i miss the quick reply. the new forum is different, & why i may not like it now (b/c its new), it will be nice eventually, but they shouldnt have done away with the quick reply. thats all i ever used.
anywaysss....this series is far from over. i had a dream, more like nightmare, that LA cruised to a huge win in game 5, then they beat us in game 6 in OT & kobe had like 50 pts, then i woke up before the end of game 7. we cant take this game for granted. beat LA while they're feeling down right now!!!! dont give them ANY momentum or let them feel good about themselves for one second. if we jump out to a 10-2 lead, itll be over, so lets just get off to a fast start
GO CELTICS!!!!!!!!!!! ONE WIN AWAYYYYY

Yeah this new layout looks good. Will take some getting used to. I did like the quick reply button as well. Why did they change it up in the middle of the finals? Should wait till some dead time in the offseason imo.
GO CELTICS. LOCK UP #17 TONIGHT this is OUR time.
PS. I do like the automatic end tagging when you do bold letters and other types. Makes things quick and easy.

Re: Finals Game 5 : Celtics @ Lakers - Sunday, June 15th (3-1)
When my buddy and I broke down the series here's what we came up with:
Game 1: Celtics
Game 2: Celtics
Game 3: Lakers
Game 4: Celtics
Game 5: Lakers
Game 6: Celtics
Game 7: Unnecessary
That doesn't bode well for tonight's game but the good news is that we didn't factor in that the Celts would storm back from an 18 point halftime deficit to win game 4. I thought if we came back and won the Lakers would be finished and we'd close them out in 5 so hopefully that's now the case. With Paul's knack for big performances in LA as well as in close out games I think we're in very good shape tonight.
Get the ball to the captain!

I'm not gonna lie, I want to see them win it in Boston.... but they still have to close this out whenever they can. Jackson's too good and Kobe's too good to be toyed around with... gotta close it out tonight, definitely...
Play that defense, take the ball to the basket, keep the turnovers low, and we'll be seeing #17 by 11pm tonight...

Re: Finals Game 5 : Celtics @ Lakers - Sunday, June 15th (3-1)
we have been jinxed out the wazoo the past few days.
everytime i look at the espn bottomline, it says "teams down 3-1 have never come back to win the title (0-28)."
everytime i hear SAS, legler, anthony, etc talk, they all say the fat lady has sung, they all say the series is over.
& now the nba store is tryin all they can to jinx us lol. etc etc
LETS GO CELTICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can't shake the conviction it ends tonight. The Ghosts of Celtics past will lead us through to the final slap in the face to the Lakers franchise. Winning No. 17 on their court. Celebrating like we did in 69. Exorcising the ghosts of Len Bias, Reggie Lewis, ML Carr and the Ricktator, the Vin Baker trade, the 97 and 07 lotteries. It's time tonight, FINISH THEM!!!!

I'm just about ready to head downtown to Staples. I live in LA so I jumped at the chance to see the game tonight. Only problem is I've got nose bleed seats and will be tormented by Laker-Fan all night. Let's Bring this Home Tonight!!!!

I don't understand the media sometimes. They were all declaring Game 4 over in the first half, and they were wrong. Now they want to declare the series over.
I just want to end this thing tonight before they get off the mat. I want no part of a Game 7 with momentum on their side, Kobe looking for a signature performance, and the pressure the Big Three will be facing about their inabilty to close out their first career ring in two tries.
