Dirk is good, but he has no kahoonas, hi

I thought he was the big kahoona.

Look we all hate Lebron, but how could any C's fan want the Lakers to win over anybody, ever?  As has been mentioned in other threads, between the mounting number of championships, Phil Jackson passing Red on the all-time championships list, and the ugly cast of characters on that Lakers team this year, the Lakers can NOT win it all.  Besides, Cleveland has never won it, and Delonte will get a ring if they took it.

To the OP, hey man, injuries happen.  Last year, we coasted past the Pistons and Lakers who were a shadow of their former selves with injury problems.  Not saying we wouldn't have won it otherwise, but the road was paved in gold for us.  This is our team now, and we've got a puncher's chance at beating anyone, so lets ride...

GO CELTICS!!!

Hey, I hate the Lakers just as much as anybody, but I just can't stand all this talk about LeBron all the time and how the prevailing attitude is that this is his championship, that he deserves it, that it's right for him to be in the Finals and for him to lead his team to victory.  The guy is so into himself too, when asked what his favorite 5 athletes were growing up he listed himself as one of them. 

It's hard to say this, but I actually would rather see Kobe get another championship than see LeBron get one.
Never forget the Champs of '08, or the gutsy warriors of '10.

  Okay, you are right and i apologize for most of that vinny and all, i did write it wrong, it just came out too fast and i was caught up in the typing, no proof reading...but i figured most would see the paragraph as a whole and stop picking out things to run at, stop making it personal, so many times people take a line or two, and micro-analyze them to step on the poster, just talk on the subject or leave it alone, this isn't here for anyone to "call posters out"..disagree, debate, but leave the sarcasm out  ("ridiculous post..") ect...is that hard to understand? I don't attack other folks for general postings, I'll just post my thoughts around or near the subject, isn't that the idea here???  

No problem. All good! I understand you loud and clear and agree with you.

I can't believe I just saw Donyell Marshall and Theo Ratliff make 3 significant buckets between them in the 4th of a playoff game.  Good finish too.

EDIT: 4 now.  And nice redemption J by Iguodala!

That Philly/Orlando game was amazing. Props to the Sixers for gutting out the win.
