Other Sports....non hockey

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

We used to lower our hoop to 9' and play half court in Burnaby. We looked like Pippen and Jordan out there

If you just shoot at the backboard you're shooting at 100%...plus when you get to our age, taking a dump allows you to easily dunk your long balls in the cooling toilet water before retracting them for the bowel movement

May have been my favourite play of the game last night. Gobert is 4 time NBA Defensive Player of the Year and the Alien put him in a blender.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

That was sick.

He didn’t even need to pass. Could have scored after the double axel, the pass forcing the triple Salchow was almost unnecessary cruelty. 😂

Speaking of unnecessary cruelty.

The Alien said this back in October when asked about giving up an open shot to pass to a team mate.

"I probably turned down a shot I could make with my eyes closed but that was to get one of my teammates a shot he could make in his sleep."

This was actually the reason I tuned out on the NBA way back when.

If you didn't watch Monday's Western Conference Final game 1 with the Spurs winning in double OT over the defending champions Thunder you missed an all time classic.

On the night Thunder's Toronto born SGA was awarded the league MVP for the second time in a row, the Alien went out and delivered a performance showing why he is the best player in the world right now. 41pts, 24 rebounds and untold forced u-turns as the Thunder saw him defending the paint and ran away. Most of his points were from within 5 feet of the rim because the two Thunder 7 foot+ tall players were in foul trouble trying to defend him in the first few minutes of the game. then with trailing by 3 late with seconds left in the first OT, he nailed a three point shot from 32 feet out. His lone 3 point shot of the night and only second one attempted.

Spurs all-star point guard sat out with a high ankle sprain, their starting line up was the youngest ever fielded for a conference final game at an avg age of under 24 yrs old. Rookie Dylan Harper had 24 points and 7 steals. SGA, who averaged over 30 point per game during the season finished with 24 pts and was held under 20 points in regulation.

In the season matchup, it was Spurs 4 - Thunder 1, after the first two Spurs wins, the Thunder sat all their star players for the 3rd game. Their one win was against an injured Alienless Spurs team.

Game 2 goes tonight, I expect more from the both teams.
