It still hurts

I feel your pain, I truly do. What bothers me the most isn't that someone is saying bad things about the Pistons and glowingly reviewing another team. It's that the Pistons can no longer do anything about shutting them up.

The NBA Finals commericals, those have been the worst. But still, not as bad as last year's NBA Finals. I was in a funk three solid weeks over that. This, this is more like having to swallow my pride as a fan.

I'm watching the Finals for two players - Jerry Stackhouse and Alonzo Mourning. I'm rooting for Dallas, by the way. It's nothing personal, Spurs fans, there just happens to be a former Piston on the other team who's still welcomed here, despite Piston success in his absence. 5 years of cheering for Stack, I just want to see him soaked in a bottle of champagne, cradling the Larry O'Brien trophy at the end of this. And if the Heat win, well, I'll be disappointed. But I'll just look at Zo's face and forget about everyone else.

ok,may be you are right,and you did have take what you want.but the winner of one year cannot mean anything,and you haven't been the 1st of this year.
God have gave you good luck,could you please give us a tiny tiny place to heal our hurt?
This is your happy time,but what you are doing is not share it with your buddy,but send such “funny” word.that's what the mav's fans behaver?

My post is actually for Spurs' fan who is still whining about the refs.
You actually sounds like a Spurs fan who has class, so you're ok in my book.

get over it

With me the pain resurfaced when the mavs won the western conference. Both my wife and I are hardcore fans and it will take all summer for us to get over the loss. wake me up in November.

I can't help but feel for them, guys like Gary Paton. I've always thougt of him as a class act...

I feel similarly but the other way. I'm rooting for the Heat and the only player I'll be happy for if the Mavs win is Darrell Armstrong (I'm also a longtime Magic fan). That guy has more heart and gives more energy night after night than practically anyone else in the league.

This is not going to be fancy, but some things I had to get off my chest. Every time I see something about how great the Mav's are, it still urks me. If it weren't for bad calls by the Ref's we wouldn't be talking about Dallas at all, but instead about the back-to-back championship of the Spurs.

But in spite of my hopes for Avery Johnson to do well, I also hope for the old folks in the Heat's team. So many have given their best playing years to teams that could not learn how to win. I can't help but feel for them, guys like Gary Paton. I've always thougt of him as a class act, and he put in a lot of years with a team that the players just wouldn't put out the effort as he did to win.

Now these guy's finally got to a team that can get that elusive ring for them. So I can't help it, being an old guy my self (70) hopping they win the big prise. It looks like Shaq is doing better and not being the Bull he was in LA. He is now playing Basketball just like the others and in his case taking advantage of his size to win it all. Wade is already a great player, I'm sure it didn't hurt that he had an old superstar to guide him along.
