For old time rivalry's sake though, why would you want a Piston to coach the Bulls? Really, I probably wouldn't want KC Jones, Larry Bird or any former Celtics to coach the Lakers either. Maybe it is just me, but it feels "wrong" in a way.
yeah but losing feels much more wrong! I would take pretty much any coach that could make the bulls win at this point. How bout that game the other night against the bucks?? 151 points! damn that was a fun game to watch. I've never seen so many shots go in or two teams score like that. (and no i don't want the golden state warriors or nuggest often).

I hope you guys get bynum back for the first round. the nuggest could be a tought first round match-up. Pray to god your lakers bring on the defense cause I don't think you can out score them easily.

Games played by Penny Hardaway, first five seasons: 82, 77, 82, 59, 19.

Games played by Dwyane Wade, first five seasons: 61, 77, 75, 51, 51.

Playoff games played by Penny Hardaway, first five seasons: 3, 21, 12, 5, 0.

Playoff games played by Dwyane Wade, first five seasons: 13, 14, 23, 4, 0.

(In other words ... uh-oh.)
well the playoff stats don't count. Your team has to get into the playoffs and be good enough to advance for you to play a substantial amount of games. But I think d-wade's case is different. The past two seasons he never took the time to fully recover. Also his skills aren't diminishing at the rate penny's did...

If I were Mark Cuban, I would probably hate George for refusing to be traded to the Nets, thus costing Cuban an additional $11M to get Kidd AND another first round exit. Like I said before, Dallas made a trade solely for the sake's of making a trade, and it is going to fail!
If the mavs make it out of the first round it won't be a fail. Wait to see what happens there before you judge. I think kidd's effect in the playoffs is really what dallas was trading for. If i was cuban I would have told george he was out either way and to just take the trade. It's not like he really helps that much. He's a greedy role player... and Marion- psh... that asshole is laughing all the way to the bank.

If I am not wrong, I think we only get THREE games per week during the entire frigging first round of the playoffs!!! Damn right, THREE frigging games a WEEK!!! So I am just go to watch whatever I can catch, and hope the Lakers get to the WCF. Or else I don't think I will get to see them in action much at all. It sucks, you know? It is like you know your high school sweet heart still looks cute and hot after all these years, and she is now moving next door to you, but you just have different schedules and never really see each other at all.... or whatever...
Dude you have to subscribe to nba league pass or something man. these playoffs are going to own. You don't want to miss anything. I'm scheduling my job around the playoffs.
