East- Detroit (My home team)

West - Sacramento ( This is Chris Webbers year)

World Champs- Sacramento

SUNS!!!
 

Is anyone in here a SUNS fan??? :confused: well I am since '93 with KJ and Barkley and Danny Ainge and Dan Marjle and Cedric Ceballos...now that was the squad!!! And right now I am lovin' me some Stephon Marbury and Penny!!! :D

Go S U N S !!!

LAKERS OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS!

Yes, rub it in, why won't you?
 

Well, there's a lot of blame to pass around. But hopefully the front office will get its head out of its a** and build around the two best players in the league. And secondly, I must say this to my fantasy husband -- his butt better be in shape. He should have had his toe surgery before 9/11/2002.
:mad:

Re: Yes, rub it in, why won't you?
 

Rubbing it in? What soror! I would never do that! :D

Re: Yes, rub it in, why won't you?
 

I agree. I think ALL the injuries got the best of them in this series & season.

We definately need a power forward next season. How do you feel about the "MAILMAN" coming to L.A.? I think it would be Great!

And for all the haters....WE"LL BE BACK!:p

Re: Re: Yes, rub it in, why won't you?
 

I like the Malone idea, but I also want young stuh around the Daddy and Kobe. Fresh, athletic legs.

Meanwhile, I want the Suckaishto Queens to lose, despite the beautiful Chris Webber.:p

Re: Re: Re: Yes, rub it in, why won't you?
 

Same here. You know they have extra wind in their cells now that the Lakers are out.

I do hate that Chris is injured though.

Eastern: New Jersey
Western: Sacramento
Champs: New Jersey

Eastern: New Jersey
Western: San Antonio
Champs: San Antonio!

Oh yeah!!! Can't wait to see San Antonio take the gold.

Embittered Lakers fan
 

Who got some mild sense of satisfaction with Sac-town's departure from the playoffs.

me:D :cool: :) ;)

World Champs
 

I know I'm bouncin' in heeya late but, the World Championship belongs to SAN ANTONIO!!!

2 Games a piece and that was an exciting end of the game tonight! Nets may have the formula to solve the Spur mystery!

I hope so because it is TIME for the Eastern Conference to win the championship. If I'm not mistaken the last time this happened was with the Bulls Dynasty.

TTT/2004 Western Conference
 

Now. The Lakers did their job, although I am not pleased with the throwing of the switch mentality. In the WC Finals, if Minnesota is the opponent, the team needs to go in and steal one of the first two games -- not the fifth -- in the Target Center.
The sense of urgency would be less if Sacramento is the oppt., because the Lakers have home court.

And it was beautiful to see Sugar Shaquille Diesel Daddy O'Neal crash the boards 19 times last night and block those shots. :D

BOOO LAKERS!!!! :mad:

Well, since S.A. is now out of it, I would love to see SAC vs. NJ for the title.

I desPISE the Lakers.

CO-SIGN:(

I'm torn-- because I've been a Lakers fan since the Magic Johnson/Showtime era. I'm torn because I've never been a Karl Malone fan and now find myself lightweight-rooting for him (weirdness, I know...)

also, I'm a Kevin Garnett fan (and yep, Tim Duncan has Garnett's MVP trophy from last year at his crib and needs to give it back) and I expect Minnesota to put the wood to Sacramento --a team I don't like at all-- today. Between LA/Minn., my allegiance is with LA but I'll listen to arguments from Minnesota's finest DST (Delph998) to try to sway me. :D

Outside of Indiana, the East is unwatchable.

GOOOOO Kings!!!!! :D:D:D:D:D

Lakers....they are coming for you!!!!!! :D

I can't wait for tonight's game. I want the Nets to win it all, I know they want to win so bad, they can taste it.

YAY!!! My babies pulled it out today! Just hoping they can pull it out on Wednesday.

I'm hoping for a Kings-Pacers match up

But, either way, the winners coming out of the West. The Western Conference Final will once again be the REAL FINAL.


Thank you Tony for bringing back fond memories of the Showtime Lakers. I loved them. Perhaps, my "hater" status will leave after Kobe leaves (by free will or force). This year was hard. I like Shaq, Malone, and Payton!!! But darnit, their arrogance is sickening!

That's right Tony! MINNESOTA T-Wolves!!! Hey, I'm just happy they've made it this far.

NBA justice
 

http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news;_yl...v=st&type=lgns

Anthony Peeler suspended for two games. Kevin Garnett, he of the symmetry, mad game and $126M contract (yup, Shaq's not the only player that excites me ;) ) only got a $7.5K fine.

Re: NBA justice
 

See, if they were playing another team I wouldn't mind. But, since they are playing my babies...I'm hopping mad!!

But, if they got rid of KG, it would really be over.

Two words:

GO TIMBERWOLVES!!!!

Naww...
 

GO LAKERS!!!!

Get that hot, black, sweaty "diesel" working, continue to play defense.
:D

Re: Naww...
 

...uhm, are we still talking basketball, here?!?

but on a much less enthusiastic tip, I agree. Go Lakers. :D

Re: Re: Naww...
 

We are talking basketball. I'm not Shaunie.:D :p

Part of the journey's done
 

Good win by the Lakers, despite more referee clowning and flubs. Kareem Rush...stepped it up...beautifully.

I only want the Lakers to win b/c of the stuf Kobe is going through.... not a real good reason...but basketball doesnt interest me as much as it used to...anywho... the T-wolves are going to give everybody a run for their $$ next year....they got too close and they're going to be hungry next time around..

Okay, so the Lakers won...but the T-Wolves didn't go out without a fight. Next year they'll do better...especially if Sam C. is in good health.

Yep, each year they get further and further.

Exactly! :D

Re: Part of the journey's done
 

I love the lakers, but i usually don't start watching until i get home for the summer. I'm very proud of them, especially fro their bench players. The T-wolves played hard though even without Sam C. Beautifully isn't the word for Kareem Rush....he might have to be my new eye candy, nick cannon, step back!:D

Re: Re: Naww...
 

You are nuts!!


But, all I have to say is:


BOO HISS!!!

Re: Re: Re: Naww...
 

yeah, what she said...

GO PISTONS!!!!!!
