Kobe is not a closer yet the media talks like he is great in late-game situations. Travis Outlaw hits a higher percentage of tying or go-ahead baskets with 2 minutes or less left in a half last time I looked at the stats.

You have them both on your team, who are you giving the ball to?

 

[KingSpeed]

Another moral victory, "they played so hard to make a comeback". Ugh. They suck, guys. Just face it.

Honestly it would switchup per game. Sometimes I would give it to Travis as he is not great but he has one bankable skill. Everyone and their mom knows it is going to Kobe. I remember a few times we used Roy as a decoy and we won with Travis hitting big shots. He couldn't get a crucial rebound but the guy could score when it counts it seemed.

Outlaw. Outlaw is the clutchest player in Blazers history.

They were 15-20 in 02-03 season too. They ended with 50 wins that year, and lost in the semis to SAS.

How about the season Indiana is quietly having...

21-14, .600, 3rd in the East

Paul George: 16.7 ppg, 7.4 rpg, 3.7 apg, 1.5 spg

All-star?

Didn't Shaq sit out the first 30 games or so with a foot injury that year? Hardly the same team with and without him.

No amount of talent can make up for Cousins boneheaded-ness

How 'bout them Heat?!

Come on, he just plays with a ton of passion!

come on now---who *hasn't* wanted to elbow Vince in the throat? In fact, Toronto's fans are lighting up phonecenters calling to trade for Cousins now

If it had been against Boston and he'd done that to KG, I'd be first in line to give him a medal.

It's interesting to look at some of the great Eastern Conference teams' records against the West.

In tonight's much hypes matchup of Eastern Conference powers, you had a New York team that is a mediocre 9-7 against the West facing a Chicago team that is a pathetic 4-8 against the West.

Meanwhile, the team from the East that the media never talks about, the Indiana Pacers, is actually a respectable 10-4 against Western Conference teams.

ESPN needs to get off their New York, Chicago, Boston kick.

.............................

Spurs @ Grizz was a great game as always.

Rudy Gay had the highlight plays, the high scoring total, but also made the bad decisions that caused it to even be a close game in the first place and went 0-2 from the line with the opportunity to ice it in regulation.

 

[Haakzilla]

...Lakers are finished!

Why are you such a little **** face? I know you are trying to quote me, but you are doing it like a little bitch. The only things I have said derogatory towards love is he is a poor defender and does not give 100%. Both absolutely true.

How about you quit being a pompous ***got and go back to sucking cocks and leave the basketball talk to people that are not know it all bullshit artists like yourself.
