    Heat-Mavs 2011 NBA Finals

    Depends on how many titles he ends up winning, but probably correct. He definitely gave up his shot at the GOAT title with the move, but to say it tarnishes his titles beyond that is something with which I cannot agree.

    Heat-Mavs 2011 NBA Finals

    Like you I agree that 1 call didn't make the game, but what Chandler did was an offensive foul, and\ illegal screen if not a moving one. I've seen what Chandler did called a foul on Joel Anthony in nearly every Heat game this year and on Kendrick Perkins in every game he plays. Sticking your...

    Heat-Mavs 2011 NBA Finals

    I've stayed out of the Cavs/LeBron/Heat threads all year because I disagree with this point immensely, but think you guys deserved some time to hate the guy due to The Decision (the tv show. Also, I don't post a lot and didn't want to side with the Wolverine). There are many reasons why, but...

    Heat-Mavs 2011 NBA Finals

    Also true. That is the danger of the zone, it is very vulnerable on the boards. Didn't see Chalmers hit him, and I tried a quick search but can't find the replay but since they didn't call that at all, the call made was garbage. The over the back was a little iffy but not complete bunk, I've...

    Heat-Mavs 2011 NBA Finals

    So from a game in which the Mavs shot 6 more FT's, LeBron and Wade took a combined 7 FT's (when both average over 8 a game in the playoffs), the Heat shot 3 less FT's than their playoff average and the foul total was nearly identical (22-21), all you can conclude is that the NBA wants to give...

    Yeah, just 3 straight final 4's from 06-08. What a loser.

    Boston Celtics (18x NBA champions)

    A lot of NBA experts think that it was a steal for the Thunder and a head scratcher for Boston. With the O'Neals in very questionable health, they may have completely given up their inside advantage. Are they suddenly going to switch to smaller ball and make Garnett or Big Baby play C in...

    tOSU +1.5 at Purdue (ov/un 135.5) Sun 1 ET, CBS

    it really cant be understated how horrific the officiating in the big 10 is. they always, and i mean always, completely give in to the home crowd. And if I were thad (and thankfully for buckeye nation I am not), I would already be gone from this one.

    i'm not one to take too much joy in other teams victories, but I fuckin loved this one

    Big Ten Basketball Thread

    I agree but I dont think the Minny game will be the loss. Without Nolen, they really have nobody that will be able to consistently even get them into their offense with Craft hounding them. Although it was interesting to see them start all 3 of their bigs and play a pretty nasty zone with...

    QB Kirk Herbstreit (Frosted Quips)

    Haha I'd love to send these quotes to Herbie, but then I would be one of those "irrational" fans that he isn't quite sure don't make up our entire fanbase. Really Herbie, lobbing insults at a fanbase that is peeved at you isn't a great way to get back in their good graces. Not that he cares...

    QB Kirk Herbstreit (Frosted Quips)

    Pretty much nailed it, and it really is terrible that Hooley offered no rebuttal and neglected to point out the conflicts within Herbie's own poll with the reasoning he said he used. On one hand he says how can you rank Wisky below tOSU since they one the head to head, and on his ballot his has...

    Purdue +7.5 at #1 tOSU (ov/un 134.5) Tue 9 ET, ESPN

    How could you forget the 06-07 teams 2nd leading scorer, Ron Lewis? IMO, the superior depth is on the 06-07 team, and I think I have to also say they take the head to head matchup. Not to take anything away from this team at all, but I think our fans are being prisoners of the moment at times...

    2010-2011 Men's Basketball Schedule

    I'm actually glad because we will finally play a in a tournament-like scenario (1 day between 2 quality opponents). Definitely can be a good experience for our younger players, even if it does result in a loss.

    2011 Mock Draft (planning)

    I'm in for the Patriots if their owner doesn't want to go again (since they have like 35 of the first 36 picks or something like that). If not then I'll take the Rams and draft Rolle and Homan to compliment their Lauranitis, Grant, Diggs LB Corp.

    College Playoff

    Part 2. Sorry about the length of the first post. Brevity sometimes eludes me. Here is my obligatory playoff proposal: -12 teams, NFL style. Top 4 seeds get a bye (see seeding procedure below). 1st two rounds played on the higher seeds home field. This keeps the regular season...

    College Playoff

    I've done research about this by comparing the deals that the BCS has with TV and an approximation of the deal that the NFL has for their playoffs (their $3 billion a year TV deal includes both regular and post-season) in relation to the ratings they bring in, and came up with a very (ie...

    2010 polls - Pre-season and regular

    Arkansas beat Georgia, albeit with a last minute drive. But I definitely agree that it would have been nice to see someone represent the other side of the debate. It always amazes me how few of the "experts" on e!spn will even offer a counter-argument to any hyperbole filled praise of the...

    DL Michael Bennett (National Champion)

    Like I said in Braxton's thread, I went to the game last night for my first glimpse of these young men in person. Bennett definitely passes the looks test. He moves extremely well for a man his size (when he ran Braxton out of bounds on a scramble he was nearly step for step with him). Didn't...
