warriors were drafting the same type of player for the longest time long athletic 3's. kinda messed them up for a while there. at least there are no warriors flags on peoples cars in the bay area.

[modaxxa]

suns fans were crazy today in AZ. but Lakers have shown them who's the shit!!

[HOYNGE]

the dunk that shannon brown did over jrich was nuts, only if he made it.

I hear you brother. Shit would've gone to SportsCenter easy as well as a poster featuring Shannon and Jrich.

[domdomdomdom]

[domdomdomdom]

trying to be

[wtap dat ass]

[chantheman]

come on kings lets win the lottery...sadly i think the russian bought the #1 pick from david stern, but i hope im wrong

[chantheman]

and now im super sad...5th? shit could be worse could have got 6th in a 5 player draft like the warriors...

[Androo630]

shit like this always happens to the warriors. we'll be lucky if we even end up with munroe.

[selaviso]

[wtap dat ass]

Damn what happened to the magic???

[pennyoka]

^^^Boston's defense

[amardeep]

J Redick happened.

But really who do the announcers praise this du so much? If you watch him throughout the game, he makes a ton of terrible decisions. Shouldn't be in at crunch time, but I guess they don't have another option at his position

Classic Vince Carter. Chokes at the end of a game, then walks away from a huddle while his coach is still drawing up a play.

[Christmas In A Submarine.]

New owner Mikhail Prokhorov represented the Nets at the draft lottery and showed little emotion after the Nets selection was revealed. New Jersey had a 25 percent chance of landing the top pick, which was expected to be Kentucky guard John Wall.

Washington, which only had a roughly 10 percent chance of winning the lottery, got the No. 1 overall pick in the draft on June 24. The Philadelphia 76ers got the second pick.

"Sometimes luck makes all the difference, but it never comes down to one player," Prokhorov said. "I'm sure we're going to get a great player. For our team, the only way is up."

Prokhorov doesn't think it will take the Nets long to turn things around -- even without the No. 1 pick.

"If everything goes as planned, I predict that next season we'll be in the playoffs and as championship minimum one year and maximum five (years)," he said.

lawl @ that dry russian wit.

I keep watching the suns in vain, hoping for the second episode of the Goran Dragic show. I don't think it's happening

[chantheman]

in bill simmons article about the nets owner. denimz started the empire

Q: How did he initially become wealthy?

A: When the Soviet Union was collapsing in the late-'80s, Prokhorov was attending the Moscow Finance Institute. He made his first wave of money producing ... (wait for it ...) stonewashed jeans, buying a ton of denim (shades of "How to Make It In America"), renting a corner of a laundromat in Moscow, processing the denim there and making incredible profits (14 rubles for every one he spent). After graduating from MFI, he launched a financial conglomerate with Vladimir Potanin in 1992, starting with $10 million in capital (10 percent from them) and succeeding immediately. Once Russia's political/economic infrastructure started to collapse, Potanin/Prokhorov were sitting in the catbird's seat when Boris Yeltsin's government decided to take "loans" from Russian banks in exchange for allowing those banks to "manage" shares in state-run companies.

Now that Chris Bosh "unofficially" added the Lakers to his desired destinations, I expect Bynum to completely rid himself of his cast and play 110%, nothing less.

But damn has Kobe been good lately, honestly better than he's played all season.

[chantheman]

[suremanok]

boston is definitely a better playoff team this year than '08 cause of rondo.
