Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

      Re: NBA Season

      Spurs played a very weak and disappointing game. It's not as if the Lakers came out with full force and shut them down, I admit that much. The Lakers played with confidence and as soon as Spurs fell apart within the first five minutes, the game was pretty much over. I didn't, for a second, think Lakers would lose even when they were only winning by 2. It was all hype, last minute adrenaline and turnovers by the Lakers that gave them the opportunity. I do admit, however, Finley was on fire with his 3s.

                  Lebron's Worst Game


                  ORLANDO, Fla. (AP)—Never in LeBron James’ entire basketball life could he recall being down by more than 40 points.

                  Not in the NBA. Not in high school. Not even playing pickup basketball as a kid.

                  The Orlando Magic gave him a first.

                  Dwight Howard had 20 points and 11 rebounds, and the Magic rode a strong second-half start to go ahead by 41 points and hand the Cleveland Cavaliers their most lopsided loss of the season with a 116-87 blowout Friday night.

                  “It’s embarrassing,” James said.

                  Rashard Lewis had 22 points and Hedo Turkoglu scored 13 for the Magic, who remained percentage points behind Boston—but tied in the loss column—for the Eastern Conference’s second seed.

                  James finished with 26 points and nine rebounds but never did find his rhythm, shooting 7-for-20 from the floor. James stayed in for part of the fourth quarter to help Cleveland dodge its worst loss since he was drafted in 2003. Only Daniel Gibson’s 3-pointer in the waning seconds saved Cleveland from that fate.

                  Cleveland’s 35-point defeat at Detroit on Nov. 11, 2007, was the most lopsided in the LeBron Era, and a 17-point loss against the Lakers in January had been the Cavs’ worst this season. It was a shocking loss for a team with the NBA’s best record, which lost consecutive games for only the second time this season.

                  “It’s not about how many games you lose, it’s about how you lose them,” James said. “The last two games weren’t how we play the game of basketball.”

                  And the Magic made Cleveland look foolish.

                  Lewis made consecutive 3-pointers to cap a 19-2 start to the second half, a flurry of swishes and Howard dunks that simply overwhelmed Cleveland.

                  Howard called a players-only meeting Thursday night after a humbling home loss to Toronto that bounced the Magic from the East’s second seed. Players let out their frustrations, Howard said, and the venting let everyone refocus on the team’s championship goals and again look like a serious contender.

                  “We had a great meeting,” Howard said. “We thought it was going to be like a five-minute meeting, but it ended up being like 20 minutes. Everybody said what they needed to say, it was just something that we needed.”

                  Howard had a crushing block on a layup attempt by James that brought the home fans to their feet in one seemingly collective “ooh.” Howard smiled down court, and an obviously throttled James tried to return the favor but was called for goaltending on Howard’s hook shot.

                  It got worse for Cleveland—much worse.

                  A series of alley-oops, dunks and wide-open 3-pointers all seemed to connect for Orlando. And when Courtney Lee finally missed a jumper for the Magic during the spurt, Howard cleaned it up with a monstrous put-back dunk that began the chants of “M-V-P!” every time he shot free throws.

                  Things got so bad that even central Florida resident and the Magic’s most famous fan, Tiger Woods, left his courtside seat at the end of the third quarter and never returned. The Cavaliers had no answer, and Magic coach Stan Van Gundy began to sit his starters before the fourth quarter.

                  “We did not have a guy who didn’t play well tonight, not a guy,” Van Gundy said.

                  Everything seemed to go Orlando’s way.

                  Anthony Johnson banked a 3-pointer high off the glass from near the baseline to cap a 15-4 spurt that gave Orlando a 46-30 lead with about three minutes to play in the first half. The Magic went ahead by 17 points at the break.

                  “They kicked our behinds starting with Stan Van Gundy,” Cleveland coach Mike Brown said. “He and his staff did a nice job. They outworked myself and my staff, and their players outworked our players. From top to bottom, we got our behinds kicked.”

                  With Howard on the bench, reserve centers Tony Battie and Marcin Gortat combined for 10 points during Orlando’s second-quarter run. Gortat even hit a rare 3-pointer in the waning seconds of the game, and he walked out of Orlando’s locker room after the game holding the box score laughing.

                  “I have to frame this,” Gortat joked.

                  The duo not only allowed Howard to take a few extra minutes rest, they grabbed key rebounds, were active on defense to help hold the Cavaliers to 31.8 percent shooting in the half and even contested some of James’ hard-driving layups that kept him frustrated.

                  That would be a theme throughout.

                  Showing emotion rarely seen in the regular season, James was called for a technical foul in the first quarter after he was whistled for reaching in on a layup attempt by Turkoglu. James would have more reason to get riled up.

                  Rafer Alston reached back to his streetballing days when he was known as “Skip to My Lou” on New York’s hard courts with a nifty behind the back dribble, then spinning past James and finishing with a layup. The play was part of a 12-4 run that put the Magic ahead 25-18 late in the first quarter.
