Joey, it's mainly racism. They root for the lesser of 2 evils. One black guy had sex with a loose white chick, and (in their mind) got away with something(even though she bragged about being with him.) Pierce n' Garnet are just as unclassy as this guy is, but they didn't have the same well publicized extra-marrital sex with a loose white girl(who liked it enough to brag about it.)

:rolleyes: Right.. I honestly don't give a **** what he does in his personal life. Even without that nonsense in Colorado, he's still a petulant prima donna. He's a scumbag with a great PR team (here Kobe: smile for the white people, don't use too much slang, put your kids on your lap, don't lick your lips too many times). KG, on the other hand, is the epitome of class, and unlike Kobe, he doesn't try to come off as the perfect human being.

I really like Garnett, he is probably my favorite player, since way back when I saw him in a pickup game about 3 miles from my house BUT last night he was acting kinda nuts when that chick was trying to interview him. he gets a pass because of how bad he wanted that championship, but he should just said "not right now" or something to that effect instead of going bonkers into the mic

Gets a pass? The hell did he do wrong? If he goes "not right now", people bash him for not doing the interview. I thought it was amazing, and proves my point about him not trying to come across as the perfect human being.

Maybe I just saw it wrong, it looked like he was acting thug and was swearing and all that stuff that people hate. I was halfway paying attention

You've got to be kid'n me about K.G. The guy uses more foul language on the court than anyone I have ever seen. Each time he is at the foul line the camera catches the guy doing it. I suppose what he did during the middle of the 4th quarter was classy huh? That's not the epitome of class. Duncan is a pretty classy player(if you need an example.) Some of the guys around him aren't classy, but he is.

Oh no, foul language! He should just clam up like Kobe and say "gee willikers" and all of that so he doesn't scare white people, huh?

Middle of the fourth quarter? Sorry, I must have missed that while trying to contain my fear that Kobe "wouldn't let the Lakers blah blah blah".. Your golden boy **** the bed, and instead of coming to grips with him being somewhere in between Vince Carter and Michael Jordan, you predictably deflect the discussion to a completely unrelated topic.

If your asking about the margin of victory, I think it's pretty simple math. Boston made about the same number of 2 point shots as they would normally make, but had an extra 30 points from the combination of free throws and three pointers. In other words, an extra 18 points from three pointers(than their average,) and they made an extra 12 free throws (than normal for them.) They shot very well. They deserved to win. It was a very hot shooting team(much like the years when the Spurs make everything they put up.) We will see how well they shoot next year. They played well defensively, but they were pretty much shooting out of their minds. The defense will remain. The shooting will come and go. It's obvious your attraction to the series had nothing to do with BOSTON, and everything to do with L.A. Your post has nothing in it about BOSTON. Your interest is not in BOSTON . ..."kobe"..."the lakers".... "l.a teams"...If Cali is so bad, then why is it the average house price is like 500k here versus 160k etc. in Pisscola?

What playoff season did the Spurs make everything they put up? I must have missed it. Their best team 99, shot horribly and lost 2 playoff games the entire way.

Healthy Vince or unhealthy Vince??

No, I said he choked in the series. It wouldn't of mattered, because Boston was shooting out of their mind. It would have forced a game 7 though. Kobe needed to make some shots in game 4, and choked. Didn't make open shots. He won't be compared to Jordan after this series. He can't be.

Halfway between Carter and Bryant? Ok now you're being a real Celtics homer. Go get your clover.

The race stuff is also kinda funny.
In the place were I lived everyone hated Bird and really
liked Magic. I was the same. Bird was a loud mouth trash talker.
Magic killed you with a smile.

Not saying racial overtones are not there.
And there is a whole bunch of reverse race stuff when it comes to basketball.
Man I got some stories from both white and black people during tournaments that are hilarious.

Bird is an a.sshole. One of the most vile human beings I've ever met. His face looks like old p.ussy.

You dont need to look anything up.
The Spurs dont win championships with offense.
It is part of the reason people do not like watching them.

Its always been defense. No need to go further.
You can find a game against Phoenix most likely where the shot a high
%, but who does not shoot a high % against Phoenix ever since Nash became their point...

You are mad at Bruce Bowen's superior defensive tactics.

He bullseyed an old lady. I watched it.

His daughters also love him.

Kev I admit the guy was good. I just hated his personality.
And he was/is God-awful ugly. I guess that... that should make
him easier to like. If he was a pretty boy spitting on an old lady...
