Just because you throw someone a pass, and they score, it doesn't mean you made them a better player.

Wow...

Tens of thousands of daily visitors, meanwhile only 134 facebook fans. We fail with social media.

Reading this article made me even more aware of how complicated this game is.

I guess having a good memory is just as important as being athletic.

I couldn’t think a of another PF that would fit in with this Offense better. Mitch saw something we didnt, glad he did though.
3 Years, 3 Finals, 2 Championships, 2 All-Star Game’s. Those numbers dont lie.

Thanks Dex for sharing this.

Don’t you love the chase? Sometimes it doesn’t work out; those are the stakes. But when it does work out, it’s like having that first cigarette: your head gets all dizzy, your heart pounds, your knees go weak. Remember that?

great stuff.

Adam Morrison has more rings than Lebron, Bosh, and Wade combined?

by shaqfor3 on Aug 23, 2010 8:18 AM PDT reply actions

Good stuff

Especially like the sets in which Kobe and Gasol are essentially interchangeable pieces from the top of the key and the high post, as both are so skilled as to have effective scoring or passing plays run for them in either position.

To secure ourselves against defeat lies in our own hands, but the opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself.
