NBA 2008-09 Season

[HD MM]

DUDE....WHO cares??!! Did they WIN??!! Did they totally dominated the Knicks??!!
Why is this a big deal??!! Scores tables does not make mistakes?? I am willing to bet one months pay this is only one less hair of his short afro...

...this will not cause a sudden surge in revenge by the Cavs...

Actually it IS a big deal. It was a historic accomplishment since it has only happened once ever before in MSG. Nobody will remember a 52 pt, 11 ast, 9 reb performance. There is much more lore in the "triple double". Sure we still won the game and in the grand scheme it doesn't effect anything, but I have just never heard of a game being reviewed two days later only to go back and correct a statistic.

Suns more willing to deal Stoudemire

If he goes to Detroit or Chicago... yikes!

If this happens, the balance of power will favor the East by so much more than the West. Frightening to say the least.

Ditto!

This is a MONSTER doubleheader for ABC!!

 

[CeltsHD]

F***in' Miami!!

WHOA!!! Denver got WAXED!!!! 114-70!!! Watched a little of that one and it wasn't even THAT close!

Strange night in the NBA last night.

New Jersey beats Denver by 44, and the Clippers beat the Hawks in Atlanta by 24.

Spurs 90........................Celtics 89.......................2:24 left in the game

 

[SabresRule]

The Spurs live and die by the three in a way similar to the Magic.

Spurs 90........................Celtics 89.......................2:24 left in the game

Lets go Spurs!

 

[SabresRule]

This is why I hate the Spurs:

They ALWAYS have a tendency to win games by the skin of their teeth.

They are an annoying, overrated team of fossils that DON'T GO AWAY!

I HATE the Spurs more than any team in sports.

 

[SabresRule]

If the Spurs go on to win the title, I will never forgive the Wizards for allowing Roger Mason Jr. to get away.

Come on now, Sabres.

They have won 4 championships in the last 10 years.

How can THAT possibily be overrated.

I give them credit, they came into the Garden and took it to the Celtics this afternoon!

Don't get me wrong, I'm no fan of the Spurs (except when they're playing Boston )...but overrated? They've won 4 championships in the past 10 years!

San Antonio has really surprised me this year. They could be VERY dangerous come playoff time again.

Unlike other dynasties in sports, they have not done the one thing every other team over a dominant period has done- repeat.

The Yankees did it. The Athletics and Reds did it in the 70's.

The Lakers, Celtics and Bulls- hell, even the Rockets did it!

The 49ers, Steelers, Cowboys, Patriots, Packers- they did it.

Islanders, Oilers, Red Wings, Canadiens- even the Penguins did so.

The Spurs are the ONLY team that has yet to repeat over a stretch of great play in at least 5 years.

If they repeat- then good for them.

I agree. I certainly wouldn't want to play them.

But they've been consistently good to great for over a decade now, WITH 4 championships.

That's NOTHING to to be ignored.

I'm not relegating them to the trash heap.

I just find it interesting that they are the only team that was, as you said, consistently good-great for over a decade now, without two titles in a row.

It's just weird how they have never repeated.

I'm not wishing death on the Spurs- I root against them all the time.

You know that old phrase "love to hate?"

That's how I feel about the Spurs.

Your kidding right??!! Nobody is gonna remember Lebron scoring 52 at MSG??!!

The stats are corrected ALL THE TIME in all major sports....the problem is THIS ONE was made a story by the media.

 

[SabresRule]

Lakers beat Cavs.

Sorry HD, but nothing lasts forever.
