

    I've always wondered why the acoustics were so good at MSG compared to the garden, but when I saw our boys there last week, it all made sense: There are no banners to block the sound. :lol:




    so that puts your fandom since 1983? I like the Lakers because they have two NY guys in Odom and Artest. I also like the Celtics because I've always liked Doc Rivers and watching Garnett, Allen and Pierce. This time, I'd lean for the Lakers because I don't want to see that knucklehead Nate Robinson get a ring.


    i used to smoke blunts with artest after his games at Lasalle here in NYC . a good friend of mine was on his team .Those were the days

    I was in a class with him at St. John's and knew him fairly well then. He's a little nutty but a helluva nice guy.

    No number of rings can rid you of that stamp. Ask Ben Ruthlessraper, excuse me Roethlisberger.

    I know man, I'm just playin'. I have no way of saying he did or didn't..., it's all in fun...chill.

    However, it is pretty funny to be at a Jazz game when the Lakers are here and the whole crowd erupts into the chant "RA-PIST"...it's just funny man.

    One thing I can say to Kobe, is good timing on cheating on your wife...had he done it now, he'd be subjected to People magazine covers, un-godly amounts of media coverage (more so than there was), and let's not forget...the ever so needed sex therapy. :roll:

    I don't dislike Kobe as much as I used to when he was younger and played and acted like a brat. Now, he plays like what he is, a skilled and experienced veteran.

    Not nearly as bad as Ron Artest does.

    You better hope he doesn't lob up another stupid ass 3 pointer with 22 on the shot clock in crunch time.

    Seriously...one too many of those blunts someone was speaking of earlier?? :lol:

    and actually, I'm quite proud of my avatar. Took me only about 20 minutes to make...with beer breaks. :D

    Lets not forget that Ron Artest, the so-called "nice guy" went into the stands and attacked innocent fans. The guy should never be allowed inside an NBA arena again, let alone be playing for a title.

    yea those 4 rings really suck :lol:
    Kobe's 4 rings:

    1. A $4 million "I'm sorry about Colorado honey" ring.
    2. A slightly used wedding ring, only worn once, has no sentimental value.
    3. A used nipple ring, this year's Christmas present from teammate Ron Artest
    4. Suffering at the hands of the Celts as he loses in the finals again.
