yea they wont win the 2nd round because they gotta play the spurs(i think) but if they were in the east they could more then likely beat the cavs, wiz, magic, sixers and maybe the pistons

We'll see and since when did the Spurs become God? Before the playoffs started everyone was talking about how shitty the Spurs were and predicting Phoenix would go to the finals. Now all of a sudden the Spurs are being counted the team to beat? NO is seeded #2 and Spurs #3, They SHOULD beat San Antonio. But I agree, I dont think they will. I was the only person saying how good the Spurs were and about their playoff experience and ability to play East coast 1/2 court defense would take them deep into the playoffs.

If you cant play defense you dont win best of 7 game series.

I loving this Boston- Atlanta game. Atlanta on the verge of tying the series up 2-2 as they are up 6 with just over 1 minute remaining.

If Boston ends up losing to Atlanta in this series it will be one of the biggest upsets in recent memory.

I cant believe the Celtics blew game 4, unbelievable... Mushrooms, I guarantee you Boston will win this series, it's just a matter of how many games it goes.

Even better.

Been super stressed lately.

[NAMushrooms]

The Lakers are looking very good, probably the best team I have seen so far in the playoffs followed by the Spurs. which I think will be the Western Conference Finals.

everybody was talking about the East is will win it all because the pistons and celtics are so great(yea right lol) i don't see that happening folks

Whoa Whoa Whoa settle down young warrior you do realize that we are still in the 1st round right? Neither one of us know who will be playing the NBA finals. It is extremely possible that Boston or Detriot maybe even Cleveland win the NBA championship.

It all depends how things shake out. Im starting to think the Lakers are better without Andrew Bynum

[NAMushrooms]

let me also say this. It says something about the East when you have the 76ers and Hawks both challenging Detriot and Boston. Unlike out West where the teams are showing no heart and no will to play and pretty much handing the higher seeds tickets to the 2nd round.

I think it says a lot about the style of play out East, hard nose defense, 1/2 court offense, and MOTHER FUCKING HEART . because im sorry Denver, Dallas, and Phoenix have showed me very little.

true, but i dont think anybody is rolling over in the west except the nuggets, the hornets and spurs are just playing that much better then the mavs and suns

[NAMushrooms]

maybe ill take phoenix out of that because the Spurs are just that good. But Dallas has shown no effort either

I just think it says something about the coaching, the players, and how they prepare for the game when you come out against 2 of the best teams and you give them everything you have and it rewards you with a 2-2 series at the moment. Lets be real, no one thought the 76ers or Hawks would win 2 games against these powerhouse teams.

The East has just been more entertaining. The teams have been playing harder.
