His post was pretty calm, you need to chill. Especially with the "dead cows" comment.

Played ball down at the park today with my bro and a friend, and some of the local high school kids showed up. They said they were going out for the team next year, and they wanted to play us. We destroyed them, every single game. Buwahaha it was baaad. Granted I'm a tad sore, but them youngin's ain't got nothing on these old bones.

Picked this up the other day for $30 (brand new). It's my first experience of the series, and I have to say I'm in love. Once you get past the first two sequences, the game becomes an open-world experience. So much fun.

You do what's necessary to keep Kobe on your team, period. Good move on Buss to lock Kob' up for a few more years. Kobe's done so much for this franchise, he definitely deserves the money.

The only thing we have going for us right now is that it's a home game...which isn't much.

Yeah, I've been pretty blessed to have the opportunity to go over there. I'll be over there for a little over two weeks (16 days), and I think the flight is 12-13 hours long. That ought to be fun.

My Grandpa is building a bathroom onto his house, so he's been paying me to do all the dirty work for him. I've been so busy lately, I don't think I would have the time for a full time job, so I think some odd jobs here and there will work out better for me. My parents offered to pay me if I cooked an Easter Sunday dinner for us and some extended family, so I'll do that. Not sure how much I'll get, but hey every bit helps.

Call them, and ask if they have had the chance to look over your application. Calling them back lets them know you're interested, and they may give you a second look. If you don't call them back, chances are they'll just toss your application into a pile and forget about it. When I was working at my old job, I got it by calling them back, several times in fact, and asking if they looked at my application yet. Sometimes you just have to pester them a bit.

I ran that thing like like 10 times, and each time it had the Lakers/Cavs in the Finals with the Cavs winning it. Just now it was the Lakers/Hawks in the Finals, and the Hawks won. I think now it's just screwing with me.

Nice...I didn't catch it last night, was super tired. Good prank, but like all April Fool's threads here, I'm gonna have to put a on this one.

Wishing you the best of luck, man. We'll be here...so go get things straightened out. Looking forward to your return.

Not so sure about Van Gundy coming back, so I think it'll be between Mark Jackson and Avery Johnson. I know Mark has been wanting to get into the coaching seat for a while, and with all the potential changes in the off-season, I think he'll get the job.

Sweet stuff big guy.

I'm pretty sure Ben was an admin when Justin was, granted it was for a short time. But yeah, that person is pulling lies out of his arse. It amazes me how people waste their time sitting around trashing a web site. Like really, don't you have anything better to do?

Glad you had a great time man. And you got yourself your own place now huh? Dude, that is awesome. Congrats.

Kobe has quite a bit left in the tank. Granted, he's going to gradually slow down, but he's not going to retire for at least another 6-7 years. He takes such good care of his body, so he'll be around for a long time. But once he DOES retire...well, it'll be a sad day in the league. Hopefully by then the Lakers will have another franchise player lined up, ready to take over.

Posting here is a privilege, not a right. He lost that privilege when he was banned. If someone else is posting replies for him, he might as well not even be banned, controversial posts or not. I'm not going to sit here and deal with his posts. If he wants to debate about this topic...well, that's just too bad. He blew his chance. Don't post for him, period.

Shaq was above-average defensively. He did well in boxing guys out and using his size, but he sucked on pick and roll defense. Kobe was the one who initiated the offense, setting the triangle up. Yes, the ball was throw into Shaq and he kicked it out, but that's only one part of it. The biggest reason why we lost in the 2004 Finals was that the Pistons were constantly doubling and trapping Kobe, which completely disrupted our offense. He had a much harder time getting the ball into Shaq, and the triangle came to a screeching halt. I was a HUGE Shaq fan during the 3-peat. Huge. Even though I've lost a lot of respect for the guy over the years, I'm not denying the fact that he was a major reason for winning those championships. He just wasn't the only reason. Shaq was not the "main" guy. It was a dynamic duo, end of discussion.

Thread cleaned up. Back to the topic, please.

What is it with these road games? Man, its like we suddenly turn into a sub .500 team every time we play on the road, and we either struggle to get the win, and we barely win, or we lose like this. UGH.

He was trying to "prove" that Shaq was the best player in the league during those seasons using 1st place MVP votes. I was showing how flawed that reasoning was. Shaq dominated offensively, yes. There's no denying that. But Kobe ran the offense, played tenacious defense, and still scored his 25 or so points a game. That's not a second fiddle player. There was no "main" guy in L.A, it was Shaq, Kobe, and Phil.

Between the '04-05, '05-06, and '06-7 NBA season, Steve Nash racked up a total of 166 1st place votes. More than Shaq did during the Laker 3-peat. So using Diesel's brilliant logic, Steve Nash is better than Shaq? Nash was the best player between those seasons, because media voters gave him more votes than any other player? LOL. Diesel is forever banned from here, and I don't want to see someone posting for him. Don't do it again.
