Because Fluid 41 hates the Blazers and Brandon Roy.

You guys are really cool.

GuerillaBlack · 03-03-2009, 04:11 PM

TheMaverick · 03-03-2009, 04:12 PM

Lets go Magic....lets go...

MaVs 41 BaLler · 03-03-2009, 09:32 PM

Hedu is so clutch.

Suns lose.

TheMaverick · 03-03-2009, 10:05 PM

Phoenix lost.
Denver just lost.

Now, we just need the Rockets to lose. Houston is tied with the Raptors late in the third.

ghazi · 03-03-2009, 10:26 PM

To think we'd be the 3rd seed if we just swept the teams we were supposed to sweep (Grizzlies, Thunder, Kings, Clippers).

TheMaverick · 03-03-2009, 10:38 PM

^ lol

there's a good chance the rockets will lose tonight to the jazz in utah.

alby · 03-04-2009, 12:16 PM

Hopefully the Rockets can keep with their winning ways, I would love to see them choke away the first round as the #2 seed in the conference.

As long as the mavs are the team thats sweeping away the rockets then im in.

GuerillaBlack · 03-04-2009, 07:32 PM

I tend to think that the Rockets are better than the Mavericks. Maybe that's because I'm a fan of the Rockets and not the Mavericks, I don't know.

(please detect the sarcasm)

Dim499 · 03-05-2009, 12:30 AM

Another crazy bs bail out call to gift the Blazers the win vs the Pacers.

Why oh why does the NBA allow this to go on?? I don't blame anyone who hates the NBA.

dude1394 · 03-05-2009, 11:03 AM

It was a VERY good move for denver to get Billups. Someone with some sense to deal with the Carmelo wack-job.

DENVER -- Nuggets star Carmelo Anthony says he wishes George Karl would have kept his insubordination a secret but promises next time his coach tries to sub for him, he'll sprint right to the bench like a kid lunging for an empty seat at musical chairs.

"I'm going to run. I'm going to run to the bench. I'm going to run hard to the bench," Anthony pledged Wednesday after practicing with the team for the first time since his one-game suspension for refusing to come out of Denver's game at Indiana on Sunday night.

Anthony, who had been mired in a shooting funk, had just hit a couple shots late in the third quarter against the Pacers and said he felt his hot hand merited his staying in the game, so he refused to be subbed for Linas Kleiza.

Karl was incredulous.

"There was not much anger there. It was more of a shock when it happened," Karl said Wednesday. "We sat down and decided that was kind of the mantra of our season, to be more focused, more disciplined, more professional.

"And that crossed the line," he said.

So, after conferring with the team's brain trust, Karl suspended Anthony for the Nuggets' game Tuesday night at Detroit.

Anthony watched the Pistons' 100-95 win from the team hotel, rejoined his teammates afterward for the flight home and then met with Karl before Wednesday's workout.

"It was just me wanting to be in there, wanting to play, wanting to finish that run that we just had," Anthony explained in his first public comments about the incident. "... If I was wrong, I was wrong. I don't think I can be wrong for wanting to win a basketball game and trying to help my team win."

Karl said there was a thin line between passionate play and insubordination and his star player crossed it by crossing the coach.

"I didn't want to come out," Anthony said. "If you look at it that deeply, then yeah, I maybe was wrong. I should have come out of the game, but if you're a basketball player, you know how you feel when you get something going finally and you're about to sit, your competitiveness all comes out."

go denver

fluid.forty.one · 03-06-2009, 12:35 AM

The block the Birdman had on Rudy was one of the most vicious blocks I've ever seen.

fluid.forty.one · 03-06-2009, 08:22 PM

LeBron is playing like crap so far.

GermanDunk · 03-06-2009, 08:40 PM

Nice Eddie

GermanDunk · 03-06-2009, 08:41 PM

Another Eddie

GermanDunk · 03-06-2009, 09:34 PM

Devin Harris. 25 points, 9 As, 5 Reb. Well done.

fluid.forty.one · 03-06-2009, 09:59 PM

and his team loses again

LonghornDub · 03-06-2009, 10:59 PM

Houston gonna beat Phoenix. I guess that's good.

TheMaverick · 03-06-2009, 11:26 PM

Houston without T-Whack is a totally different team.

twistaeffect2004 · 03-06-2009, 11:31 PM

Our boy Pops Mensah Bonsu made his debut for the Toronto Raptors after being waived by the Spurs. Put up a decent line in only 14 minutes of play.

4 points/10 rebounds

I'm not sure why he hasn't been able to stick with a team. He's obviously a project, but he's got the tools to be a good player. I hope he does well in Toronto, and they give him a fair shot at it.

I feel just a little bad for Phoenix. They've lost three close games in a row on the road that they could've won. We would be in trouble as it relates to our playoff chances if the Suns had a healthy Stoudemire on their team. The firing of Porter seems to have rejuvenated them and they still have a good team, but not having their best scorer is too much to overcome. Diaw would have helped them now which illustrates one of the problems of the Richardson for Diaw/Bell deal: Richardson is nice to have, but giving up two regular rotation players and thus sacrificing some of your team's depth really hurts the Suns now that one of their starters is injured.
