Recommended Posts

as of 4/17

East

Nets lead 1 - 0 (Knicks)

Pacers lead 1 - 0 (Celtics)*

West

Spurs lead 1 - 0 (grizzlies)

Lakers lead 1 - 0 (rockets)**

*- that was surprising, 16 point difference, i think pacers will sweep.

** this was very sad. so close.

i also watched the spurs game, wow that was a great game!! and have you guys noticed that Robert Horry, he has this look on his face, kinda like an inecent look. i've always wondered about him, and my gf told today that 3 of his children are mentally retarted. poor guy.

OMFG is anyone watching the Pistons game?

As Chick Hearn would say

This game's in the Refrigerator, the door's closed, the lights are out, the eggs are cooling, the butter's getting hard, and the jello's jiggling!

i was thinking.. if there is a possible way that we can bet on the playoffs.

so i was thinking what if we can bet our post counts! i know there more people that care about their post counts.. but this would require an admin to adjust our post counts.

i doubt it'll happen but i'm just trying to kill time between class :sleepy:

He stepped on the court during a scuffle when he was supposed to be on the bench. Automatic 1 game suspension by the league.

damn i was hoping he would be suspended the entire round.. he poses a threat to the pistons. i'd rather have the pistons play celtics than the pacers.

@ jorgeivan2k3 there are a few us, at least the ones that posted. i hate them to. funny thing is i'm one of the few pistons fan all the way from California and my family and friends are die hard laker fans.

sometimes when the lakers are loosing and i cheer my aunt gets mad and i'm not allowed to watch the game anymore :rofl: gotta have the spirit baby!!

He stepped on the court during a scuffle when he was supposed to be on the bench. Automatic 1 game suspension by the league.

any word on Richard Jefferson of the Nets? He definitely did the same thing during game 01 vs the Knicks, and since I am a Knicks fan I'll take anything I can get to help us get a W...

btw, If my memory servers me correct I am pretty sure that rule REALLY started getting enforced thanks to PJ Brown of the Heat flipping over Charlie Ward of the Knicks which led to a huge bench clearing, which led to the all time classic image of Van Gundy clinging to Alonzo Mourning's leg... ahh when the Knicks where the Knicks...

also after watching the first round of games I have changed my mind on somethings... not really who is going to win, but I do think some teams already might have the potential to sweep, mainly the Pacers & Pistons...

and much to my surprise Miami one, I really give Stan Van Gundy and the entire team ALOT of credit.

And the Rocket's were OH SO CLOSE!!!!!!!!

First of all The lakers have Kobe (who basically is a bunch of jordan 's career moves mixed with youth) and the same calls jordan used to get at the end of big games.Now the rest of the FAKERS are trash.....look All the laker haters have to understand that as long as Phil Jackson,Kobe (NBA Commisioner's new Jordan) & Shaq are Hollywood Celebrity's favorite players,they have to win......there is too much MONEY involved that's y they are going to at least make a run for the playoffs this season......it's all designed.If you are a fan of any other team u should just watch the games watch the offensive fouls shaq and the fakers dish out and see what i mean....but try your best to watch it unbiased (i have a hard time).And see the biggest conspiracy in sports history.It goes deeper like why the NBA is allowing the votes to go for YAO instead of SHAQ so the "TRIANGLE" Conspiracy goes off without a problem.THE LAKERS WILL 6 PEAT IF THE NBA wants them to.PURE AND REAL.

P.S. **** THE LAKERS AND THEIR FANS AND HOLLA AT YA BOY IN 2005 when SHAQ retires leaving KOBE 's bitchass for the new breed of badboy players in the league to destroy.....Haha laker fans enjoy your run while it lasts....BITCHES!!!

lol.. take it easy man. they have an all-star team and they're loosing!! and they have a really hard time playing the rockets.

to me that's just sad.. don't worry, they wont' make it past the 2nd round. :)

I hope that man :)

going back to class now.. and wait for tomorrow's pistons game.. nothing would make me happier to watch the the pistons kill the bucks with my gf sitting next to me and wearing her tight shirt that reads "pistons" (going to buy her the shirt today) :happy:

I bet the Lakers sweep... Along with 'sota and the Pacers.

I'm not a Lakers fan, before you all bitch me :p I'm a poor, tired Sonics fan! I'm also one of the original members of SFU! (Sonics Fans United) that arranged the plane over the Key on the last game of the season!

heh..

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.

    • We do it all the time on our IT Service desk mailbox to add a reference, in the subject line, once it's been logged and then it's filed into the appropriate sub-folder. Other companies probably do the same thing.
    • "No. The "New Outlook for Windows" does not support non-cloud mailboxes (such as on-premises Exchange servers). Furthermore, because the New Outlook effectively functions as a web-based client, it requires all connected accounts—even standard IMAP or POP accounts—to route and cache data through Microsoft's cloud servers. You can verify the accepted account setups using the Microsoft Supported Account Types Guide." Built to fail "New" Outlook is basically just webmail in a window wrapper and it's usefulness reflects that.
