NBA Playoffs

cavs rolled the the wizards tonight. maybe game 3 arenas will shut the hell up and play, but i highly doubt it, looks like the cavs got this series.

soxmuscle · 04-22-2008, 12:32 AM

Not so fast, IMO.

The Wiz are a solid team despite how they've played thus far in this series.

I wouldn't put it past them to win both games in Washington.

soxmuscle · 04-22-2008, 12:33 AM

Houston's done, no surprise there.

hmm, it could happen, but the cavs got all the momentum and less pressure than arenas and the wizards to back up their shit talk. i still have cavs pulling 4-1.

That was fun seeing Washington get absolutely steamrolled last night. Hopefully they'll get beat even worse the next two games.

And how about Stevenson blowing on his hand after hitting a three....WHILE HIS TEAM IS GETTING BLOWN OUT.

I am absolutely shocked with the Atlanta Hawks right now. I thought for sure that the Celtics would blow them out in four straight games. I don't think anyone outside of Atlanta predicted the series would last more than 5 games. I am a little worried now because Atlanta's athleticism is surely wiping the floor with the veteran players on the Celtics.

Whoever wins game five will win the series. The Celtics need to step up their defense. This series reminds me of the Warriors-Mavs series last year. Unbelievable.

Joe Johnson is a beast.

What does that make Dwight Howard? As soon as he can hit that medium range jumper, he will be fairly close to upstoppable.

**IainDaniel** · 04-29-2008, 09:33 AM

Don't even talk to me about Dwight Howard. He just destroyed the Raptors by himself. He is a god.

Triple Threat · 04-29-2008, 10:09 AM

You need to get Chris Bosh on some kind of strength training program. He's got the talent, but seems to get pushed around much too often. I don't know how many times I saw him on the floor.

soxmuscle · 04-29-2008, 12:35 PM

Josh Smith beat the Celts by himself in game three, Joe Johnson does the same in game four.

How about that stupid fucking Euro getting into Garnett's face? Hardly a turning point that TNT made it out to be, but if Garnett is going to lose his cool because of some piece of shit flopper, the Celtics aren't going deep into these playoffs.

He's not so stupid. If he gets Garnett to retaliate, the two of them get tossed. Advantage: Atlanta.

I completely agree, it was stupid for the Celts to stoop down to the lowly Hawks level.

I more so just hate the European brand of basketball.

When does the NBA follow the NHL's lead by adopting a flop rule?

Somebody needs to get him some food. He is way too slim to be a post player. But then again, his frame is similar to KG who did fine with it his entire career.

Their frame might be similar, but you can't teach toughness IMO. Bosh got game, but his is a pure softie with no post up game. He takes to many fadeaways for a team thats lacking inside scoring.

soxmuscle · 05-01-2008, 06:49 AM

I remember reading an article about how "hard" it was for Chris Bosh to put on weight, I wish I could find it...

Well they probably are influenced by floppy Euro soccer players.

I never thought about that. That's exactly it.

It's also exactly why soccer is a gay sport.

Triple Threat · 05-03-2008, 08:28 AM

The biggest surprise of the first round has got to be the Boston-Atlanta series. The Celtics look like a competely different team when on the road. Luckily for them, they've got home-court advantage throughout.

soxmuscle · 05-04-2008, 01:04 AM

Another concerning thing is how Garnett and Pierce have both lost their composure numerous times throughout this series (I thought they were smarter) and how Ray hasn't made a shot down the stretch.

I hope tomorrow isn't interesting...

shiznit2169 · 05-04-2008, 09:24 AM

For the first time this season, i am worried about the Celtics.

Goodfella9783 · 05-04-2008, 10:04 AM

I think you have to blame a lot if it on Doc. Seriously, where the fuck is Eddie House? How about Tony Allen? They succeeded using Eddie as the number 2 PG the whole season and now all of the sudden he's MIA unless there 1.2 seconds in a quarter. Sam Cassell does not match up well with the speedy ATL guards. His age is definately showing on defense. Eddie better play a lot more today. He's a huge spark off the bench. And we better see Tony Allen guarding Joe Johnson off-and-on

shiznit2169 · 05-04-2008, 10:53 AM

Ya, i have noticed that throughout this series. Doc is playing the starters a little too much (which is why they burnout in the 4th quarter) and i have yet to see Eddie House and Tony Allen get a lot of playing time. This shows that Doc has no confidence in them.

Triple Threat · 05-04-2008, 10:57 AM

They were good enough to help the Celtics to 66 wins. You've got to go with what got you there in the first place.

HialeahChico305 · 05-04-2008, 12:13 PM

Hope celtics get knocked off.

natural^ · 05-04-2008, 01:17 PM

did anyone see stephen a. smith go on a huge rant on espn about how the celtics are a disgrace and bla bla. the guy on the left had to continuously put his hand on smith's shoulder and tell him to calm down and let it go. funny shit, speaking of shit, smith can go to hell.
