He's probably referring to the length of it and not how it looks.

Yes that's what I meant. In terms of writing and length, I think it's ok, but might try to short it a little.

Or that it's fucking boring and a drag to read.

Content > Looks. (Does not apply to females & you.)

Always nice to have you on board, Jackal

Wow. Faggette injured. Oh no.

2500th post at Thierry's association. I'll never forget that. Nice 9 pages, I want more of it.

Congrats on 9 pages. While not the most enjoyable, it is certainly the most comprehensive dynasty by far. Should you finish an entire season with this, you'll have proven the aptitude to be phenomenal at a desk job of sorts.

[Clutch]

not sure i'll ever forgive you for ditching RJ for Maggunner, but this is easily your best effort yet man - keep it up! (helps that SA's doing well IRL too since it makes you less-likely to abandon ship for a contender )

btw, DOLPH Jr. is SO gonna kick some serious ASS! GO SPARTANS!

San Antonio lost to Dallas last night, GO MAVS

Manu, Duncan combine for 42 as Spurs rout Warriors
Preview | Recap | Game Info | Full Play-by-Play | Boxscores (GSW :: SAS)
SAN ANTONIO, December 8 -- The Spurs are on the run: in points, rebounds, bench points, and many more, and are running all the way to the West's best record. Tim Duncan posted his second 20-10 double-double in a row, Manu Ginobili scored 22 points and San Antonio romped again, their third victory in a row, this time in a 115-91 victory over the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night. “We're just trying to be consistent with this way we've been playing,” coach Gregg Popovich said. This “push the ball” style for easy baskets helped the Spurs outscore the Warriors 56-52 in the paint, en route to their 4th victory in their last 5 contests. “These players can get up and down, so it makes my job easier just to throw the ball ahead and let them take a shot,” Tony Parker said, who had 7 assists. The Spurs -- 3-2 on November 6, and out of the West playoffs picture at that time -- has the first seed with a 15-6 record; the team is 2.5 games over .500 to charge up the West standings. The Lakers are just there, at 14-6, and the teams battle each other on December 28. “The consensus in the locker room is that we kind of want them to lose,” Ginobili joked. “We've got four games against them, so we've got to go out and win them, there's no other options. Right now, we're playing great basketball and we want to continue to do that.”

In a great 1-2 punch, DeJuan Blair and Duncan led the way at the frontcourt; Duncan posted 20 points and 13 rebounds while Blair added 17 points and 6 boards. Parker finished with 12 points and Tiago Splitter had 11 off the bench. James Anderson scored 8 points, all in the third quarter. Monta Ellis led the Warriors with 29 points and 6 assists, Stephen Curry posted 18 and Reggie Williams 17. David Lee was held to only 8 points and 5 rebounds; a huge miscue came on Dorell Wright's performance from beyond the arc, a miserable 1-of-8 effort, yet found his way for 15 points. In the first quarter, Parker fired an overhead pass to a streaking Larry Hughes in the lane and the swingman finished with a thunderous one-handed dunk. Ginobili quickly followed with a left-handed layup in transition and the crowd erupted heading into a timeout. It was only late in the second quarter, but the rout was already on and the fans were rocking the AT&T Center, with San Antonio up by 23. The Spurs played in front of their third straight crowd of at least 17,000 fans. “Any time you have a positive vibe, I think good things are going to happen,” Splitter said.

How's this for good vibrations? The Spurs were shooting an average of 17.9 free throws per game, yet went 35-of-38 against the Warriors. “On different nights, we are capable of going to the hoop more times,” Parker said. “It's also up to the referees, but I'm not a referee, so I can't do anything about that.” The Spurs keep finding new ways to win and they got this one without much scoring from Hughes and the absence of Corey Maggette. When the Spurs led by 25 at the break, Hughes only had 5 points, finishing the game with 9. The Spurs scored 8 unanswered points to lead by 34 entering the fourth. “We were a little bit slow in everything we did,” Warriors center Andris Biedrins said. “It looked like we were stuck in mud. I was very frustrated.” Biedrins only scored 2 points. Golden State rallied a bit in the last period, with a 19-4 run and cut the deficit to 19, but Hughes answered with a 3-pointer, Parker hit two straight layups and the Spurs confirmed the win, posting their highest point total in regulation this season with this 115 points. The Spurs had a 47-37 rebounding advantage and their bench won the battle against Golden State's, 35-19.

That must be your best post in one of my stories, Lamrock. I'm in the process of trying some different things, but I like how it looks right now so I'm not sure, so this goes quicker. But a desk job of sorts, hey.

not sure i'll ever forgive you for ditching RJ for Maggunner, but this is easily your best effort yet man - keep it up! (helps that SA's doing well IRL too since it makes you less-likely to abandon ship for a contender )

Man, I hate RJ, I like Maggs, it was an easy decision Don't see ditching this any time soon. Final Four for the Spartans!

San Antonio lost to Dallas last night, GO MAVS

Ah, screw you

EDIT: Added a poll!

[George7]

Go for it. Trading away somewhat useless players for a solid pick on the next draft will be great for you i believe.You won't lose anything to try them.And if it doesn't work that good(in terms of team's depth),there' always the option of signing an experienced FA in order to fill the roster.

[The X]

Those guys you mentioned in the poll are shite. Nobody would waste a draft pick on them. If you don't want them, release them. If you want to keep them, just have them around for garbage time. Best for you to try to fill the bottom of your roster with young players with a load of potential then send them to D-League.

[john26]

damn...you beat GS even with monta's 29/6

Bibby's 3-point dagger stuns Spurs; Joe Johnson, unstoppable
Preview | Recap | Game Info | Full Play-by-Play | Boxscores (ATL :: SAS)
SAN ANTONIO, December 10 -- When the Atlanta Hawks and San Antonio Spurs intersect again on April 5, the Spurs learned a lesson on Friday night that might come in particularly handy in one of the last games of the season: they simply can't allow Atlanta to stay close late in the game, where the Spurs are susceptible to the heroics of a shooter like Joe Johnson. Johnson led the Hawks back from a 12-point deficit in the second quarter at AT&T Center, and assisted Mike Bibby in a clutch 3-point dagger that buried San Antonio on the fourth for the final 95-89 score. Bibby's 3-pointer to clinch the game was a play drawn up by him and Johnson in the last timeout -- Bibby was 4-of-5 from beyond the arc. “We needed to open the floor off Mike and get a balance,” Hawks coach Larry Drew said. “Tonight we were able to get away with it, it was a tough contest. We just have to have that desperation and play with the fury we did in the last quarter, night in, night out.” Johnson finished the game with 29 points and 4 assists, while Bibby added 14 points. Atlanta made 9-of-19 3-point attempts. “When you're opposing players like Johnson, Bibby, Smith, especially at their best... you've got to be more aggressive,” Spurs coach Gregg Popovich added.

Once up 45-33 in the second quarter and seemingly sailing along to halftime, San Antonio hit a wall offensively and Atlanta scored 12 unanswered points to tie the contest. From there, the game turned into an instant classic with the lead changing hands five times and tied at least two more times. Jamal Crawford took over and had two big baskets, a shot from the charity stripe and a non-expected offensive rebound down the stretch to pace the Hawks; he posted 17 points, but none bigger than the jumper he hit over Tony Parker to tie the game at 45. “We had a big lead, but let them stay close and then Johnson started making shots and getting all the calls. We can't let that happen,” Parker said. Al Horford added 10 points and seven rebounds for the Hawks; he had a big three-point play, drawing contact from a dunk, and later a free throw in the fourth period to help the Hawks build a 5-point cushion. “The way we responded showed that we know how to play with poise and composure when we need it,” Horford said. With Atlanta's bench struggling (San Antonio's bench won 41-11), Josh Smith had to play 43 minutes for the Hawks, cruising to 14 points and 14 rebounds. Marvin Williams was the best Hawks backup, with 6 points.

This game marked the Spurs' second Hardwood Classics night this season (the first, November 17 against the Chicago Bulls). Parker posted 13 points and 10 assists -- 8 on the first half -- to go with 4 rebounds, while Manu Ginobili led the Spurs offense, scoring 14 points and hitting two key 3-pointers in the third. Corey Maggette's last week absence is a thing of the past, but couldn't step up for the challenge and only scored 3 points -- 1-of-9 from the floor -- and 5 fouls in 13 minutes. Tim Duncan and Larry Hughes had 12 points each. Rookie James Anderson and backup Antonio McDyess netted 10 points each; McDyess grabbing 14 boards, for his first double-double of the season. Said McDyess: “You just can’t sleep on the Hawks. These guys are dangerous, we have to be ready for when we face them again.” The Spurs are now off until this Sunday, when they host the Portland Trail Blazers -- 10-11, 9th in the West. McDyess added the Spurs have become adept at regrouping. “One thing I'm very excited about is the way we bounce back after a loss. When we lose two or three, we never let those games hang over our heads. We always bounce back, we hate to lose. Hope the Blazers are ready for us.”

Two very different answers. If I make a trade, I'd only trade them for a 2nd round pick and to teams with only a couple of players in their positions. If I don't, well, will play them against lottery teams... I already have Cousin and Gist in the D-League, will post a report of them after a month of action (I think it's December 19).

damn...you beat GS even with monta's 29/6

Well, only Monta and Curry were a big threat. Biedrins is nowhere to be seen on offense, Wright was off for the whole night...

Thanks a lot guys I must admit that I'm already thinking of my next story, lol. But I will finish at least a season here.

Clutch's the Swede prospect. I will try to get all NLSCers drafted by the first round.

That's not good to hear. What's the point of having NLSC-ers & all the draft coverage if you're only looking to play the one season?

[john26]

Balanced scoring by Spurs still not enough to beat JJ

[shadowgrin]

I hate the draft in this story for using the name of Dolph Lundgren in such mockery. He finished more things than the thread author ever will.

As a teenager he tried judo, Gōjū-ryū and took up Kyokushin karate. Lundgren now holds the rank of 3rd dan black belt in Kyokushin. He won the European championships in 1980 and 1981 as well as a heavyweight tournament in Australia in 1982. He was also captain of the Swedish Kyokushin karate team, and was a formidable challenger at the 1979 World Open Tournament (arranged by the Kyokushin Karate Organization) when he was only a green belt.

He graduated from the Royal Institute of Technology. He has a master's degree in chemical engineering from the University of Sydney (1982). He was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1983, but he quit after two weeks to pursue acting. He speaks Swedish, English, Spanish, some German, some French, some Japanese, and some Italian. Lundgren completed his mandatory military service in Sweden at the Amphibious Ranger School.

This one shows his badassery:

In January 2009, Lundgren's Marbella home was reportedly broken into by three masked burglars who tied up and threatened Qviberg (wife), but fled when they spotted a family photo and realized that the house was owned by Lundgren.

Photo. Fear.

[Houndy]

Thierry, really? And trade them for me

[kibaxx7]

That's not good to hear. What's the point of having NLSC-ers & all the draft coverage if you're only looking to play the one season?

I've already said it before (Valor killed me), I might be thinking of another story but I don't see any end for this one anytime soon. I'm aiming at 2 seasons: finish this one at least. You guys have nothing to worry about... why did I even mention it? Just pretend it didn't happen...

The e-stroking his cock is receiving?

As I said I always laugh at all the jokes... keep them coming man

Balanced scoring by Spurs still not enough to beat JJ

I actually love how my bench is playing. If I remember correctly my bench won in all my 22 games so far.

I hate the draft in this story for using the name of Dolph Lundgren in such mockery. He finished more things than the thread author ever will.

Clutch chose the name for his virtual counterpart, I didn't... why would I compare myself to Lundgren?

Thierry, really? And trade them for me

Nah, may keep them around.

[shadowgrin]

The e-stroking his cock is receiving?

As I said I always laugh at all the jokes... keep them coming man

Who said it was a joke.


Clutch gets a free pass for using Dolph Lundgren's name because of the header he did for Lamrock.
For the rest of you, let that be a reminder.

[Jackal]

As I said I always laugh at all the jokes... keep them coming man

I don't get why all the hate Jackal. I really didn't do anything to you. Just relax, man.

[kibaxx7]

Ah man, screw you
