infrared41 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 The NBA thread is producing more gems than a South African mine. The pervasive sense of utter cluelessness as of late (myself totally included for thinking Tim Duncan was a top center) has been good for business. Tim Duncan is a league-leading center, being a lifelong Laker fan makes somebody "just like LeBron James," and the Minnesota Timberwolves are a lottery pick away from contention. Someone's passing around stupid pills.To all the positions things I post, I just bring the determination to win. Me being an unselfish player poster, I think that can carry on to my teammates fellow CCSLCers. When you have one of the best players posters on the court boards being unselfish, I think that transfers to the other players posters. I don't need too much. Glamour and all that stuff don't excite me. I am just glad I have the game of basketball CCSLC forums in my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot harder than high school the old AOL forums. It's competitive, and that's what I most love about it.I am just happy to be part of the Nike CCSLC family.

TFoA Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 The Heat are stupid. Of all the guys on the floor during the last second (Bibby, Miller, Wade, LeBron, Bosh) down 3 to take a 3 pointer, they give it to BOSH FIRST for a 3 pointer, then LEBRON. THEY IGNORED THE TWO GUYS THEY BROUGHT IN SPECIFICALLY TO MAKE 3s, AND THEY IGNORED THE MOST CLUTCH PLAYER ON THE TEAM.I'm nowhere near a Heat fan, but that team is frustrating to watch. They're like the Hawks on steroids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drakonius26 Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Was the slam dunk contest rigged?Possibly... I mean, it's the NBA, right? So there's always a chance something could be rigged.In all fairness though, Yahoo Sports threw together an article like this shortly after the Slam Dunk Contest. Blake Griffin didn't exactly blow away the competition with his performance, but with getting his dunk down on the first try, having the whole setup (car, choir, everything) it's hard to take anything away from him.To be honest, the Slam Dunk Contest hasn't been good for a while, despite a couple of standout performances in 2000 by Vince Carter, and 2008 by Dwight Howard. It's become far too stale, and way too played-out at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFoA Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 You thought it wasn't?Pretty much...and honestly, all he had to do was just get the ball through the rim & he would've won. That being said, I don't care. The point of the Slam Dunk contest at this point in the history of the NBA is being entertained by the spectacle, and those 4 players entertained the hell out of me.

The slam dunk competition nowadays seems to have the atmosphere of a wrestling match (the fake kind), but it's still entertaining as hell. The whole point of every event on All-Star Weekend is to entertain, and they do a great job of it.I actually did text-vote for McGee (incidentally, the first time I have ever text-voted for anything on TV), but even as I was texting I realized it was probably pointless.

With the Lakers winning on a questionable call.Next year if there is one.They meet again and the Heat win.Does anything the NBA have done in the last year make anyone think they are favoring the Heat? Surely they might get the odd favourable call at the end of some of those close games if they were? and how bad were the Heat down the stretch against the Magic? Is it possible to suddenly become good in clutch situations? Surely the only way is to replace the guy calling the plays? 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
