I don't think Josh will get voted in, but I'm hoping the coaches will select him as a reserve. After Bosh, no other PF in the eastern conference comes close to Smith, not even KG.

I thought the same with Denver, when they lost to Miami in their back-to-back. But we thoroughly whupped their butts when they came to town, so I'm expecting a similar result with the Heat.

Good lord. I'm not sure what it is about this Portland team, but every game it's always close. Exciting! I was at the gym watching it, and I couldn't concentrate on my workout because I was so engrossed with the game :cheers:

You think KG is going to let his team coast through games? You think he's going to allow his team to "not take games seriously?" He made Big Baby cry like a baby(lol) because he thought Glen was playing like a timid, lazy fool. Where's your proof Boston is slacking, and not taking the early goings of this season seriously? You think Boston wanted to lose two games in a row? You think they wanted to lose to Indiana, or get thoroughly outworked on their own homecourt by us? Early in the season, late in the season, who cares, every game matters. You can't go around pretending the first ten games of the season doesn't matter. And of course I don't think their championship hopes are down the drain, or that they're depressed. But they're probably not happy losing to a team they should have beaten(Indiana) or to a team they felt they could beat(us).

I don't know, looks like KG took that loss to Atlanta pretty hard. Pretty good indicator he's taking things seriously. And yes, I do believe they're playing hard. At least in the Atlanta game it appeared that way. And how should I know if they're playing as hard as last year? I hardly saw any of their games, so I can't say. But from the Atlanta game, it looked like they were trying out there. That's because last year's team wasn't as good. Easier for Boston to come back and tie/take the lead. This year, we were able to hold off whatever comeback they attempted to mount, because we're that much better. Yeah, probably. But they won't walk all over us, like they did the last two years.

Tell that to Celtic fans. Most of them believe it's old age that's killing them. They just can't keep up. And :laughing5: at "slacking" and "not taking the season a bit too seriously." What does that even mean? That they don't care they lost two home games already? That they're going to shrug their shoulders after an Indiana loss? They want another championship, I doubt they're "slacking."

Wish I could make it. But I'm poor. And I smell. Not a good combination. :sobbing: But I'll be watching from the t.v.!

But on the other side, Denver losing means they'll look to bounce back tomorrow. They'll be looking for blood. :sad:

Good LORD, Elam is god awful. And Jenkins is garbage too. Cut both, I don't care. Jenkins was not worth the contract he got, and Elam should have been dismissed after last season. I really hope Mike Smith chewed this team a new arsehole at halftime, because they definitely deserve it.

No, he means that even a decidedly mediocre team like the Dolphins can give a "powerhouse" like the Saints some trouble. Anyways, while I'm not happy with the loss, I guess you can't win them all. Dallas was coming off a bye, so they had all the time in the world to prepare their gameplan against us. See us against the 49'ers. Teams rarely lose coming off a bye. We could be staring at 4-3 after next week, unfortunately. Even though the Dolphins should have won their game, the Saints showed some grit in their comeback, and they look locked in at this point. Can't see us waltzing into the Superdome and stealing the W right under their noses. But! Thank god we got Carolina and Washington after that.

Yankees V. Phils? Whoever wins, we lose. I'd hate to be a Mets fan in this situation.

Good Lord, tonight's game was such a Debbie Downer. I hate the Florida Marlins. :angry22:

2 GB. Insanity. We'll still need help though. We need Colorado to flop the rest of the way, and we have to pretty much win out if we want a shot. But this is very exciting.

Turner fumbling was backbreaking. Already has two this year, after getting only 3 all of last year. And our offense screeches to a whiplashing halt. Ugh, terrible.

Falcons playing with fire here. How many times are they going to allow this NE team to march into their redzone? We're lucky that we've "limited" the damage, but I'm getting a little annoyed with the Patriots marching downfield on almost every possession. Defense needs to man up.

Rondo and Iguodala are rated higher than Joe? Rondo higher than Billups? Smh.

I don't want to jinx anything by saying the Braves have a great chance, but it would be a shame if we don't see this pitching staff in the playoffs.

:thumbsupsmileyanim:

Cut Elam, dude is terrible. Squandered 7 potential points for us.

I laughed.

And the line becomes muddy. If you strip away all the "extraneous" features from a console, and just compare the bare bones aspect of playing games, than you're going to run into a ton of redundancy. Both game libraries are just too similar. So, that's where "extraneous" features come into play. I doubt someone is sitting down and thinking to themselves, "Well... if the PS3 didn't have this or the 360 didn't have that, than it loses value." No, they're going to compare and contrast everything the 360 and PS3 has to offer before they buy. And that comparison will go beyond just looking at gaming capability. Most people these days are looking for more than just "playing games" on their consoles. They want to know what else it does. As far as the online aspect, the PS3 does a decent job of it. In terms of strict online play, it performs well. It does lack the strong community aspect of Live, but hey its free, so I'm not complaining.

That's like someone saying, "If you take away Xbox Live away from the the 360, than its not near as attractive an option." You can't make that argument, because there is no point. When comparing the two, you have to include Blu-Ray and Live, because they're going to be permanent fixtures on both consoles. It is.

Chipper really needs to pull it together. We can't have our #3 hitter slumping like this, especially down the stretch. And why isn't Laroche hitting ahead of Garrett Anderson? But despite that, I think sweeping the Marlins is highly possible. Pitching matchups favor us, and their best hitter, Hanley Ramirez, is in a little slump.
