Well, last night I drowned my sorrows in peanut butter and honey...and let me tell you-2 bowls of peanut butter DOES NOT make the pain go away...you just get full.
The Dallas Mavericks fought hard last night...although some of them (Dirk and Finley) did not necessarily fight well, just hard - regardless, the outcome: it is now time to retire my Mavs jersey for the off-season. Game 6 can definintley be described as "entertaining". I may have actually stopped breathing for a few minutes of the overtime (I still feel a little dizzy). This was of course, great first-time playoff experience for Terry and more experince for Howard (who has a great career ahead of him). Maybe if (this hurts me to so it), maybe if we find a new solution for Finley and maybe if Dirk can grow his mojo (his hair) back- we will be a better team next year. But for a team that went through injuries, new poin, new center, and a mid-season coaching change--not too bad. Avery said last night, that if the Mavs didn't take a title in the next couple of years that the Mavs should find a coach who will win them a title--he is preety determined that Dallas goes all the way...and personally, I think he could be the guy to @ least get us there.
And, now...I pick the Suns over the Spurs...and then on to the obvious Miami Heat in the Finals. I will pull out my old Dan Marjle jersey and my Steve Nash gear and watch them take the title.
Don't forget to look @ my last post...and shout out your comment on the trade options listed! Oh, and what do you propose we do with Finley?

How dare you throw it out that the Suns take the Spurs! Did you see the game yesterday??? That's a picture of what is to come. No great offensive team can stop great defense. And I'm leaning toward a Pistons pick in the East Finals--it all depends on the Big Daddy's health.
As for Finley, my heart says you keep him because Dallas is where he became a star, he's been loyal to them, etc. But they may not be able to get much out of him because this season was not impressive, he's been injured (in the past Finley was an ironman), and he's got a fat contract. So they probably can't move him or get much value in return. Cuban should have him restructure his contract so they could sign a bruiser down in the post.
You're such a tool for picking the Suns.
Whoa-I never called you a tool for being a spurs fan! There is no need for hatin'
The Suns are a much more exciting team to watch - I'd like to keep watching them play - So, I pick the Suns. Besides, an offense can beat a defense when their energy just doesn't quit.
I'm don't dislike Finley; actually, I've always liked him...I just think he's is past his prime and not doing a lot with his leadership, so to win...we must move on. I would love to see him step it back up and have a great next season...but I'm not going to risk my money on those chances. (Finley-prove me wrong).
The way I see it-the Heat belongs to Dwane Wade. Shaq is very important-but you build your team around Wade. The Pistons are good primarily b/c of good coaching. Yes, there are decent players, but when you look back into this season-when Brown was out, the Pistons lost, when he came back-they won.
We'll see.
You wanna wager on the games???
considering that we know each other's salaries, I would advise against any wagers on my own, and your part.
fool.
Wow, Shawn is sensitive about your picks there, Kevin. I want the Suns to win, too, but I wouldn't put money on them, regardless of my salary (which is non-existent).
Shawn, Kevin just needs something useless to cheer for so that is why he is going for the suns. I mean, look at who he cheered for all year. All my love kev, but brother, the suns?
