Jeremy Lin Saves New York; Kyrie Irving Is The Truth

Kyrie Irving

Kyrie Irving is the truth. Twice in the final minutes, the second one accounting for the game’s final points, Irving (20 points, seven assists) hit crazy layups in the lane to push Cleveland to a 91-88 upset over the defending champs. As for the Mavs, their last shot ended in a Brandan Wright trey that almost completely missed the basket … You know Dirk (24 points) isn’t right when he’s getting disrespected by Andy Varejao (17 points, 17 rebounds). The wild man smashed on Nowitzki’s head on a fast break after Dirk got about five inches off the floor … Tony Parker DESTROYED OKC with 42 points in the Spurs’ surprisingly easy 107-96 win over the best team in the West … 17 points from Michael Redd (remember that guy) led Phoenix to a six-point win over the Bobcats, who are now 3-21 and quickly becoming the worst team since Richmond High School before Coach Carter … And the Kings held off Golden State in overtime, 114-106. Tyreke Evans (26 points, nine assists) and DeMarcus Cousins (21 points, 20 rebounds) both had monster nights … Some of the Dime crew was in Miami yesterday, and we got back to the hotel just in time for Kentucky’s 86-52 win over South Carolina and it felt like we were watching two teams playing different sports. Kentucky absolutely mauled an athletic SC team, doing whatever they wanted on offense, and South Carolina seemingly couldn’t even make a pass without the length of Kentucky making it a struggle. And Anthony Davis – good god. His 116 blocks (not sure how many he’ll finish with… he had 22 points, eight rebounds and eight blocks yesterday) would put him in the top 40 in the nation amongst TEAMS. He has more by himself than good defensive teams like Duke and Michigan State. ESPN’s Jimmy Dykes is saying all sorts of crazy stuff. He said that Davis will be the next Garnett and then followed up in the second half by saying his career will look a lot like Shaq‘s … And Blake Griffin (21 points, 11 rebounds, eight assists) nearly had a triple-double in the Clippers’ big win in Washington while DeAndre Jordan (18 points, 11 rebounds) sent down another stupidly ridiculous alley-oop, and L.A. as a team had their own highlight factory … No clue how we didn’t notice this before, but Reggie Evans HAS to be the leader of the all-bad hairline team. Dude doesn’t even have one. He’s rocking the Richard Jenkins … We’re out like Tiquan Underwood.

    and beiber you’re the kid in the playground dying for acceptance. If you weren’t you’d have shut up by now confident that your arguments spoke for themselves.

    Take a chill pill.

  • EN FUEGO

    Hahaha. Damn. Really?

    Oh hell no, no, no, beiber. Do YOU know who you are?

    Badly accepted? Outcast? Pretend?

    You don’t even have the cred to use those words, much less call anybody with anything close to that shit.

  • http://datpiff.com beiber newz

    do they sell them at CVS?

  • http://datpiff.com beiber newz

    hahahahaha you know what i just noticed?

    en fuego talks about ME more than he comes here to talk basketball.
    HOW FUCKING CREEPY IS THAT?!

    i’ve just gotten so used to his stupid corny jokes that i didn’t realize he always has me in his comments. every one of them.

    that’s so hoe-ish.

    wow. RESTRAINING ORDER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • EN FUEGO

    soooooo glad you mentioned that

    correction: I shit about you, not talk about you.

    Notice how beiber is sooo good at pointing out things like “dying for acceptance”, “corny”, “restraining order”, “dumb/talk nonsense” and has the nerve to accuse others of this when he himself is all that those rolled into one?

    - you accuse BI of “dying for acceptance”. so how come nobody likes you and everybody hates you?

    - you say UA talks nonsense because he has an opinion about Griffin. all i read was him merely pointing out there are others who are more complete & skillful PFs than Blake that deserve and earned it more.
    Then you scream, cry, whine and moan about something that wasn’t even said in the first place.

    - you keep saying “corny” but you use the term “island man” which is lame in itself and keep using it throughout the day. repetitive corny is as worse as it gets.

    - you call out “RESTRAINING ORDER” when it’s Dimemag and their readers who truly needs one from the likes of a self-proclaimed virus and Know-nothing-Know-it-all idiot called “Beiber Newz”.

  • http://datpiff.com beiber newz

    THERE HE GOES AGAIN !!!!

    restraining order !!!

  • EN FUEGO

    You claim to want to “talk basketball” but you don’t really want to. All you want is what you want to talk about. You don’t listen. You don’t discuss. You tell them to check their facts. But if and when they do. You become as visible as Melo’s defense.

    You love butting in about everything, so I butt back – with shit. Hahaha.

    And if you truly wanted to talk basketball and be “real”, then let’s see you explain those Knicks.

  • http://datpiff.com beiber newz

    i remember saying if the giants win the superbowl, that salty feeling i had from the L the knicks took from the boston celtics would dissipate. well, yea…it’s gone.

  • http://datpiff.com beiber newz

  • JBaller

    Oh man, this board is outta hand

  • http://datpiff.com beiber newz

    oh and with no baby wipes…mayweather would just be on his filthy shit.

    mayweather going to jail if and when b4 they fight…but he still might get some training in there. there’s gonna be at least one knucklehead thinking they can step up to him.

  • catdaddywhack

    im with you on the shitting part. after prison, his asshole will be as big as his moutch and prolly would fit a head as big as pacman’s.

    well, they make good points vs the knicks, for starters. dont mean just coz the giants won… u know

    haha. i don’t know where i’m yapping? but i take your jabs and keep it rolling my ninjas !!!! btw…you ever heard of a mobile phone? it’s a device that grants the ability to use the web while not being tied to cords in the wall. even so, you ever heard of a laptop? it’s also a device that allows mobility! but have you ever heard of an ipad? it does the same thing! go figure. we live in a technology world. the internet is part of that technology, so i will use it at my disposal. no offense !!!!!!!!!! now i am out like the pats too (sorry for the swag jacking) but fuck the pats !

  • http://datpiff.com beiber newz

    i didnt mean nuthin by that , it was meant as a harmless joke. i aint know what else to say

  • http://datpiff.com beiber newz

    i don’t think u wuld actually ever have the chance/opportunity to say it in his face. it was really just a dumb joke. shuda added the smiley face afta it, huh

  • Big Island

    Beib, you’re good peeps, but you’ve lost it. You’re mad that I had a conversation about A with a guy, but didn’t fight with him about B? That is a psycho bitch move. Not bitch like punk, bitch like that crazy ass asian chick I banged a few years back even when I knew I shouldn’t have done it. It’s all good, but do me a favor and lose my number.

  • http://datpiff.com beiber newz

    actually the only reason i said anything about it, was that you always seem to pin point every little thing wrong with me and your first time addressing me today was saying something like “beib’s mad” ? it was weird, so i thought i’d call u out. no 1 likes being called out especially when they feel deep down inside the thing they being called out for is semi true. so im not shocked u reacted the way you did. it was just missed-bullets to me.

  • Big Island

    Or, and let me know what you think about this, I said you were mad because of post #26. The one where you used all caps and exclamation points. You know, LIKE YOU WERE MAD!!!!!!!

    Look, it’s all good. Do your thing. Handle your beefs. Solve the conspiracies. All of that. I’ve got a house full of women making fucking necklaces, I have bigger issues here dude.

  • http://datpiff.com beiber newz

    you should look up the word condescending…

  • Jcash

    @beiber newz
    honestly you should just stfu, stop crying for sympathy,you would think after 76 comments and no one backing your ass up you would take a hint everyone thinks youre retarded. Damn, thus must be like the 5th time you shitted all over the comments section.

  • EN FUEGO

    HAHAHAHAHA. Psycho Bitch

    Looks like you need to wear a Straight Jacket more than a restraining o, beiber nutz. Hahahaha
