Title: LAKERS are one of 7 teams picked to win the NBA championship!
Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on November 03, 2005, 03:46:31 PM
THE SEVEN TEAMS THAT CAN WIN THE 2006 NBA TITLE


1. San Antonio
Loaded team, phenomenal bench, resident superstar on hand, tons of confidence ... why couldn't they finish like 74-8? Who's stopping them? I feel like every Spurs loss would be an accident -- this is the most stacked NBA team since the '97 Bulls. I can't even think of anything interesting to say about them.


2. Detroit
Playing with a collective "We can win without Larry Brown, just watch!" chip on their shoulder, which makes them exceedingly dangerous.


3. Indiana
Love the team, love the chemistry, love the coach. But here's my big question: Game 7, Eastern Finals, down by one, 20 seconds left, Indy has the ball ... who takes the big shot for them? Who steps up? Are you really happy with Artest taking that shot? What about Stephen Jackson? The Lithuanian? A fallaway from Jermaine O'Neal? None of the options make me feel that good. I'd rather go with the previous guys.


4. Miami
I think they missed their big window last spring. We'll see.


5. Dallas
The best bet to sneak into the Western Finals and get shellacked by 20 points a game.


6. Phoenix
Let's say they manage to hang around .500 past the trading deadline ... and Amare comes back right around March Madness ... and he rounds himself into shape by mid-April ... and they end up being a seventh seed. Would you want to play them? Me neither.


7. LA Lakers
Never understimate the danger of Mamba (Kobe Bryant). You know, the mamba can strike with 99 percent accuracy at maximum speed, in rapid succession ...



The pick: San Antonio over Detroit in five.

Kobe is simply the best player in the league, and he's a man on a mission. He'll shut all the haters like you, boy. He actually already started it. Watch the winning shot again and again and keep dreaming about having a player like him in your fav team.

I'm not a kobe hater.I just don't think he's the best player in the league. Actually he used to play with the best player in the league.

and look at kobe last year...

dont overrate a game winning shot like that. hell, even jason terry made a sick game-tying effort right at the buzzer vs. phoenix. if kobe did the exact same thing he did it would be everywhere on wcc and everybody would say how great kobe is. jason terry does it nobody gives a shit.

to be honest laker fans remind me of blind american patriots. whenever you don't agree with the supposed greatness of what they support, they see you as an enemy.

Please. Kobe has done it a dozen of times. He's the most clutch player ever. Probably more than "sir" Michael Jordan himself. And all the coaches and GM's in the league voted him as the player who they'd love to have in their team to make the last shot. Other than that, he has done in in the NBA Finals too, in the Play Offs, in important games, everytimes he had to prove he's a winner, he did it, with the last shot. Terry just made a miracle shot, like Korver, like other players. But please dont diss yourself comparing them. It's not about being a Kobe dickrider, cause it's a fact.

I don't mean to be rude but Kobe and Micheal Jordan belong NO where in the same sentence, I didn't even like Jordan when he played in the league, but I know he is the best player in the league PERIOD

Dude, you're the biggest joke in the sports section, not even Laker Fans respect your ass. Your posts make it look like you're 14 or so, and if you're indeed much older it is pretty sad to be honest.
Title: Re: LAKERS are one of 7 teams picked to win the NBA championship!
Post by: Stone Cold is Bout It, Bout It on November 04, 2005, 03:48:13 AM
are you sure about that..i think every one has agreed that you and tex are the biggest joke in here

And Laker fans don't respect me? i think is the other way around..there's a 9 page thread of people clowning you :laugh:

and you're a fucking naive 19 year old from Europe..you were 13 when kobe won his first championship..you don't shit..you probably started fallowing b-ball 2 years ago..you're brainwashed..you think shaq was the soul reason for the championships/the best center ever and Lebron is better then kobe..

Did you even see the great games and cluth performences kobe had in the playoffs?

did you even know about the mavs choking away the 2nd biggest lead in nba history going in to the 4rth quarter against the Lakers and kobe hit the GW shot in that game? no you didn't..you were 14 years old LOL..

i owned you when i gave you facts why shaq aint the best center ever and you didn't respond..you got owned..the same with that fag tex,,when he gets owned you could expect him to say "you're a dickryder" :loser:

you're pathetic and no Laker fan takes you serious..

Post by: 7even on November 04, 2005, 03:54:48 AM
one thing you should know about me, Im not one of those who always need to respond to bullshit just to prove something. when Im not in the mood and something is clearly not worth a response, I just don't respond, literally. now, when you say me and tex are the biggest jokes here, it's clear that you're a biased ass. no laker fan takes me serious lol wtf, it's not about laker or not-laker to me, like it seems to be for you guys. I never said shaq was the sole reason for the titles, but he was the major reason. kobe has had his clutch moments, I never argued that.
see, the difference is, laker fans like nik and antonio usually reply in a mature way, so do I and tex and most other guys on a regular basis, no matter how differnt the opinions are. you on the other hand, always talk shit.

Man i probably don't write in a correct english, but i don't think i've written Kobe is a better player than Jordan was been. I've seen he's probably more clutch. And when i said Kobe is the best player in the league, i wasnt comparing him with retired players. Obviously.

your team hasn't won shit in they history..you're obsessed with the Lakers and kobe..have you noticed no Laker fan acts that way when it comes to the mavs or spurs?..you fools need to get of our nuts..

and kobe was/is clutch every single game..he didn't have  2 or 3 moments..he did that shit all the time.

and how am i biased? you two are the biased ones

the problem is when you say dirk is the softest all-star in the league, I say you might be right - when I say something negative about kobe, you're on my dick.
im not obsessed with the lakers or kobe, I just want to talk about basketball here, and since most threads here are related to kobe or the lakers, I just talk more about them than about anyone else. best believe I would also talk a lot about the mavs, Lol, but since the rest of the board isnt very interested I would just lie to myself making threads about them when I know that people don't really care. so when I post in laker threads im not trying to be "on your nuts", im just posting in basketball threads, including laker threads. and just cause I don't claim them contenders who win mvp, 6th man, most improved player and coach of the year awards, doesnt mean Im a hater

I want to go a little bit off topic. Dirk proved me he has great balls and heart during the last European Championship leading Germany to the silver medal. He was been heroic. But yes, he's still soft.

two games into the season and the laker fans are already thinking they are hot stuff =D thats cool tho nothing wrong with confidence in your team but lets get back to reality....

Kobe the most clutch player? LMAO......im sorry Jerry West...Reggie Miller....Michael Jordan....o no fuck that Robert Horry is more clutch than him....i mean cmon no doubt Kobe is clutch....but not the greatest....plz dont be that  far in over your heads.

Wests top 7 probly?
Minnesota, San Antonio, Phoenix, Dallas, Houston....then its between Utah Lakers Seattle Denver.....yea Lakers beat denver but talk bout a close game. and its still to early. dont be surpised if Phil dont get you to the playoffs. but if he dont this year he'll pull sumtin during the off season and get u there next year.

Jordan has hit 25 game-winning shots in the NBA, including the playoffs. Kobe is at 17 and running, and he's still just 28 years old. Other than that consistently elevates his game in clutch situations and he was been constantly the leader of the NBA in fourth quarter scoring. I think it's not a blasphemy to say he'll be remembered as one of the best ever, if not the best. Not to mention the fact i wrote probably. So it was just an opinion.

But cluth doesnt necessarily have to be a last second game winner Antonio... Jordan putting on 10pts over the final minute and 8 seconds for example to lead to a win is cluth, Reggies 8pts in like 3 seconds or whatever is clutch etc...

obviously Kobe is RIGHT up there in terms of "clutchness", but still, not the best yet... has a chance to be the best though...

umm....ok. As Phil stated, the Lakers making the playoffs would be an accomplishment. The only thing about the list thats funny is, at least half of the league analysts out there dont think LA will even make the playoffs. And of those that think they might make the playoffs...most pick them as a lower seed, being bounced out in round one. Ill give the Lakers this...they have the capability of being better then expected. A Championship? lol NO. But better then last year for sure. Thing is, people arent expecting much from them...which is an advantage for them.

LMFAO. You're fuckin' stupid. How many game winning shots has Jason Terry hit? Come on man, don't tell me you're SERIOUS with that comparison. Kobe is tremendous. He's proving it again. If you just watch him play, it's like he can hit almost any shot he wants. Easily the best player in the league so far this season. If you wanna sit there and deny Kobe's greatness after yet another great accomplishment of his, then YOU, my friend, are the one who should be compared to a blind American patriot, no one else...PeACe

LMFAO. This dude actually said Horry was more clutch than Kobe...Do you realize that you'd get shitted on if you said that sitting in a room with a basketball analyst? Horry can hit clutch shots, yes, but Kobe is clutch. Phil himself even said once that Kobe might even be better in the clutch than Jordan was, he's known to just be at his best in those situations...Maybe you could learn some more and return to this board in a few months and then reply. As for now...PeACe

And of those that think they might make the playoffs...most pick them as a lower seed, being bounced out in round one. Ill give the Lakers this...they have the capability of being better then expected. A Championship? lol NO. But better then last year for sure. Thing is, people arent expecting much from them...which is an advantage for them.


I, personally as a fan, like to keep myself optimistic. I see potential in the Lakers. No one thought Phoenix would be anywhere near contenders last year, and look what they did. And they did that coached by Mike D'antonio...I believe, and if some analysts have picked the Lakers to contend, that gives me even more reason to believe...PeACe

Without reading your quote, I can tell you smoke rocks.

without seeing your sig, i can tell you're a Kobe dickrider.



Is this thread about Kobe? No. So why did you feel the need to bring him up?...Looks like you're the one on Kobe's dick, mentioning him in threads where he has no place. :-X

you dickride kobe, therefore you dickride the lakers  :-X


So you think if Kobe was traded I wouldn't like the Lakers? You're a stupid piece of shit, I hope you realize that.

if Kobe was traded "instead", youd say Kobe was a decent player...and Shaq was the NBA.


So in that case I WOULDN'T be a Kobe dickrider...LOL...But ummm, no, that's not the case. I have no idea why you would make assumptions like that without knowing, that's some bullshit. I've always liked Kobe better than Shaq and thought he was the best player in the NBA the last few years. Him being traded wouldn't change that. I still like Kareem Rush after he got traded. In fact, I think he's proven himself even more after the trade...You're just making some dumb shit up, so I'd appreciate it if you didn't. :-X

two games into the season and the laker fans are already thinking they are hot stuff =D thats cool tho nothing wrong with confidence in your team but lets get back to reality....

Kobe the most clutch player? LMAO......im sorry Jerry West...Reggie Miller....Michael Jordan....o no fuck that Robert Horry is more clutch than him....i mean cmon no doubt Kobe is clutch....but not the greatest....plz dont be that  far in over your heads.

Jordan has hit 25 game-winning shots in the NBA, including the playoffs. Kobe is at 17 and running, and he's still just 28 years old. Other than that consistently elevates his game in clutch situations and he was been constantly the leader of the NBA in fourth quarter scoring. I think it's not a blasphemy to say he'll be remembered as one of the best ever, if not the best. Not to mention the fact i wrote probably. So it was just an opinion.

Where did you get those facts?

Jordan -> from a book of him. Some say he made 28 winning shots, some 25. The most accurate seems to be 25.
Kobe -> in a message board, they had them all listed.

About him being the leader of the 4th quarter scoring i remember it from a couple of Lakers games i've seen on tv.

Horry is indeed clutch. Remember, he was on my squad for 7 years. I would know...But Kobe is undisputedly on another level. To compare Horry to Kobe is insane. Horry is a clutch shooter, but Kobe is Mr. Clutch, there's a huge difference...You're not wrong for your opinion, you're wrong because you have no fuckin' clue what you're talking about...That's all you get (for now)...PeACe

Horry is not only a great clutch player. He was been the best team defender i've ever seen. The player with the best basketball IQ i've seen in Lakers. He was been a great player, and a great reason why we won the championship. If you ask me, when we didnt sign him signing Malone instead of him, i was almost crying because Horry > Malone for them Shaq/Kobe-Lakers. I love Horry. He's as clutch as Kobe, but the difference is that Kobe really steps up in the 4th quarter. He can win a game alone in the last 12 minutes. More than Shaq. More than everybody in the league. Nobody is a better 4th quarter player than him. No questions about it. But Horry, i got nothing but love for him. Horry, Fox, Fisher, Harper, Shaw, Lue, George.. i love them all.

im still not comparing them as players. but as clutch players....Horry had alotta clutch plays and most in playoffs or championships. i aint saying kobe hasnt...but Horry did a hell of alot in those crucial moments...and he was pretty damn consistent...as players Kobe > Horry no doubt. but thats not my opinion. so i have a clue what im talking bout. specially when it comes to clutch player...i been a Reggie Miller fan since i was 4 yrs old =D thnx
