    can't keep up with all these cats recordings but have heard some on youtube in various formations and on internet radio, This particular clip I had not heard before it's probably the one that i enjoy him the most.

    Two more things to the season from me.

    I don't think that the San Antonio players should beat themselves over the head for giving away game 6. In a way I thought Miami gave away game 1. so the series was even on that account.

    I absolutely loved how the Miami players had a bit of fun on behalf of the press in their after game interviews.

  5. What live music are you going to see tonight?

    I was at constallations too and did not hear it like Larry. I quite enjoyed the show. Jordan Parker Drake sounded great, Sclavis was fine and did his best to keep up with them. Tusques did sit out a lot. He did sound a bit distant I thought part of it may be that he was not perfectly miked. I even asked my neighbour in the first couple of minutes if he heard him well as he sounded a bit muddied to me but he thought it was fine. That maybe on my ears.

    I would like to get what Larry gets in the dentist office.

    Nothing gets a sports discussion started like refereeing.

    For me flopping is worse than other "acting" because it looks so much more ridiculous.

    For instance, if you do a google search "LeBron flops" and look at the results you may get what I mean. I would not go as far as to say that LeBron is the King of flopping. There are many others who do it more often and some even do the "acting" better. All I can say is it looks ridiculous.

    For those of you who don't know me yet, I don't dislike LeBron. I wouldn't for example hold that "Not 1, not 2 not...."statement against him. For me that's just some silly stuff that athletes are allowed to say in a celebration.

    For thelil, I think there is a difference between not disliking somebody and unconditional love.

    Looking forward to game 7.

    It's now Miami's championship. Miami showed, after getting blown out in the third game, that they respond with a fierce competitiveness when they need to win. Unfortunately Parker can't play the minutes needed to keep SA competitive with Miami over the course of 3 more games, if needed. And we won't see the Spurs 3 point barrage again with Miami's more aggressive defense.

    imo it's far from over. Sure don't hope so. It's exciting. As thelil pointed out. neither team has won their 2 games the same way. As often in a playoff series, the next game is the most important.

    What I usually don't like about the Breen/vanGundy duo is that they usually talk about everything but the game they are supposed to comment. Last night they did a better than usual job, imho. Especially they did comment on Wade's fabulous performance. They did commend him for some extraordinay nice passes and for his overall MVP like performance that was much more than just creating opportunities for himself by driving to the basket. They also frequently referred to his stats which iirc ended up to be 32 points (with very effective shooting) 6 rebounds, 4 assists (same as LeBron) 5 or 6 steels and no turnovers.

    Didn't mean to suggest that all did was create opportunities for himself. I was just commending him for being the only guy who seemed to be able to easily work the ball to get a GOOD, mid-ranged open jumper for himself. But it was among the many good things he did.

    New point: In the first half Tony Parker made a bunch of impossible looking floaters,seemingly while diving for extra yardage at full speed.

    Yeah thelil, no I did not misunderstand you. I was more commenting on your comments on the commentators.

    You probably already know that in my opinion it's impossible to overrate a good scorer. With evenly matched good teams what's the first thing the defense is trying to take away from you? the easy basket. Which ever way you skin that cat your're better off with an exceptional scorer or two or three. Plus there is so much to scoring that it never it never gets boring. Not to sound like a cheap commercial There really is. I know that I don't have to tell you but, the moves, the speed, the shots, the floaters, the jumpers the the threes..... please don't get me started again , thelil.
