^^^ Porsches are now getting back at the Audi's dominance.

@A40
i dont think Ferrari could have financially handled Alonso AND Vettel....so he had to make a choice, and there wasnt a lot of teams willing and/or rich enough to have Alonso under their wings.

on paper, Mc Laren is suppose to shine, that must be why he decided to head there. no worries, he can always move next year to a better team.

Ferrari is great this year, but i havent seen William shine that much so far this year. yes, Vettel is the better driver at Ferrari this year.

well, as much as they aint getting that close yet, the mercs cant let go for one sec because the ferraris are right at the back.
Naah Alonso and Vettel would have had lots of personality clashes. It would be pointless trying to keep both not necessarily because of money

I also doubt that Alonso would get a better team unless he is willing to take a massive paycut. He will be 35 years next year with his best years most likely well behind him

Williams and Ferrari are at par IMO. They have been able to beat Raikkonen with relative ease and challenge Vettel as well. If you put Alonso in a Williams odds are he would compete and do better than Bottas and Massa have been doing

If you give Vettel that Merc there will be no title race by now

the warriors are about to win the 'ship and they deserve it, having played in the much tougher west. But my hats off to the cavs. In a game the warriors played like their old selves, it was still close till the last minutes. Out of respect for these strapping cav's I will play the cav's advocate for a sec tongue
What would it take to steal game 6 from the warriors? The mind games wont work. Curry knows he can make those 3s in spite of dellas harassment. Thomas can get all the offensive rebounds but he cant create his own shot, and James can score 50 if he wants, but as long as he is not sharing the ball, the cavs lose.
However, we know the warriors are going nowhere without Curry. If I am LBJ, I will be feeding Della the ball early in the game. If he knocks down a few early 3s, Curry will have to pay more attention on the defensive end. I might even run a few pick and rolls for Della just to test Curry's legs. This will distort curry's rhythm as the game wears on. I am betting that Curry is a better scorer than a passer, and he misses enough 3's to give the cavs a few transition baskets.
Its not over yet and the Cavs definitely have a shot. The addition of Iggy though has turned everything on its head. David Blatt has not found an answer to the Warriors small ball lineup and benching Mozgov has backfired badly. Iggy has taken over ball handling and Curry's main job is to score. The Cavs have to find a way to not burn out in the 4th. Maybe they try out Shawn Marion on Steph. Delly cannot run offense and defense for 48 full minutes which is what it would take to keep The Chef quiet

LMAOOO, the management of the Sixers are a huge embarrassment to the NBA..at this point I wish they could be relegated to the DLeague if they decide to tank again..
Their hope Joel Embiid is reported to miss the entire 2015/2016 season. Serves them right for shameless tanking

Not that his teammates are great or the team is the best or they are playing their best right now but he is the best. This means he is the team and he alone is playing.

The last time I heard this it was Ali. LeBron needs to chill with the mouthing abeg. Duncan is great and all but the way he plays with humility even when putting out numbers is endearing. A lot of players(even from other team sports) will rather credit their teammates to the press and not sound like a gorilla
Lool he is seriously taking the piss.

Last night Steph Curry took 23 shots and 4 FTs and scored 37pts. Infact 20 23
, 20, 17,
23 are his shot totals from Game 1 to 5

He is taking only 3 FT's per game but still dropping 28 per game in this series but fanboys swear Lebron should be MVP when The Chef has been more efficient

Lebron needed 34 shots to score 40pts and he only made 15. Only once has he shot above .45 in this series. Dude is clearly playing hero ball but try telling that to the fanboys

i think james should win finals mvp even if the cavs don't win. He has been hellova player in this series.
You no like PDP. Is it by taking almost 40 shots a night? If Steph Curry or Iguodala took 40 shots a night like LeStats you know how many points they would make? Abi is it the padded assists and rebounds? Don't let them deceive you They will not tell you the number of turnovers he made

Just incase you were wondering why we want Lebron and the Cavs to lose so badly

Who agrees with me?
I tend to agree. I think the Warriors need this game even more than the Cavs. Should the Warriors lose the Cavs would put their lives on the line to win Game 6, the Warriors simply cannot afford to lose this one

Steph Curry - 15pts
Lebron - 20-8-8
J.R Smith - 14 pts

Dude better pace himself. We know how he rolls in the 4th quarter

MRBrownJ:
what Alonso did was a DESPERATE move in order to be able to win the championship again. the way the Mercs are going, you know that only a fantastic car could take them down from where they are at......and sadly, before the season started, many believed that Mc Laren with a Honda engine could be the ONE.
Well he has miscalculated. AGAIN!! Like when he turned down RBR.

MRBrownJ:
this year, Ferrari/Vettel is the only one that can truly get closer to the Mercs (as painfully as i have to admit), both Williams drivers, especially Massa, aint got it just yet. last yr, it was all about Williams and RBR, this year it is "so far" only about Ferrari in the second tier.
Obviously! But my point is the Ferrari and Williams are at par. The superiority of Vettel as a driver is why he can get close to the Mercs and challenge them

MRBrownJ:
yes again, nobody is going to take this championship away from the Mercs this year, but Ferraris are giving them a hard time at the front, being very very close behind them.
I don't know about hard time. Barring a dramatic turnaround its still most likely another Mercedes 1-2. Even the RBR's were never this dominant

The Cavs where the underdogs going into the series the fact this isn't not a sweep is a postive for the cavs
I don't see how they can win this series now GSW got their confidence back.
Seriously if lebron had just only kyrie for this series CAvs would win this game in 5.
Its not that simple! Afterall Kyrie was there when they lost Game 1. If Kyrie was available where would Dellavedova play? Where would Mozgov see so many buckets? Certain guys in that Cavs lineup have simply not been performing. J.R Smith and Iman Shumpert complete flops
Sports › Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 1:26am On Jun 13, 2015
Funny its Lebron's lookalike who has been one of the Warriors best players so far. If not the best. Everybody goes on and on about Dellavedova on Steph Curry but Iggy has been doing maybe a better job on his lookalike

Decale:
Lebron
2011 game 4 finals: 0pts
2014 game 4 finals: 0pts
2015 game 4 finals: 0pts

This is what Epsn doesn't say grin
I kept telling you guys Lebron is playing very badly offensively and if the Warriors offense starts to click things would get ugly. 7/22 shooting with 0 points in the 4th quarter.

ESPN are well known fanboys of his

MRBrownJ:
Button did score some points so Alonso MUST score some points this yr....by fire or by force! i am going to seek fo that thread right away!



exactly.....and communcication is all what is needed here, in order for all of them to be settled, once and for all.



i agree...... but sadly, sometimes the misplaced ego of men will get in the way, and thus, they would rather let go of that r/ship than live a life which is below their expectations. as i always say, it has to FEEL RIGHT for you before you do anything in this world, whether 3,7 or 20 yrs dating.

@JLM
you sound like a woman who is trying to sell a product that is getting closer to its sell by date? i suggest you women focus on being HAPPY first, it will do you a lot of good... because, if desperately seeking for a man to accept you as a bride, is solely what you do during these "prime" years of yours, then i am sorry to say that you are wasting them away. be happy with who you are as a person, be content with what you got and what you have achieved, count your blessings, focus on you etc.... and when you do, find someone who will possibly love you as much as you love yourself.... instead of seeking for someone to make you a "seemingly" valuable being.

if you believe that most r/ship must end up in marriage, then you do live in fantasyland.
if you believe that most r/ship over a certain period of time must end up in marriage then you are living in desperation land.
if you believe that marriage must be rushed because a woman gets older (aka body clock) then i can only weep for the miserable union you will end up into, as soon as you marry the donkey that decided to settle with you.

a man is not ready to marry a certain lady, he makes it CLEAR that he needs some foundations before he does (anyone thinking of marrying someone without any is a damn fool)....and therefore, he sticks to his goals/aim in life. how more of a clear picture do you think the OP needs here?! our forefathers had better foundations in their lives, better MINDSET, and they lived in a time where people valued each other for the RIGHT reasons. you cant compare these great people with the miserable ones who live today.
I might not be married but I've seen my fair share and what I have come to realize is every woman loves 'Security' don't forget this an African society that places heavy emphasis on a woman getting married at a certain age. Its one thing to be the object of scorn and ridicule to strangers and mere acquaintances its another when its coming from your own blood who should know better. There are different rules for guys and girls that is why I can openly tell my folks I'm not ready for marriage and they don't sniff but a girl my age cannot try that (I have numerous gfs who are now married so I can relate better than most)

It takes a woman with superhuman emotional and mental fortitude to be able to hold her head high and not bow to these societal cliches

For me this is a very simple issue that we are just blowing unnecessary grammar on. Just like you I don't believe any man is compelled to marry a woman regardless of the duration of the relationship but it would be unfair to expect loyalty from such woman when the man in question has not made any commitment formal or informal. Marriages and relationships are a form of contract whether you like it or not and each party has their role to play

MRBrownJ:
so this thread is still up?!

as an avid Alonso Fan, and self proclaimed #1 Vettel hater, i have to say that this year is a disgrace (for me).

for Alonso to make that silly move to Mc Laren (we are still waiting for any sign that this will ever pay up), I CAN ACCEPT!
for Mc Laren to be as "really" bad as they are, I CAN ACCEPT!
to see Alonso retire over and over again, I CAN ACCEPT!
for Alonso to not even score a single point this year, I CAN ACCEPT!
for Vettel to move to Ferrari, I CAN ACCEPT!

BUT, for Ferrari "now" (after so many years) to have a great car that can challenge the leaders at the top, and its Vettel that will profit from that...... THAT, I CANT ACCEPT and its breaking my F1 fukcing heart!
Dude!! Try to accept that Alonso is a douche! Also realize that Ferrari had a great car in at least two of the 5 seasons Alonso the douchegoblin spent in Ferrari.

Also and the most important point Ferrari can't really challenge the Mercs. They need the Mercs to slip-up so they can take advantage

First tier - Mercs

Second tier - Ferrarri, Williams

They have failed to take pole in 7 races and you say they are challenging? How?

Difference is Draymond Green. 13pts. Mozgov n Thompson have also played quite well for the Cavs

You should watch Hazard play without sentiment.
He doesn't have the goal stats or Team trophies to show for now.
At the end of his career if he doesn't have atleast a UCL and top three balondor then he did not live up to expectation
Sentiments? You are the one being sentimental!

Hazard is a terrific player. I don't think anyone is denying his talent but his record clearly shows he is not yet fit to sit in the table of men.

We have drummed it into your ears ad nauseum

You cannot tell me Hazard is at par with Mueller or Neymar with no achievement or goalscoring record to show for it. At 24 and a half years

Mueller and Neymar extended their brilliance to the International level before turning 23

How can anyone tell me he is at their level just cause he creates a lot of chances against the likes of Stoke, QPR and West Brom. When he acquires their laurels then bring him for comparison
