robert Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Every 0-2 team playing tonight won! That is often likely, but I didn't expect the Cavs to lose and not so badly! Franchise record worse playoff loss!!!! Now back out West.....Go Suns!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damdaman Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Any one of them could make it, but if I had to pick, I'd pick the Suns. I like the Pistons in the east. ...... So I'm predicting a Pistons/Suns final. Boy, my picks are looking pretty awful right now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Damn right! Suns found a way to win, and win big! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Another Wild day in the NBA! Who would have thought the Lakers would sweep the Nuggets and the Hawks would be tied with the Celtics after 4 games?????? Yay Magic! One of my favorite teams.....now let's go Suns!!!!

dontxhide Posted April 29, 2008 Author Share Posted April 29, 2008 Ugh. Dont remind me Robert. Ive been depressed for the past 3 days due to the Celtics. The Hawks are playing amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Well, it's official....Grant Hill, Shaq, Nash, Amare and company are out after losing 4-1 to the Spurs. I don't care if the Spurs came in as the #3 seed, they are still the team to beat and will most likely end up in the finals...again. Rockets won big.....bye bye Dallas. King James on tap tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontxhide Posted May 1, 2008 Author Share Posted May 1, 2008 Tomorrows a big day. Can the Celtics win on the road against the Hawks? After last nights drubbing I sure hope so. If they cant and it goes to seven at Boston, and Boston takes it, whats to say they wont loose on the road against better teams that have achance to beat them at their home!? Jazz tomorrow also. Ugh. I hate the Jazz fever here in Utah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Yeah, big day in the NBA! I still can't believe Boston didn't sweet Atlanta, but it's great for ATL, a team that has sucked for over a decade. They probably have more losses than almost any team over the past 10-15 years. Good for them to be doing well now King James........put away DC!

dontxhide Posted May 2, 2008 Author Share Posted May 2, 2008 Whats weird is that they only won 36 or so regular season games. I think its just the underdogs fighting chance thats helping Atlanta. If they are going to be a good team, they need need to get rid of Bibby and get a better point guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robert Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 The Lakers have NOT lost a game yet in the playoffs and have the MVP of the league on their team They must be stopped! Hornets are crushing Spurs too.....surprise to me. Playoff times = Spurs dominance. Lebron usually takes over as well and his Cavs were tied with Boston with 24 seconds left so it's not a bad loss and they'll bounce back I'm sure. The Magic are also back in action. Who do you want to see? Lakers vs. Celtics? Lakers vs. Cavs (Kobe vs. Lebron) Anyone other than Lakers vs. some team from the East? Others?

dontxhide Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 Kobe vs Lebron would of been insane if I didnt see Lebron going for 8-43 from field goal range the last two games. Go Celts. Lakers are great, but I would love to see the Hornets pull the win and take on the Celts for the West Finals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 I was away from nba.com and tv and radio and all media for 5 days but I could have predicted the games......all teams but Orlando are notched up! I love NBA! Especially playoff time!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontxhide Posted May 14, 2008 Author Share Posted May 14, 2008 Celtics cant buy an away game win. Ugh. Hornets are amazing! Well, are amazing at home. Beat the Spurs please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.O. Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Okay I found this thread a little late but I agree with Robert Lakers vs Celtics. I would have to go with the Celtics to win cuz if you're a blazer you automatically hate the Lakers. I'm pretty sure its a law or something. PS Search online for comedian Cain Lopez (it might be Cane). He does the most helarious Tim Duncan impression. -CO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Man, this sucks! All the teams I like are being eliminated! The Suns are gone, the Cavs have been bounced, the Magic got dealt wit, and the Spurs beat their opponents. I'm going for Boston. I just like Garnett and I like the TEAM attitude they seam to have (of course Detroit has had the TEAM attitude for years), but I like Boston. Yeah, we all hate the Lakers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.O. Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Dont know who i hate more spurs or lakers....um probably lakers, It will be odd rooting for stone-cold tim duncan... Go Celtics. Ya cant hate on Ray Allen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontxhide Posted May 21, 2008 Author Share Posted May 21, 2008 Go Celts! I cant wait til Ray Allen catches fire. Hurry up! KG played amazing yesterday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 It's hard to not like the Celtics. Sure they won the most games this year and some people don't root for favorites....but......They play as a TEAM. They have stars who didn't get to enjoy a whole lot of success on their previous teams. Their main star has played in Boston for 10 years with all the ups and downs and willed them into the conference finals, they have fun, they are in the greatest sports city in America (Redsox, Patriots near by, Bruins, amazing college sports teams, etc)., and I think it is their time.

robert Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Lakers dominated and then got served! I don't know who to cheer for. I don't really like any teams, aside from Boston Can we get a Suns vs. Cavs or Suns vs. Magic championship around here? Maybe a Warriors vs. Hawks or something?

dontxhide Posted May 27, 2008 Author Share Posted May 27, 2008 Ugh. Celtics win a game on the road, and lose a game at home. ANNOYING. Pistons are good, Ill have to admit, but I hope the Celtics when the next two games. That would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontxhide Posted June 2, 2008 Author Share Posted June 2, 2008 Here we go, the match-up it seems the world has been wanting. Celtics vs Lakers Although I gurantee the NBA wanted that match-up, its hard pressed for me to see any favoritism in the playoffs on the Celtics. They fought long and hard to get there. On the other hand, the Celtics were basically handed the position on a platter. Did you see that no-call? The Lakers are a good team, but if you watched the playoffs you can tell which team the refs were looking to get into the Finals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
