Bucks vs Cavaliers (12.06.09)

[Kiorrik]

On now. For those watching it: awesome start, isn't it?

For those not watching it: Bucks lead 10-0.

.edit: Bucks leading by 2 now, 17-15, they turned it down

.edit: and they trail by 4 after going 21-6. Harharhar. 17-21 Cavs in the lead.

[Kiorrik]

It's funny to see how the Cavs are beatable when they got Shaq in, and then when Z and Varejao are in, they go on an 11-0 points run in this game.

Also, Delonte West in the game, good to see him in.

[Kiorrik]

And Delonte is the first to reach 10 points. He's playing great.

Also, Bucks missed 16 shots in a row now. 39-17. Crowd is booing, and it's halfway the second quarter. Ouch.

[Kiorrik]

Bucks scored :') 19-39, 14 points for Delonte.

I really like the Cavs actually. I kind of measure teams by how many of their players I 'recognize' and know by name and/or nickname. With the Cavs, I gotta say I respect a lot of their players.

Big Z,
Varejao,
Boobie Gibson,
Delonte West,
Mo Williams...

Now I'm not naming O'neal because he's a sad shadow of himself right now, and not naming the King because that'd be too obvious, and Powe would be too obvious

I could root for this team.

While I typedd this, O'neal has actually produced and scored 6 straight points, one of them a LeBron lob oop dunk. Awesome. He's still holding the Cavs down though



.ps: Solo topics for the win I'll just chat to myself then today GET LEAGUE PASS YOU SLACKERS! lol

Kiorrik, Kiorrik.... Don't you realize what you've done? You've created a jinx thread. The Bucks were doomed to lose the moment you clicked post.

Back on topic, you're right the Cavs are a disjointed team with Shaq on the floor. Instead of making players around him better he's making the worse, because the pieces just aren't a good fit. Shaq turns Lebron into a jumpshooter and takes the ball away from Mo Williams (their second best player). Varejao and Hickson can't hit the jumper consistently so the lane is clogged. When he's on the floor their offense becomes very predictable, and they get worse defensively.

Yep, exactly. It's like parking a pickup truck in the lane.

First u defended Lebron in the Lebron thread, now ur praising some of the "most easy to hate" personalities on the Cavs? SMH...

I can honestly say out of that list, I only respect Big Z, and West.

Mo williams is a cry baby.. Gibson thinks he's Lebron Jr... and Varejao is a dirty player(oh and a flopper too)...

Yeh well, I don't generally hate on anyone, honestly

Kobe is the exception, but I'll reluctantly admit that he's a great basketball player too.

So yeh, I'm a fan of basketball first matey. I care for great skills, even if they're flopping skills.

Oh wait, reminds me, Manu Ginobili. He's the person I like the least in this league. By far actually. At least Kobe's man enough to not be a whiney ... nvm, I'll leave the Manu-bashing for our next game against them.

[Kiorrik]

Alright, two things.

One, thanks for making me feel less lonely guys lol.

Secondly: Brandon Jennings. Now I will not pretend I've seen many Bucks games, but I'm going to give this my best shot; while watching this game, I get the feeling Jennings has been shooting like crap lately because he hasn't been taking it to the hole. When he goes to the hole, he looks phenomenal. When he's not, when he's settling for jumpers, he looks like ... well.. I wouldn't say Rondo, but it's not pretty. At all.

I believe this guy is legit, and just needs to work on that jumper.

I need to stop using the word hate.. I dislike them... LOL
I DO however, HATE Kobe(to the point that if he were crossing the street, and there was no one around, I would step on the gas pedal just to see if he can really jump over a car)...****...JK

Since I am a fan of BASKETBALL in general, I do have respect for his skills, and achievements..

ROFL @ the Kobe statement

Yeh, basketball first is the absolutely right way of loving this game. I don't even dislike the Cavs though. Too many skilled players.

Wish I commanded the same kind of respect, but unfortunately there's an endless amount of threads with this guy Bahku going on-and-on alone about games that others have no interest in whatsoever ... he also starts threads that everyone completely ignores, (I recall one just today, coincidently). Ah, well ... I guess it keeps me active, right? "A voice crying out in the wilderness."
