Since this is a basketball forum, I just decided I should start at least one sem-related basketball thread this week . These have nothing to do with how GOOD the poster is... just the style. So if I compare you to Serge Zwikker... no offense! Sometimes I just used the type of player people seem to like... Me: Allen Iverson - posts way too much, but scores too little Achebe: Sam Cassell - kind of wacky sometimes (like ET!), but great to watch, and a winner Aelliot: Jason Kidd - this guy's efficiency scares me Behad: Mark Cuban - this guy's is the god of consumer rights; and Cuban seems to look out for the average fan Bobfinn*: clutch (the bear) because he always makes me laugh Bob Rainey: JR Rider - gets all the attention, even when his game is absent BrianKagy: John Stockton - might not always like what he says, but have to respect the way he says it ChuckieBrownFanClub: Charles Barkley! Really... well, ok, Chucky Brown, but just this once. Clutch: Shaq - he's the franchise DaDakota: Tim Duncan: it'd have to be a big man... and Duncan's DaDakota's wet dream: technically proficient, large, and smart. Oh, and he can rebound. Heypartner: Gary Payton - always running his mouth, gets people going, seems in control and has major authority problems like the Glove JuanValdez: Ray Allen - I always forget about him, but usually agree with almost everything he says Jeff: Vince Carter - dunno why really, just wanted to pick someone good mango: Charles Oakley -our enforcer... nuff said Rimbaud: Matt Bullard - seldom shows up on the court, but seems like a really cool guy in the hangout forum Rockhead: Jason Williams: think real hard about this one . Rocketman95: Doug Christie - great defender (of Clinton), all-round poster Rocket River: Cuttino Mobley - it took a while with his unusual posting style, but he really grows on you Shanna: Karl Malone - sorry Shanna! But they're both terse, efficient, and always deliver thacabbage: Hakeem - doesn't post as often as I'd like, anymore The Cat: As much as I want to say Jason Collier, I think he's more like Shandon Anderson - good defense (of people), hard-working, and solid TheFreak: Reggie Miller - just when you think you're safe, he nails you. Vengeance: Shawn Marion - most improved poster of the year ZRB: Dennis Rodman - kind of goes crazy sometimes, but a solid poster when he wants to be I know I've left a lot of people off, but I was typing quickly! Hope people disagree . ------------------ Lacking inspiration at the moment... [This message has been edited by haven (edited June 15, 2001).]
I think I'm more like Sam Mack! hahaha rH ------------------ visit: The Psychedelic Groove House of Rockets Basketball Love! visit: groovehouse.org
LOL, haven, but given heypartner's correct assertion that I never post in the basketball threads anymore, I'm probably more like Jayson Williams. Lots of semi-interesting, smart-ass things to say, but no game whatsoever anymore.
What about me!? You FREAKING left ME off the list! It's all about me! Come on pass me the rock! I want my touches to! ------------------ "I'm not here to protect my reputation, I'm here to make my reputation! Mama Barkley didn't raise no chumps!" - Charles Barkley
That's a pretty cool list right there Well done haven!! ------------------ blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
What about me!? You FREAKING left ME off the list! It's all about me! Come on pass me the rock! I want my touches to! Kobe Bryant.
can i be vernon?? pllleeeaasasseeee??? i want to hit the game winning shot in game 7 of an NBA Finals for my hometown Rocks!!! Pleeeaassseeee!!! ------------------
Mark Cuban? Hell yes! I'll take that AND his money! Anybody have Stern's phone number? I have a complaint to lodge. ------------------ I always thought "With my talent, it's only a matter of time before I'm discovered". Now I think "With my talent, it's only a matter of time before I'm found out".
------------------ Bingbong was set up, led to an untimely death in the prime of his life for no other reason than pure malice. Things like that do not go unavenged. Sometimes it spills out onto the field of play.
PS. Anybody notice how haven alphabetized the list? Nice efficiency! ------------------ I always thought "With my talent, it's only a matter of time before I'm discovered". Now I think "With my talent, it's only a matter of time before I'm found out".
Three more: gr8-1: Robert Horry - makes good posts, but is very, very quiet about it RichRocket: Anthony Mason - love his game on court... off-court, well, you know how we get along on the hangout forum SamCassell: Michael Finley - he's one of the most consistent, even tempered guys on the board ------------------ Lacking inspiration at the moment...
Keith Jones, always around but never mentioned. ------------------ Ceo of the Walt Williams and Lisa Malosky fan club. My Mockumentary atheistalliance.org
Great list! Really awesome! poor SamCassell. Ignored again!! and LynusWhatisHisNumber never gets mention. HOOP-T, A-train. RichRocket has been pouring it on lately. let me dish out some more scores to get more people involved Will is Chris Webber ... all eyes are on him when he takes the floor, but who knows where he is going to next. fatty fat fat is Two Sandwiches R0ckets03 is Lisa Malosky (DoD made me say it) Dr of Dunk is Carlos Rogers...the biggest crack up in the locker room and looking to tip in any missed opportunity when out on the floor Doc Rocket is Moses Malone ... who knows what the hell he is saying, but he sure draws a lot of attention and his speculation is usually spot on...."Fo Fo Fo" [This message has been edited by heypartner (edited June 15, 2001).]
haven: I don't do 14 year olds! And my criminal record is limited to 4 speeding tickets. Anthony Mason- the forward who wears out his welcome everywhere he goes!!!! ------------------ Time is a great teacher-- only problem is it kills all its pupils.
RichRocket: Maybe I should be Mark Cuban and you David Stearn... I manage to offend you no matter what I do! Sorry about the Anthony Mason thing... I had forgotten about the 14 year old. Was just going for the cantankerous part . ------------------ Lacking inspiration at the moment... [This message has been edited by haven (edited June 15, 2001).]
More properly, I think I offend you.... so I get to be Cuban and keep the money!! ------------------ Time is a great teacher-- only problem is it kills all its pupils.
HA! my posting style is too diverse to be attributed to a single player. I would have to agree with your assessment of rimmy haven, he is a scrub poster. ------------------ .,.·^*'´'|'\..........,.·^*'´¯¯¯'`*^·,...,/|'`*^·-, '|.......'|::\......,·'.....,.·:*:·,......'`i:'|.......| '|.......'|:::|.....;.......':,:::,:·.......';:|.......| '|.......|::;i - ·;i'`:,......¯¯.......,·´|::|.......| '|.......'´.......'|'i:::`*:~·.–·~^*'´: :'|::|.......'`*·-, '|........,.-:^:':'\:'`:;:: :: : : : :: ::;·'i::/`':^·.,......`'i '|..,.:'´:::::::::::'\| '`*^~·:–:·~^*'´..'|/:::::::::'`:^:., | '´:;:::::::::;:-·^*'´.....................`'*^·:;-.....:;·' ....`·;:·'´........................................'`^·:;·´
Criscokidd: Nah, you're not too elusive... I'd say Michael Jordan. Leaving us once in a while, but always coming back . ------------------ Lacking inspiration at the moment...
No, Crisco is like Oliver Miller. Despite his weight problems, he keeps turning back up in the league. ------------------ I have just realized that the stakes are myself I have no other ransom money, nothing to break or barter but my life my spirit measured out, in bits, spread over the roulette table, I recoup what I can nothing else to shove under the nose of the maître de jeu nothing to thrust out the window, no white flag this flesh all I have to offer, to make the play with this immediate head, what it comes up with, my move as we slither over this go board, stepping always (we hope) between the lines
