Those kind of deductions just never pay off , think about this , We beat Dallas , Dallas beats Portland but Portland has beaten us twice ! does it make sense , no !am I making sense ... probably not ! does the whole deduction kind of thing makes sense ? hell no ! I hope we win though. [This message has been edited by 3pointer (edited January 18, 2000).]
Oh, I'm sorry...my assumption is that when someone types something idiotic, then they are being an idiot...Maybe he should have used that sarcastic smiley thingy?? I sincerely apologize... Editor's note: The line "I sincerely apologize" was an attmpt at sarcasm. The author hopes that everyone realized this
A-Train. Obviously your powers of deduction are greater than those of anyones elses. Dude, save all the hostility for fans of other teams who come in here with their mistaken bravado.
Dreamshake, Dude, save all the hostility for fans of other teams who come in here with their mistaken bravado. I guess that would be the GSW, LAC, VAN and CHI fans?
Lets not forget the mighty Mavs fans either. [This message has been edited by Dreamshake (edited January 18, 2000).]
Obviously, I was being sarcastic, but sometimes it may be hard to tell, but if you like I will tell you, a-train... :{ akeem
I have also deduced that Pippen will not play tonite, he stubbed his toe this morning while getting off his fat butt to apologise to chucky at gunpoint.... akeem
Some people just take life a little too seriously ... chill A-train or you will get real old real quick !
Back to subject! With the dream back tonight the Rocks are going to KICK A$$!!! The dreaming never stops!
The old Dream isn't back, instead its the old old Dream who can't score. I hope he does much better this game because the Rockets really need his help if they are going to win. Otherwise, the Blazers will win once again.
A-Train, go to the corner. You're in time out. Juan, I like it when we can relax a bit from the usual "ho-hum" topics and have a good laugh. I found akeem's post, albeit short, entertaining because just before I read it, Pippen was interviewed on the radio saying that the Blazer's hadn't been playing well and he used the Dallas game as an example. Just because some people have objects wedged up their...well you know...doesn't mean we shouldn't be able to crack a joke once in awhile. Like haven said, lighten up people!! OH, by the way, in case you're the only one on this board that doesn't know...WE WON. I will NOT point out my attempts at sarcasm. ------------------ Tanking is not acceptable. End of story.
ATrain, we won you schmuck. If you're going to hang out here when we're doing so poorly, at least try to be positive. damn.
this just in...............Rockets 90 - Blazers 89...........Quitten was deduced to 5-15 shooting....he couldn't throw a pea in the ocean......akeem certainly deduced correctly.....A-Train, i hereby deduce you to a TIME-OUT........ [This message has been edited by James (edited January 18, 2000).]
Not to mention that Dallas was in a zone all night aganist Portland. If they had played the same way against Houston, they win by 20.
oh, akeem, that's WONDERFUL logic there, sparky!! My "deduction" is that you probably don't know what the word deduction means. Well, let's ask our good ole' friend Mr. Noah Webster... de-duc-tion a: The deriving of a conclusion by reasoning; specifically: inference in which the conclusion about particulars follows necessarily from general or universal premises b: A conclusion reached by logical deduction Notice some of the key words there, like "reasoning" and "logical" So, sparky, what reason or logic do you have to base your bold prediction on?? Maybe the fact that Portland was playing it's third game in four nights and that Dallas had three days off?? Maybe you didn't know that Michael Finley was pissed off at Pippen because of his comments on Finley's all star status, so Finley just went off for 30+ points? That's beautiful logic, sparky...Dallas beat Portland, so we HAVE to beat them, right?? You know what, I think we have a good shot at beating Portland also...of course, I'm basing my prediction on the fact that Hakeem is finally back, that Francis is playing his best basketball of the year, and that Matt Bullard finally has his shooting touch back after a short slump...I don't base my predictions on what I read in my Alpha-Bits every morning It's a good thing that you weren't around during the battle of San Jacinto... "Well, we have just learned that the Mexican soldiers stayed up late last night and are sleeping. Now would be a GREAT time to attack, General Akeem...what do we do??" "Well, the Mexicans DID defeat us at the Alamo, so my deduction is that they will probably beat us again...I say we give up..." Damn, son...if you weren't dumb, you'd be stupid...
