NBA Playoffs round 2

You sound stupid. Like I said before Mutumbo is done. The east has no other real center but Alonzo Morning and Zo at 100% will **** all over Mutombo. You sound even more dumb saying the sixers do not miss Iverson points when he is not in the game?That is why they can\'t win a playoff series without him. And they have a ****ty record when is not in the lineup. And you loose all credibility with me mentioning DC. DC is the most laziest slowerst PF in the game he just refuses to get better. Thats one reason he bounced all over the league.

In the games before Iverson rejoined the Sixers at the beginning of the season, Mutumbo averaged 12.4 points, 12.8 boards per game.  Last I checked, that was pretty good.  Add to that the fact that he was last years defensive MVP.  And add that in that span he had one really bad game (3 points, 6 boards) which brought his numbers way down.   14.75 points and 14.5 boards per.  That isn\'t bad at all.  A lot of it is also the system he\'s in.  I happen to think Philly\'s offensive system is horrible.  And this is coming from a Knicks fan.  As for not being able to win a playoff series without him in the lineup, what are you basing that on?  When was the last time they had a playoff series without him?  

Anyway, I guess we aren\'t gonna agree, so I\'ll just stop arguing back and forth.  I guess it\'s just a matter of opinion, and I\'ll leave it at that.

And Fayded, you sound a hundred times stupider than anyone else in this thread.  I gotta agree with QuDDus on this one, based on what you\'ve said, you know **** about basketball.

And yes, they would still make the playoffs with a decent to good PF. Like Elton Brand for example. He\'ll be awesome in a couple years, just watch. And if they got him (which I HIGHLY doubt) they would still make the playoffs. Him and Wally could become pretty good together if Wally got his head out of his ass. But since they wont get Brand, Garnett should think about lowering his contract so he can get some more talent around him. Then they might not lose in the first round....

Wow, you do know **** about basketball...

First of all, you can\'t lower your contract.  That isn\'t something you are allowed to do.  It\'s a contract, you\'re stuck in it.

Garnett is light years ahead of Brand.  Brand is good, but he\'ll never be half the player Garnett is.  Brand and Wally would get you nothing more than a ****ty lottery pick.  

One thing you might wanna notice here Fayded.  When everyone else argues, they back up their arguement.  They use stats, figures, information that can be proved.  You have said nothing factual yet, just off base opinions that everyone but you realises are very wrong.

That has to be the most rediculas thing posted yet. Maybe sports isn\'t your thing??

Want stats? Here you go..


Rebounds:

Garnett - 12.1 a game

Brand - 11.6 a game


Points:

Garnett - 21.2

Brand - 18.2



All of this while KG plays 3 more minutes than Brand. And in those 3 extra minutes Brand could easily score at least 2 points and grab 2 boards. There\'s your stats. *****.

Edit: All of this while Brand is in his 2nd year....he\'ll never be half the player Garnett is my ass.

Let\'s not forget that Garnett had more than twice the assists, which was one of my major points about him.  He also defends much better.  Garnett is also a better talent.  

And you say he\'d get 2 more points and 2 boards in another 3 minutes?

Project that over a 48 minute game, and you have 32 points and 32 boards a night.  You must think pretty highly of Brand... :rolleyes:

And once again, Garnett could get a lot more than he does.  He\'s just the most unselfish player in the game, so he doesn\'t.

And Garnett came out of High School.  He\'s only like 1 year older than Brand.

You have no idea how much of an idiot you sound like...

Sure, he\'s only a year older. But he\'s been pro alot longer. And if you know anything about sports, you would know that players get better faster by playing against tougher competition. Give Brand 2 or 3 more years. And yes, the Wolves would make the playoffs with Elton Brand.

And about that 2 points and 2 rebound thing. I\'m not saying he would get that every 3 minutes, I\'m saying that he COULD. Jesus.

From the posts you\'ve made here, and from talking to you on AIM, you have proved to be incredibly ignorant on this subject Fayded.  No one agrees with you, take a hint.

I\'m not even gonna argue anymore.  Ignorance pisses me off too much.

Am i supposed to care what people think? If i am supposed to care, I don\'t. Wait until Brand has 5 years expierence in the NBA like Garnett does, then we can compare them. My ignorance is making you mad? Try seeing things a different way for once, and realise that Brand is alot better than you give him credit for.

All I\'m saying is that Brand isn\'t nearly as good as Garnett is.  I\'m not giving him credit for more than that.

And you aren\'t necessarily supposed to care what others say, but when no one agrees with you, sometimes it\'s best to take a hint.

And if you say that we should wait for another few years before making comparisons, then why were you the one who started to compare them?

Why did i compare them? Maybe to prove a point. You were saying that Brand will never be half the player Garnett is. You said i don\'t back up my opinions with facts. That\'s why i compared them.

Um, I only said that Brand would never be half the player Garnett is, after you compared them by saying that the Wolves would make the playoffs with Brand :rolleyes:

Besides, you proved nothing.  So stop acting like throwing out 2 numbers for each player is proving something.

It looks like Boston will beat the pistons but thats about it. They won\'t see past next round. It makes no sense for them to go to the Nba finals and get crushed bye the lakers.
