  1. Idk why I said Power Forwards were atrocious earlier that was my bad. Alright Chandler is straight. For some reason I always think he is way older than he really is tho. And no, this is my first professional sports experience. Btw Red-Devil I got mad respect for your knowledge. You've proven me wrong!
  2. This Game 7 is just another example of what a joke the NBA is anyway. I mean, this is supposed to be one of the biggest, more entertaining moments of the season. Game 7, of a conference finals series. And it's about to be a 25-point blow out? Yeah, this is awesome.
  3. The center position is not freaking deep when you can name only five guys that are legitimate. Noah, Gasol, Lopez, and Hibbert are all great centers. Howard is a joke now. Chandler has never been anything more than a rebounder how occasionally blocks and grabs a pass under the hoop and dunks. Why are you even mentioned Varejao, Bynum, and Bogut to back your argument when you said yourself they've been nothing but injured. Splitter is only good because he's on the Spurs, while Birdman is the biggest joke in the league. That leaves only about, four to five actually consistently good centers in a league that holds 30 teams. 2nd deepest position my ass. I'll give up on the parity and superstar arguments, but I still don't like it. Small market teams don't do just fine. Like I said before, they have to lose their ass off for years just to draft a core group of youngsters, which half of the time doesn't work out due to injuries, busts, and lack of getting the final pieces to complete a talent puzzle. The Eastern Conference finish this year is literally all big markets on top, all small markets on bottom (Indiana the exception), while the West is nearly the same thing (except Spurs and Nuggets (both system-built completely different than normal teams)). It's hard to count Oklahoma City in the argument considering they started off with one of the top 5 players to be drafted in the past decade.
  4. I don't disagree on the talent level. I used to watch the NBA all the time, but quit this year because I just don't enjoy it anymore since the whole season is just going to come down to the Miami Heat vs. either the Thunder or Spurs. The talent of guards in the league has never been better, but we're still at a point where the centers and power forwards in the league are absolutely atrocious (unless they can run and jump for an alley oop), so there's no real entertaining big man play like there used to be. It's hard to watch my favorite team, the Cavs, play because they are so bad and the way things are right now means they will never really be good again unless they continually get really high draft picks to pick up poor kids who get stuck in Cleveland, even though EVERYONE only wants to play in a big market like NY, LA, Houston, Miami. I absolutely despise the idea of these "super teams". No free agents want to go to small markets, thus smaller market teams barely have a chance unless they've successfully spent four-five years in the gutter, working there asses off just to get nearly on the same level as a team like Miami or Los Angeles, who just sit there and collect superstars. The amount of parity in the league is atrocious. I live near Detroit, a market similar to most teams in the league, but watching the Pistons is a freakin' waste of time because none of their games mean anything. Even if they were to make the playoffs, they would get the seventh or eighth seed and immediately get swept by an Eastern Conference that's literally nothing but five teams that have a chance to contend for anything. The Western Conference is certainly a lot better, but I've grown up paying attention only to the Eastern Conference so there's never any emotional investment for me watching Western Conference games. The league has turned so superstar-based I can't really stand it compared to the other three-leagues where the idea of a team actually matters. Yeah, that's just a little about how I feel, but I'm a dumbass, so yeah, please ignore me.
  5. So, I'm interested in having a decent debate about a statement he made that is pretty debatable, and you have to come in and be a douche? Damn man, you are cool! How about you don't waste your time, and just sit back and watch me "make a fool of myself". EDIT: so yeah back to respectable conversation: This was great! "Stop floppin! Floppin'-ass n****!" Ugh, I just wish the NBA had a mic'd-up-esque HBO show.
  6. Ha! Good one! I should use that some time! EDIT: seriously tho, I'd like to see your arguments for it. As long as it doesn't turn into a derpurafag-fest.
  7. I wasn't listening, just saw it on the screen on a split second. But I have to add this is gonna be the first full NBA game I'll be paying attention to for the first time all season, besides the front row game I was at when the Cavs visited the Pistons. Such a shame too, I used to love this league.
  8. Game 7's about to start on TNT. They showed a records stat of all the analysts all time record when picking Game 7 winners before the game. Charles Barkley, 2-3. Kenny Smith, like, 3-2. Marv Albert: 87-1.... EIGHTY-SEVEN AND ONE ALL TIME. MARV ALBERT SEES THE FUTURE

  12. Why? Having the top pick doesn't mean anything in this draft. Nerlens Noel enjoys your foolishness. Really hope he enjoys being a bust and (hopefully) ending up like Greg Oden Yes. Because a 7'ft, 285 pounder with career-long knee problems with multiple surgeries is comparable to a 6'10", 205 pounder tearing his ACL. No, that's not what I meant. I meant about everybody talking about Oden would be the savior for Portland and would take them back to the playoffs and him ending up a bust. No, no, no....KYRIE IRVING is the savior. Noel is just the final piece to the puzzle.
  13. The NBA today awarded the heroic World Champion Cavaliers the #1 pick in the draft, stating simply "all other franchises are infidels".

  19. Jason Kipnis walk-off homer last night in Cleveland. Indians have won last 15 of 19 games. I hope this lasts all season! #letsgotribe!
  20. Buying an online subscription is probably your only option. Just get a month or something. EDIT: Unless you can transfer it from your computer to your PS3 via USB, but I don't own a PS3 so that's just a suggestion I'm throwing out their with no proof of working.
  21. I would highly suggest anyone get this, especially if it's just $10. Connected to PSN, you have access to plenty of save mods with real wrestlers, attires, and movesets, so you can sim WCW, ECW, NJPW, AJPW, all that jazz with real rosters. Personally, I run by own fantasy Japanese promotion using wrestlers I've created called HIGH CLASS (based on the logo available in the game, fake PANCRASE). Currently running a G-1 Climax -esque tournament to decide the promotion's first champion, but haven't ran a match in awhile since other things have come up. This thread does make me want to get back into it. But so much fun! Certainly one of the best wrestling games ever made once you figure out the system in place and the controls.
  22. RAW wouldn't be so dreadful if I didn't have to listen to JBL try to act like a commentator.

  23. Is WWE Main Event always centered around one twenty minute match? It's actually nice to see some of these guys have the chance to perform in ring longer than 6 minutes....
