Some slut will speak out today claiming that Kobe raped her.

Celtics in 4.

7 if the slut doesn't speak.

C's in 6. (May change depending on what Winnow's priceless views on this subject are.)

This one's easy.

An East coast team is playing a real West Coast Team.

Lakers in five unless the corrupt NBA rigs it for seven.

Lakers in 7 is my prediction, though I think people are way over stating how much better the Lakers are than the Celtics. Pretty excited for the finals, but I miss basketball being on every day =(.

This sealed the C's in 6. People should start putting cash down in Vegas today. No method out there is more foolproof than the anti-Winnow bet.

I'm sitting here fucking praying that Paul Pierce isn't injured. I'll be fucking livid. All the idiot Boston fans will just point at that and say that's why the Lakers beat the Celtics and it will be total fucking bullshit. The game to this point has been really, really good, and this would be a fantastic series if Pierce isn't permanently hurt.

Fuck.

Kobe is playing some dirty basketball!

Yay for Pierce being back out there.

The Celts are playing some nice D.

Oh man, I love seeing Sam Cassell fuck up. I hate that fucker.

He's made 4 or 5 bad plays in a row.

Memo to the Spurs and Pistons:

This is how you have a competitive defensive minded NBA finals without putting everyone watching to sleep.

Haha. The Winnow curse seems real!

Garnett may be their regular season MVP, but Pierce is going to be their money man in this series. They will indeed win or lose this series depending on when he decides to step up and take it all on his back.

Two things from watching this game:

1) Their defense is just as strong against the Lakers as it was earlier in the year.

2) Pau Gasol cannot defend Garnett.


On a side note, I believe space aliens now have implanted some type of control device into Doc Rivers. That was not the same person coaching as it has been the last 3 years. Discuss.

I think the Lakers shots weren't falling for the bulk of the 4th quarter.

Much of this had to do with the Celtics defense, but not all of it.

I think the rest of it had to do with the leprechauns that have been known to live in the rims of Boston.

Lakers in five.

I didn't realize Paul Pierce was such a drama queen. Who's going to fake an injury next game for some attention whoring minutes?

Didn't you just love the play of they Rocky Theme as he came out of the locker-room?

Shouldn't you be somewhere pimping an Arizona team that still has a mathematical chance at a championship?

They need to jack the heat up in the Lakers locker room to 110 like in the old days!

Regarding my anti-Winnow sports betting theory:

The Suns were a little rusty but they have some depth this year, even though the two rookies didn't get into the game. Phoenix has a great chance to defend their NBA title from last year.

With a few more role players, the Lakers could play the spoiler in the playoffs but I don't think they'd make it to the finals.

may not bode well for the regular season record but the Suns look fine, especially Barbosa who has superstar written all over him this year

Everything looks about right in the West. Suns, Spurs and Mavs all have two losses. It will be those three teams and maybe Houston (although McGrady or Yao will probably get hurt at some point) fighting it out in the playoffs again.

The rankings have pretty much corrected themselves except for Boston in the top spot. That will change.

Boston will be exposed when Dallas, San Antonio or Phoenix plays them. They don't play any of the big three until Jan 31st. That's plenty of time to build up the Boston hype!

Jan 31 Dal 8:00 PM (Boston Loss)
Feb 10 SA 7:00 PM (Boston Loss)
Feb 22 @Pho 10:30 PM (Boston Loss)

Note: that was all from just ONE page. Continuing....

Yeah...here's more...The Suns know they're going to win the Pacific.

Nash = MVP for 4th year in a row

Marion seems happy with it so all is good for this year's run at another title!

Houston remains unbeaten until next Sunday, that's where their streak wll end against the Suns.

See you in the finals if you can get by Detroit!

Phoenix over Boston for the Championship

Winner of New Orleans/San Antonio will be the champs this year.

Finals Prediction:

New Orleans > Detroit

Pistons should make quick work of them. A late pickup of PJ Brown is the only thing keeping the Celtics alive

oops. setback

Since the Celtics can't win on the road, they're done.

hoooo boy

NCF West: Cardinals
NFC South: Saints
NFC North: Bears (but I don't like the pick)
NFC East: Eagles

Wild Cards: Rams, Cowboys

AFC: West: Chargers
AFC South: Colts
AFC North: Ravens
AFC East: Patriots

Wild Cards: Texans, Steelers

NFC Championship: Eagles vs Cardinals
AFC Championship: Chargers vs Colts

Most Improved Team: Houston
Most Overrated Team: Seattle

Superbowl: Eagles over Chargers

hahahhahahahahah
Are you shitting me? The only 3 picks TOTAL you hit on that was the Pats, Colts, and Chargers?

Patriots and Colts appear to be the only teams capable of winning it all this year barring serious injuries.

Phoenix would have won that game last night by 20, using scrubs in the 4th to rest their starters.

Arizona State just won the College Women's Softball World Series (adding to the total domination of the Women Pac Ten championships over the Big Ten (not that the Men's Pac Ten hasn't dominated the Big Ten in NCAA championships as well)

On the men's side:

University of Arizona just beat #1 Miami in the first game of their College Baseball super-regional series.

Arizona state plays tomorrow

Major League Baseball will take a huge bite out of the current Arizona State team today and Friday. The worst part about the amateur draft, though, is what it could do to ASU's future.

At least six players in a critical 24-man ASU recruiting class are considered to be professional-bound because they will be drafted so high - or at minimum will have a tough decision to make before the signing deadline Aug. 15.

Could be an All Arizona series coming up!

Lakers in six.

The Lakers are not going to win another championship with Kobe.

Is it going to be Lakers in 7 after Tuesday's game Winnow?

Need some injuries! I can't really defend the Lakers since I hate them.

Winnow wrote:Lakers in six.

This prediction is looking shaky.

It was painful to watch this series. Lakers and Celtics (besides the Spurs) rank up there as my most hated teams.

I hoping for injuries on all sides from here on out.

Was it painful because there were two teams who style of play was actually successful? Or is it just your angst about the Suns being irrelevant for the next 5 years?

At first I thought it was my TV...but the fucking lighting in Staples Arena during games makes it fucking painful to watch.

So does the NBA have the balls to make sure this goes 7... I bet they do

Even if this does go seven game, I'm so disgusted with the way the Lakers played in the last game, I will not be watching it.

Pherr the Dorf wrote:So does the NBA have the balls to make sure this goes 7... I bet they do

I'm trying to put money on the fact that it does.

On a non-Finals note, apparently the Nuggets are shopping Marcus Camby around. Are they really going to trade the only person on the team who plays defense?

Kobe Bryant is washed up.

He needs to retire.

Let me revisit this post so we can point at Winnow and laugh.

Hopefully no one will notice that the D'Backs lost 15-1 tonight with Webb on the mound.

He leads all the majors with 11 wins. I suppose you can make fun of him for being ahead of any other pitcher you like.

im not, you said he would get 20 wins before the break after I mentioned I had a bet that he wouldnt get 20 wins this season....I never said 'I didnt like him' but unlike you, I dont think he is the second coming of CY

Quote where I said he'd get 20 wins before the break and wasn't asking a question.

Who's your favorite pitcher sparky?

I did not expect the Lakers to go out like that (well, i expected them to win in 7 before the finals started). I thought the Celtics would win game 6 before it started, but I expected it to be close like many of the previous games. Rajon Rando had an absolutely sick game, going 21 - 8 - 7 - 6 (points - rebounds - assists - steals). Really happy for Garnett, a year ago I did not think he would ever get close to a championship.

Atlanta and Cleveland got much closer than LA!

And Detroit got just as close!

But the East sucks though...

Yeah, but fuck Detroit! Actually, they just slipped my mind =(.

The Eastern Conference was so bad they had to prop up the Celtics to make things interesting again. At least the Suns managed to keep entertainment and ratings on a high level in the games they played over the past three+ years. Now the league has the Boston drone fans back to help a little with ratings.

On to the draft!

Prediction: Cheapskate owner sells Suns draft pick for cash again. At least this one won't cost you championships since you still won't be able to beat the Spurs.

It's a given that the Suns will be busted up over the next two years. I think Sarver will actually draft someone for the future this time with the 15th pick. PG would be nice. Some sort of big man would be nice. SF would be nice. Pretty much, every position could use work looking forward so I think they'll come up with a pick they can be happy with. Selling the pick doesn't make sense now they won't be trying to hold the core together and Terry Porter will actually play his bench.

Teams shouldn't draft according to current need, but to a player's potential.

Otherwise, they'll get Sam Bowie instead of Michael Jordan.

The Suns need everything, even a backup PF so I don't see that being a problem. It's more a question of whether they draft for next year or for two or three years down the road. If there's a great PG, it would be a nice pickup for two or so years down the road when they're grabbing free agents with their Shaq/Nash cap money and can look to be competitive again.
