WHO'S YOUR DADDY TREVOR & TODD?


Posted by James Willis at 3:42 PM 0 Comments


..............................................................





Dong, Dong, Dong....I am not going to make any excuses for my team, they got their asses handed to them....by a better team. Miami was slow, Miami was off from every possible shot you can take...they were out hustled, out played...by a better team that is hungry. Now, I can take this sweep because we deserve it, now you on the other hand, what is your team excuse for possibly being down 3-1? In your post you seem content to possibly only get one win, wtf? Your team had the best record in the NBA, and they are being pushed around and ran by the 8th seed (that's like Steve pushing UW around)....you should be mad that they are not sweeping them....Give an excuse Dong....I am waiting......the Heat deserved to be out and I am not complaining. I am more than happy, that our season is over, Chicago put us out of our misery...Our team was not made for a championship run this year, and that was evident from the first game of the season (plus injuries) but not an excuse, we got beat by a younger and better team....now give me your explanation for the Mav's sorry start and failures against the 8th seed.....


Dong's response: Oh Tinez, your team was the defending NBA Champions and they looked anything but through this whole series and this response is the best that you can come up with to defend your team, WTF?. No excuses here because unlike your team, my team is still playing this year. Now maybe we won't make it to the NBA Finals, hell we might not even make it out of the first round but we will put up a much better fight than that sorry ass team that I just saw for these past four games. The Heat didn't deserve to be in the playoffs but since they play in such a weak ass conference, they made it by default. So you can post all the pictures you want from LAST YEAR but the lasting memory that will remain is the day your squad was the first team ever to get swept in the first round after winning the title a year before.. HAVE A GOOD SUMMER!!! Look on the bright side, you can start cutting grass a whole lot earlier :)


Tinez's response: What reponse man? Read my comment, I give all the credit to Bulls, and said basically that my team sucked no excuses playa....reading is fundamental try it........So all the junk you have been talking through out the season, and now that your team who went 67-15, is looking like an 8th seed, you want to go back on your words....you said and I quote " Dong: I make sure I take a whole lot of pictures from the championship parade in Dallas" you also said, "Dong: I'm not concerned about Regualr Season games, the playoffs are a different story. The Mavs have playoff experience. Also, it is proven that a run and gun offense doesn't get you far in the playoffs"....and now you say this "Now maybe we won't make it to the NBA Finals, hell we might not even make it out of the first round"....dude, make up your mind......and since you have made plans not to be in the finals, yo...I like my fish fried with hot sauce, hook yo boy up...you going fishing right?

..............................................................

Defending Champs no more


Tinez, what is this? Shaq and Wade can't believe that their team....The defending NBA Champions Miami Heat just got SWEPT in the first round of the playoffs on their own home court. I know that Dallas is in a dogfight themselves with Golden State but at least they won a game against them in the playoffs. Well at least we don't have to worry about the refs giving Wade 67 combined free throw attempts in two games of a series. How does it feel to CHOKE? How does it feel to lose four straight games to be eliminated? No defending NBA champion have been swept out of the first round of a seven game series of the playoffs...Well, I guess we can now add the Miami Heat to this list after today. You're right the Heat are the champs until someone else raises the trophy which it appears that's going to happen this year.


Don't worry Tinez, I got a broom to wipe your tears away!!!!
