losing by 26 to the pacers, if they keep going like this, they will be out of the playoffs, wow from the 4th seed to possibly out of playoffs
Either way, TMac is vindicatedSir Patchwork said:Where was that thread about Kobe laughing after a loss? LeBron doing the same thing with the team struggling and them getting blown out.
Headlines tomorrow read LeBron laughs during game, gives up on season.Sir Patchwork said:Where was that thread about Kobe laughing after a loss? LeBron doing the same thing with the team struggling and them getting blown out.
Yup, that's exactly why Patchwork poked fun at duncan2k5's awful Kobe thread. Laughing does not = giving up, despite what the TNT crew of Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith will tell you.SamTheMan67 said:and of course you cant laugh at a game... I dont know about kobe but making a thread about him was really stupid.
I play sports and when we are losing bad sometimes we crack jokes quietly to lighten the mood...
Ummmm OK. You stick any player not named Shaq or Duncan with Ira Newble, Eric Snow, Jeff McInnis, and Tractor Traylor and try to win games. These guys brick layups so don't even bother about ask about outside shooting. Let me guess, you think playing with Wade and suddenly these guys will make open jumpers?sloth said:The problem is Lebron. He is worse then Kobe with Kobe's supposive ego. Kobe is said to have the I am better then the team ego because all his post Jackson coaches are just give the ball to Kobe and watch offenses. While Lebron doesn't trust his teammates, and thinks he is the only one trying, and the only one that can get it done. Wade>TMac>Kobe>AI>Lebron.
I don't think you can really put Tracy in this group. I don't hear much bad about him.MemphisX said:...and so it begins LeBron.
Welcome to the wonderful world inhabited by Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady and Kobe.

SPMJ said:I've seen LeBron laughing on the bench in 4th qtrs of a blowout loss a bunch of times this season.
Exactly, I have a lot of respect for the Pacers playing without so many key players. They are playing with so much heart and passion that they have made me a fan of this Pacers team. Reggie Miller is still leading the as a 40 year old skinny shooting guard and they just won't let themselves lose. It will be sad for me to see Reggie Miller retire at season's end, I've always rooted for him.StephenJackson said:I don't think any team can whine about playing without an injured player when they are playing the Pacers who are without Tinsley, Artest, and JO.
They also had good coaching, and players who can step up.sloth said:Bulls missing Deng, Kirk, Curry, Othella for periods of times, 5 game chunks at least recently, and 2 for othella, and the Bulls still fought through it.
Indiana, no Artest, SJax, JO, Tinsley for large periods of times, but they fought through it.
