Damn, greg was doing that crazy ass posting style back in 2004? and lol@me. I've evolved so much.

And see you later, Memphis. Shouldn't be here in the first place. Man, Spurs get Lakers with no Kobe, Warriors with no Lee, and this Memphis team that can't shoot.

QUOTE (Boogua @ May 25, 2013 -> 07:30 PM) I don't know what this means. Are you trying to say that dunking over Chris Andersen is more impressive than dunking on Ewing because other great players did it? Point is Ewing got dunked on regularly. It wasn't some impossible or impressive feat to dunk on him. The Pippen dunk was great. But George just danced right by LeBron and threw that s*** down with some viciousousness (I know I totally botched the word, not sure if it even is a word. who cares).

QUOTE (Boogua @ May 25, 2013 -> 06:59 PM) Ewing was a bit better than Birdman. The George dunk was gross though. I agree Dude, everybody dunked on Ewing. MJ, Pip, Penny, Kemp, etc. There's even some vid of quinarvy dunking on Ewing. I just gotta find it.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 24, 2013 -> 10:26 PM) Retired in 2003. 1998. The Wizards never happened. Trust me. It didn't.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 24, 2013 -> 02:33 PM) http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/9307574/...-michael-jordan LMAO, so J4L what is your response to this? Well, Phil is like 70 or somethin' around there. I can understand how the brain deteriorates when you're that old. That's like saying to start a team you'd go with Mutombo over LeBron. Nonsense.

QUOTE (Boogua @ May 24, 2013 -> 11:44 AM) Lateral quickness is a part of athleticism. A dunk video? Seriously? Is Jacob tucker a better athlete than Scottie pippen too? Who? Anyway, George is taller, longer and can jump higher. The dunk vid I posted just cinched it. There ain't five mofos in the world that can do that s***. Lateral is probably a wash. It is what it is, dude. George is right there with healthy back Dwight, Blake, Westbrook, LeBron, pre-vagina Rose, Josh Smith, AI2 as the sickest athletes the sport has ever seen.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 24, 2013 -> 10:16 AM) Michael Phelps is a better athlete. That doesn't mean I want him guarding LeBron James. Your statement meant nothing until you added the Scottie Pippen part. Just admit it was a stupid statement. For once. Hmmm. 6'9, freakishly athletic, octo-arms - you're right. Should've put Tyler Hansbrough on him.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 24, 2013 -> 08:13 AM) Dude, come on. If you say someone is a more athletic version than x, then you are saying they are equal to x but they are also more athletic. If I said "Adam Dunn is a more athletic version than Jim Thome," how do you interpret that? That, and you are saying that Paul George is better than one of the 50 greatest players of all time. You are going to take some heat for that regardless of anything else. Whatever. I know what I meant. Even if I didn't word it correctly. But George is indeed the better athlete.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 23, 2013 -> 11:27 PM) I can't wait to see what kind of reaction the crowd gives Ozzie... He's going to be there? Did I miss something?

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 23, 2013 -> 10:31 PM) That s*** happened last season. Guy got found, called out, ended up doing a live chat with Deadspin, where it turned out he was an uninteresting loser. I see. But yeah. You definitely got to be careful out in public now. I don't even drink at bars anymore (I act a fool when I'm drunk) because dumbasses are takin' pics or recording with their phones and uploading it to youtube.

QUOTE (knightni @ May 23, 2013 -> 08:44 PM) Yep. Read the description. lol. You can't hide in 2013. I guarantee you that dude's name, life, personal info, etc gets out and he's gonna be embarrassed as f***.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ May 23, 2013 -> 04:39 PM) What are you basing it on? A dunk video? My eyes? QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 23, 2013 -> 04:42 PM) It's quite possibly the dumbest s*** ever posted on this board. And that says a lot. You say that once a day. Get off me.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ May 23, 2013 -> 04:18 PM) Yeah that's still a dumb statement. Other than the fact it's true, what's dumb about it?

PaulGeorgeisAmoreATHLETICversion of Pippen I didn't say he was a better player.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 23, 2013 -> 03:47 PM) It's LeBron James with 2.2 seconds left. There's no reason to not try your best to ensure he doesn't beat you. Making anyone guard LeBron 1-on-1 in a pressure situation with 2.2 seconds left, f***ing even Michael Jordan, would be just stupid. And it was. 2.2 seconds. Help defense. It's not rocket science. Ok, and what the hell does Hibbert have to do with your scenario? They could've done exactly what you're advocating without him. LeBron made a bloody tampon out of George and that was it. and get outta here with it's "LeBron with 2.2 seconds left." I don't care if it's LeBron mixed with some Durant and Chris Paul. YOU DO NOT get beat like that. George is a more athletic version of Scottie Pippen. That should never happen in that situation.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 23, 2013 -> 03:34 PM) Why? That's exactly what the Pacers would have wanted - let anyone but LeBron beat you. I'll take Bosh throwing up an open 3 any day over LeBron with an open... layup. And Hibbert had to be on the floor to accomplish this? This is all on Paul George. It's pathetic he's getting a free pass for some horrificly bad defense.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ May 23, 2013 -> 03:21 PM) Right, because big men never cheat off guys like that to overload the strong side of the floor. Look at the Melo clip again. I can't quite tell who it is, but there's a guy WIDE open on the opposite wing from Carmelo's drive. Hibbert and West are both chilling out next to Chandler and Hibbert drops off to cover the rim on that play. Yeah, I've seen it a few times. And it still means nothing. When LeBron blew by George in rapid fashion like he did there's nothing you can do at the point.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ May 23, 2013 -> 03:12 PM) It's an example of why it's generally a good idea to have your best rim protector on the floor. He and George are the main reasons the Pacers had the best defensive efficiency in the league. George was similarly torched on that play, but they had a big man there to challenge the shot. And in last night's case he's guarding Battier or Bosh and is nowhere near the rim anyway. Once LeBron flew by George, that was it. It was either going to be a layup, dunk or foul.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 23, 2013 -> 03:09 PM) Nothing we didn't already know - that you talk out of your ass. lol. Hilarious coming from you. Again, that vid didn't prove a damn thing.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ May 23, 2013 -> 03:03 PM) <!--quoteo(post=2807213:date=May 23, 2013 -> 02:07 PM:name=Jordan4life)-->QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 23, 2013 -> 02:07 PM) <!--quotec-->Thank you. And this goes back to what I said earlier about Hibbert. He's tall, wide, and takes up space. When he actually has to move his big ass and guard somebody, especially out on the perimeter, he's a liability. I understand why he was left out. Ask Carmelo about that. What the hell did this video prove?

QUOTE (thxfrthmmrs @ May 23, 2013 -> 02:10 PM) But you have to consider there is no way Lebron won't go to the basket for a game winning layup without a rim protector, especially after what happened at the end of regulation. I would rather let the perimeter guys beat me than to give up the layup, and they only need a 2 to win, so they would like to get something at the rim versus taking a 3. So it's either Frank Vogel didn't expect a layup from Lebron, or he expected Paul George to stop Lebron from getting to the rim. Both of which are mistakes regardless. He should have put Hibbert in, twice. Dude, there's was two fricking seconds on the clock. If Paul George can't stay in front of LeBron for two seconds, then that's on him. Bet you he wouldn't get by Kobe in two seconds.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ May 23, 2013 -> 02:01 PM) Meh. Unless Hibbert was standing under the basket and never guarded Battier or Bosh he wasn't going to be able to do anything on that play. On the prior possession where LeBron got a layup it was a different story though. That last possession was a well designed play by Spoelstra (pains me to say that) and a huge f*** up by George. He got himself way out of possession and had no chance to even slow LeBron down once he caught the ball. Thank you. And this goes back to what I said earlier about Hibbert. He's tall, wide, and takes up space. When he actually has to move his big ass and guard somebody, especially out on the perimeter, he's a liability. I understand why he was left out.
