I wonder if TNT is going to broadcast anymore Phoenix Suns home games, the arena is relatively empty! And it's a two point game!

[Power Player]

He is a little hater isnt he? Lol. Poor guy.

The suns just have nobody but they play real tough basketball for being a bad team. Feel bad for the fans, but they had a great run there for years.

What's there to hate on? Just think it's funny that you have to go out of your way every other post to mention how you 'spoke' to certain people and it somehow makes your opinion more valid. Not just in this thread, but in the CFB thread as well. That's all. If that makes me a 'hater', so be it.

Dont get all sensitive because some of us have lives and are well connected to some of our favorite teams. For me, its fsu and the magic and i have been a fan of both since birth. You take it like i am looking for approval on here, because in your little world, thats how you see it.

Grow up and take shots at people in person and not on the web. Maybe stop posting creep pics of tennis girls and get a real one while you are at it. It may help with your little habit of being combative online with people you would never say a thing to in person.

You start arguments with everyone in every thread you make. Why is this?

Dude in case you didn't notice I barely even post on here in general anymore, only in O&E. I was making a joke about your little habit, but you took it the wrong way - one of the hazards of the internets obviously. We're all adults here, so like the title says, let's keep it classy.

Arguments in every thread? Hardly. We all like to debate around here, the camaraderie is good. Like I said I was taking a little poke at you, just like the guys on TNT do to each other all of the time ironically, but obv you took it the wrong way. Mike Wilbon also likes to name drop, doesn't make him a bad guy, does it?

Trust me, I have bigger fish to fry than getting offended/jealous just because you live around some guys that play basketball. Just think your habit is a little amusing, nothing more nothing less.

Now off to scubadiving with Nene and Jordan Crawford...

The guys at tnt know each other and do those things in person. This isnt tnt dude. You know better than that, but ill buy your excuse because it is not a big deal. I think your habit of posting creeper pics is amusing as well. Hopefully next time you go scuba diving it wont be with all men.

Just to keep this on topic, is it safe to assume that no team really hits its stride until around feb, and the lakers, heat sucking is bored media overblowing it. Its like the yankees every year starting off terribly and still making the playoffs. Its a repeat every year. Too much sports media coverage.

I wonder if Kenny's reaction to Charles calling another game in NY is scripted, or legit. Something tells me he's actually bitter because this is Charles' second game in a month AND it's in NY. But I think it's scripted because Kenny is a good sport when it comes to jokes and stuff.

Wait, so in one breath you go at me for posting 'creeper' pics of tennis girls, then say 'all men'. Am I a sad loser who can't get any women, or a gay man who gets plenty of men? You tell me since you obviously know more about me than even I do.

Oh, my bad I thought this was all "just joking around" and we were like Kenny and Charles. lol. Sorry to hit a soft spot.

Speaking of Charles, I love the guy announcing games now and then. NBA coverage to me is so much better than any other sport. I watch the heck out of some NBA channel - the coast to coast show where they just show games and comment on them throughout is fantastic.

Somebody quick...FIRE MIKE BROWN! Oh wait...

D'Antoni is a bad coach for the Lakers. We all know it. They could not hire the zen master, but he was the perfect guy to try and get all the egos in the room to gel.

It will be tough for them to move Gasol for any value, but they need to do something.

Here is my insane- "never will happen ever, but it actually makes sense" idea. Move Gasol back to C and trade Dwight for Dirk. Dwight will probably resign with Dallas since he loves Cuban and Dirk gets a real crack at a ring again.

Nash - Kobe - Artest - Dirk - Gasol .

Somebody quick. get that ******* to work on his free throws. Asking a 20 million dollar a yr player to shoot over 50 pct from the line isnt too much to ask.

[tennismonkey]

i think it's funny that dwight doesn't think his free throws are costing them games. and funnier that he doesn't want to listen to advice from nash - only a 90% career from the stripe. what does he know?

I think Dwight Howard should really chat with his other LA rivalry: Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan from the Clippers. Each year, they've added to their game. DeAndre Jordan picked up so many moves in the off season, I think he's more offensively polished than Dwight Howard.

[tennismonkey]

wow. i knew griffin was a terrible free throw shooter but he's at 59%. deandre is at 44% ft shooting. i wonder what starter is the worst free throw shooter in the league?

I'm pretty sure he wasn't plugged in with Redick either while in Orlando.

I use to hate Hack-a-Dwight...now not so much!

Jordan and Dwight are bottom 2 (in that order) - only ones under 50%.
