Western Conference Finals Game 4: Open Thread

by Turkmenbashi on May 25, 2009 7:25 PM CDT in 2009 NBA Playoffs Comment 71 comments

The Beef looks to lead his team up 3-1 over the Pastel Playas in Denver.

Tonight's game has the potential to answer the eternal question: what's more atrocious, Denver's inbound passing or Domino's new pasta in bread bowls?

Discuss. And don't feed the trolls.

Ugh, how are people not sick of this Kobe vs. LeBron debate?

Something to talk about, and when you have an hour pregame show you need to find stuff to talk about. Of course, all the Nike ads don’t help.

I know Howard and Melo are probably sick of it....lol

Well, let me know when either of those two deserve to be in the debate and then they can complain :-)

Yeah, Wade deserves to be mentioned above either of those two guys. And they’re all on a level below LeBron and Kobe.

by Buckeye Brad on May 26, 2009 9:22 AM CDT up reply actions

Which is, of course, not to take anything away from Howard or Melo. Howard is just young, and he’s already forcing his way into the “elite” conversation. He’ll get there. Melo is stellar, as is Wade, but neither is transcendent like LBJ or Beef.

Uh oh, Kobe missed an FT. Does that mean he’s not as good as LeBron?! These kinds of questions keep me up at night.

Got to ask be honest what do you all think about the officials..

by Kasam on May 25, 2009 9:20 PM CDT reply actions

I think the officials have been awful in the East, very good in the West. Way too many whistles in the Cavs/Magic series.

Any team that beats another 4 out of 7 games is far from lucky. Whichever team wins the Title will have earned it to be sure.

Force of habit we picked up over at the Cleveland Indians SBN site. Most of us there just find the subject line to be distracting and redundant, but to each his own.

i thought you were messing around, but yes, i’ve had that same issue with firefox before at work. hasn’t happened in a long while, but it was annoying as hell.

basically, E5 will be typing, and at random moments, sometimes frequently, the cursor will jump back a space or two, completely messing up your work.

it was after a few restarts of firefox due to closing on a uploading error. Was yours the same? Do you remember?
