Again, just because there's three guys in the general vicinity does not make it a triple team. And I'll have to see the replays here, but at full speed, it looked like Oden just got a gift of a call. That should've been a charge, based on the first look.

Oden's in foul trouble very, very early. When is this guy NOT in foul trouble?

Jordan NEVER had to play the Celtics dynasty -- or a team that was anywhere near the Celtics class. We're talking about the greatest dynasty of all-time. Like I said, those Celtics had about 10 or 11 hall of famers playing on them over that stretch. He didn't win any Championships when Kareem and Magic were together in LA, when the Celtics were great in the 80's (Jordan won his first title in Bird's last year, I believe) and they he couldn't beat the Bad Boy Pistons until they started to succumb to old age -- no other team in the 90's comes close to any of those teams. Besides, Scottie Pippen was named an all-time top 50 NBA player.

Of course they would. The players themselves are more athletic -- fine. If every pitcher of Babe Ruth's era was alive and had the same exact 'stuff', or abilities, as they did in their prime, how many of them would even sniff the Minor Leagues? He's still the greatest of all-time. Athletes have gotten better over time -- that's common knowledge -- but there's something to the fact that nobody's ever been as dominant as Wilt Chamberlain. Redsoxrules, look at all the stats. His assists went up, his FG attempts went down, and his FG percentage went up.

But size is just part of the equation in basketball. When I say he's the best ever, I mean when he played, he dominated the opposition like no other player has since -- no player has come close, even. Rules were put in for the sake of competition against him. And the guy played against Bill Russell, the premiere defensive player of the time, about 12 times a year. I'm 20, so I've never seen him play, I'm just going off of accounts that I've read, seen, etc. But all things considered, he dominated his time like nobody else. And Kilo, you know that comparing the athleticism of guys then to now doesn't hold any water.

There weren't any great NBA players in the 60's? News to me... He only had to play against guys like Elgin Baylor, Bill Russell, Oscar Robertson, Nate Thurmond, Bob Pettit, Walt Bellamy, and Willis Reed. Those were better than the big men we've had in the league for a long time.
-
I definetely understand what you're saying. But Reggie Miller in MSG -- oh man. He's got some all-time great performances there.

There were, like, 12 hall of famers on the Celtics during that dynasty. It was hardly all Bill Russell. You can't fault the guy for playing in the same era as the greatest dynasty in professional sports history. Think about how insane 50 points and 25 rebounds a game for an entire season is.

Doesn't matter anyway because Wilt > Jordan
-
Ahh, figured it was one of the two. I had Texas losing to Kansas in the championship game so they screwed me over too.
-
Wisconsin? My champ fell to UCLA just recently. But my bracket was ripped to shreds well before that. Texas A&M, Wisconsin, and Texas losing early killed me. Acie Law IV can hit a turn around, fade away, NBA range three pointer over three defenders if the games on the line -- but a layup? He leaves it short. I think I only managed to pick two upsets in the first two rounds right... and they're the upsets that just about everyone had. VCU over Duke* and Winthrop over Notre Dame. And I'd be a god dam genius if it wasn't for Ron f***in' Lewis. *Automatically makes it a great tournament, no matter how bad my bracket was
-
But what about the struggles he's had in just about every other tourney game? And the foul trouble he's constantly in? Even today, when the refs were letting em play down compared to the ticky tack fouls they were calling in the backcourt and such? The guy's great... but why aren't their any posts about how bad he played after he struggles? He's going to make a team very happy for a long time, but let's face it, the guards are the reason OSU is still alive.
-
Know the biggest reason why the Heat won the Finals last year? 42 36 43 36 They won the NBA Finals on the back of some great, great performances by Dwyane Wade. Penny Hardaway was an All-NBA First Team player the year they went to the Finals. Shaq has had a top 5 guard everywhere he's played at. Give Kobe a great big man to work with and we'll talk.
-
He didn't just do it with others. He did it with another great player and a much better supporting cast than he had with the Lakers. Alonzo Mourning coming off of the bench. Kobe hasn't had anywhere that good of a team around him. You'd have to add someone like Chris Bosh to the current Lakers roster for that to be even close to a fair comparison.

Well, I think in some states in can take up to two hours between getting arrested and getting an actual Breathalyzer. Depending on how long before being arrested you stopped drinking, you can either sober up considerably in that time, or if you had been drinking up until not long before the arrest, get drunker as the alcohol gets into your blood system.

42 points in the third quarter against the Hornets. This guy is lights out.
-
No doubt. They got screwed last night against the Bulls, though. Blake hit a three at some point, but it was called a two. But it was very clearly a three and the officials never bothered to look at the replay. Nuggets lost by one on a tip in with .2 seconds left. But whatever, not that big of a deal since the end of the game would've played out differently, I'm sure. This team is so inconsistent.

I was going to send the money today but I learned I don't have any stamps... The money will be sent, though. I promise.

Ohio State sure does look like last years UConn team...
