you have clearly missed the repeated "i dont believe the conspiracies" comments made. but i will say maybe you should rethink the last post you made. you can point out numbers and stats all you like they will never disprove any truth that MAY (but more likely doesnt) exist in the argument that the league is bias toward teams like the most valuable in the league the lakers.

all that said, talking down to people like they are your 13 year old kid, isnt winning any points in my book. ONLY I CAN TALK DOWN TO PEOPLE THAT WAY DAMN IT!

How about "Get well Rose" for a subject line.
A deal is a deal. I can admit when I'm wrong. I really like Derrick Rose so I have no issue with saying that and I am actually upset at the level of criticism he is receiving. Returning from an injury like that isn't just physical. It's a mental thing too.

As for the Bulls, they have played very well. Tom T is a good coach and he good considering the lost of players you all have had. With that said, I think you all should revamp the roster and build around Noah, Rose and Deng with some better talent and then I think you all can honestly beat the Heat.

Sorry, just frustrated with all the garbage out there and my comments were not narrowly directed at you.

Statistically, you probably could show a refereeing bias over the years.

I know a whole bunch of CEO's got canned a number of years back because some college students analyzing stock option grants spotted some wierd stats....broke open a big backdating of options scandal.

Yeah, Rose is a class act. No rush for him to come back as that team needs to be looking to the future and not the immediate.

I mean even if Miami starts to age and falls off....OKC is going to be a beast for a looooong time once (as scary as this sounds) Durant and Westbrook reach their full potential in a couple more years.

If the Spurs don't reach the NBA Finals after this season then all the things below should happen since they are older and missed two opportunities to get a ring the past 2 years

1;. Pop resign as coach.................he had a great career with 4 rings and no need to taint his legacy

2. Tim Duncan............................He will be 37 and already with 4 rings so no need to return

3. Ginobli.................................he will be 36 and it's obvious his body is breaking down so retiring would a good move since he has 3 rings

4. Tony Parker................since he still has some good years at 31 the spurs should just trade him and start looking toward the future.


There is nothing else for the Spurs to accomplish at this point and can't see Duncan and Ginobli coming back to play another full NBA season at the age of 36 and 37. I think this season is their last shot to reach the NBA Finals and get another ring.

No way, it was very funny...I laughed the other night, still funny after all these years..I dont know if you ever watched that movie the "the warriors", about NYC gangs, thats what I think of when Shaq is before a big crowd and just won a title.
