  • NBA fan poll: Unfair calls?

    What team gets the most unfair calls?

    Refs always seem to be blamed after a laker loss or celtics or heat so I was just wondering who gets the most unfair calls.

  • Why is spoelstra to blame?

    So everyone here is blaming spoelstra when Dwade was the one that really hoped he would stay. At the beginning when he wanted to run plays and play a systematic offence, lebron was starting to get pissed. He wanted to run the transition and play more free lance basketball, so spoelstra changed his ways and Lebron started playing "Lebron basketball". Now spoelstra is a great defensive coach just like Tibs, bringing the past miami team (pre-decision) to one of the best defensive teams and he's now made the Heat a top 3 defensive team behind bulls and celtics. I'm not saying Spoelstra is on the level of sloan jackson or popovich but this guy isn't no slouch. (Don't get me started on my damn coach, Triano) If Dwade likes Spoelstra, and Spoelstra is doing a great defensive work without a big man, I think he deserves some credit atleast. I don't even think the three was meant to be taken by Bosh if you saw the play Wade was suppose to curl off the screen down to the bottom.

    Who deserves the most blame?

  • What got you into basketball?

    I started watching basketball "passionately" before it was more casual when Nash got trade to the suns. I watched one game and i fell in love with how Nash played the game so ever since then I've really liked the sport. The only reason I know about Jordan's playing style and all the oldies is cause of hours of watching countless highlights and nba classics.

    BQ: How passionate are you about basketball?

  • Just want to clarify something about Kobe's clutchness?

    Those stats are biased and here is a reason why

    http://www.silverscreenandroll.com/2011/%E2%80%A6

    Those same stats say that Micheal Jordan made 33-58 BUT according to NBA.com that's incorrect

    http://www.nba.com/jordan/game_winners.html

    I just wanted to clarify those that are believing those retarded ESPN articles which I personally hate cause there biased to "prove" their opinions by use of their OWN numbers...

    I'll ask a question so I can actually choose an appropriate BA

    BQ: Washington Wizards against the Cavs next week who wins? (washington on the road)

    BQ2: Kevin love has the worst +/- in the league on and on his team with the worst record in the western conference finals, was aldrige robbed? (just had to throw some random stats to make it more fair)

  • Was Tim Duncan the closet person to win a ring by himself?

    The year 2002-2003 championship season where David Robinson in his last year. Ginobili was still a non-name and Tony Parker just started showing his potential.

    I know no one wins a ring by himself but would you consider this the closest person to do it? If not who else?

    BQ: Is Rondo really a great jump shooter like Boston fans making him out to be? ( I don't see it maybe I'm missing the point.)

    4 AnswersBasketball1 decade ago
  • Ginobili a hall of famer really?

    He has one all star appearance 0 finals MVP 0 MVP 0 Scoring titles 0 defensive awards 0 all nba dirst team or second team has never lead the league in any statistical category how does he have a resume to be in the hall of fame This was a question more aimed at Ryan d for calling me out but wanted to see other peoples opinion btw Tim Duncan is known for hitting clutch shots why would you take him out in the last moments of a game

  • What do you think about these topics?

    Rusell Westbrook outplaying rondo? Is westbrook better or just as good or worse? (i know it's one game but some celtics fans were saying how rondo would crush westbrook in a game so i just want to see what you guys think of him)

    Darko Milicic having a great game? Is he still one of the worst picks? ( I don't think he's a bust considering he's 6th in shotblocking but what do you think)

    Portland still going to resign Oden... Good move or not?

    Who's better as of right now Gasol or Kobe?

  • Jordan has an answer for Kobe or Lebron?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOsamobHeMc&NR=1

    Jordan says Kobe is better than Lebron perhaps that's because Kobe resembles MJ more than Lebron but maybe he just actually thinks Kobe is better.

    What do you think?

    BQ: Does this change your opinion on the matter?

  • What are you thoughts about the ring argument?

    So kibby in a recent question said that its delusional and hypocrtical to account for rings in an argument of who's better which i disagree.

    Here's my problem with the ring argument. To say that the ring argument isn't valid i think is a defence only used for Lebron. I've never heard the ring argument against Kobe and Jordan. I've heard that Jordan is better than Kobe for performances in the finals but never about the rings itself. I've never heard Jordan has 6 Kobe has 5 therefore Jordan is better. Most people just talk about how Jordan drops 35 in the finals while Kobe scores 28 with a garbage fg% but that's a separate argument in itself. So why say the ring argument only applies to Kobe and Lebron that when it comes to those two that rings don't matter?

    The ring argument should be vaild cause if you can't win the big one your not playing the game right that's my opinion. What if Lebron had these stats as a cavalier 25-10-8 and wins the ring? That means that lebron shoulda passed more than scored which would benefit his teammate. ( I no way am I calling Lebron selfish I'm just stating a hypothetical example)

    Maybe Kobe is playing in a way that can win a ring while Lebron is playing in a way to benefit his stats? I'm not saying neither case is correct but its just a question..

    What are your thoughts?

  • Lakers going to be a Dynasty?

    Lakers have gone to the finals and now are going to win. Their players besides fisher aren't that old. Lakers may now be the only one. Since the spurs don't look like their going to be a force anymore as well as Detroit. The Celtics have alot of old players. Orlando seems young with Dwight Hedo Nelson

    Will Lakers be a dynasty?

    Will Magics be a dynasty?
