NBA Playoff Thread

Did anyone start this yet? I can't find it.

Despite Joakim Noah's best effort, the Cavs whooped on the Bulls today. Derrick Rose looked great, though.
Looks like the Hawks are mushroom-stamping the Bucks so far. It's a shame Bogut is out.

 

Some really bad first-round series in the East. I can't imagine any of the lower seeds losing. I guess Miami could give Boston some trouble, just because of D-Wade. The West quarters are going to be a bloodbath.

 

Kinda funny. That's pretty much wfw what I wrote about the NHL playoffs. I've been juuuuuust a little wrong about that one.

 

Hell, the first round of the West playoffs should be great. Unfortunately, Roy is out for Portland. Would love for the Thunder to somehow take one from the Lakers in the first two. Can you imagine how insane the OKC crowd will be? Went to a game there a few weeks ago and the crowd was great.

 

True, but hockey's so much more of a fluky game than basketball. Easier to hang around, hang around and steal than it is in the NBA.

 

Tirico: "In Boston, you don't need to give these fans towels to get them excited about a playoff game." Thanks, Mike. Very insightful, because most fans go to playoff games to get free towels.

 

Hashweed Wallace enters game with 3:00 to go in first. Commits two fouls in two minutes, the second one should have been flagrant/intentional (but as usual, fearing a full-blown Sheed blowup, they tag him with a common foul).

But at least Fucknuts hasn't scored in the wrong basket yet.

 

It amazes me how lifeless Boston has looked for most of this game. And too many teams are focusing on LeBron this summer. Wade is a hell of a Plan B.

 

My God KG is a bitch.

 

I caught the tail end of that, cwilson.

Luckily this didn't turn into a full-scale Detroit melee.

Boston will probably get out of here with a win, but KG didn't endear himself with that act.

 

Missed it, what happened?

 

Quentin Richardson was basically looking down to see if Pierce was ok after they collided, and KG nudged him out of the way, and KG got pushed for being a dick and just started swinging elbows because he was by the Heat bench and connected on a couple. He got ejected, thankfully.
