NBA Playoffs

So...it's improbable for the Hornets, and Spurs to reach the finals even though they lost 1 more regular season game than the Lakers? Not to mention the Spurs are the defending champs. Oh and let's not forget about the Jazz, who lost a whopping 2 more games than the Lakers.

Oh, and last I checked, the Cavaliers were in the finals last year. Detroit is always in the mix, year in and out and have a title to show for it. When was the last time the Celtics won anything again? They had an extremely great regular season, big fucking deal. They were almost knocked out by the Hawks. A team who won 29 less games than the Celtics. What expert opinion have you read on that?
 
I think you are making too big a deal out of this. I think you are making good points and that it is certainly not out of the question, but I just think it is less probable than the Celtics and/or the Lakers making the finals.

Well, a Boston team is in the mix so the hate factor (King D), will tend to overreact. Its easy to root and jump on any teams bandwagon that verses Boston.
The fact is Boston and about 6-other teams have a legit chance to win this thing...will be fun to watch it all playout.
 
if the hornets beat the lakers it wouldnt suprise me at all, chris paul is playing like a man on fire and the team around him is really underated, and game 1 of celts/cavs was really close, that could go either way, the cavs or hornets making the finals definitly isn't improbable

Well, you are the one who made the bold statement, I was questioning why and where you got the idea.

That's funny, I don't remember jumping on any bandwagon.
 
Well, It seems you bring up every team that plays, wins, etc., against a Boston team and have a negative attitude while doing it. All the while displaying banners that say stuff like "Go Colts, Superbowl bound baby"! Save that for if and when they win the division and actually make it to the Superbowl.

The Celtics have made some great moves going into the season, had a great record, a great turnaround, are a contender and you say "big fucking deal". You would not say "bfd" if this was your team.

The act is getting old, we know you hate Boston teams the same as I hate NY, LA, your Colts etc. Sure I'll give a jab at em every now and then but atleast I can see and respect the talent, realistic chances, or whatever of said teams.

Dude, shut the fuck up, seriously. You say some of the most ridiculous shit when it comes to sports and then try to act all humble towards other teams to make yourself look like you aren't being a homer.

Yeah, it's no secret that I hate anything that comes out of the New England area, so what? I never once said the Celtics were a bad team. I never once said the Lakers were a bad team. I never once said either of those teams don't have a good chance of making it to the finals. What I did say, in reply to cookiecutter's obnoxious post, was that you shouldn't be waving off all of ther other teams left in the playoffs when you have the defending champs and the really good, really young hornets team who only lost 1 more game than the Lakers. Not to mention a really good Jazz team, all in the west.

In the east, the Pistons (which I hate almost as much as anything from New England) who have been a front-runner in the east for years now, the Cavaliers who are the defending eastern conference champs (which the celtics barely beat the other night), and an improving magic team. To discredit any of those teams just because of what "expert opinions" say, or just because they had worse records than the Lakers or Celtics is fucking ridiculous.

As for my sig, suck my ass. I can praise the Colts all I want. You can praise the Cheatriots all you want too. I'm not guaranteeing they are going to be in the super bowl (like you and all the other pats fans around here did). It's more of a, "I have faith in the team and hope they make it back" statement.

The Celtics have made some great moves going into the season, had a great record, a great turnaround and you say "big fucking deal". You would not be saying this if it was your team.

Yeah, I said big fucking deal. They did exactly what the Patriots did. Went out and picked up all the top free agents they could. Had a stellar regular season, and haven't proven shit in the post-season to this point. But yet people like cookiecutter, and apparently the stories he reads, are saying it's improbable that any other team wins the east? Are you fucking shitting me?

As for my team, yeah sure, I'd be happy they had a great regular season and all that, but unless they won a championship, it's all for naught (re: 18-1). So no, you won't ever see me sit here and praise the Colts (pacers) for having such a miraculous regular season, and then nearly get knocked out by a shitty (albeit you and upcoming hawks) team.

I could care less if you think this "act is getting old." First off, it's not an act. Secondly, eat an elephant cock.

I have nothing to respect from the Celtics. They've been complete and utter shit until this season, now all of the sudden I have to like them? Like I have to say that Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, and Paul Pierce deserve a rings (which is what alot of douche analysts and "experts" are saying")? Fuck that. Earn it, and then you'll get my respect.

edit: Ok I've calmed down. Don't take what I said personally. =P
 
Again, people like you (in this particular context, not overall or making value judgments on your entire existence, keep in mind) are one of the main reasons sports puts me off. Can you really not see that you're being way too bullheaded about it? I don't follow sports and you know I don't, but you are really being pretty ridiculous. I find it hard not to comment on a lot of your bad logic, general shit attitude and bad sportsmanship that you proudly proclaim to despise.

I'm not into sports, but if I were, it wouldn't be to be a dick to everyone who disagrees with my point of view.

Just saying.

You can tell me to gtfo of this thread now.
 
The Celtics could lose very easily to Detroit or Orlando. I hope they beat King Chokeinpressuresituations and the Cavs because I hate them.

He wasn't disagreeing with anyone. He was just pointing out muzmaze's shit logic tbh

Not really. Have you read beyond the last like 4 posts? It truly is my job to enforce the difference between differing opinion and relative close-mindedness to being a hot-headed arrogant jerk about things you don't agree with, and I'm sorry if people forget this or choose not to respect it. The former is fine, and I expect it because this is a metal forum where people of extreme temperaments gather; the latter is a no-no, and that's just how it's going to be. I do not want to be the thought police, but mind-numbingly one-sided thought just really never flies at all and I have to make an exception when someone starts being plain out ridiculous.

Bullheaded? Ya probably. But that doesn't make my points any less valid. Remember, I'm not the one who said it would be improbable for any other team outside of the Lakers and Celtics to make it to the finals. That, my friend, is a ridiculous statement.

New Orleans making it isn't improbable at all, but the Cavs getting through Detroit and Boston is pretty improbable.

And going through the Spurs and Lakers would be easier? Come on. It's no easy task, but not as impossible as some may think.

Lebron chokes now? That's a new one on me.

I do not think improbable was a good word for Nick to use in the first place, but my point does still stand. You could definitely be more civil in arguments, and try not to exercise the un-sportsman-like behavior you apparently abhor in teams you dislike. Just saying. I will stop if you will!

The thing that gets me is the fact it's usually the same 3-4 people who are making some laughable statement about something. meh
