occassionally, but usually too bizzy... Pistons are my best liked team deh, basicly cas I been a huge Rasheed Wallace fan since his daze inna Ptown here... Pistons saw his potential and put him inna position ta do it HIS way... sumthin Blazers nevah dreamed a doin, to their BIG loss! whoa, dem lowly Blazers, I'm a Blazer fan still, but we got nuh'in fi cheer about... altho Spurs are great I dont care fi dem too much and I do like Suns, don't know much bout dem Clips but I guess dem doin pritty good still... bout time... anyway... jussa few thawts

Just got HDTV and it is a whole nother level. WEatched LeBron and Carmello last night go at it. LeBron is just coming into his Man Strength which takes most men until about 35 to reach, that guy is going to be unstoppable. Blazers are my squad, we are soft right now, but the 2nd youngest squad in the league. We start the youngest backcourt in NBA history right now with Telfair(20) and martell Webster(19). I think Randolph is our veteran and he is a whopping 24. Next year we should be top 3 in the lottery look for us to add the 2nd coming of Larry Legend in Gonzaga's Adam Morrison.

Kings all the way. I don't even care anymore whether or not they're the best in the West. I think we made a big mistake with Chris Webber now with the 76ers. But
Bonzi Wells and Abdur Rahim as add ins--Yes. Like I said I'm a fan. But still the Spurs or Suns in the West: Detriot, Miami, maybe even the 76ers in the East.

Blazers looked good last night in winning their second in a row. Has anyone read the book "The Jump: Sebastian Telfair and the High Stakes World of High School Basketball"? It is a very good book so far, I am about half way through, it makes you take another look at what is going on out there.

i don't like the guy either, but i must admit i like watchin him play. i mean the best two teams in the league (Det vs San Antone) play first and nobody cares. and then its the shaq/riley vs kobe/phil show and the ratings go through the roof.

i can't really explain it? i guess people enjoy the drama

Kobe only won titles because he was with Shaq. The supporting cast he has now is just as good as the one he had on those teams with Shaq and still NOTHING. Tomorrow I would take Wade.

That is pure crazyness to think that Kobe had the same caliber of supporting players last year and this year as he did with the Lakers when they were unstopable. During those years, Shaq spent a lot of time on the bench with toe injuries, etc...Kobe and the rest of the team still got them to the Playoffs and Finals. I am not a big Lakers Fan, and would like to see The Heat do well, but the Lakers were sick in their hayday, without Shaq......

Toni Kukoc was my all-time fav but he never gave his maximum in NBA... Ive seen him for the first time in Jugoslavia junior team, when he was 16 old.

"but he was money when he played for the bulls"

He played strictly what the coach told him, and his role (like the rest of other Bulls players) was to make more place for Jordan.

420- come with some new material those guys are all gone, and I am sure that the Blazer players were the only one's in the league to smoke herb.

Pale- You have to be outta of your mind to think that the Lakers win a title without Shaq. Playoffs, yes for sure, those teams were still good teams without Shaq, but champions, no WAY. They wouldn't have gotten past the Blazers. The first title that they won they were down 14 going into the 4th against the Blazers and it took all they had to get past them and that meant both Kobe and Shaq at the top of their game. Unfortunetly for us that is exactly what happened.

NinjaMagic,
I agree that they would not have won the finals without Shaq, but the team was very well rounded. Remember Robert Hory? Teams win Championships, not single players. Why do you think Allen Iverson has such a hard time getting there, or how bout Tracey McGrady? A single player can push you over the top, but without role players, you aint got nada but showboating....But I am sure you know this.......

There is a paradox re Tony Kukoc. While in Europe, he played NBA basketball at its best, as he was real, one and only succesor of Magic Johnson. When he finaly came to Bulls, he get completely lost. He became the shadow of the player who, amongst other things, decided games as a rule and never missed key points. Not to mention beauty of his plays, comparable only to those of Magic. Pitty that NBA crowd never had a chance to see real Kukoc. Worse, with constant and drastical lowering of the quality of the game in USA, public is now doomed to second rate European players and natives with lot of muscles and small brains, who became stars as judges tolerate their fouls, traveling violations et coetera. I mean, people a la Shaq cannot play normal basketball. They have to much muscles, to much kilos.

from the Boston Globe

Nine of the 16 schools that mysteriously had no graduation rate whatsoever just happen to include last year's most hideous offenders, such as:

Alabama (0 percent for black men and 13 percent overall in the 2002 report).

Cincinnati (0 percent for black men, 17 percent overall).

Louisville (0 for black men, 10 percent overall).

Kentucky (13 percent and 33 percent overall).

Southern Illinois (14 percent for black men and 27 percent overall).

Memphis (0 period).

Nevada (0 percent for black men, 20 percent overall).

Virginia Commonwealth (0 period).

Alabama State (0 period).

Whoa Sac Queens. The Sacramento Monarchs are reigning WNBA champions. And those Kings Shag (I still love Shaq) refers to were one three made by the Lakers from the NBA finals and twice Pacific Division champions.
