WAR CLEVELAND!

[HendoStu]

Which team has the most black people?

[AMERICAN BONES]

cleveland will win, which will piss me off a little since ive started to hate lebron this year, i hope at least once noah knocks the shit outta him before we get swept out, i used to like bron alot but he seems to be turning more and more into a prick

[babyboneswordsman]

i got the rockets

[JihadMeAtHello]

It's the Pacers year no doubt

[SexeCute]

Same boat as Americanborn. I watched LeBron play this year against the Bucks and every game he would taunt and act like a total jackass.

I see the Mavericks and Magic in the finals.

[SuperNatural]

Lebron's a fucking bitch, it will be fucking awesome if the cavs dont make to the finals

[SexeCute]

Lakers are crushing the Zombie Sonics.

[Kimo Therabones]

[AMERICAN BONES]

joakim is the shit

Noah, Chicago’s outspoken center who called Boston’s Garnett “a dirty player” and ripped this city for not being up to his entertainment standards, said Monday that he isn’t concerned about the rude reception he’s certain to get before Monday’s Game 2 against the Cavaliers.

“I don’t care,” Noah snapped as he walked to the Bulls’ team bus after shootaround. “At all.”

Noah slipped out the door while a mob of TV cameras and reporters waited on the Quicken Loans Arena court to hear what else he might have to say about Cleveland or Garnett. Noah was expected to address the media throng but an interview with TNT ran long and he avoided the crowd.

As he hustled to join his departing teammates, he was asked if he was aware he was being harshly criticized for his comments.”

“People slamming me because of my comments?” he said to The Associated Press before turning to a Bulls media relations person for assistance.

“What you think, Sabrina?” he asked. “You like Cleveland? Be honest. See? She knows.”

On Sunday, Noah said: “I don’t know about Cleveland, man, there is nothing going on. It’s bad, man.”

He was then asked if his dislike motivates him.

“What, that Cleveland really sucks,” he said.

Noah’s comments about Cleveland have further angered Cavaliers fans, who have grown to dislike Chicago’s outspoken big man. In a game earlier this season, Noah took exception to LeBron James(notes) dancing on the floor and had a heated exchange with the league’s reigning MVP.

Noah’s teammates have come to accept him speaking his mind and being treated as an NBA villain.

“That’s Jo,” shrugged guard Derrick Rose(notes). “He’s just trying to win. That’s the way he plays, the way he talks. You always know he’s in the room. It makes all of us play harder because we know everywhere we go everybody hates him. You love shutting the crowd up, but it’s going to take wins.”

Noah was repeatedly booed during Game 1 and he’s certain to be targeted again in this best-of-seven series, which shifts to Chicago for Game 3 on Thursday.

Several of the Cavaliers were aware of Noah’s rude comments directed toward the city, which were splashed across the front of sports sections and became rich fodder on radio talk shows.

“I’m sorry he doesn’t appreciate Cleveland,” said forward Anthony Parker(notes), in his first season with the Cavs. “My family has enjoyed it. We don’t want him to enjoy the city too much and I think we’re doing our job in Cleveland if he’s not enjoying his time here.”

Cavs center Zydrunas Ilgauskas(notes) has grown found of Cleveland. After being traded in February, Ilgauskas, who was drafted by the Cavs in 1996, could have signed elsewhere but decided to return to help Cleveland win its first NBA title mostly because of the strong bond he has with the city and its fans.

Ilgauskas said Cleveland reminds him of where he grew up in Lithuania.

“A lot of factories, it’s a blue-collar town, good people,” he said. “The weather is the same, the food is similar.”

Would he mind showing Noah what Cleveland has to offer?

“I’m busy,” Ilgauskas said with a smile. “I don’t have much time. Maybe in the summer.”

[California Giant]

Cleveland reminds Ilgauskus of Lithuania? What a ringing endorsement.

[Susan]

what a bunch of haters.

[Raymundo]

joakim is the shit


I hate that faggot

[Raymundo]

I hope the Jazz wins but I know they wont :/

[CensoredToezFlava]

[Kimo Therabones]

Getting my tickets tonight, Cozy.

[SexeCute]

Fucking a!!!! Bucks up 3-2!

[CensoredToezFlava]

TALK SHIT NOW

[pflo]

Hey Armando, you should box up all your nintendo tapes, maybe give them a pre blow so they'll work, and send them to Dirk Nowitzki because hes giving you this series easily. faget.

[babyboneswordsman]

this game could still be lost spurs shouldn't get sloppy

[pflo]

Its over. Rockets would've made it a more competitive series. Rick Carlisle is such a shitty coach, so overrated, I mean what has he really done? Had one good year in Detroit and nothing else. Doesn't even spell his last name right.

[babyboneswordsman]

maybe next year :rofl:

[pflo]

How shitty and lame is this "fear the deer" bullcrap. I'm so sick of it. Honestly, if the Rockets were in the Eastern Conference, none of these two shitty teams would be playing right now. Well maybe one, but not the shitty Fucks. You can agree to that, bsm, I'm sure.

[babyboneswordsman]

if rockets were an east team they'd be in the ECF every year

[pflo]

yup

[SexeCute]

Rockets suck ass and the Spurs can't compete with the Lakers. I think the West is actually pretty weak this year (Blazers, Suns, Thunder, Nuggets, Mavs, Jazz). Mavs always look good on paper before they collapse in the post season.

The East actually has the Cavs, Magic, and Celtics (all three of these would likely beat anyone from the West).

You can't honestly think the West looks good? Other than the Lakers there isn't one team that will perform consistently in the finals.

[JihadMeAtHello]

I live in Milwaukee, faget

Yeah, and you never once said anything about any team other than the packers until the bucks won 2 playoff games, hence bandwagon faget cozy

[SexeCute]

You've just described 95% of sports fans from Wisconsin.

[pflo]

I agree, the West is not as good this year, especially when you have the second best team from last year's not even in the playoffs. But other than maybe the cavs, and its a big maybe, none of those teams have a legit shot against say the top 5 teams in the west.

[SexeCute]

Speaking of bandwagons, I hope the Brewers somehow move from this city. They suck and they fuck up traffic.

[pflo]

Performing consistently is one thing, but they are playing tougher teams in the west. I mean, bobcats, hawks, bucks, heat?

[JihadMeAtHello]

You've just described 95% of sports fans from Wisconsin.

Well they don't come on my forum posting fear the deer videos like MNS posts Lady Gaga videos

[JihadMeAtHello]

lol at the spurs blowing that 22 point lead

[SexeCute]

lol at the spurs blowing that 22 point lead

Spurs are too old to do anything and the Mavs are about as consistent as SAF's favorite MMA fighters. This is surprising?

[CensoredToezFlava]

Yeah, and you never once said anything about any team other than the packers until the bucks won 2 playoff games, hence bandwagon faget cozy

TALK SHIT NOW

Bucks will probably dominate.

[JihadMeAtHello]

We'll see how long you rock that av after they get knocked off this or the next round

[CensoredToezFlava]

LOL. That post was out of nowhere too. I'm a hardcore fan, obviously.

[SexeCute]

Jennings was robbed of the NBA rookie of the year imo

[JihadMeAtHello]

Curry was robbed of the NBA rookie of the year imo

*fickst

[SexeCute]

*fickst

Fuck him and Golden State. That's not even a real team.

[pflo]

Execute is right about golden state, jihad

[babyboneswordsman]

this game could still be lost spurs shouldn't get sloppy

qft

[babyboneswordsman]

im like a profit

[pflo]

lol, my jinxing was a success.

I did it on purpose, I'm pulling for the Mavs.

[babyboneswordsman]

fag

[babyboneswordsman]

lebron is the MVP

[SexeCute]

Cavs look like garbage.

[JihadMeAtHello]

that team's gona be so awful without LeBron, maybe the worst team in the league

[SexeCute]

Probably true Jihad. As soon as he started playing average (average for LeBron that is), they picked it right back up.

[JihadMeAtHello]

FEAR THE DEER (NEXT YEAR)

[Buckner1986]

LOL

[Buckner1986]

Damn, they're getting mopped up. I wanted to bet that game too, but I thought it was tonight.

[Buckner1986]

Giving 7 points is a little high for the Lakers in the late game, me thinks.

[JihadMeAtHello]

Jazz are cans who only perform at home

[Buckner1986]

I bet the halftime line is better than the Lakers by 7.

[Buckner1986]

I don't watch much NBA, though. All I usually bet is the Nuggets overs.

[SexeCute]

I think the Lakers will have an easier time with the Jazz. I don't see anyone stopping Kobe or Gasol.

[Buckner1986]

PAU, RIGHT IN THE KISSER!!!!

:rimshot:

:um:

[Buckner1986]

oldadamwestbatman.gif

[CensoredToezFlava]

GO SPURS GO

[SexeCute]

What the fuck is up with the Spurs? Jesus Christ. Lakers vs Magic

[JihadMeAtHello]

suns v magic would be a fun finals, but won't make Stern happy

[SuperNatural]

Lebron's a fucking bitch, it will be fucking awesome if the cavs dont make to the finals
