Woooow, good one.

Thank you, mr. obvious. You know there are other ways to acheive your goal of 20,067,890,456,341 posts. Try the word association thread...

A little over two and a half hours until the ping pong balls start bouncing... This is without a doubt the biggest day of the past decade for the Boston Celtics. After the ping pong balls screwed us over and Duncan ended up in black and silver instead of the beloved green and white, Celtics fans have dreaded the word "lottery" ever since. Tonight, a dynasty can be reborn with the acquisition of the #1 or #2 pick in this year's draft. Durant or Oden would both be unbelievable additions to next year's team and for seasons to come, joining an already potent frontcourt with Paul Pierce and Al Jefferson. But let's not get ahead of ourself as there is under a 40% chance of getting either the first or second pick, so it's far from guaranteed. Well, tonight is the night that I've been waiting for months and a night that can turn this subpar franchise into a dynasty quicker than the bounce of a ping pong ball. May god be with us...

If we end up with Durant or Oden, I really hope Rivers isn't an ******* by using his philosophy with young players. He better not keep them on the bench because of a defensive mistake or because Scalabrine has been playing well in "practice". Management surely wouldn't allow this but Doc has been known to show his rookie benching ways in frustrating times.

Well, like I said before, hes not nearly consistent enough to have a true impact on the series. He is such a one dimensional player and he will never be a legitimate option down low until he develops that part of his game, and that certainly will not happen during this series against Tim Duncan. Sure, he may come out with a 20 point game or maybe even two this series, but he is not the type of player that can have a huge impact because his abilities are limited.

They did a pretty damn good job containing him today. 4-16 from the field and he racked up a grand total of 6 rebounds...you eating those words yet?

...Autopick sucks, it defeats the purpose of fantasy baseball.

I'm in, thanks for making this.

You should set the table and buy some appetizers because you'll be feasting on those words after this series ends. Mehmet Okur, an overrated streaky shooting big man who can't post up and can barely rack up rebounds and completely benefits from the system he plays in, will have the biggest impact? Please...During the 4 previous games between these two teams, Okur put up 10, 10, 16, and 31, averaging 16 and some change against the Spurs, far from the 25+ that you think he can put up if he "turns it up". There's really nothing to turn up, considering that he is as one dimensional as you will find. The main factor is whether his shot falls or not, and that's very unlikely that he'd practically nail everything and suddenly ditch his streaky ways. After scoring 21 and 23 in the first two games of the Golden State-Utah series, he completely cooled down and put up 15, 14, and 14 for the next 3 games, leading one to question his consistency. In the Houston series in the first round (a series where he saw a lot of Shane Battier), Okur put up the following point totals, 16, 19, 9, 16, 7 (2-12, 0-6 from 3), 4 (2-9, 0-2 from 3) 6 (2-14, 2-7 from 3). To suggest that Okur, who lacks both consistency and a polished all around game, will have the biggest impact on this series that features players like Tim Duncan, Andrei Kirilenko, Carlos Boozer, Deron Williams, Tony Parker, Manu Ginobili is ridiculous. Mehmet Okur will NOT have the biggest impact on this series...not even close.

Ryan Gomes, you are quite the intellectual. My suggestion for you is that you use this "tell it like it is" attitude and become a better leader. Even from your rookie season, you had the skill set and basketball acumen of a wily veteran, so if you can develop better leadership, you can really help make up for the lack of true veteran presences on this young team. Keep up the good work.

Yeah but I was looking at Ryan Gomes' past posts and this came up. Sorry I had to tell your secret.

Obviously soxfan attends hogwarts where still pictures are animated.

Hey Ryan, the celtics aren't paying your lazy ass to fuel your gambilng habit so how about you stay out of the casinos and work on that three pointer that you showed signs of developing towards the end of last season. If you can become a legitimate three point threat, you'd play a much larger role coming off the bench and you'd become a very versatile forward which would be crucial to the Celtics in the 08 playoffs so keep your head up and stay strong, big guy.

First you say that parks have lost the "old style awe" and that you love that kind of ballpark...but then you suggest throwing Fenway park (one of the oldest parks and also one of the greatest places to watch a game) in the Charles River and building a new park... :dunno: .

I felt the same way about Olympic Stadium in Montreal. Everyone talked s*** about it, saying that it was the biggest dump in baseball but I actually thought it was a pretty cool stadium. The structure of it was ill from the outside and it was actually a pretty comfortable place to watch a game if you had seats close to the field.

Out of the ones I've been to, I'd have to say my favorites are Fenway Park Coors Field Safeco Field Citzen's Bank Ballpark in Philly Camden Yards AT&T Park Yankee Stadium I'm going to a game at wrigley this summer and I'm expecting that park to be really nice. Also, PNC Park in Pittsburgh looks sick.
