Yeah, the new-Dirk wants to remind everybody about himself, although he is not playing in the play-offs :D


Haha. :) Well, if you're Dirk, who can Martti be? Who is the European Magic Johnson? (Toni Kukoc)

Lai waves off Kobe's comments

DALLAS, May 9th (AP) - Despite harsh comments received from Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant, Dallas Mavericks rookie guard Leo Lai does not seem to be affected at all.

"I'm not worried" Lai said to reporters after practice today "He can say what he want's, it's his opinion"

Bryant had heavily criticized the comparisons that has surfaced between himself and the rookie from Hong Kong, here's what Kobe said - "Are you kidding me? I don't even know him. Is he saying he's like me? No, I don't know him. I've seen him sit on the bench a lot. He doesn't even play like me at all. Not even like how I was when I was his age. Don't compare yourself to me kid."

When asked whether he was hurt by his childhood idol's comments, Lai waved it off.

"I got no time to worry about these things right now" Lai said "We are in the playoffs, our focus is on beating Moses Chara and the Kings."

"Look, Kobe is one of the greatest players of all time and I'm just a rookie, I'm not going to get into the argument." The rookie added "I'm not going to cry over his comments and moan about it, like some Grizzlies players do"

Ironic thing is: wait till you see what happens on May 9 :)

Also, it's the fact that Kobe doesn't even know who you are. He's got bigger fish to fry... fitting since he and the Lakers were gone fishing back in April :D

In the meantime, keep debating with virtual Kobe.

Oh dont worry man. I am more of a giver than a taker. I will gladly take a decrease in pay in order to keep the noncrybaby player from the Baltics here!

You have me with a sort of split personality. :P

One time (At first) I'm a team-player, quiet, 'can't we all just get along' guy and the next I'm firing back at the ones who belittled me with tough words. :D

Anyway, I'll take either. :)

In real life, I hate Pau Gasol and the rest of the Spanish squad. Basically almost every European player in the NBA. (Other then Ilyasova, who's awesome. There are a few other exceptions of course. (Dirk, Gallinari etc..)).

Also, I smell sweep. (Y)

Stealth Complete Sweep Of Warriors
Game 4, First Round, 2013 NBA playoffs: Seattle Stealth at Golden State Warriors 113-105 (Seattle wins 4-0)
Preview | Boxscore | Recap | Highlights

Image

MAY 7, GOLDEN STATE (AP) – Kevin Durant had promised that he would get his team back to the Western Conference Finals but the NBA’s leading scorer didn’t have to work too hard in the second round as his teammates helped him carry the load against an underwhelming Golden State Warriors side.

Durant finish his quiet series with a 25 point haul. Reshawn Tyson top scored with 27, Allen Iverson and Andrew Bogut had 16 apiece. Jason Kidd finished with a triple double for good measure.

The Warriors were trying desperately to stay in the series as their whole team dug in deep with seven players reaching double figures. They were led by Brandan Wright and Monta Ellis who had 15 apiece. Golden State was actually keeping it close for most of the game. A Stealth 32-24 fourth quarter sealed the series sweep.

Stealth Head Coach Will Sit was happy to see his team through to the next round. However, he was also a bit indifferent about the extra rest his team will get leading up to the Western Conference Finals. “It’s great that we got the job done. It would have been better if we got a sweep in the (first round) against Portland. I’m not too thrilled about the time off though. I need to keep my guys stimulated and focused with practice.”

Durant was phenomenal in the first round but he was outshone by his teammates; especially Iverson who was a stud off the bench. Durant congratulated his teammates after the match, “Everyone really played hard. I guess they learn how to play hard from their leader. My team baby.”

Notes: Jason Kidd became the oldest player to record a postseason triple double. Only he and Utah Jazz legend Karl Malone have recorded triple doubles during the NBA regular season at the age of 40. Kidd was humbled by the achievement, “I’ve got to say I was lucky I hit a couple of shots. It’s great to continuing doing things like recording triple doubles at my age. Just luck!”…

Congrats on topping the Warriors, despite Monta's career high 10 assists. Jason Kidd is ridiculous!

Ah man, you're the one who started it. I think that you have ADD or something. Ever since Jay Gray did well, you got jealous and you snapped. :)

And well, you're the same European player as him :) So hate on yourself. haha But yeah, in the story you call him and ask him for advice.

26 points = good. 0 assists all playoffs = L-Train is a complementary player. Overrated. :D

Jason Kidd is awesome! The hardest thing to do with him is score. But I finally got him that postseason triple double. It was only gonna happen in this series.

At last my man J-Kidd finally posted a triple double (Y)

too bad about my performance, or lack of it, but you should post the minutes played as well and show that it was the coach's problem :wink:

dare, I didn't argue, it was all one sided :P

Sit, yeah, you should post that article on Thierry, he's asking for it :lol:
