    Rockets Dynasty is right. I had the same revelation.

    I was at the game between Lakers and Wizards. Jordan was taking on Kobe in the post and Jordan tried the step back fadeway. Kobe's feet left the ground, did a 360 while in air, and took a swat at the ball.

    With both Kobe's and Jordan's hands on the ball, and both beginning their decension towards mortal ground, Kobe asked him, "What's up with the weak $hit?"

    Jordan replied back, "I have historically been a slow starter like Tmac."

    But then, while Kobe's feet landed on the ground, Jordan seemed to hang in the air, and he calmly re-released his shot for "nothing but net".

    Jordan dropped 62 on Kobe's @ss that game and after the game, I saw him walk over to Kobe, and say this to him 5 feet in front of me... EVERYBODY heard it...

    "But I always finish strong like Tmac."

    Later on I found out that Kobe was so pi$$ed off at this incident that he asked Lakers to trade Shaq.

    I think this was a consequence of the fact that that's the max anyone has. If you looked at the list everyone was at 67.8, 67.6, etc.
    I mean I was flying at 150 kb/s...and got shut down at 67.

    Then someone showed up with 100% and started seeding (R2K?) and I can manage around 30 now...instead of 2.

    Anyone else missing like the last 20 secs of the video?

    Windows media player shows it as being aroud 10min 14secs long, but mine stops on The mav's owners face....is that the end? (9min 40secs?)

    i think this was the first rox-mavs games on LP where they broadcasted from Mavs TV instead of Rox (well first time I seen it anyway). I gotta say, Troy Aikman is a dirty dirty ad w****. I think if you paid him enough he would have endorsed Brokeback Mountain. Can u imagine the publicity it would have garnered? I think Hollywood dropped the ball on this one.

    Troy: Many Cowboys in the past, recently during the 90's, have had their sexual orientation dissected and analyzed. Well for those of you who always thought the Cowboys were gay, you might be right...


    Sorry, I've just never seen so many commercilas for different places with the same guy in them. He's like the Ron Jeremy of local ads. Always pops up when you least expect or want him to. Plus I think both are jerk-offs...sorry, disgruntled Giants fan here who's still pissed about ESPN giving a promotional interview to Emmitt on his dancing gig while the Jints were in the RED ZONE!! :mad:

    Yep. I think it is the end, it's just that somehow the video encoding listed the length as longer so that's how it was interpreted.
    Not a big deal, probably a result of R2k rushing to give it to us (which I totally appreciate! 5 minutes earlier is worth a weird glitch at the end)

    You are not missing, its R2K finishing touch by showing the face of Mark Cuban. If you look at the player, the player keeps playing while the still image of Cuban is showing. Nicely Done R2K. ;)

    LOL how mad is he, i love it when he brings some of the playground skills into the NBA, its refreshing and cool, if only chuck hayes could make his lay-ups that would have brought the house down :p I really want to see him lay off one of those playground move passes to tmac for a spectacular finish :D

    Sounds like a cool story... except Jordan never dropped 62 on Kobe when he was on the Wizards. He wasn't even close, at most he dropped like 25.

    The real test will be how we back it up. the greats teams like The spurs allways backup great performance with another good or solid one. we gotta learm how to win regulary. thats what seperates the best from the rest. consistancy.

    Please tell me where you get your acid. It must be some damn good stuff and cause you to have some really strange trips.

    I don't like this photo at all. It looks like Dampier played solid defense and Yao struggled with his shot. In reality, it's exactly the opposite. Usually I don't buy conspiracy theory, but it seems that ESPN is continuing to give people an impression that Yao is "soft".
