Spice diay ha? Pwede... ehehehe

Kani ai:

"the floppers prevailed today," Shaq insisted, "They know we let them have one."

I think the Suns' whining is getting to the Big Cactus. Maybe we should call him The Big Whiner now?

And I'm just waiting for the time to call Steve Kerr as the Big *****.

[yokam]

Whining? That ain't whining because we all knew how the Spurs won that game.. with a big help from lady luck. . Big *****? The Spurs needed 2 OTs, Finley and Duncan to hit lucky shots, and an super extra effort from Manu Ginobili to at least seal game 1. I guess the defending champs now know who are they dealing with.

Defending champs are supposed to play with poise and not to struggle to win right? So it's the right time to judge if the Shaq trade really worked or not because the way I see it, San Antonio should've blown Phoenix out in game 1 if they had Shawn Marion instead of Shaq. :mrgreen:

Sorry. In my book, there's no such thing as luck. It's like saying that the Force is strong in the Spurs. Sa salida ranang chamba papart. They used the same court, same ball, and the same basketball rings.

Fact of the matter is that the defending champs delivered, and the posers faltered. Plain and simple. :mrgreen:

Again, another flawed premise. I'm sure with your researching skills (and unlimited time at hand to do that), you'll see that not all defending champions are dominant in all of their games. The Jordan-led Bulls struggled with the Suns, the Sonics, and the Jazz during their respective Finals. The important thing is not how they won the game but the fact that they win is what counts, which the Kleenex Suns have yet to taste, sorry.

It's been said again and again and again; in the playoffs, regular season games don't matter no more. And again, the Kleenex Suns are experiencing it all over again.

The Spurs play horrible basketball for 3 quarters and STILL win the ballgame. Now THAT's a championship-caliber team. :mrgreen:

P.S.
Spurs got called for more fouls
Suns had a 16-pt lead
Suns had more free throws

.. and they still lost... tsk tsk tsk... wow...

[sadahkingjam]

the Bulls didnt really struggle against the Sonics.. @ takielarla do some research dude......

the bulls were up 3 -0 against the Sonics before they won 2 straight then the bulls wrap it in 6 gets.. kung nakakita ka sa NBA finals 96 its very clear nga dominant kaayo ang Bulls,, that kung nakakita ka?
sa Phoenix ra og sa Jazz sila naglisod.

[tackielarla]

Hmmm... if wala naglisod ang Bulls sa Sonics, then basing from yokam's premise na "Defending champs are supposed to play with poise and not to struggle to win", then why didn't they completely blowout the Sonics 4-0? Why did it have to reach a game 6? Nagpapildi lang ang Bulls for 2 games?

Manu Ginobili won the NBA’s sixth man award

probably because they want to win and celebrate at their own homecourt?

Aaaaaahhh... uhm, ok I believe ya.

BTW, Rodman is an alien that's why he had those monster rebound games which helped them win that series. Taga Pluto na sha.

mao ni ang tubag bai.. maglisod ko og explain, pero kung nakakita jud ka sa finals.. grabe effortless kaayo ang pag ka champion sa Bulls unlike sa Jazz og Suns na grabe hinago an jud..

its not belittling the sonics, but they can really wrap it in 4, but isnt it too nice to win it in your home floor....

winning 72 is an effortless season from them.. even beating the Power house Knicks in 5 and sweeping Shaqs Magic .

for me that team is still the greatest ever.. and I have so much fun back then.

grabe ang competition pag 96 oi.. Houston, San Antonio, New York, Indiana, Sonics, Phoenix, Orlando, Utah bisan asa ani na team sa una ibutang karon na generation champion cguro.. pila kabook hall of famers ani?

the league was dominated by big men, yet Jordan's Bulls dominated them all.. that separates MJ from Kobe..

thats why MJ and Kobe comparisson is freaking Hilarious... bisan unsaon layo ra jud kobe kang MJ.
