[QUOTE=Younggrease]Yeah we all know the Spurs take the regular season seriously:rolleyes: I mean Lebron dominated them last regular season..by your logic Lebron and the [B]Cavs would kill them in the playoffs..:rolleyes:[/B][/QUOTE]
Cavs would kill the spurs in the playoffs, its the finals that the spurs would beat them in.

[QUOTE=GOBB]They dont, they just so happen to win 53+ wins 10 out of the last 11yrs (would have won 50+ if not for the strike year).[/QUOTE]
I'm sorry but that's bull****, they take it just as serious as any other team, you can say they prepare themselves for the playoffs better, but to say they don't take it seriously, insane.
Re: C. Paul: "He can't guard me!"
So it's like that is it? Typical ISH. Chris Paul is dominating and Greasy and the haters come out to bash him for "losing his cool."
The facts are that it was CP3's first playoff game, he dominated and his team outscored the Mavs by like 26 in a 24 minut span. Jason Kidd couldn't stop him, he was straight on fire and his team was playing at an amazing level. Who wouldn't be pumping their chest? Kobe does it and it's all good.
Oh wait, Kobe gets hate when he does this? WRONG. I've seen some Laker fans try to act like it's some double standard, but show me a thread bashing Kobe for playing out of his mind offensively/defensively, racking up assists and winning a playoff game. You won't find it. People bashed Kobe during the Nuggets game because he was shaking his finger and talking smack when he was 5-17 from the field.
Another thing that should be pointed out is how mentally weak the Mavericks are. If I was the coach of a team playing the Mavericks, I'd tell my players to get in their face and psych them out. Once Dirk, Terry or Howard gets rattled they start chucking, even if it means fading away from 20 feet.
Chris Paul's fire is one of the things that make him a special player and what will solidify him as a legend one day.

Didn't mean to quote GOBB and say that, apology.

What no...thats just gross. The Cavs are seriously terrible.
Re: C. Paul: "He can't guard me!"
Who cares? Lots of players say lots of things on the court...isn't that what being competitive is? If one of you clowns played as well as Paul did in his playoff debut, I bet you'd be talking trash too.

Yeah but pretty much everyone makes Kidd look silly it just makes Paul seem like less of a player to actually brag about such an easy task.

[QUOTE=KenneBell]If Kobe did it, therre would be a 5 page thread on how cocky and disrespectful it was. :lol [/quote]
Difference is, Paul actually had a superb game, and "he can't guard me" is an apt description of what actually transpired. In Kobe's case, he's mugging for the crowd, shaking his head and making comments when he's 5-19 from the field, as if he just had a monster game or had hit huge shots in a close game.

This isn`t the passing over of any torch. CP3 is better than Kidd ever was period.

Anyway, I thought it was pretty cool. I like to see intensity and swagger on the court. I'd probably do the same if I was burning a top 5-10 PG of all-time in my first playoff game.[/QUOTE]
What are you talking about. Kobe does it EVERY GAME. Do you not see him talking after each made basket? He does it so often that it's not news.

Maybe he isn`t, but CP3 is still a hell of alot better than Kidd.

Then who is? And don't say Nash. The stats speak for themselves, CP3 is streets ahead of any PG in the NBA right now. And much better than Kidd too.
