Re: Around the League - Playoff Edition
Obviously, Hornets and Spurs close out their series'. Sets up Spurs-Hornets. Go Hornets!
Pistons beat the Sixers, take 3-2 lead.
Rockets unlike other 2, stay alive and cut it to 3-2. They've shown they can win in Utah, but I think the Jazz close em out.

Re: Around the League - Playoff Edition
Wouldn't it be just ****ing sad if the Hawks manage to beat the Celtics and move on. And they won more games than us in the playoffs too.  I am cheering for them now though. GO JJ |

Re: Around the League - Playoff Edition
From the article I posted earlier from JA Adande. One interesting point to look at:
Quote:
|
Adding to the Suns' frustration was the lack of punishment for Kevin Garnett when he shoved an official and Kendrick Perkins and Marvin Williams when they stepped onto the court during a confrontation in Game 4 of Monday's Celtics-Hawks series. Where, they wondered, was this type of leniency last year when Stoudemire and Diaw made their little excursion from the bench?

Re: Around the League - Playoff Edition
I wish they suspended Garnett too!
Perkins is pretty much garbage so I would like to see him on the court for as much as possible. LOL.

I don't think it is in Stern's programming to admit when he was wrong.

He'll never admit he was wrong but I think he did learn a lesson. It's just too bad that it was at our expense.

Re: Around the League - Playoff Edition
Wow, Hawks force game 7.... Something tells me it will be disappointing, but I hope the Hawks make it worth a watch.

Re: Around the League - Playoff Edition
That game was really fun to watch. Sucks though, it's going to be tough for them in Boston. They've gotten killed there. Amazing how neither have won a road game.

But if Boston was to choke that game, wow. That would certainly go down in history.
I think Boston is probably going to win, but who knows. And Ray Allen is looking REEEAL old out there. And I think Garnett is reminding people why he had that label of being afraid to take over games. I see trouble for Boston in the next series if they win Sunday.

Re: Around the League - Playoff Edition
It would be the biggest upset in NBA History, maybe even sports.
Conf semifinal matchups. I really want to see a NO/Utah matchup in WCF. Probably end up with a predictable SA/LA.
East Conf Semis
(3)  vs (2)  (Game 1 @ 7:30est on TNT)
West Conf Semis
(4)  vs (1)  (Game 1 Sunday @ 3:30est on ABC)
(3)  vs (2)  (Game 1 @ 10PM est on TNT) |

I hope Spurs get owned.
Lakers have a nice path to the NBA Finals.
