What a surprise...
 
Bulls win the Lottery

First there was the fixed Ewing lottery

then the phoney Gasol trade (no one can be that dumb can they)

Now the Bulls get the fixer special

You do need it

If it was fixed, why Chicago instead of NY? Admittedly, when they announced Chicago had won it, it was my first thought too. Until I remembered that NY was in it. And NJ.

How about the fact that the T-wolves never win the lotto lol?

It was very reminiscent of the year that Shaq and 'Zo were the far and away top 2, and the Wolves got the 3rd pick that year too... and got Laetnner lol.

****. I don't trust Kevin McHale to get the 3rd best guy either. They draft Brook Lopez, and watch O.J. Mayo be a ****in stud while Lopex ends up being a bust...

I think LeBron would end up with the Nets, who are for all intents and purposes, a NY team anyway. So maybe. I would have thought last year was the best time to fix something though because the consensus opinion was that Oden is going to be a franchise changer.

I think Chicago is going to blow this pick though. I don't think Beasley or Rose fits with them. I think they'll go with Rose though.

The Nets are not the Knicks. Not even close. David Stern knows how to manipulate this.

Good...tell them to get a building ready for icon painting.....and to start buying large lots of rims for all the 3 point clangers he'll be heaving.









Oh----get rid of anyone who pouts if they don't get 5 shots a game.


They'l just be in the way.

Very true lol.

I think honestly the 3rd pick was the worst pick to get in this draft. Especially if you're a fan of a team with Kevin McHale making all of the personnel decisions. What sucks is, there's 2 top-tier guys, and then a blob of equal, but more mediocre talent after. AND I DON'T TRUST MCHALE TO MAKE THE DECISION ON WHO THE "BEST OF THE REST" IS AFTER BEASLEY AND ROSE. I wish the Wolves had pick 5 or 6, so that way a few guys would be taken so McHale wouldn't have to think as much lol.

As Wolves fan, I think McHale has been doing what he did in that Cheers episode while making personnel moves for the Wolves- He was really just too distracted counting the bolts in the Boston Garden floor.

They actually televised it again...

A virtual wall of action and suspense
washed over the viewer as NBA
executives could actually be heard
sweating.

I would prefer a nine hour Catholic
Mass in Latin.

Every atom in my body came to
rest; But time inexplicably moved
forward most grudgingly.

The physical level of absolute
boredom has finally been achieved.
Congrats to Stern and ESPN.

Get your broom out pgardn, cause the Lakers are going to SWEEP your precious Spurs.

$100,000,000,000 just got dumped on the Spurs.

Mortimer 05-21-2008 07:01 PM

All of Saudi Arabia's wealth has just been placed on the Spurs.

Mortimer 05-21-2008 07:02 PM

Trainloads of Spurs money are being shipped to Las Vegas.

Mortimer 05-21-2008 07:03 PM

God just put 5 galaxies on the Spurs.

Mortimer 05-21-2008 07:05 PM

Kobie Bryant has just put 500 large on the Spurs.

Mortimer 05-21-2008 07:07 PM

Arnold Rothstein just rose from the dead to place 2,000,000 on the Spurs.

Cannon Shell 05-21-2008 07:27 PM

I got the spurs for $20

Horry will probably take out Kobe's legs.

Mortimer 05-21-2008 08:46 PM

Boy will his wifes legs be jealous.

IrishofNDMan 05-21-2008 10:54 PM

has to be pretty deflating for the Spurs.

GO LAKERS!

They probably would like to have won.
But they have had these kind of things
happen in the playoffs and reg. season.
Cockroach is fairly accurate.

Kobe was incredible though.
I really never liked the guy
but he has shown a lot of guts
and a much better feel for the game.

Since we can always look for someone,
something to blame, I have to ask why
Oberto, Thomas and Horry barely played
in the 2nd half? Pop will have to explain this
and report to me.

Some of the fans here are all over the refs
but that is a bad excuse. We know it
is a uphill fight with a team like this at home.
Quit crying like babies I say.

I await the rest of the series. Hopefully the
Spurs get out of their rocking chairs and
play a full game.

Trouble.
Ginobili has no lift,
no acceleration.

We got two guys who make
plays from out front, Parker
and Ginobili. One is not a threat
as of now.

Gotta be a bit lucky in avoiding
injuries to win a playoff. Unless
some miracles are worked on
that ankle...

God you are consistent.



Kobe is awesome.
He goes off at any time.

Took the Spurs a great game
from Ginobili and solid from Duncan. Parker
was merely OK. The Spurs have
much less room for error than the
Lakers.
Ginobili is still not the same player physically.
He shot incredibly well. Ginobili is a short time
NBA difference maker. Takes way too much
punishment.

good development for the Spurs

Brent Barry may be up to game speed.
The old passing was there, the shot was there
and they played him at point. His game speed
is slow, but his reaction time, and feel for the
pace on passes is back. Just terribly slow on D.

Are you serious.

After that PM, your are serious?
Tell me you are not serious
unless you want to back yourself
into a mess again.

The guy who actually posted how
another poster would love to be in
his shoes, and you call me a wannabe?

You are frkkn amazing. How may times
do you want to get beat up?

Was that PM a lie?

Wake up.
It already happened.
You got in over your head.
The entire board read it and
I did not take any pleasure
in it.

Just joking...righto.

Yes.

Do we need to go through it
again? Tell me if you thrive on
this stuff and I will oblige you.
