Bounce,
Who is making excuses? I'm just saying the Big Fat Ass should shut his hole when he has half the Dream Team to back up his talk.
Where was the pussy last year when it came down to him vs. Tim Duncan? That's right, getting slapped.
AHF
Saying that IF the Lakers win next year, there will be a bunch of asterisks next to it, is pretty much making excuses. You did it, and picnroll did it.
If they win, it's cause they played the best ball. Regardless of who is on the team. They're a good team, but they're very far from unbeatable.
I've got a great idea, The Small Market Player Loaner Plan. Every year one small market team gets to pick one star each from two other small market teams to add to their roster to compete for a championship. Let's say once in ten years we get KG and TMac to add to TD and the rest off our squad. At the end of the year we return KG and TMac to Minny and Orlando respectively. Of course over the course of the ten years we have to loan out TD a couple of times. What do you think, The Small Market Player Loaner Plan? Why should LA have all the fun?
Bounce it would have been cool if Payton and Malone did what they did but went to say Orlando with TMac or Minny with KG, teams like they came from that had struggled for years to get a ring and done it collectively. And it's not just a Laker hater thing.
T Park Num 9, I think you scared away the Beijing kid with those harsh comments.
Shaq talking?
WGAF?
In fact, let's think about this. He talks trash about everyone and every team...especially the Spurs in the past.
BUT, after this year, he's more respectful of the Spurs because he knows what they are capable of. He knows Duncan is a better player than him, and he knows that Duncan can easily get the better of him in a clutch game like Game 6 this past year.
He'll trash up Sacramento to no end, because he doesn't fear them. With the Spurs, he's more careful now with his words.
That's the closest he will come to saying the Spurs are capable of threatening their championship hopes.
Plus, take it as a compliment that the Lakers and Shaq see it as necessary to get Payton and Malone to counter to regain their crown from the Spurs.
I think an L.A./S.A. western conference final would be AWESOME! And, I believe the Spurs would come out victorious.
The Lakers play the best individual focused basketball. The Spurs play the best team ball...Tim is THE man, but he's also the consumate teammate.
Spurs are going to get better, Shaq knows that...that's why he chose his words carefully.
Also, note he didn't want to mention anyone else. Just the Spurs. To him, they are the compe ion...not the Kings or Mavs. Why bother mentioning them? I see this as good news for us coming from the greatest overrated basketball player in the history of the NBA.
Bounce,
I''m not making excuses, I'm stating facts.
If people can give the Spurs an asterick for it being a 50 game season, or more comically due to Webber, Dirk, etc. hitting the mat, why couldn't LA have one for having a bunch of sellouts on their team?
AHF
Yes. LA's scared enough of TD that they had to call in the Space Cowboys to save their ass. Dammit I want to see the Spurs drop their asses so bad it isn't funny. No matter what you try Lakers...the Simulator Crew has figured you out.
Don't you think his "harsh" comments proved exactly what I said? :wackoT Park Num 9, I think you scared away the Beijing kid with those harsh comments.
Beijing, I can't say that you didn't deserve what was said. If you're gonna insult someone, you have to expect them to say something back.
That's cool MAT.Beijing, I can't say that you didn't deserve what was said. If you're gonna insult someone, you have to expect them to say something back.
It wasn't the first time he used similar against me when he was losing an argument or got pissed off for whatever reason. I believe many posters who ain't Spurs homers have had similar experience. :argue
But it was the first time I said something back. And it was probably the last.
Hmmm...everyone on this board es about the Lakers, and how they have no talent on their team, and they're just a two man team. Then they go out and get solid players, and now everyone es about how they have too much talent?
And Shaq always talks trash, so comparing how he talks trash to how Ali talks trash is definitely on the mark. I think he makes it more for the media to feed off from than anything else.
is this the classic
The good ole days, when the Lakers/Spurs rivalry was at its peak.
As Shaq would say. I'm not worried about the San Antonio Queens. San Antonio are Sacramental are one and of the same choke.
Considering how close the Heat came to being eliminated, it would be foolish to say you weren't worried.
The tears were forming in Lebron's eyes. The world saw 'em.
Close doesn't matter. The fact is they didn't lose. And the Queens fell apart again just like in 2002 (Sacramental) and 2004.
uh, Shaq is retired, you stupid
Welcome to the off season.
LMAO, who's the stupid here really?
Not sure if serious.....
are you serious?
Actually the Lakers won against the Spurs that year against the Lakers and had to add a second 7 footer to win again in 2005.
I'm a spurs fan but I have to say that he was right...
