round 1: mavs vs hornets

[hsandhu]

Suns gave up a 30 year old malcontent for shaq, dallas gave up a 25 year old very good pg prospect plus a ton of cash and picks (oh yeah a decent center in diop).

It's not like giving up marion messes up our potential rebuilding, giving up harris does.

 

[TucsonDevil]

Crap... sad to see NO take a 3-1 lead, mostly because I don't like Chris Paul. BTW, another reason not to like CP3 - they compare him to Isiah Thomas! I absolutely hated Isiah.

Here is to hoping the Mavs can rally for three in a row...

 

[Suns_fan69]

Kidd with an absolutely mind bogglingly dangerous play. He did get ejected for it but I wonder if the league will take further action. I doubt it but in my mind it warrants at least a look by Stu Jackson.

Come to think of it I believe they review all flagrant fouls anyways.

 

[D-Dogg]

How in the ef do you not like Chris paul???

 

[nashman]

Cause CP3 is a little crap talking a-hole, he can ball his ass off and hes a great player, but a little a-hole none the less.

 

[D-Dogg]

wow. just wow.

Completely agree. Dude is a class act off the court and an absolute stud on it. I mean he's 22 and has almost no flaws as a pg.

So what if he's ruthless during the game it's just because he's a competitor. It's not a kobe case where his teammate are scared of him blowing up, his teammates love him.

[D-Dogg]

Well unless you are Julius Hodge, I don't think that counts as a reason.

Also, Paul handled that quite well.

 

[nashman]

Donald have you watched him play? If you can't see that he is a little smack talking jerk I am not sure your really watching. He talks too much and I have seen him push guys and all kinds of childish BS behavior, not like he behaves like Nash or someone on the court. He carries himself like a little streetballer thug and sooner or later one of these big guys is gonna level him. I have seen him talk smack and push Amare and other big guys. Like I said he is a great player would love to have him on my team but he still carries himself like a little smug prick.

Wow.

No, I don't see that. And yes, I watch him play. I enjoy watching him play. I was a PG and I love great PG play...and I don't see a smug streetballer thug prick.

Wow.

 

[nashman]

Watch him more closely then.. I like CP3 as a player just don't care for his attitude and antics on the court.

 

[mojorizen7]

Damn, what would it take to get Brandon Bass in a SUNS uniform?

 

[DeAnna]

I have to agree with Nashman -he's a bit to "thuggy" for my taste. Wasn't he the one that during the NCAA finals kneed a shooter in the groin?

 

[LV-Suns]

Yes, a punch to the nuts is the way to settle it.

a punch

 

[Proteus]

Mavs in deep trouble...down 97-92 with 38.7 seconds left in the 4th quarter. Mavs have the ball.

 

[GorrilaLips]

Why does it always seem that I picture stackhouse with some kind of farmer's straw in his mouth...when in reality it's just gum he's chewing with his mouth open.

 

[mojorizen7]

Mavs only trailing by 3 with 30 sec to go.

 

[LV-Suns]

its over

 

[mojorizen7]

Trade proposal:
Avery Johnson/Brandon Bass
for
Mike D'Antoni/Leandro Barbosa

 

[GorrilaLips]

The look on Mark Cuban's face...priceless.

I'm not rubbing anything in, I just don't like that guy.....and they keep focusing on him.

Face it, The Hornet's are a far superior team, hand's down.

Now, with SA and The Suns....it's not even that far apart in terms of whose better, I would say from SA's experience, they edge the suns out just a little bit. But as far as the Mavs and Hornets...they are spaced far apart with the Hornets being on top.

 

[jagu]

Nice try Mavs. That's a team I enjoyed watching. Good luck next year and get some help for Dirk!

 

[LV-Suns]

Wish we had an owner like Cuban.
