I've seen him on NBA 2K6, he's worse.

[YanksHater213]

Man, Marcus Banks is ripping the Clippers apart tonight. I dont know if they have a guy that can defend Marcus...

[Manny Goes Boom]

Suns win! Yes we are rolling well without Amare.

 

I didn't catch much of the game cause I was sleeping (I've been working alot). But I'm glad we won.

[See Red]

And the Nuggets loss! Talk about a roll!

 

Though, I wouldn't feel right bitching about this one -- I didn't watch the game, nor have I seen the box score.

[Manny Goes Boom]

Heh, my 1120th post was at 11:20 PM.

[Moose]

To continue the roll, the Clippers lose, too! Jeez, I'm back with the old Clippers again.

I saw the highlights and Kenyon Martin crammed on Rasho Nesterovic, it wasn't the nastiest but I enjoyed it. Ummm, I think Melo played well again (if I remember right...:dunno: ) and you guys just didn't close it out. 10 pts loss but towards the end of the highlights you were still close. It SEEMED closer than the score indicated.

I'm being told 'Melo had 25.

 

Not bad with the cheap bastard that is Bruce Bowen on him and, I would assume, nobody else on the team capable of making shots.

I won't get started on him, he bugs me so much.

 

Anyway, it looked like Martin had a good night. But probably not much else besides him and Melo.

I just saw last night's highlights. YH, did the Celts change their jerseys? I like their new road ones.

[YanksHater213]

Thats the alternate jersey. Theyre soooo f***ing sick. Im getting one when I go to the game on the 20th.

[See Red]

I like 'em a lot. Though I like their other greens more. I'm all about the classic jerseys.

[YanksHater213]

The green ones are nice too. Im pretty mad because I heard at the proshop, they only have Pierce and Davis in the alternate ones, but I really want a Delonte jersey. So I will probably get the green one...

Are they new alternates? If so that makes sense, make 'em of the two best players and see how they sell, then if they work make em in mass production.

[YanksHater213]

Yeah, they just made them this year. Theyve only worn them twice. 2-0 with them I might add.

[YanksHater213]

Celtics face the Nuggets tonight. Im sure me and stocker will come up with a little friendly wager by the end of the day.

If I were him, there's no way I'd bet on the Nuggets at this point. Ugh.

 

'Melo will put up 35, though.

[YanksHater213]

Yeah, well the Celtics havent been playing the most consistent ball either. Id be surprised if they win this game.

[See Red]

Nuggets are still trying to trade Earl Watson.

 

I'll say this, if they trade Earl Watson, I won't watch another Nuggets game until Kiki is no longer the GM. I'm sick of these idiotic decisions. I'll check the box score only to see how 'Melo did.

Watch what you say. 'Melo wants Artest in Denver and Watson may be part of the deal that gets it done.

[See Red]

I know, lol, but Watson's my favorite! (Melo excluded, because he's the obvious favorite)

Understandable, I was just saying be careful what you say because it COULD happen. Especially if Kiki is as awful as you say. (Can't be that great if he wanted Darko over 'Melo )

... and turned down Redd for Nene when it was obvious that we needed a shooter. I certainly don't like him. There's been a few small things I've liked, like picking up Najera, but I think Karl influenced that a lot. I also liked the signing of Watson (obviously), but if they trade him, that's all nullified.

And didn't you guys JUST sign Watson this past off-season??? Why trade him already...too loyal to Boykins? :dunno:

[See Red]

yep, just signed him. Who knows, I'd much prefer Earl Watson. Good defensive player too, while Boykins is a liability

And Boykins is so small. How could he guard anyone with a super great success rate?

Marion named Western Conference Player of the Week

 

http://aol.nba.com/suns/news/marion_060103.html

 

I'm glad he got this, it shows his stats over the 4 games that the week constituted and he played awesome, and that didn't even include his 39 Points and 14 Rebounds against New York last night. He's the reason we are on top of the Pacific Division right now. Without him we would be mediocre at best.

[See Red]

Very cool, didn't get to see him play at all, but sounds like he deserved it.

Yeah dude, I'm so glad he got some attention. He deserves it. Like last year though, he will probably have to get voted on to the All-Star game by the coaches because the fans vote is so skewed.

[YanksHater213]

Did anyone see the Nuggets game? That last play last night. Where Harris I think it was got wide open after Miller lost him. What a bad way to lose, especially after that amazing shot to tie it by Carmelo.
