Manny Goes Boom

Hopefully Beckett can pitch like he did against New York in 03. If healthy, his Fastball is like a billion miles an hour and his curve is very strong as well. Nice trade, I wasn't sure at first but I wasn't completely up to snuff on Hanley anyway. Lowell is nice as well and I believe last year was a fluke. Hes a much better baseball player than that.

I brought up Madden thats why, LOL. Anyway I like my NBA Live so Im going to stick to that.

I can't speak, I've only played EA for hoops, and just this year for baseball and of course Madden.

True they are. But Phoenix should have beaten Detroit when they played them WITHOUT Amare earlier this year. With the Spurs, its gotta be more than Amare otherwise we lose and they win. And your right, it doesn't help that they have Finley (and Van Exel).

My computers being retarted. I tried...if that could be like clicked on and JUST the picture of it would be there it would work

Welcome

OH, ok. Makes sense. Still an awesome thing to do.

I agree with you that it prob was on rookie, cause on All-Star the Pistons are HARD, and the Suns as a team are a 91 and the Pistons are a 90. Anyway... Amare was at 26 ppg. JJ was an integral part to the Suns no doubt but hes been replaced and forgotten. Q also was a nice shooter for us, I miss him more than JJ (ONLY because JJ wanted out and that made Suns fans angry) but given time James Jones will become an elite shooter and Raja Bell is a good shooter from area-code distance as well, and on top of that he's a upper echelon defender too. The Suns with Amare can run with the Heat beat the Pistons but the Spurs would be the problems, as they were last year.

Word, what a guy is right. Yours SHOULD be waiting for you in your mailbox 26 to 6. I live in AZ and I got mine yesterday, and I'm a whole lot farther away from him than you are. So go check bro.

Welcome to the boards, don't forget to introduce yourself in the Intro threads.

I love that we've gained respect after last season, but without Stoudemire we are not great like last year. We're a good team but theres chemistry issues and theres also the obvious issue. Hopefully we are only a few games out when he returns (at 100% or he should NOT at all, but saying he is at 100%) and we roll the rest of the way and win the Pacific again.

Yeah but in that respect I had to vote for my hometown player (even though he frustrates me SOOOOOO much) I still had to. Plus I wouldn't vote for people like Kobe and Tim Duncan (if I had to I would have voted for an injured Amare Stoudemire over Duncan)

So, should we make a thread to show what we got??? Thanks again Cape. Your awesome.

The Elf came to my mailbox today. I'm amazed. Rick you are an AMAZING person with a unbelievable generous heart. I very much so appreciate what you gave me and will enjoy them to their fullest capacity. Thank You SOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!! :thumbsup:

I voted. LMAO I couldn't pick a Center for the West so I picked Kurt Thomas.

Guys, its over. Can't change their minds, the decision is made and thats that. I don't like the outcome but whatever. Arguing over it is dumb. They both had great years. I would have voted for Ortiz, but whatever.

LMAO. A pair of scissors???

So true. And the Reggie Miller calls at MSG he made when he called games for NBC. I wish NBC got NBA back, they owned. Best theme music. Best announcers, (or at least the funnest to clown ), and always had games on Saturday or Sunday (sometimes triple-headers). Those were a staple in my house when we had family barbecues.

How do you like the Hawks NOW Joe Johnson?!?!?!?

LMAO! "...Welcome to the Office Depot Arena for the home opener between the Minnesota Timberwolves and the LA Clippers!!!" :lol: Ours isn't as bad as I thought it would be.

Oh word. Ok thanks for clearing that up.

The Suns Change the name of Amreica West Arena, To US Airlines Center, effective around January 1st. http://aol.nba.com/suns/news/release_arena_051114.html

Granted, I don't want to read this whole thread but I have to say that I was mad that Pedro left for a little while but I'm very much over it and I don't remember ever badmouthing him. I still view him as my favorite pitcher in baseball, and have tremendous amounts of respect for his time in Boston. Hes one of the great pitchers of all time and I will still root for him when he plays anyone (except the Red Sox).

Killing time? Yeah like 30 minutes...Geez
