now THAT's nonsense!
man they were saying on ESPN earlier that the Cavs would be the team to beat this year. Celtics go the memoTeam to beat: Mavs . . . :-\
fuck yall haters. we still have depth without blakey (aka Basketball GOD!)I didn't even know the Clippers had fans.
Wow, it's amazing how much basketball has completely fallen off my radar...I didn't even know the Sonics moved to OKC. I guess they didn't make to many highlight reels I'd catch in passing. This is coming from a guy that it used to be my favorite sport and the Sonics were my favorite team.
Oklahoma City Thunder
I predict the Mavericks will have the best record in the NBANot happening.
and lose in the first round.Probably will happen
Mark Cuban found to have hung himself the next day.Not happening. A Billionaire isn't going to kill himself because one of his many toys isn't performing well.
Oklahoma City Thunder
Fuck 'em.
Ya, but when you get that close to the promise land that many times and fail, it drives people crazy. They are like the Bills of the 90's.I predict the Mavericks will have the best record in the NBANot happening.and lose in the first round.Probably will happenMark Cuban found to have hung himself the next day.Not happening.

Mavs might not make the playoffs
They are like the Bills of the 90's.
Nice condition. They're an old team and very likely to experience some injuries. And Josh Howard is never healthy.Mavs might not make the playoffs
Maybe, but that would require two of the Suns/Thunder/Clippers/Rockets/Warriors finishing above them. Hard to see that happening if the Mavs are healthy.
Oklahoma City Thunder
Fuck 'em.
u mad?
The Clippers: where players go to die.Yeah, Griffin didn't play a game before busting his kneecap. Ouch! :o
Saw the Cavs and Celtics game last night. Pretty lol to see Lebron James wah wah on the court.Cavs look like they might go 0-2...against the Raptors :lol
Cavs look like they might go 0-2...against the Raptors :lol
How do the Cavs look? Offense/chemistry not working? I didn't expect them to start out so slowShaq being old and washed up, LeBron bricking jumpshots and chucking up desperation 3s at the 2 minute mark, and Mike Brown sucking dick at coaching as usual (at one point he had Shaq and Ilgauskas on the court at the same fucking time :lol). I think Bosh out-rebounded the entire team, too.
Omg (http://www.theonion.com/content/video/fatal_staples_center_collapse) :lol
We had another variation of this gag simply referred to as the "first foul of the game" bet. While still in the locker room before tip-off, we would make a wager on which of us would call the game's first foul. That referee would either have to pay the ball boy or pick up the dinner tab for the other two referees. Sometimes, the ante would be $50 a guy. Like the technical foul bet, it was hilarious — only this time we were testing each other's nerves to see who had the guts to hold out the longest before calling a personal foul. There were occasions when we would hold back for two or three minutes — an eternity in an NBA game — before blowing the whistle. It didn't matter if bodies were flying all over the place; no fouls were called because no one wanted to lose the bet.:lol
We played this little game during the regular season and summer league. After a game, all three refs would gather around the VCR and watch a replay of the game. Early in the contest, the announcers would say, "Holy cow! They're really letting them play tonight!" If they only knew...
Are the Mavs going to lose the Clippers? :-\
Mavs trailed Utah 67-52 going into the 4th quarter tonight.
They won by 11, 96-85.
26 point swing in one quarter. Most NBA teams struggle to score 26 in one quarter.
edit: the recap isn't up on ESPN yet, but my quick reading of the play-by-play says Nowitzki scored 29 points in the quarter himself. :o
You didn't even post after the Mavs beat the Lakers. I think you secretly jumped the ship.
When I pull him in the bathroom, he pulls his pants down, I was like, whooa. Yeah, and so I ran and started screamingAnd she calls herself a pornstar!

I know you find it easy to post after every one of your team's wins, but it's not as easy when my team wins more than one game a month. :drake
How 'bout those...nm, Winnipeg doesn't have a team
lol sixers. The Elton Brand trade has to be one of the dumbest trades ever
AI is a joke.He doesn't realize that he's 34.
Anyone know of a good site to stream games for free?http://veetle.com has streams in HD, but the selection of games is sometimes patchy. Otherwise I just use http://atdhe.net and http://myp2p.eu (http://myp2p.eu), but the quality generally sucks.
Oh look, Nowitki is being godly and bailing out the Mavs againBased on the line-up the Mavs had on the court, I'm not sure why he wasn't triple teamed.
I know! I made that second post right as Nowitzki was left wide open for the transition 3. Shit was ridiculous. Duncan looked like he was going to cryOh look, Nowitki is being godly and bailing out the Mavs againBased on the line-up the Mavs had on the court, I'm not sure why he wasn't triple teamed.

I wonder if it had anything to do with Charles and Kenny talking shit about him all night yesterday.

The NJ Nyets are on their way to 0-14. What's the record for worst start to a season?

Abe Pollin R.I.P.
Best D.C. sports team owner.
I didn't know this until a year or two ago, but apparently he knew Yitzhak Rabin personally, and Rabin's assassination was the tipping point for changing the franchise's name.
He paid for his own arena rather than soaking the taxpayers, and re-committed to the city when it was still a big clusterfuck. Very loyal to the community.
Also, when Arenas and Jamison made the all-star team he rewarded them with cake. What's not to like?
:drudge DANCING CAREER ON HOLD :drudge
Greg Oden is likely done for the year. He fractured his left patella against Houston tonight.
Landry was taken to the emergency room and will see an oral surgeon today to determine the extent of the damage. Nowitzki needed 30 minutes for pieces of Landry’s teeth to be removed from his elbow.

Arenas suspended indefinitely, Wizards set team for fire sale. Any takes for Jamison and Butler?
“Former Wizards coach Eddie Jordan and his staff privately intimated they felt undermined by Grunfeld when it came to matters of discipline with Arenas. Arenas, a notorious practical joker, often crossed the line of acceptable decorum. The example often cited was how Arenas once defecated in teammate Andray Blatche’s shoe during Blatche’s rookie season. His behavior often went unchecked and unpunished, said a former team employee on condition of anonymity.”
Kevin Durant for MVP! :rock

But he's amazing for a bust--right PD?
There wasn't even a halftime act.

Maybe they're his daughters?
I have League Pass, too. The quality is pretty bad, at least compared to MLB's streams.
sorry, I haven't even tried. I don't mind watching in front of my computer, especially with the lame resolution NBA.com offers.
Taking pics of his dick is the only thing he can do without blowing out his knee.

The Cavs have incredible depth this year. As long as they stay healthy they should coast to the Finals. The Magic miss Courtney Lee big time and Dwight Howard just isn't enough to dominate a game.
Trade sending Wash Butler for Dallas Howard could be going down soon, a source told Y! Sports.http://twitter.com/SpearsNBAYahoo/status/9030601820
The Mavericks have reached a tentative agreement to send Howard, Drew Gooden and two other players to Washington for swingman Caron Butler, center Brendan Haywood and guard DeShawn Stevenson, numerous NBA sources said Friday.http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/spt/stories/021310dnspomavstrade.10ffd1520.html
A hard salary cap is probably the worst idea the NBA has ever had.Actually, the kind of trade the Mavs and Wizards just pulled off probably wouldn't happen much if there was a hard cap. No team would have the necessary space to take on added salary (the Mavs are way over the soft cap figure).
Exactly.Since Cuban likes to spend money, the system works for mavs fans like me. Washington fans might like the change.
Plus a lot of teams would be completely fucked every year if they couldn't use something like the midlevel exception to fill an immediate need.I suppose any hard cap could have a hardship exception.
And does anyone really want a league where teams can't go over the cap to re-sign their own stars?Hasn't stopped NHL teams from keeping their star players: Pittsburgh has kept Crosby and Malkin; Vancouver has kept the Sedins; Detroit has kept Datsyuk and Zetterberg; Washington has kept Ovechkin. Teams just need to plan better.
Sucks the Cavs might wind up winning the championship without Z now. He trucked through some truly horrible seasons of losing and injuries before LeBron revived the team.
I can't believe we're shipping to Jamison to the Cavs of all teams. That one hurts.
This is worse than the Pau to L.A. trade.
At least Memphis got a great center in Marc Gasol when they made that trade.
The Mavericks have really been rolling since they traded Howard [who is now out for the season :lol] and threw Dampier under the bus.
Dirk Nowitzki garned the Western Conference's Player for the Week award.
It's his second of the year and 12th of his career.
Nowitzki led the Mavericks (39-21 overall) to wins against Indiana, L.A. Lakers, Atlanta and New Orleans. The 7-footer averaged a league-best 31.8 points (.548 FG, .667 3FG, .971 FT), including 12.0 points in the fourth quarter, to go with 8.3 rebounds and 3.3 assists. He made 33 of his 34 attempts from the free throw line and saw a streak of 41 consecutive makes snapped in the third quarter of Sunday's New Orleans game.
The Mavericks have really been rolling since they traded Howard [who is now out for the season :lol] and threw Dampier under the bus.But when he comes back, he won't see a lot of playing time. Haywood has been very impressive. What a lopsided trade.
Brendan Haywood's been one of the most underrated players in the league the last few years.
I think I was the only fan in DC to wear his jersey to games. One time someone walked down a few rows just to ask me why.
13 wins a row. :patelWas sorta hoping the Nets would hold on to their lead for the lulz, but Celtics going 0-2 against the Bucks and the Grizzlies is more than enough schadenfreude.
