NBA playoff talk...

That foul though on Lebron should have been a Flagrant 2

[Dead_And_Gone]

Lebron and a cast of expendible crewman from star trek... lol

San Antonio. Just suffocating. Tough. Boring but they WIN.

Reminds me of the old Notre Dame Sunday morning football college highlights when
Parsegian was coaching. Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run score...
Boring but effective.


Dallas needed a PG change a LONG time ago, but they waited for the price to drop.
Avery is still a micro managing manager. (New Manager Syndrom)
He needed to let Kidd free lance a LOT sooner than he did.

The problem isn't now with the PG, it is the SG and SF positions.
4-18 won't win you many games. Totally absmal...
Josh Howard and Stack have been horrible in the playoffs.
Without someone to take some of the load from Nowitski, they are toast.
If Josh or Stack get hot, then it is anyone's series. Dallas, belatedly, figured out that
they can't zone the Hornets. Mano-a-mano... Win Win

The lakers have something besides ALL Kobe, ALL the time.
Yeesh, sounds like an ad for a strip joint.. lol
He has been wanting some help from day 1, and they finally have some for him.

Aww, Denver got kicked out of the playoffs. Tis a shame, I really thought they had a chance for being so close behind Portland during their 13 game winning streak.

Well, best of luck for my next favorite team, Suns or Spurs. Personally I'd rather watch the Suns, they are more entertaining. But I love Parker, Duncan, and Ginobli or however you spell his name. I'd be happy either way.

surprise of the day, celtics lose to hawks. it is really good game. hawks try really hard. i kinda surprise they can give this much trouble to celtics.

I'll cheer on the Cavs (Indians too for the baseball fans) but the team has been so up and down it's hard seeing them getting back to the Finals. You can't play three great quarters then slack off for one and expect to win all the time...although having LBJ does make up for a ton.

I will be very surprised if Detroit of Boston gets knocked but you never know...just look at Dallas vs. Golden State last year.

having lebron, not only scares the opposite. it also make the opposite works extra. then u have to see if the team mate do well. i really have high hope that cleveland will make it back to the final.

I am too. Being a Portland fan, I remember last time we play'd the hawks we beat them in overtime or double overtime by a last shot by Travis Outlaw. Then we entered the Rose Garden, the Blazers quitted early, and the fans hoped to just have a lose in single digits. Then All-Star Brandon Roy came in and pulled off the victory, which in my opinion was the best effort I've ever seen in the NBA, which is why I'm a huge Blazer fan.

As for them beating the Celtics, that's a big surprise. For being 60-15 or whatever they were and losing to the hawks who (I think) didn't have a winning season is just a surprise.

Can't complain, I'm enjoying them beating the Celtics

new orleans is gonna whoop some ass tonight

[ryanbatc]

What is basketball?

[33milk33]

Dallas is out.. too bad.. but i don't really like the trade with jason kidd. and i think that they will be really hard if they want to come close with what they've done 1-2 years ago.

anyone think 76ers can make it to game 7?
also how bout houston???

[BenKenobi]

Houstons not gonna win the next one although they held on for another.

And the 76s, game 7? Doubt it.

[33milk33]

WHOA... celtics and hawks at game 7... incredible effort by atlanta...

[BenKenobi]

Cavs r THRU!
