A lot of things tonight

Stars and Rangers both go at 7 p.m., along with the Spurs/Hornets...

I'm going to have a hard time keeping up with it all...

And you know, one of the things I liked about the old version of LSB was that the mods didn't have a 75 word limit.  I could make my diary as short as I wanted, and it didn't matter...it would let me run it anyway...

The way I see it, STARS = FAR MORE IMPORTANT

I’ll take a playoff game for a Dallas team over a regular season game or a NBA playoff game not involving any of our teams.

Meh...

Hockey isn’t important at all. Even playoff Hockey.

Stars....

in DEEP trouble. They just look like they aren’t in this one tonight.

We had gameday threads for the first three games

Then no gameday threads for games 4 and 5.

The 40 trumps all!!!

This loss is blamed on Adam...

plus for Ben since he attended both games 3 and 6, both home losses.

Watching Tim Duncan...

shoot free throws is like watching Padzilla pitch with runners on.

stars

glad they are getting blown out. now all my bandwagon hockey fan friends will STFU.

I'm fine with bandwagon hockey fans

It’s more fun than when I want to talk hockey and get crickets from all of my friends and family.

Stars...

Game…set…match. See ya next year. When DET scores on a Dallas power play adv. to make it 4-0 early in the 2nd. You’ve got SERIOUS issues.

at least we can say this much

With the young core od defensemen and forwards to go along with Marty finally getting over the hump, we can say for the first time in a while that the Stars have a bright future and O wpuldn’t be surprised if we do win the Stanley Cup next year….

Was at the Stars game....

Had a blast, even though they lost. After the second goal a bunch of assholes behind me started yelling “We want Holmquist” Which was disappointing, I feared that the crowd would turn on the Stars, which didn’t happen. Obviously the goal that took the life out of the crowd was the shorty. The crowd emptied after the 2nd but I was really proud to cheer them on as the period was winding down, knowing it was over. They gave us a helluva ride, and should have no shame in losing to the Wings. That’s a damn good hockey team.

Now, AJM you’re the scapegoat. It’s been proven that Stars gameday thread = loss. Bad decision to start this thread.

Not the only black poster on LSB.

Mavs

couldn’t keep up with the Hornets..

The Mavs match up with the Spurs 10x better.

Agree?

They may match up better...

but the Spurs would still beat them. It’s pretty hard to say “Mavs > Spurs” considering the Mavs are out of the playoffs again and have no NBA Championships, while the Spurs are at it again with how many NBA Championships here recently.

With Devin Harris, maybe

With the old, worn out, past his prime Jason Kidd? No.

Tony Parker

can’t hit a jump shot to save his life.

He doesn’t scare me.

Too bad

that what does or doesn’t scare Miles has no bearing on what happens on the court. And Parker is a good jump shooter, including a very clutch shot last night to put the Spurs up by 5 with just over a minute to go and essentially put the game away.

by Melmart1 on May 20, 2008 11:19 AM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Parker
can’t hit a jump shot to save his life.

82 games says otherwise…Parker is in the upper 20% or so in the league in 2 point jump shot percentage…

Your boy Jason Kidd, meanwhile, is near the bottom…

by Adam J. Morris on May 20, 2008 12:15 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

That

26% 3 point shooting looks great as well.

Stars Game...

I was glad I was there, but it was a definite beatdown to see them down by so much early. Glad the crowd cheered them out.

BAD Radio

seem quite pleased with the crowd reaction…they sounded better than the typical BS Dallas fan.

...it's the weekend, so why the hell not?
