Awful.

At least it's not real life.

Fucking Lakers ruining and raping the quality of such a great association with their three-peat.

I feel with you guys. Even played complete game six (92-88 Cs win) to pull out a win for the Cs and give em a chance to win it all. I'm sry, but the CPU wants the Lakers ...


Sit, -.- you're the only one who is cheering. Kinda funny, I made this video with Windows Movie Maker and recorded the highlights via my cam. this method is pretty shitty, but I find the vid kinda good nevertheless

Were you drunk when you took the vids? Cause there's a lot of shaking and at one stage the camcorder goes up to the ceiling

Were you drunk when you let the Lakers win?

Fixed.

Fuck the Fakers

FUCK YOU ALL

Best association ever Nice recap man, I like it a lot especially the outcome

Let's go LAKERS!!!!

Luck the Fakers.

Sit, when the cam goes up to the ceiling, it's my cat trying to play with that ribbon on the cam not my fault ...

I hope the hatred continues, because I hate them Lakers, too

I didn't read it but it looks like very nice Finals coverage

Thanks guys. Glad you all like it.

This will be on hold for at least five days now as me and my gf are on vacation in Hamburg. After that, the offseason will start and the Sonics will be back at the main focus.

So far, thanks for all your guys support, practically pushing me through the first season as it is more fun with guys replying and enjoying what I do in here.

As always, criticism is desired and if you feel like anything would be cool to do next season, just post in here and I will see what I think about it.


Thanks for the first season and 14 pages of straight interest and support.

Thanks for the great portrayal of real life events

Enjoy Hamburg!

Have a good trip!

Fuck Lakers...
Have a good trip, I hear Hamburg is a beautiful place.

Carmelo Anthony declined his player option and wants out of Denver.

Anthony, Billups headline 2011 Free Agents Class

The 2011 offseason has officially begun as teams will be allowed to sign free agents next week, a date set by the league every summer.

Whilst this year's free agent class does not offer superstars like last year, it is still deep enough to change the face of a franchise and promises some valuable chips for teams who look to improve via free agency.

One team that will definitely change its face are the Denver Nuggets. Carmelo Anthony has mentioned often enough that he does not want to stay in Denver and declined his player option last Monday. Anthony wants to join the Knicks or the Nets, a sign-and-trade deal seems more likely now than him just signing with New York or New Jersey, because the Nuggets can match every qualifying offer and Carmelo Anthony is loyal enough and does not want to ruin his current team.

Apart from Anthony, the Nuggets declined Chauncey Billups' team option which would have granted him 16M$ for the final year of his contract. The Nuggets want to rebuild and keeping Billups is still possible, but not for that price.

Denver also wants to keep JR Smith and Aaron Afflalo if the can be held for a salary that fits into their rebuilding plan. Kenyon Martin might leave the Nuggets though, looking for a contender to join.

But there are free agents on other teams than Denver, that will draw a lot of interest from teams who can afford their services.

Zach Randolph is coming from another 20-10 season with the Grizzlies and is seeking a last, lucrative deal for the end of his prime. Marc Gasol also wants his services be paid properly, after nearly averaging a double-double with the still unsuccessful Grizzlies.

Thad Young of the 76ers averaged 14.6 points and 6.5 rebounds in limited playing time last season. The Sixers seem to put their franchise on the shoulders of Evan Turner. Is there a place for the talented Young on their squad, or more importantly, under their salary cap?

The Hawks are coming from another 1st-round exit and still haven't made clear what will happen with Jamal Crawford who scored over 15 points per game for them last season. JC is drawing a lot of interest from contenders looking to add a decent sixth man.

Same thing goes for Maverick Caron Butler, who was a key contributor for Dallas' big season (18 ppg) and Playoff exit (injury).

Teams looking for big men will have realistic chance to get a good one. Kendrick Perkins probably won't stay with the LA Clippers, Tyson Chandler is satisfied with his backup status at Dallas but is also looking for a solid contract. Greg Oden played his first full season for the Portland Trail Blazers and is likely to stay, but you never know.

You know that Yao will stay though, as the Rockets already announced they will offer the Chinese center a contract that he won't reject. Pretty cunning, given his injury history in recent years.

The most interesting story will be where Carmelo Anthony will land and what price this team will have to pay. Take a look at the NBA's top free agent per position.

I hope Denver can retain Afflalo

Another Melo drama here. Let's see where he ends up.

Melo will go to Phoenix...

Indiana.
