NBA Playoffs
 
Well the Pistons are doing very good, after blowing out the Cavs in game 1. However, the NBA has been fucking up the TV schedual with reguards to having that game be in prime time, while the close game was forced to be played at noon pst. Anyone else watching the games?

I'm (was) watching the Lakers, Clippers, Heat and Nets games very closely. I was extremely disappointed that the Lakers did not advance, especially after such a close loss in game 6. Oh well. Lets see how my other teams do.

Titusfied 2006-05-08 02:27 PM

Well, the Heat and Nets are now playing each other, so I'm guessing one of them will be losing. ;)

Demosthenes 2006-05-08 03:18 PM

I believe you are correct.

Thanatos 2006-05-08 03:37 PM

Well my Pacers officially blow so it's time for Phoenix to shine.

Titusfied 2006-05-09 07:30 AM

Go Sixers! Wait...

gruesomeBODY 2006-05-09 09:37 AM

I watched the Washington/ Cav's series. Leborn was sweet as usually and Gilbert was nasty too. All i have to say about the Lakers is that Bell scared Kobe. That is all.

How do you figure that?

Titusfied 2006-05-09 02:27 PM

Because Kobe said, "Bell scared me," in a post game press conference.

Kaneda 2006-05-09 02:55 PM

GO SUNS!! >.< Time to sweep the Clips.

Raja's the man.

MightyJoe 2006-05-10 08:20 AM

Too bad Lebron has to play a team that plays defense now. He should average around 20 against the Pistons, but its not really going to matter. The Pistons will prolly meet the Heat in the East and Spurs/Suns in the West.

Thanatos 2006-05-10 09:30 AM

Next round predictions:

Pistons/Nets - I don't give a shit who wins
Suns/Mavs - Mavs win

Demosthenes 2006-05-10 09:37 AM

I don't know . . . San Antonio looks pretty good, even though they lost the last game.

Titusfied 2006-05-10 12:18 PM

Prediction: San Antonio vs. Pistons final.

Pistons win this time.

MightyJoe 2006-05-10 12:30 PM

Yea, I am just conserend (sp) with Duncan, and Manu being at full health. Duncan seemed to be a step behind for a better part of the game, but when it was on the line, he was able to step up. However, I'm not sure if he'll be able to keep it up for all the games.

Thanatos 2006-05-10 01:11 PM

I'm telling you guys, the Mavs will beat the Spurs. They are on a roll right now. They shouldn't have lost the 1st game, either. By two points? Spurs got lucky.

MightyJoe 2006-05-10 10:54 PM

That match-up could be won or lost on a few lucky shots. Its going to be close, which could actually help out the Suns. In the WCF, the Suns will have a slight advantage the first few games, I think.

Thanatos 2006-05-11 07:45 AM

Suns got blown out last night on their home turf. Uh-oh.

MightyJoe 2006-05-11 08:22 AM

Yea, Clippers are putting a little pressure on the Suns. But I still think the Suns will take them in 5 or 6, really doubt a game 7 will be needed.

gruesomeBODY 2006-05-11 09:40 AM

I would love to see Dirk and Terry in the finals. It would be a sweet match against the nets or detriot.

Demosthenes 2006-05-11 11:35 AM

I believe Suns win that series in 6.

Clippers were ALL OVER the boards last night! I went to a local watering hole to watch the game... left about the beginning of the third quarter. Suns will wear em down though, sure the Clippers have some defense and big men, but once the Suns get another couple fast games it's over. It's hard to keep the tempo the way you want it for 4 games straight.

gruesomeBODY 2006-05-11 10:17 PM

I think brand will be the game breaker. As long as he is on the court, they will have problems.

Ya but cmon, the Suns were doing HORRIBLE Sunday and they still came within 1 point in that last couple minutes! Oh I was soo pissed when those back to back 3's went in!

Penguin 2006-05-15 09:12 PM

Go Suns! We deserve to win anyway.

Kaneda 2006-05-17 01:35 PM

OMFG! Who watched the Suns game 5!? OMFG! That my friends is basketball at its GREATEST! I actually turned off the TV when the Suns were down 3, with 3.2 seconds left in the first overtime. I gave up, but then I was like well... it's only 3 points so technically it is possible. I turned it back on right as the time out ended... Once again Raja RULES!

Thanatos 2006-05-17 02:28 PM

I saw that whole game, man.

The Suns had plenty of opportunities to end the game and they let it slip into double OT. The Clippers won't let them do that again... Suns need to dominate the whole game.

Great basketball game, though. I wish the Pacers played the way the Suns do.

Kaneda 2006-05-17 02:40 PM

Ya they kind of blew it in the fourth quarter letting the Clips go on a 11-0 run. Ouch. Gotta love those beautiful buzzer beating clutch shots though.

You mean produce offense like the SUns right? Because the defense is terrible without Amare. They only good one is Bell, who honestly should be the defensive player of the year, just because he is the only reason you can say the Suns have defense.

Thanatos 2006-05-17 08:50 PM

Yes, produce offense. The Pacer's style of play is throw the ball to a post man, everybody else back off past the 3 point line, and watch the post man work.

Fuck that. Where's the teamwork in that? The Suns are the best in the league at distributing the ball and spreading out the floor (much thanks to the two time MVP).

ninjas 2006-05-18 11:52 AM

MAn why the lakers have to lose?! Are the Clippers the next to get eliminated? I think the Suns are playing good basketball these past few weeks. I believe that the Lakers and Clippers weakness against the Suns are the pick and rolls of Steve Nash. Steve NAsh was voted Mvp Again?>This year.

dirty_sox3 2006-05-18 02:28 PM

i can't believe the pistons lost yesterday. i also can't believe that i have't watched basketball since the playoffs started. makes me sad. now the pistons have to win 2 games in a role to else they're gone.

Kaneda 2006-05-18 02:29 PM

Pressure is on. Same for the Spurs and the Clippers.

MightyJoe 2006-05-18 03:07 PM

Piston's shot like 50% in the first two games. Last three its around 35%, they are choking so bad. Hamilton was like 1-9 in the 4th quarter of the game yesterday.

gruesomeBODY 2006-05-18 04:41 PM

I hope Dallas Wins so bad. They lost by one point last night and couldnt close out the spurs. My boy Dirk will pull through in the next game.

MightyJoe 2006-05-18 05:00 PM

Yea, Dirk is playing really well. Then again the Suns and Pistons both seem to be struggling.

Kaneda 2006-05-18 09:37 PM

Meh. I'd just say the Suns and Clippers are pretty evenly matched. I wouldn't say struggling since they are up 3-2, although they might lose the game thats on right now. :(

Thanatos 2006-05-20 10:28 AM

3 GAME 7s. Holy fuck.

dirty_sox3 2006-05-20 01:39 PM

the pistons better win tomorrow

gruesomeBODY 2006-05-20 04:02 PM

Its going to be fun to watch those games
