This could have been such a good night. Well, Portland has to win tonight. Houston will not be a good match-up on the road.
That NO loss fucking blew. I dont know how they fucked that up. THAT is supposed to be an up and coming team??? Please........
one free throw is the first and second round difference between facing NO/Denver and Houston/Lakers. Are you kidding me?
in the end, I think we're better off playing Houston. They have no history of winning in the playoffs. Both the Hornets and Spurs are battle tested playoff teams.
Not just James Posey.....What was Byron Scottt thinking? 7 seconds left up by 3...FOUL...instead they let Finley get it and take a 3 with 2 seconds left to tie it...That was bad coaching....
I hate when coaches don't foul in that situation. Nate should have done it a against the Clipps earlier in the season and we could have been the #2 seed.
Hornets battle tested? I can only think of one team in the west with less playoff experience then them.
It's funny people always say this after a loss but coaches never EVER do it. Maybe there's this thing called "continuation" after a foul. Like get fouled, throw the ball in the air gives you 3 free throws? Maybe you don't extend the game when your ahead?
last year they actually made it out of the first round. something yao, battier(?), scola, brooks, and landry havent done.
Guys were dribbling around and could have easily been fouled. Maybe they could make a miracle shot while being fouled, but chances are the Hornets would walk away with the W.
