This Tiger offense is awesum.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ May 22, 2013 -> 10:54 PM) Miami is gonna win but this series will be a battle. No doubt. I don't want to see a battle. I want to see the Heat lose. Pacers get over 70 points from West/Hibbert/George and still lose. Heat hadn't played in a week. This is the game the underdog has to get to have any chance.

lol. this series is over. Wtf just happened? A layup?

lmao

That was ice.

Ha. Unbelievable.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ May 22, 2013 -> 09:55 PM) Birdman has been huge for the Heat so far. Pacers hanging in there behind their bigs though. He's just been a good signing overall. The Heat depth now compared to '11, or even last year, has improved dramatically. They've got a different guy outside of the big 3 stepping up in every series. Ray Allen torched the Bucks. Cole killed the Bulls. Now Anderson tonight.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ May 22, 2013 -> 09:55 AM) SHOULDER AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH You know it's inevitable. If not this year, soon.

Will somebody get the Grizzlies off my flat-screen? I can't stand this type of ball. Teams with mediocre talent that totally yuck the game up to get by.

Dwight in Houston would be sick.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 21, 2013 -> 06:24 AM) Goldschmidt: 1.030 OPS, 25 years old, due only $30 million over next 5 seasons Konerko: .612 OPS, 37 years old, FA after this season Goldschmidt doesn't have twtw. it's all about twtw.

QUOTE (Jillian Michaels' Abs @ May 20, 2013 -> 02:04 PM) I've heard that this trade is agreed upon in principal, pending a brain scan and psychological evaluation of the Diamondbacks GM. Nice

QUOTE (Boogua @ May 20, 2013 -> 01:59 PM) Only because the Heat wouldn't be a part of the series. There wouldn't be one hall of famer on the court if those teams played. Hall of famer? There wouldn't even be one all-star on the court (George is borderline at best).

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 19, 2013 -> 07:55 AM) If you are looking for something, ANYTHING, to keep that from happening, then you shouldn't have been looking towards the Knicks. The Heat would have raped them. I know your super hyperbolizer has declared the Pacers less than the 1988 clippers, but they play a much more frustrating brand of basketball against the heat. George and Stephenson will give Wade and Lebron problems with their D. They both will get theirs but they would have destroyed the Knicks "defense". I love how you rip zoom for saying Knicks suck and come back with Hibbert is fat and slow. Lol. Mahinmi and West are going to give the Heat some problems down low with Hibbert. That's because he is fat and slow. He's tall, WIDE, and takes up a lot of space (which is enough to be considered good by 2013 big man standards). He averages under 30 MPG because he gets winded easily. 12 and 8? c'mon now. And he's going to have to guard Bosh this series. It's going to be raining jumpers or Bosh will just blow right by him. I know you big ten guys watch that crap and think it's real basketball, but it's not. That's what the pacers play like. Doesn't work in the vastly new and improved NBA.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ May 18, 2013 -> 11:11 PM) Dallas won because Lebron played like Luol Deng in that series, and they still had to hit like 80% of their 3's in games 5 and 6 (stats estimated). Dirk was also significantly more efficient than Melo. That was also when Joel Anthony and Mike Bibby's corpse were getting significant playing time for the Heat. Oh, and the Mavericks held the Heat under 95 in each of their first four games while hitting 9 (a loss), 8, 6 and 4 3's before getting hot. Other than that, exactly the same scenario. The scenario is simple: play good D, pound the glass (Miami is the worst rebounding team in the league) and punish the Heat for playing small. It's not likely, but neither is New York beating a team that's far superior to them in nearly every way and almost as good as they are at their one strength (arguably better since they hit for a higher percentage). My scenario happened in '11. Your scenario hasn't worked since the 90's. Whatever. I think we can both agree that the Heat are going to win the title. As somebody who really doesn't want to see that happen, I was looking for anything, and I mean ANYTHING, that could possibly take place to keep that from occurring. I'm not even sure this Pacer team is as good as the 2007 Bulls.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ May 18, 2013 -> 10:45 PM) It's hard to make a ton of 3's over a 7 game series, especially against a good defensive team. How did that work out against Indiana? Ask any basketball coach out there, they'd much rather take their chances with good defense than chucking 3's. I don't think Indiana is going to win, but trying to win a shootout against the Heat usually isn't going to end well. In case you didn't notice, they shot almost 40% from 3 on the year themselves on nearly 9 makes a game. They don't "chuck" threes. They hit a a ton of them on a well above league average percentage. I don't know what the numbers were against Indiana. I'm sure the numbers were down. Point is still the same. We saw Dallas beat the Heat playing a similar style. Would the Knicks have won? Hell no. I would've given them a 10% chance at best. You can't even come up with a realistic scenario for this boring ass, big 10-like, crap Pacer team. That's all I was saying. s*** is over before it even starts.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ May 18, 2013 -> 10:33 PM) They do suck, they've been medicore defensively this year and aren't that great offensively unless they hit a s***-load of 3's or Melo plays out of his mind. The odds of that happening four times against a good opponent are not high. Their second best scorer is Ray Felton for christ's sake. I don't expect the Pacers to win, but at least they defend and have interior scoring. No. That would be J.R. Smith. Interior scoring? Who? Hibbert? lol. He sucks. He's fat and slow. This is the ONLY time you'll get me to agree with booqua. Hibbert is good by today's big man standards. That's it. Unless they hit a s*** load of 3's? That was my point. That's exactly what they do. They only set records for makes and takes on a very good 37% from the field. I'll take my chances with that over Roy Hibbert show.

NY was 3-1 against Miami (though one of those wins were with 'bron, pants, and chalmers out). Yeah, I know. Regular season means nothing, etc. On paper, Knicks matched up much better. Indiana is a worse version of Memphis.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ May 18, 2013 -> 10:25 PM) Knicks suck. The only way they'd have any chance against the Heat is if Carmelo out-played Lebron the whole series, which has about the same odds of happening as a clean STD test from Snooki. Spectacular analysis.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 18, 2013 -> 10:03 PM) The pacers have a better shot than the Knicks ever did. The Knicks are paper tigers Disagree. This is, like, the exact same Pacer team that lost in 6 with no Bosh last year. Heat are deeper and have swag now. Pacers don't have the firepower. It was at least conceivable that the Knicks' potency from deep could give them a small chance.

Welp, congrats to the three-time eastern conference champion Heat. I thought maybe with their 3-point shooting that the Knicks could get hot (kinda like the Mavs in '11) and possibly shock the world. Pacers? Boring. Heat in 5.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 18, 2013 -> 09:37 PM) All time choke by Carmelo in this quarter Yup. Shumpert/Copeland brought them back. 'melo goin' 03 Cubs in this mofo.

Carmelo is a f***in' moron. Dumb player.

QUOTE (buhbuhburrrrlz @ May 18, 2013 -> 08:57 PM) Knicks down 10, Shumpert hits 3 three's in a row, and Smith follows it up with another. Should be crazy finish. Yeah, Knicks looked dead ( sans Carmelo) before the aerial attack.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ May 18, 2013 -> 06:09 PM) This was rather unnecessary.
