2009-2010 NBA Season, Lebron to Miami!

This. Bynum got bumped while two players were going for the ball, it's a dirty play if you're shoving someone on a dead ball with no good reasoning. I dunno if it's a "big deal" but I thought it gave good perspective on Bynum's character.

Bynum is known to retaliate eye for an eye, whether it is returning a dunk to KG's trash talking, Shaq's dunk, or someone pushing and shoving. I don't know if you were paying full attention, but Bynum got shoved pretty hard on that play with no real play on the ball. I would be upset too if I thought it was an intentional shove (and from what I see, he had plenty of reason to) while I had received injuries from that kind of BS before.

On a slightly different topic, grats to Charlotte for making a game of it.

Back to Bynum, as a hardcore Laker fan, it's great to see him playing with some passion. In my house, he's normally referred to as "Cardboard" ...

Vince Carter fucking sucks; 4/19 shooting and fouled out. Honestly I think JJ Redick is a better shooter and defender. Such an unbelievable amount of fouls and no idea why Jameer Nelson took so few shots in the second half, mother fucker was on fire in the first.

lame touch foul on Bonner

Oh shit I just remembered the Spurs signed Garrett Temple, GO SPURS

The Free Throw difference is insane. Its total Bullshit.

[Moss]

what the fuck I hadn't realized, FTA is 28-6 in favor of the Mavs, that's retarded

[GRT]

I know, those free throws by Dampier were total bullshit. What kind of stupidass refs would call those tickytack fouls?

[Moss]

They just showed a replay of the worst transition defense, evar

The blazers are starting off well, but I doubt this will last.

I was actually impressed with that 11-0 run towards end of the 2nd quarter, I like their chances if this pace keeps up.

[Zoolander]

Jeese I didn't realize Greg Oden did play 21 games this season and avgd 11.1 pts, 8.5 reb and 2.3 blocks. That is not bad at all considering the guy has had so many health issues. If only he could get healthy lol, this Blazers team would be pretty boss. They can clearly compete with the Suns.

Ya its too bad This game is amazing so far though... looks like we actually have a really good chance even without Roy :D Bayless bossin it up.

[Heavencloud]

Fuck ya 7 point game blazers up with 1:29 left :D :D First away team to win maybe!?

[Akiyama]

LOL HOLY SHIT if a three would have gone down

[Man0warr]

Gah I do not want Portland to make it to the Semis.

79% of teams that win the first game in a 7 game series win the whole series.

I really thought Nashs' three was going in though haha.

[Akiyama]

God damn the Suns are huge chokers.

Hah, take that, you pessimist!

God damn the Suns are huge chokers.

I think they'll get it figured out. In one game, the Blazers can overcome the loss of Roy, as they've won key road games without him all season (@Lakers, @Spurs, @Mavs, I think @Suns). But I think in a seven game series, the Suns will come back and figure out how to take advantage of him not being there, and end up advancing. That being said, there's only 7 games difference between the #1 seed and the #8 seed in the west. There's not that much difference between any two teams.

[GRT]

blazers guarded amare/nash pick-n-rolls like a boss, that's how they won

[Byrd]

Blazers closing in on a 2-year deal with Camby.

I'm surprised, as they'll have Camby, Przybilia and Greg Oden at center now, seems like a lot of money at one position. Of course, the odds of all three of them being healthy at any one time is pretty low. Regardless, I wonder if they'll try to trade Przybilia during the off-season.
