We got the double header on TNT tonight of Celtics/Cavs and LA/LA. Other two games are Wizards/Mavs, Rockets/Trailblazers. I'm happy to have the Rockets game down here on FSN. I think Cavs win at the Q tonight, and Lakers, Blazers, and Mavs should win fairly easily. Little less than 7 hours till tip off.

NBA IN HD!

I'll be checking out some TNT later on tonight to see what the
Cavs vs. Celts tilt looks like in HD. Been impressed with the
NFL thus far so I have high hopes for the NBA. Should be a
good game.

the NBA in Hi-Def is a revolution, T-Bone. In my opinion, basketball looks the best in HD, followed by golf and baseball, depending on the network. Quality does seem to vary.

You know NBA Commissioner David Stern will be on hand, as will Jack Nicholson, Dyan Cannon, and yes, Lamar Odom's new wife Khloe Kardashian among the many celebs in the house at STAPLES Center for Game 2 of the NBA/TNT twinbill for Clippers/Lakers.

Bagels, that dumbass post of mine turns out to be something synonymous with watching a Lakers' game. It's not just watching Kobe, Pau and Ron, Bagels. You watch the game to see the big stars, too. :wink: 8)

City SHARK handles himself well. He doesnt need your help.

Check the SHARKS greatest hits thread. He and Douchebag have a compelling and rich history.


With that said, Even as far as SHARK posts go it was bad. SHARK is still in a slump.

And he continues to make the Kardashians famous

I stand by my statement, which neither helped SHARK nor hurt him.

I also stand by my trusty moped.

Is NBA League Pass free for the first 10 days or so?

Yes, BD, it is free, but if you want to hear someone other than Neil Funk & Stacey King calling Bulls' basketball, it's blacked out. If you wanted to hear the Celtics' call of Friday's game vs. Chicago or the Heat's call of Sunday night's game vs. the Bulls...Forget it.

I usually buy League Pass, but I'm trying to talk myself out of purchasing it this year. I think it's going for $169 for the first couple of days, and then increases to $189, and while I do enjoy West Coast games during the mid-week in the middle of winter, there are so many college/NBA games already on TV that I'm not sure that I'll be getting it this year.

I loved the League Pass, but economics may keep me from it and my beloved late night Warriors/Clippers games...

cavs dont look good so far in a halfcourt offense. Look good in every other facet. Boston needs to rebound better. Perkins isn't doin it. They need quicker outlet passes to rondo for transition buckets. Boston also needs to get back quicker and get set in their halfcourt defense set faster.

Post subject:  Re: NBA Opening Night

marquis daniels is an overlooked addition to boston. Very good defender. He's been effective against lebron. Boston is moving the ball much better than the cavs. If that keeps up boston will win

doc must read the board. They made good he last two adjustments in the 2nd quarter and it led to some good stops and some big threes. Perkins has still been a ghost out there.

Not sure about having McHale there...

Interesting first half, was curious to see how they'd use Shaq. I'm glad like was mentioned they are going to make him score and not double team him. why at this point
