yea foyle had a monster game and shut down amare in the 4th when it mattered most because no one else on phoenix could pick up the slack. Donīt think the suns donīt have anything to play for, look at the standings between them and san antonio. Homecourt means a lot come playoffs espcially if you have to face a team like SA. I love the way the warriors are playing, though baron is shooting awfully for the most part and commiting a lot of turnovers, the warriors finally have a swagger and a winning mentality about them, plus two guards dangerous enough to drive and kick out or take the perimeter shot themselves. Now if Murphy can get a mean streak and put on some muscle and start demanding the ball in the post and finishing, the warriors can be in very good shape with a post threat to keep defenses honest, another high pick in the fold, a more experienced bierdrins and a season under montgomeryīs system. Maybe playoffs next year....... donīt hate me for jinxing it.

the only problem with Murphy is that he'd rather shoot jump shots from the perimeter than go in and post up. Then there's the problem with his hot and cold shooting day in and day out.

I also like to add that the warriors will be very formidable if they kept driving to the basket instead of shooting 3's and long 2's. If anybody remembers the 2nd Quarter of the warriors/suns game, they settled for nothing but jump shots, missed a lot, and got owned in that quarter from the phoenix fast breaks after the rebounds.

I think m urphy canuse that jump shot to his advantage to take larger 4īs out on the perimeter. I predict murphy puts on 20 lbsof muscle give or take this offseason.

I'm a big Amare fan, but as a Warriors fan, I loved seeing Amare staying outta Foyle's kitchen during the final 5 minutes.

They new they would get blown out in the playoffs..IF they managed to scrape in as an 8 seed. They have a coach that can be the scapegoat and a few other "excuses" like kobe is pretty much playing alone. So why the hell not loose 12 of 13 and a few more after and try to get lucky and get a top pick and pick up a big man. There's gonna be a couple decent guys at the top of the draft this year.
I buy that, the only problem is, Kobe is an egomaniac and won't let anyone else shoot the ball.

Times sure have changed when watching golf is more exciting than a Lakers game!

But today's Masters had one of the most exciting finishes in sports I've ever watched!! Much props to DiMarco for his very good play and giving Tiger a real scare. You could tell Tiger was on edge and very relieved when he made that putt to win on the second playoff hole.

Btw, Nike couldn't have asked for a better day either. Nailbiting suspense with Tiger winning AND that amazing shot on the 16th hole.......the Nike SWOOSH was the last thing viewers saw before the ball dropped in the hole too! No doubt we'll be seeing that sequence and close-up in one of their ads soon!

Oh well, summer's almost here. The "Kings" are just delaying the inevitable/USUAL and will be going fishing too, soon!

word, I hate golf, but found myself watching holes 14+ today.

I don't like that DiMarco guy, and I'm glad he got his *** beat on the final putt by Tiger.

No team will be able to stay on top every year. LA sucked this year but it doesn't bother me at all. They'll need some experienced stars besides Kobe and a good coach to get the team rolling again.

As for the Warriors, improved but still weak, show me some playoff wins before you Warriors fans get too excited.

GO LAKERS!

You still win nothing. What sport are you following?

Win a championship **** be competitive for a few consecutive years then you can say something.
