Did they really need to show that? I had put it behind and now they bring it with no previous warning, okay I turned on the tv and they were showing it. Anyways talking about the 1998 NBA Eastern Finals between those pesky Bulls and my back then beloved Pacers :aaron: Damn you ESPN. :(

They like to do that to people.

Like throwing Magic Johnson up on screen every other time I turn in to their programming. Or bringing up Doug Williams and his miraculous quarter in the Super Bowl at every possible opportunity.

Williams was supposed to be the GM of Virginia's new UFL team, but he resigned in February to become the head coach at Grambling. They did name Marty Schottenheimer to take over for him as GM and to be coach as well so maybe I can go down there with a giant picture of John Elway and distract him. :lol:

Although apparently the team we have was the Florida Tuskers the last 2 seasons and they made the championship game in both seasons.

Well so much for that they don't have a starting qb listed on their Wiki page but Pat White is listed as a reserve...we have no chance. :(

Dude what do you have to complaint about?

Pacers at least gave them a run for their money so its not like they can live at the end of depression all their lives.

Its not like you're a Blazers fan or Cavalier fan. Now those fans got it bad. lol

I'm not talking about the post Lebron Cavaliers either.

Blazers do have a title in the last 50 years and are competitive though. It would be worse to be a Kings fan than a Blazers fan.

Still can't believe Reggie Miller didn't make the Hall of Fame this year but Arvydas Sabonis did.

That was before even having a chance at getting Jordan right?

So that really doesn't count. :D

Nah it was more than that. I felt and many people felt that we could for the first time eliminate the Bulls. Reggie Miller got on fire for the whole playoffs, Rik Smits was playing so great and Mark Jackson? What else can I say? The way the series went and to lose a Game 7, the fact that we could never win at United Center it just pissed me off. That was a great team and remember they went to the 2000 NBA Finals where we once again meet coach Jackson and this time lose to the Lakers in 5 :aaron:

Your a die-hard Pacer fan? I thought you were a Rocket or Spur fan (I forget, all I know is you hate the Rockets' mascot)

I was as a child a Pacers fan, but then after that debacle of a show at the Palace, I just got disengaged or disconnected. I must admit that I started rooting for them in the 1st round of the playoffs. I don't care what anybody says, they gave the Bulls close games in every single game of the series. Since I'm living in Houston, I got close to the Rockets, and I know they'll turn it around. And yes fuck that mascot :aaron: I wonder if the video still exists lol :unsure: youtube :D

1972: LaRue Martin over Bob McAdoo and Julius Irving. Martin retired in 1976 the Blazers won the title in 77.
1974: Bill Walton - Hall of famer and helped them win a title but the first of several high draft pick centers with injury problems.
1978: Mychal Thompson over Larry Bird.
1984: Sam Bowie over Michael Jordan, Charles Barkley and John Stockton.
2007: Greg Oden over Kevin Durant.

Poor Blazers. :(

That makes a very valid point, but I think the Clippers fans should feel worse too. I even forgot about them when I mentioned the Kings, they've never even had a division title. In 40+ years not one. Even the Kings and Clippers, Cavs and Wizards have something in their history to be proud of. Even the Timberwolves have a division title.

Well the Clippers have a number of things that aren't going good for them.

First its that they share a City, and Arena and with the Lakers, a far superior team.

Second thing is that the Clippers owner doesn't give a shit about his own team. He doesn't care to get a good studded team to save his life. Dude even berates his own players.

Third, their talent leaves more to be desire.

So considering all that I dont think you should feel bad for Clippers fans. The fact they would want to cheer for the Clippers tells me you want to be made fun of.

Maybe they're just big fans of the underdog. The Clippers are like a real life version of Major League or the Oakland Raiders.

The Bobcats, Clippers and Grizzlies are the only teams in the NBA without a division title. Of course Memphis has been around 16 years and Charlotte 7 as compared to 41 for the BlakeShow.

Are those the ABA days? When was the last time they made it into the playoff in recent years?

I just cant see any team losing to this blackhole of a team in a playoff bout.

Actually looking at that they have only won 2 playoff series, the conference semis were apparently the first round in 74 & 75.
