2011 NBA Finals: Mavericks vs Heat

[illmatic99]

lol, you almost were first and out, Mark. Portland played you tougher than anyone else.

I wouldn't be surprised if Dirk is bawling his eyes out right now. Totally Dirkulous to run off into the locker room before celebrating in public. You can tell 06 has been eating away at him him mentally, and tonight is finally vindication for him.

He was in the locker room before the game was over, LOL.

 

[KingSpeed]

Fucking fantastic.

So, are we to conclude that the only team that gave Dallas as hard of a time as the team with three of the best players in the game is Portland?

Yes

 

[Mediocre Man]

Was that the least celebration in any championship in any sport by any team? Even though it was on the Miami court, I am surpried it wasn't bigger.

 

[Mediocre Man]

They beat us 4-2, and almost 4-1?

 

[NJNetz]

This feels good.

 

[barfo]

So glad to see Miami lose.

I wonder how Adelman's relationship is with Pat Riley.

 

[Mediocre Man]

JVG is the guy I think he will go after if he doesn't do it himself

 

[illmatic99]

Can you imagine being Ericka Dampier right now?

Dude gets waived by DAL mid season, says FUCK IT, I WANT A TITLE, and signs with MIA, then loses to DAL in the finals.

Are you even a Blazer fan? MIXUM, when did you hack MM's account?

Jason Terry just said Portland was arguably their toughest series

Not as far away as some pessimistic fans think

 

[EGame]

I think I just heard Terry just say we were the toughest opponents for them in the playoffs.

Haha just beat me. I thought I heard that.

Actually he was part of the trade that got Dallas Chandler. Dampier was garbage as a Mav. A complete bum.

You really think that? We have a lot of work to do on our roster. Aging PG/ no future PG, questionmark at center, damaged goods in Roy, no backup PF, and no bench to speak of. Sure we have some good talent, but to be on Celtics, Heat, Lakers, Mavericks, etc level we need a lot of work on our bench and perhaps a clutch player in the 4th.

gull-darned fake twitters!

LeBron when asked about his criticizers:

"They gotta wake up tomorrow and still have the same life they had when they woke up today."

Real quote. Talked about them still having the same problems while he'll be living his great life with his family.

He did not say that.

There haven't been any players in the history of the NBA that I've wished career-ending injuries on (other than Kobe), but I'm willing to consider him.

 

[RoyToy]

He did not say that.

I'm pretty sure it was something real close to that.

 

[illmatic99]

I'm pretty sure it was something real close to that.

Only if you perceived that because you irrationally hate him so much, much like the rest of the country.

He said: "At the end of the day, all of the people that want to see me fail will wake up tomorrow and have the same life, the same problems. I don't care what people have to say because I'm happy with what I've done and they do what they have to do."

And that was a response to one dumbass question after another by the media who were absolutely trashing James and Wade. That interview was quite the spectacle.

 

[RoyToy]

So you're the guy that just has to go against the grain and defend LeBron from himself

What he said was stupid

 

[illmatic99]

lol. Ok

How the hell did you get "living his great life with his family" out of that quote?

 

[RoyToy]

There was more to it than just the quote you provided

 

[RoyToy]

I just listened to it again on the radio

He basically said everything I put in my original post about this

He topped it all off with "They have to go back to the real world at some point"

Basically said his haters will have to go back to their shitty lives, he's still rich and still going to live it up.

 

[illmatic99]

oh jeez. sigh. I guess this quote is going to be the topic of convos for the next 6 months.
