Watching the 2008-2009 Championship DVD.....loved that team. Snapped Bostons 19 game streak, won back to back road games in Boston/Cleveland(where the Cavs were undefeated and won 65 games...Ariza/Odom/Farmar/Sasha/Fisher hitting all kinds of clutch shots....Pau was GREAT during that run....Kobe...
Repped
I don't care who they are, how they do it, or how many times they do it....a triple double will ALWAYS be a big deal to me. Not a Lebron/Heat fan, but I love watching the guy play. He's a player that I know would succeed in any era.
Wish there was an NBA HOF. I have no problem with the Basketball HOF and do believe that individuals should be honored for major contributions to basketball on a college and international/olympic level. But with the NBA being hands down the premier basketball league, it'd be nice to see the best...
You have to remember back then (before 1979-80 season) NBA Players voted for MVP's, not media.Whoever won the MVP was someone who truly was respected by their peers. Having said that I don't think that Oscar deserved any other MVP's over Wilt/Russell at the time.

Good news
Just was one of those seasons, starting lineup only played what 7 games together ?Would've loved to have seen this team at full force....No excuses though, positive we'll bounce back and will be back on top soon. This organization hasn't let me down, don't see why they'd start now...
45% has never been a horrible shooting percentage for a guard. It's average, majority of guards shoot around 45%. No it's not GREAT and No it shouldn't be celebrated or used to strengthen any argument, but to say shooting 45% is HORRIBLE is ridiculous.
And EVERY playoff game is must win. I...
Lakers showing some serious heart. Hoping I'm not speaking too soon but it's good to see this team fight for a win when it seems this game was over a while ago
One of my favorite albums ever. Love the Minstrel show but I could listen to the The Listening every single day and never get tired of it. I remember my boys telling me to listen to this for the longest and me putting it off. But when i finally sat down and listened I was a fan for life.
Both...
