And also you build teams around superstars, not role players or coaches. You find a guy or two who does something exceptionally better than anyone else in the league, and build the the entire team around him. It's impossible to try to build a team off of role players, chemistry and good coaching. It's like trying to get people to come to your restaurant because of your awesome side dishes and mediocre main course. Just doesn't work imo.

I really wanted to root for Vancouver in this series, but find this group so loathsome that it is impossible to do anything other than root against them. One time, Timmy Thomas!!!
Go Canucks! Canada hasn't had a team win a while and vancouver was the best team all season - be nice to see them finish it off

quite goot, my fave season/series ending show ever is the last ep of six feet under, nothing compares imo

Apropos endings, how good is the intro to Game of Thrones? Both the music and the visuals are so extremely well done. With most shows I will snap-skip the intro after having seen it once, but I have seen the GoT one several times.

Where can I watch these online? I read the books but haven't had time to see the show yet

you can of course download it off the internets in other ways as well, but we are not allowed to talk about these other ways

quick noob question:

my comp keeps freezing up at random times, where it wont even allow me to properly shut down. it feels like its buggy, and whenever I Ctrl Alt Del to unfreeze it, it freezes on the Windows 7 Menu. HELP? How do I stop this from happening?!

I have already defragmented and cleaned up disks, what else could be the problem? It freezes when doing ANYTHING, most notAably i-browsing on both Chrome and Firefox. help please

It's turned into an isolation driven league that tries to maximize individual talent.

Lebron is awesome yeah, but honestly he's not quite yet a finished product. He's a facilitator and an awesome finisher, which is pretty much unstoppable in the regular season, but in the playoffs when defenses tighten up it's hard for him to dominate without luck boxing a lot of his long J's (luck boxing is probably the wrong word, but he hit a significantly higher % of his 3's in the Boston/Chicago series than in the Dallas series) so players have to tighten up on him and let him blow by with his first step. He also lacks a signature devastating go to move that he can fall back on (Jordan fade away J, Hakeem dream shake comes to mind) to score or create space for his teammates via a double team. Lebron is so made for basketball though that I think it's just a matter of time before he figures it out, sometimes we forget that because we've seen him for so many years already but dude is like 26 years old!!! He's got time.
he has a career playoff line of 28/8.4/7, good luck finding 5guys that did better than that

he's just held to an impossible standard, remember Jordan was in his 5th year of being the best player in basketball before he won his first title

Lebron created a ton of space, he created a dozen wide open shots for teammates each game, he was still too passive and played poorly
