Seun: we all knew you had a little sugar in your tank. you need jesus and not mark cuban's loving. am i am shocked at what is happening to the lakers. it seems kobe may need to go back to alpha ball hogging mode. this team shit aint working. |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by Moonstone(f): 6:15am On Dec 21, 2008 |
The team thingy worked for them last season and they were one big happy family but to lose by 2 pts to Heat and then 3 to Orlando magic in a space of 3 days is quite drastic. For crying out loud, Magic outplayed them in the 3rd quarter by 10 points. I just want to know what Jackson is doing about it. The guy might be getting quite old though |

chei, . . .see serious backstabbing, moonstone praying for me to shed tears, tot we were on d same side a while ago, no worries but do u think ur hornets are strong enough to face up to d celts and cavs, it would be better to leave the task to lakers CP3 was on fire!!!!!!he runnin things as for d lakers, lets just see what action jackson will take but i must say, i expected more impact from bynum this season, season is still long so he better buckle up also orlando must be given credit, i've noticed their improvement since, they've definitely stepped up a gear this season and they are enjoying it, they have a well-balanced team |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by Moonstone(f): 6:32am On Dec 21, 2008 |
lai-lai:How would I backstab one of my fave opponents? We were on the same side when Hornets were misbehaving because Lakers and Mavericks are the the only team I can stand in the West apart from Hornets. My Hornets will train themselves. Most of them are young - CP3 only 23 and they have a young dynamic coach. At their prime, they will defeat Lakers, Cavs and Celtics with ease. CP3 is amazing and he showed himself tonight along with Chandler and D. West. Orlando has improved. I give them that. Same with Heat. I see D. Wade is just blazing through with his team. A lot of teams have stepped up this season and it's very encourageing. |

blah blah blah. Iya alakata is at it again. |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by lailai2(m): 8:51am On Dec 21, 2008 |
orloando are kinda different from heat, heat depend too much on wade, when he's off-form, they always lose |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by A40(m): 12:27pm On Dec 21, 2008 |
lai-lai:What is it with y'all and Eastern teams? the Pistons,Pacers,Heat and now Magic! what would happen when you meet the big shots of that conference in the Cavs and the Celtics? You guys should stop talking down on Rondo he had a very good sophomore season forget that he was surrounded by K.G and Pierce he still had to play his part and he did especially if you look at his playoff numbers the fact is he runs transition O and their fastbreaks very well and is also a very good defender for his height of 6'1.Rondo is a very important player for the Celts and could be for years to come |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by Moonstone(f): 5:18pm On Dec 21, 2008 |
H2O2:Dude, back off! Watch some b-ball! Then maybe you'll be welcome here. lai-lai:Yeah but as teams, they have all improved though. That's why I specified D. Wade. |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by bawomolo(m): 5:59pm On Dec 21, 2008 |
jameer nelson is kinda underrated. not a true point guard but he has some heart but i must say, i expected more impact from bynum this season, season is still long so he better buckle up maybe it's a psychological thing after the injury. i still believe the lakers would be the top team by the end of the season |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by doyin13(m): 9:29pm On Dec 21, 2008 |
bawomolo: well jameer nelson has been playing lights out ball this December, and his distribution and control of the game worthy of any ''point guard''. I am happy for him. made noise with delonte west at in the Big Dance with some small school and now doing it big in the Nba. U hit the nail on the head about bynum. seems like a mental thing. |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by lailai2(m): 10:38pm On Dec 21, 2008 |
bawomolo: howard is the kind of guy nelson needs for his style of play well so i ain't surprised, he's stepped up a notch too u probably right about bynum but i see reluctancy in jackson to give him reasonable minutes sometimes, he needs those minutes, lakers needs him to have those minutes hawks dey run things too, they just beat pistons, one of their rivals for playoff positions |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by A40(m): 1:55am On Dec 22, 2008 |
The Pistons have been panyan since they got A.I at this rate they may not make the first 4 seeds if something is done @lai-lai You have still not explained your problems with Eastern Conference teams |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by lailai2(m): 2:13am On Dec 22, 2008 |
oh, wanted to say something about that but it slipped off my mind yeah, its puzzling too but i'll say its probably just a coincidence becos those teams barely have anything in common or it could be the fact that lakers tend to be more focused, trying to prove their superiority over the western conference when playing western teams whatdya think? |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by A40(m): 3:03am On Dec 22, 2008 |
Hmm still i think as the Premier team in the West they still have to make a statement especially after losing to the Celts in last years Finals and talking about the Celts their abominable run continues they have now won 18 straight as it stands now they are really having a go at the Bulls 72-10 regular season record The Cavs are also beating the Thunder and my Mavs beat the Wizards |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by lailai2(m): 8:33am On Dec 22, 2008 |
i really think the celts are playing with that record in mind otherwise they would be cutting us some slack once in a while lets just be watchin |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by A40(m): 1:11pm On Dec 22, 2008 |
The scary thing is unlike the Mavs who had a good record and bottled it up in the playoffs these Celts have actually tasted glory and would probably know how to navigate their way through the East |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by Moonstone(f): 1:38pm On Dec 22, 2008 |
A-40:Ehn? I reject in Jesus' name. Abeg A, quick quick retract those words. If that should happen, I will insist that they should all be tested for steroids! lai-lai:You people should stop saying this now! People like us are praying for them to lose. Y'all are thinking of record. It must not and cannot happen. Hmmmm. . . that would be disastrous. Although they are playing some amazing b-ball. |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by A40(m): 1:59pm On Dec 22, 2008 |
@Moonstone From all looks of thins it seems they are as they have simply refused to lose their percentage is 0.93 or something and from the looks of things they are very very on course |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by Moonstone(f): 2:11pm On Dec 22, 2008 |
A-40:They will crash and burn. After some time, overconfidence will catch them. They have just played 28 games. They have 54 games left to play. I am sure they will at least lose 5 more within the first 3 months of next year. AT LEAST! |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by JeSoul(f): 4:29pm On Dec 22, 2008 |
mehn . . . too much bad belle in here Look people, resistance is futile , just bow now to the supremacy of the Celtics and I promise you won't feel so bad when they raise that trohpy in June Me I don't even care about the breaking the bulls record, and I'm learning not to care about winning streaks . . . side effects from the Pats SB loss. I just want them to stay HEALTHLY and make it into the postseason intact. Davis was in a car accident sunday . . . this yeye snow is just screwing things up. Someone mentioned the Pistons . . . I think they'll get better as the season turns and still be top 4. The Elton Brand deal is not looking so hot right now, dude is out for a month. I considered them a serious threat prior to the season, but they have been disappointing. Iguodala signed the deal but is not producing. |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by chiogo(f): 11:07pm On Dec 22, 2008 |
Rondo played wonderfully last night. who said something again?? Oh aiight. check out them lay-ups man. Hey, everybody is not a 3-point shooter but Rondo sure plays his role nicely. He bagged about 22 points all by his lonesome self. so proud of him!! Shout out to Big baby .::. Get well soon, Celtics ain't the same without you, really. I love that big man. |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by Moonstone(f): 12:20am On Dec 23, 2008 |
All lakers have to do is continue their losing streak for 2 more games and Hornets will be right up there with them. We face them on Tuesday and I'm quite nervous about that. For Denver, Anthony is injured and cannot play the next two games. Maybe they will still be able to rise above this. |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by A40(m): 2:48am On Dec 23, 2008 |
The Pistons do have a problem and they need to sort it out ASAP.The Hawks have improved and the 1st 3 spots are almost a given for Boston,Cleveland and Orlando the 4th spot is probably their best shot and right now it seems Atlanta has other ideas |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by bawomolo(m): 2:55am On Dec 23, 2008 |
Celts their abominable run continues they have now won 18 straight as it stands now they are really having a go at the Bulls 72-10 regular season record abegi let's get further in the season before putting the bulls name in vain. i think they would fade a bit. Iguodala signed the deal but is not producing he and luol deng are in the same league. caddies and not worth maximum money |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by JeSoul(f): 8:36pm On Dec 23, 2008 |
bawomolo:Think again brotha, think again he and luol deng are in the same league. caddies and not worth maximum moneyThey're probably waiting until they're in another contract yr and then they'll start playing hard again. Phil Jackson is complaining about the Lakers schedule . . . played yday, will play today, fly home christmas eve and then face the Celtics next day. My question is this: will he be complaining if the Celtics & Hornets were bad teams? Abeg he should stop setting the table of excuses why they'll lose come thursday Every team in the NBA plays 3games in 4nights etc, every team has their stretch of a "tough schedule". Please no whining in basketball. |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by Moonstone(f): 9:10pm On Dec 23, 2008 |
JeSoul:What is wrong with that man sef? LOL! He's just hating jare and looking for excuses in advance. Some teams have relaxed schedules now but will be more hectic towards the end. The way I see it, they should thank their stars for this. Let him complain well, no amount of complaints will change the schedule. |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by onyinye2(f): 9:12pm On Dec 23, 2008 |
Hey yal. . . . . been awhile hasn't it. You know I would drop a lil Rocket spirit right about now but I'm still trying to get over that Lakers losing streak. Mayne my baby Kobe and ko are just aghhhh |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by A40(m): 3:44am On Dec 24, 2008 |
Who would stop Boston and Cleveland |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by shaq32: 7:42pm On Dec 24, 2008 |
Truth be told. i dont c anyone stopping the cavs or the celtics. Lebron is getting better by the second and playing lesser minutes while the celts are just the celts. one hell of a great team that practically has it all. great defense and offense. |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by lailai2(m): 11:57pm On Dec 24, 2008 |
leave them, they'll meet in the final, only one team can win it lakers stepped up against hornets, thought they'll misbehave again |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by lailai2(m): 11:58pm On Dec 24, 2008 |
by the way merry xmas to y'all have a wonderful festive season |
Re: Nba Season '08/09 by Moonstone(f): 2:49am On Dec 25, 2008 |
lai-lai:I don't blame you at all. . . if Peja was on, it would have been a different story. |
