Cristalz: LeBron doesn't miss like Hazard did....5 good balls into the stands, remember.

Not to rain on the Hazard parade, but I think it's kinda insincere the way his blurry goalscoring vision tonight is being conveniently swept under the rug.
Hahaha if I hear say LeBron no dey miss!! Its just this year that he made that big step! U need to see him last year

Don't remember him missing a clear chance on goal! A few scoffed shots,blocked ones too but hey The guy setup 3 goals. Let him live

Roland17: The mavericks have lost touch, acquiring players like O.J Mayo, Elton Brand and Darren Collison does not convince me they can challenge for the west, the organization is in turmoil, player/owner relationship is abysmal. my only joy is D.Nowitzki deservedly got his ring..
I think you are too quick to write off the Mavs I can remember this was what they said in the 10-11 season when we got Chandler and Deshawn Williams. Apart from the Lakers and tentatively OKC I don't see any other team head and shoulders ahead of the Mavs. Mark Cuban was too much in a hurry to dismantle that team last season for reasons best known to him. Probably he was looking at potentially getting Dwight and Deron, Obviously that didn't work out but I'd take Team Chemistry over Star Power any day

davidif: Magic and Stephen A. echo some of my sentiments. Westbrook is a source of headache for some of us, he can be too erratic and unpredictable. There is some perception in the league that the guy might not ever be able to develop the decision making ability that some of the upper echelon guards have. That's why i say we trade him for a REAL PG. We can trade this guy for any other point guard in the league (maybe except Derrick Rose).

Secondly, i don't need my point guard to be a top 10 scorer in the league (he was actually no. 4 in scoring in the league), i need him to be the QUARTERBACK OF THE TEAM. He needs to know HIS JOB which is to find Durant and get out of the way. There were several times in the Finals when KD couldn't get the ball and i am wondering, is KD actually in the game at at all? Westbrook needs to know his job and stick to it and stop playing HERO-BALL!!!!!!!!!

As for the part about Westy being an "execellent" defender; did you guys see Tony Parker take him to school during the San Antonio series this year? If it wasn't for the fact that Scott Brooks decided to put Thabo Sefolosha on TP, San Antonio might have swept us in that series.

Finally, about James Harden, would you rather we let him go free at the end of next season (the dude is a budding superstar who averages a whopping 17 pts a game from the bench) or we trade him for someone else? We can't afford to resign him as we might fall into the luxury tax category.
Stephen A is too emotional jare plus he is also erratic and unpredictable! Didn't he predict OKC would win in 5? I'm sure they would have been saying the same thing had OKC won that series
The perception is nonsensical! Maybe people just need to give the boy a break! He is not even 24 yet remember? And is already a multi-allstar Even guys like Kidd,Stockton,Jackson,Nash,Billups where not all-stars at this point of their career.
When last did any team win the title with a "Real Point Guard" (Jason Kidd at 38 don't count) I thought its been established that you don't really need a "Real PG" to win the league. Try telling Durant that they ought to trade Westbrook

This is not American football! The Spurs,Lakers,Bulls built dynasties without a real PG. I really think you are directing your frustrations at the wrong people! Did you see how hard Durant was trapped in those Finals at key stretches?
More help from the supporting cast is what you guys needed. Your players save for Durant are offensively challenged! Just look at your starting V!


Tony Parker would give any player a hard time! I challenge you to name 5 PG's that defend better than Westbrook! Is it Paul,Williams,Parker,Chalmers,Rose??

If that's the case then maybe you guys have no choice but to trade but it would really phuck up the team chemistry

@Cristalz
Scholes and Giggs still playing is/was like McCain running for presidency with Obama at 72 back in 08! Come on at a point you have to let these wiggas go! Scholes is pushing 38 and Giggs pushing 39!! They may have the odd masterpiece game based on say ko le tan lara omoba, but by and large their presence would wind up doing more harm than good! They are clogging the pipeline for younger more ubiquitous players to come through and this has actually slowed down Utd's building process. Even almighty Milan have jettisoned their pensioner policy releasing (Seedorf,Gattuso,Van Bommel,Inzaghi,Zambrotta,Nesta,) in the close-season keep in mind all these guys are younger than Scholes et Giggs

Giggs being called for the Olympics was a courtesy thing. Allowing Giggs to retire without playing in an international tournament would have been ungodly grin grin

dayokanu: A40, You see what i told you about Song when you were comparing him to Gustavo?

Song is one of the most indisciplined DM in Europe, One or two fancy passes would make you forget all his defensive failings. This article was exactly what I told you about Song 2 weeks ago . Maybe Carlo Garganese comes to NL Bayern thread to read my post wink
He can't be that bad! Else Barca would not have paid that much for him! Arsenal is a generally indisciplined team defensively. Gustavo fits in Bayern by and large because he is partnered by an excellent CM in Schweini. I'm not saying Song does not have his weaknesses but he isn't that useless

Ribery I can stand but Robben and Kroos I can't. Shaqiri was the star of the show tho. He and Mandzukic seem to have adapted almost immediately!


Javi Martinez: The saga continues. . . .

1025: what do u expect when u have a 98 years ancestor as a coach. fergie's system on auto reverse and that is why when berbatov was leading the goal scoring chat in epl, he pushed him to the bench and when over-hot was worrying chicharito, he brought in welbeck. was tevez not the wonder man while he was on loan at man u yet fergie left him to go? it is obvious fergie wants to take man u back to where he picked them from
. apart from howard webb, man u is ordinary. the team is built around howard webb and whenever he is not involved, the team struggle so much.
And they say u don't make sense! Shiiiiii

@Cristalz
Why can't Fergie just retire those old muchachos? Scholes and Giggs! Their mate Pippo Inzaghi is already coaching juniors at Milan

Dr Kit would love this. Personally I think this analyst has a beef with Song! Some parts of his analysis bordered on the asinine. Try pairing Busquets with Aaron Ramsey and let's see how far he would go

@Roland
Why does your list not include the Mavericks? We are still in the game grin we've gotten younger this off-season and made a few decent moves! If everyone is healthy we would make some noise
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by A40(m): 10:34pm On Aug 20, 2012
I always say this if Nani is going to have a good game you would know within the first 30mins. That aside what I saw was almost Arsenalesque! Horizontal passes in the final edge without no conviction or cutting edge. Aside from the corner kick I am not sure I saw Van Pasee the rest of the match

You guys should organize a testimonial for Scholes already! What the feck is he still doing for yall?

Kagawa would need a strong counter-attacking game to flourish sadly Everton packed the bus right after the goal rendering Kagawa useless

davidif: We can trade James Harden for another scorer. Guards like him are a dime a dozen in the NBA but shot blockers like Serge are a premium.
Besides, now that we are at it, we can trade Westbrook for A REAL point guard.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrxfxpqPeq8&feature=related
Really? Do you think it works that easily? Scorers may be a dime a dozen but that doesn't guarantee they would function with the system on ground

You want the OKC to trade Westbrook?? If only I where Mavs GM and you where OKC GM. For whom if I may ask? How many games has he missed since joining the NBA? 0! In 4 seasons do you know how hard it is to find a player like that? A PG that is an excellent rebounder can play defence and actually guard people but is also a top 10 scorer in the league. Plus his assists have improved this year ohh I forgot he is only 23 as well! By all means trade him and let's see how far y'all will go. I'm not saying he is perfect his shot selection is shaky at best but PG's have never been renowned for their shooting!

As for the clip don't mind Magic! There is a reason why great players don't make good coaches or GM's. The GOAT is a fantastic example we can all see what he is doing with the Bobcats

You guys ought to win this match! A narrow margin but a win nonetheless. Everton are traditionally slow starters but then again you never know what the Toffees decide to bring to the table

dayokanu: 40,

I tire oooo. See scam. They dont want bayern to pay it but want Martinez to pay so he can incur another 6m tax. Imagine?

I trust Ulli to handle them. You see how difficult it is to make transfers nowadays
This is what happens when muchachos that should be dealing cocaina are put in charge of football clubs! In essence the guy wants us to pay 45million! I think this is where Uli should make a stand 40million and not a Euro more or the deal is off! They need the guap more than we need Martinez! Afterall he is not why we didn't win the UCL
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Offical Bayern Munich Fan Thread: 6x Champions Of Europe by A40(m): 3:53pm On Aug 20, 2012
dayokanu: Kindly explain
This Basque people and their idiosyncracies! This transfer is getting more complicated by the minute! Though Martinez was not listed for Bilbao at the weekend which is a good sign

Urrutia does not want direct payment from Bayern but wants the payment to be done via Javi Martinez? Are these guys mad? This is looking more like a drug deal than a player transfer! We pay 40million and 6million is immediately deducted as tax. This is extortion simply put
