Hope Odom can bring it like that more often, at least the effort and energy!

Anybody know anything about Shannon Brown, strengths, weaknesses? Can he contribute or was he just a toss in to make the trade work?

mont13
he's a toss in. he won't see the court on that team. he played at mich st. In fact morrison might as well be a toss in as well cause he hasn't done a thing since entering the league. I'm not sure what the lakers were doing with that move unless there was some kind of salary cap issue w/ rodmanovich. Unless they see something in those 2 players that the rest of the league hasn't seen in the past 2 seasons, i see no way they can contribute, but who knows

How can you say that the first 3-peat squad couldn't hang with the 2nd 3-Peat squad? Do you realize that the 90-91 Bulls won 61 games and the 91-92 Bulls won 67 games? Don't sleep on that '92 squad. They beat a tough Portland team in the finals.DJ_Magneto
I never said they weren't great but if you line up the rosters of those 2 teams, and erase pippen and jordan since they were on both 3 peats, man for man the second 3 peat has better talent. Harper>armstrong or paxon, Rodman>Grant, Cartwright, Longley and Wettington cancel each other out, Kukoc>any bench players from first 3 peat, etc. Like i said, i never said they weren't great, but STACKED, i don't think so. The second 3 peat was stacked

[QUOTE="sixringz1"] well based on that theory the mavericks are stacked because jason kidd is a lock hall of famer, and nowitzki has already won an mvp and multiple all star appearances so he's well on the way. andyboiii
except for the fact that Jordan and Pippen were in their prime while Kidd was past his prime when he came to the Mavericks when he joined Nowitzki. also Jordan and Pippen have a much bigger impact because of their lock down defense

pippen was in his 4th year and had yet to make an all star team when they won their first title. And as time would show, that was far from pippen's prime.

[QUOTE="sixringz1"][QUOTE="-Halftime-"]Fun fact: Jordan's Bulls didn't even win the division until Pippen came to town. I love how people always talk as if MJ did it completely all by himself. Those 90's Bulls teams were stacked. Jordan was the best player, but there were plenty of ballers on those squads.fat_rob
the second 3 peat were a stacked squad, that first 3 peat was not. Other than pippen and jordan, nobody on those teams could start in place of any of the lakers current players. That roster consisted of horace grant, john paxon, bj armstrong, scott livingston, stacey king, craig hanson, craig hodges, etc. There's no gasol, odom or bynum in those players. and i think a lot of the people on these boards are too young to remember the first 3 peat, and they think that it was the same roster for all 6 titles. That first 3 peat couldn't even stay on the same floor with the second 3 peat

Pippen and Jordan is having two certified HOF on the same squad...that's stacked imo.

nO[QUOTE="X360PS3AMD05"]Meaningless game, but hopefully an 0-2 to 2-0 Season series swing were just what the Lakers needed to get some confidence should they play the Celtics in the Finals again. mont13

Not totally meaningless, the Lakers get an advantage if the finals come down to L.A. and Boston.

I am the first to say that reg season games mean nothing come playoff time, but i would have to think that for the younger players on the team (not kobe, fisher or even phil jackson), that beating boston twice including one in boston, could not hurt them in anyway. They now can at least believe they can win cause they did it before, now whether it translates to the finals where it's a completely different game, only time will tell.

He's got 28-5-5 at halftime and the cavs are only up 5 so unless the cavs blow it open in the 3rd i would expect he'd play in the 4th. I'm not sure if he'll out score kobe but if he puts up a triple double with 50 points that would be crazy. I feel bad for the Knicks, you got the two best individual players in back to back games, then you have to deal w/ the Celtics in the next game.

meh i'll take Kobe dropping 62 points against the Mavs in 3 quarters which he sat out the 4th quarter and none of his points came from OTandyboiii
meh i'll take jordan's 6 rings as "the man", 6 finals mvp's, and 5 regular seson mvp's. I can play this game too. lol i love going at it with the kobe fans.

On a side note, it looks like lebron is trying to match kobe. He just dropped 20 in the first quarter. The problem is the cavs are already winning by 12 so this might be a blowout and he won't play in the 4th

[QUOTE="sixringz1"][QUOTE="NetYankEagle"]Oden is a Bust,didnt bynum get owned by his own teammate?NetYankEagle
wow you must have a crystal ball or something cause i don't know how you can call anyone a bust after about 25 games played

40 games actually and iv already seen enough to judge him, dude fouls out before the game even starts.

oden- 9pts, 7rbs, in 23 min a game halfway through his first year. He won't continue to get in foul trouble for the rest of his career cause NO player does. They adjust to the style. Even on a bad day the guy is a walking double-double when he gets 35 min. I'm not saying he'll be great, but half a season is definitely not enough time to judge someone

When the guy gets 35 minutes or more a game he averages 16 and 12, not to mention his ability to block shots. He'll adjust to the game and cut down on the fouls. He definitely won't be a bust. He'll be a double double guy his whole career
