<div class="quote_poster">Quoting "Old Hoss":</div><div class="quote_post">Portland will.............. ....nevermind, Portland hasn't won a playoff game since Bill Russell had no gray in his beard. 8)</div> well the blazers won last night. Hopefully this is the start of a blazer winning streak that will take them to the title.(prob not though) On all the teams that are behind i think the jazz have the best shot....j/k
are you NUTS do YOU understand that Dirk will put up another 40pt perfromance on Wednesday... he just too much for Portland to handle.. when they double him up they just gonna kick it out to Nash... you must didnt know the Nash/Nowitzki pick and roll is the most feard one in the NBA!!!!
The Pacers are done...i wouldn't be surprised to see Pierce and Walker close it out in the next game...they'll probably come out to play just to end the series and i think Indy is rather demoralized right now...that series goes 1-2 more games max The Pistons are done...this series will end in the next game...T-Mac will dominate the next game and giri and gooden playin support...the Pistons have no answer for them...so 4-1 is my guess Lakers Wolves is gonna go to Seven (much to my surprise)...without Fox the wolves will prolly take another game but my guess is Lakers win it 4-3 Hudson and KG are playing out of their minds... Blazers are done in teh next game...Dallas is too much for them... I still think the Suns will pull off the upset against the spurs...the spurs havent exactly brought their a-game i think the bucks are also gonna pull off theupset against NJ
wow. for once u and i are in agreement brain. Much as i dislike it the lakers are going to beat the wolves and im not even sure the wolves can pull out one more game. honestly though, i think the spurs will recover to beat the suns. T dunc and co. have been just too good the last 4 months to throw it all away. and while im thinking upset in the milwaukee and NJ series too, i wonder if thats just wishful thinking and nothing more.
sad thing with the hornets though. i really thought they had a chance to go all the way to the finals but they got hurt and iverson got hot
yeah i thought the Hornets would get far, but when your best 2 players get injured your season goes down the tank. what is surprising is how well the celtics are playing on defense. also greg ostertag is playing huge for some reason.
i bet the spurs will choke again... haha.. I dont get it no Marubury NO Amare and you was up by like 11 during the 4th *smh* CHOKE!

stil think spurs will win the series and maybe the finals but suns are proving that every single team in the western playoffs is better than any team in the east
the celtics interior defense usually isn't as dominating. their perimeter defense is challenging everything and they are stepping up to take charges and everyone is crashing the boards. all this and the celtics are a smaller team than last season. imagine how the celtics would be if they could use Baker's contract to sign a legitimate star. i'm surprised the celtics are playing great on defense because the pacers have much more talent and athleticism. jo is playing great, but other than him no one else has done anything on the inside.
yea. the pacers are clearly the more talented team. ii mean i was expecting them to go the finals but they just dont have the composure the celtics have or the coaching. i think Obrien and Harter are really underrrated coaches because the celtics are small and everything u might say about them but since Obrien and Harter have been at the helm theyve done nothing but win when it counts. and yes the baker contract is an absolute tragedy. chris wallace neeeds to be crushed by giant mutant lobsters before te celtics can actually win anything. it seems tho the way its oging that the vin baker issue will somehow be resolved because its obvious he doesnt even want to b e there and no one wants him there
i dont think that the pacers can win 2 in a row especially with isiah coaching them...well they might win if timmy hardaway shows up in the clutch again
celtics will win onlly if walker and pierce have big nights. if artest continues to dominate pierce than they can certainly pull off the comeback. how good of a road team were the pacers this year?
They were a pretty poor road team..like 9 games under 500...but in the playoffs those records go out the window.
mmm...not always. teams that have troubnle on the road may still have trouble in the playoffs. certainly the pacers didnt show a lot of guts int ehtwo games in boston and hopefully game 6 will be the same way
If pacers actually play for two halfs they can pull off the win..but i don't think they have won at all in boston this season? not even during the season...?
