We don't stand a chance!

If McDyess isnt back next season im going to beat someone up.

The radio hosts on 97.1 after the game were saying if we can't get Carlos Boozer or a RFA like David Lee in Free Agency, we should re-sign Sheed to a 1 year deal.

I say no way. That would be a mentally handicapped idea. I am glad to say that Sheed has only 5 more games in a Pistons uniform.

Id still prefer Millsap to all of them!

Ooh boy. Heat/Hawks is going to be one fun ass series.

Beasley got 23/13 in 24 minutes FYI. Him vs. J-Smoove will be sweet.

Yeah Hawks won tonight but doesn't matter because Dwade didn't play. Still Smoove, Joe Johnson, Horford, and Bibby only played about a quarter. Nice to see Marv playing nice back from injury. He could be the difference maker. Can't believe the Hawks bench won a game. They are clearly the worst bench in the NBA, but hey any time Mario West, Thomas Gardner, Solomon Jones, Othello Hunter, and Randolph Morris are playing the bulk of your minutes and you pull off a win makes me happy.

BTW kind of random but TedGinn do you still follow the Thunder now that they are out of Seattle???

I like the signing. I think Avery Johnson would have clashed with a lot of players because of his personality and his emphasis on defense. As a PG he would have lots of conflicts with Gilbert. Flip should bring back stability.

I hate the whole city of Boston more than usual right now.

He's better than Michael Curry.

thetedginnshow · 04-14-2009, 09:00 PM

Hell to the no. I hate the Thunder.

But I think you're mistaken if you think the Hawks bench is worst than the Heat bench. The Heat bench is mostly comprised of D-League players. Can't wait for the series though. We should bet. lol

Celtics beating the Sixers was nice. Bulls now need a win over Toronto or a Sixers loss to Cleveland to get the six seed.

I am sure you meant Sixers loss to Cleveland. I have a good feeling we can give Orlando a scare. I don't think we will take the series, just give Orlando an opening round scare.

Right you are sir. I definitely agree, don't think we'll win it but think we can make a little more noise than we would against the Celtics. Regardless, nice to get into the playoffs.

Playoff time everyone!

I think the Heat, 76ers, and Bulls will all give their opponets a good 6 or 7 game series in the end, but I do have to say the Hawks, Magic, and Celtics will prevail. Cleveland will sweep Detroit.

ill sweep you

.... off your feet

WMD · 04-15-2009, 05:42 AM

You cannot sweep that which has already been swopen. Yodachu is my boo.

John Wall could be eligible for the draft...that could be a huge draft shake up. Does he go behind Griffin? Or does he fall due to being younger and less proven? I'm definitely interested to see how this plays out.

Edit: Just saw LeBron, Mo, Z, Big Ben and Joe Smith are sitting tonight. **** you Mike Brown! Come on, what are the chances of an injury? Let us have the record.

How can he be eligible? Isn't he a senior/doesn't prep school still count as HS (if he's in prep)?

EDIT: **** the Cavs. I was about to apologize for making Elo look like a douche, but now you deserve it. I hope you get embarrassed in the playoffs.

MichaelJordanEberle (sabf) · 04-15-2009, 02:23 PM

Cavs will not lose this year. Mo Williams has finally found his Pippen. And Mo's Pippen is a lot better than Jordan's Pippen was. It's. All. Over.

He's a 5th year senior in HS...the rule is worded their graduating class has to be one year removed from HS and there's a chance that qualifies. I don't know the specifics I just know its possible.

Well THATs comforting. The Browns are headed back to mediocrity, the Indians are 1-7 and the Cavs are gonna lose to the Lakers in the finals. Cleveland needs....something. Why not go for the record?

Didn't the same thing happen to Bill "I got my **** stuffed by Wally Szczerbiak" Walker? I thought I remember hearing how he might have been eligible out of HS cuz he was deemed ineligible for his senior year of HS. He might have been allowed to, maybe he went to KSU for second sem. 2 years ago and played a bit, but got hurt and had to stay another year or risk not being drafted?

I'm confused as to what this even means. I know you are comparing Pippen to Bron, which is fine. But what does Mo Williams have to do with anything? Honestly, a better comparison would be Pippen to Mo because Pippen was pretty much a PG for the Bulls a lot of the time, in which case Pippen >>>> Mo. Then it would be Jordan to Bron, in which case Jordan > Bron.

Bulls still win :D.

Yea, I thought it was you have to be 1 year removed from HS. But obviously if the wording is weird, it could be possible. But I don't understand how it the class before can be considered his graduating class, if he isn't graduating with them but the class after?

No. Mo Williams is the GOAT of pro sports. Not just basketball.
