Listed below are links to weblogs that reference Woo-Hoo!!!:
was a great game. I guess this will teach the Suns, if they needed any further teaching, that they can’t just outscore all the teams all the time.
:) Another week like this imm’ly after the break and I’ll become a serious believer

Avinash, it was awesome! I think we have had a great week, most of it without 3 key players. I am drooling at the thought of what we can be once the entire team is healthy for more than two weeks at a stretch.

you don’t seriously believe you can beat Duncan and co

x, I do believe it isn’t as impossible as most people think once the entire team is available at full strength. If we are like this working through adversity, we can definitely do better once we are feeling better.

1. the whole of dallas seriously wants nash to lose, right? especially when everyone attributes sun’s success to him…
2. very often, when everyone is back to being healthy the team does not do as well.. hope that does not happen to this team.
[i do not root for dallas or phoenix… i am not telling who i root for since they suck big time this year :( ]

Hari,
that wouldn’t be NY by any terrible chance, would it?
:) I studied in RPI, which is in upstate NY in the era of coaches hanging on to the ankles of players, and was a Knick fan then.
Now…shudder.
But I agree - the Mavs have been playing short handed for a while now, and when they are back to full strength, it will involve a significant adjustment period.
I feel that for them to have a chance, Dampier and Co would have to do well inside. Outside shooting by itself is unreliable through 7 games.

Hari, ingeneral all Mavs fans have wished nothing but luck to the players that got traded. Nick Van Exel, Najera, Jamison are a few examples. The problem with Nash is how he badmouthed everybody after leaving by saying that Phoenix fans were better and crap like that. He did whatever he had to do - he didn’t have to play martyr. That is why I personally hate him.
I agree that there is going to be some readjustment time and Finley is probably going to bear the brunt of it. I hope he will take it better this time.

I was just kidding… Whats fun in a game if you do not have someone to love and hate… I still hate Marbury for ditching my team (avinash, i am not a sun fan; so that leaves us with only two teams)
Posted by: Hari at February 19, 2005 6:42 PM
well i’ll assume that nobody likes New Jersey very much:) so…the T’Wolves?
Posted by: avinash at February 19, 2005 9:32 PM
Hari, I am sorry for jumping on it - there are many people on the Mavs forums who keep talking about him, so it was a reflex reaction.
Avinash, you mean to say someone likes the Wolves with Crime Spreewell on them?
Posted by: Shanti at February 20, 2005 11:21 AM
I do. (looks down at his bootlaces and mutters in embarassment)
No. Make that I did.
The folks Garnett has to put up with, the poor guy. Although I think that Cassell is no less a tyrant himself.

Well, after watching the Kobe-like proportions of drama queen performances Garnett has been delivering of late, all I have to say is, heh! :p
