And it looks like that great trade for billups paid off with chauncey billups scoring 3 points in 34 minutes. AI can score 10 points in 3 minutes without even breaking a sweat. Great job chauncey. Great job coach karl. 
I'm rooting for Melo though. It's time for him to step up and carry the nuggets. They are gonna go as far as he take them particularly if he wants to be considered an elite player like Lebron and Kobe. [Edited 2/24/09 9:08am] I take it that u are an AI fan? Yeah i like him especially when he was in philly with me being a sixers fan. Dude can still play but his window is closing. The conventional wisdom is to turn this guy into the consummate point guard but his game is shooting the basketball. It's like trying to convert kordell stewart into a pocket passer. Just ain't gon'happen.
And no namepeace i'm not judging the trade on one game. The postseason will ultimately determine that. Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint | |

He is already in talks with the Celtics. Great. As a Celtic hater, this is wonderful news. He'll wreck their chemistry like he's done every place he's been. |

Well, in the race for homecourt, they fell behind a step, losing to the Clippers. But they signed Mikki Moore, who's at least as good as their healthy frontline players now, and will likely sign Starbury. If this doesn't work, it will be disastrous. If it does work, look out.

In the 1977 playoffs, the Bulls(with Gilmore at center), played Portland in the opening round and nearly beat them in a tough, physical series. Blazers squeaked by, and would go on to win the title. |

I think Starbury will fit in nicely with the Celtics. | |

WRONG he is playing with kg Pierce and Ray not Eddy Curry and Q Rich! Low risk high reward! if it doesnt work they'll cut him! but it's gonna work.They still won't get past Cleveland without home court. As for the self-proclaimed, 'best PG in the NBA', I'll believe it when I see it. Sure he can get you 20 and 8, but there's a reason teams tire of his ass. |

The sixers had all the talent in the world on that team. It was a modern day dallas cowboy blowup. Don't laugh at my funk

It was a modern day dallas cowboy blowup. Yep...Dr.J, George McGinnis, Doug Collins, Steve Mix, World B. Free, Henry Bibby and a young Chocolate Thunder. Great individual talent, but Portland had the better 'team', led by Big Red, Mo Lucas, Bob Gross & Lionel Hollins. Funny thing is, Portland was stronger the following season, but injuries devastated them and they lost to Seattle in the playoffs. Philly had a few more years of playoff heartbreak(courtesy of Larry Bird & Magic Johnson) until Moses laid down his law in 82-83 - "Fo', fo', fo'!" |

Once that ball wne into the hole 2 him, the offense came 2 a halt. What a waste of some very talented teams. Moses was one of the hardest workers I've ever seen in the NBA. | |
