2010-2011 NBA Thread
QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Apr 16, 2011 -> 07:58 PM) AND a crybaby. Love how when Hedo threw in an entry pass to him in the 4th that was picked off, he just sat in the paint and pouted as Atlanta run down the court and nailed an open 3. Not that either Orlando or Atlanta can beat the Bulls in a 7 game series but I'd really like to see Orlando get eliminated so Howard can't try and beat up on Rose when he goes to the hole.

2010-2011 NBA Thread
QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Apr 16, 2011 -> 01:58 PM) Derrick is amazing. Easily now in the top five of the NBA. My list: 1. Lebron (still pound for pound the best player and most complete player in the game). 2. Dwight (a beast on offense, but the best defender in the NBA). 3. Rose (beast mode 24/7). 4. Kobe (when it matters most, he is the best in the game). 5. Wade (when healthy, he brings it as much as anyone and plays solid D). 6. Durant (best scorer, but doesn't pass and can't play D). Thoughts? Yours? But Derrick continues to climb. If he leads the Bulls to the championship, he might move to #1. It's kind of hard to compare Dwight against the rest but imo if I have to win one game, Howard moves down that list significantly. The guy is obviously a monster and the best defender in the game but he can't will his team to victory like some of these other guys can. And to add to this discussion: It's kind of hard for me to choose. Because LeBron is quite obviously the best player in the game when you look at statistics, nobody in their right mind would argue otherwise. That being said, if I'm in game 7 of the NBA finals and I get to choose only one player at the moment, I'm taking D.Rose or Kobe.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 16, 2011 -> 01:45 PM) I don't know how you can watch this game and still think Rose isn't MVP. He was completely responsible for the 10-0 run the Bulls put on to end the game. He wins games by himself when he has to. He's f***in absurd. On a much different note, I wanna smack Carlos Boozer upside the head sometimes.

Well they can play their best game and we can play like crap but in the end we still have Derrick Rose and they do not.

In your scenario it'd be Spurs-Thunder and Lakers-Mavs in the 2nd round.

4/15 Games
QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 15, 2011 -> 08:12 PM) Could've had Trout. Instead, we take another college football player with a long swing. Stop. Most of the league passed on Trout, it's not like we took a college pitcher who maxes out at 90 mph. Mitchell still has a ton of upside, certainly not time to give up on him.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Apr 14, 2011 -> 07:05 PM) Let's not forget the Canucks rang the post twice on good scoring opportunities. We didn't lose because of bad luck. And Vancouver pretty much went into prevent mode in the 3rd.

2011 White Sox closer
If Santos hasn't been used up until that point he's got to be the next in line to be thrown out there in the 9th. Problem with that is then we're going to have a struggling reliever out there in the 7th or 8th. Hopefully these guys get their s*** together quick because this is becoming an epic disaster at this point.

No Sox, Bulls or Hawks today. I'm beyond lost on what to do with myself for the night.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 14, 2011 -> 07:07 AM) I don't have any recent information, but I know some people who worked with him on projects some time ago... he had a reputation, at least when he was a bigger star, of being one of the biggest pricks to work with in Hollywood. And that's saying something. Hopefully he's come back to earth in recent years. I've heard that as well.

QUOTE (dasox24 @ Apr 14, 2011 -> 02:21 AM) I started taking Muscle Milk last week and have been mixing it with chocolate milk because it tastes better than when mixing it with water... Is that okay to do (even though the directions say "mix with water")? My recommendation would be to mix it with skim milk. I take Whey but I can't do it with water as it just tastes awful so I mix it with skim milk, that way I'm still not taking on a lot of the extra bad stuff but it tastes 100 times better.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 13, 2011 -> 01:35 PM) My weakness is my diet, good most of the time but the random sox game, or weekend totally ruins it. To get really leaned out you need to cut out booze almost 100% which is tough for any of us to do. Ya, you don't need to tell me, booze has always been my weakness, as of this Saturday it'll be a month with out it though and still got until the 30th until I even have a sip of liquor, so hoping I can get myself where I want to be by than.

But I'm 6'3 170 now and have a solid amount of muscle and still haven't lost all the fat off my tummy. No idea how that's possible, just an extremely odd body type I guess? It's weird.

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Apr 13, 2011 -> 11:03 AM) Norm MacDonald's Sport Show is so awesome. You have to like Norm to enjoy it because it basically is all him, but I'm a huge fan and it did not disappoint. Missed it due to the Sox game last night but I was definitely looking forward to it. Big fan of Norm, glad to hear it's off to a good start.
