Well there was a game 7 alright but it was one-way traffic ATL got a serious beat down and it was down to their poor start like i predicted

@j-girl
It was nice seeing yall thrashing the Spurs you guys should keep it up and whatever you do please make sure you win Game 2 or else undecided.LAL are on fire and they are doing it so easily even without Bynum those guys are looking too good Radmanovic,Odom and the head honcho Kobe.The most interesting series though will be the BOS-CAVS matchup i wouldnt even dare make any predictions on that one

Lakers are doing me proud.
Who would have thought the Hawks would give Celtics a tough time. Am beginning to have second thoughts about the celtics getting to the final.

About Dallas, I dont blame Avery as much as I blame Cuban, The dude is too involved in the managerial aspect, all he needs to do is provide the money for trades, sit down and shut the Bleep up. Sometimes the dude makes me sick.

@Lasiefaire
You took the words out of my mouth i think its unfair to totally blame Avery for whats been happening.That Mark Cuban dude is really overdoing it i mean he practically sits on the team sbench sometimes i wonder why Avery did not include him in the team roster sef maybe he should apply for the vacant coaching position if he loves the team so much

you know I was at one point last week too, then I remembered the time the ended houston's 22-game streak and coming back from 22 down to beat the champs, both on the road. . . atl was just a speed bump, a very annoying speed bump angry but I am optimistic, they've proven they can win tough games on the road cheesy I think the experience will strengthen the team and teach them never to underestimate any opponent.

LOL. . . Mark Cuban is annoying sometimes though. But I think some of the clamour is justifiable. The Mavs have excelled during the Reg season past couple yrs, but not the playoffs with the exception of the yr when they should have beaten Miami and won it all. Avery has to take a good chunk of the blame . . . not all of it, but a healthy portion of it. Left to me, I blame the players - they have no fire in their bellies.

I hope oh, I really want the celtics to beat Cavs. Lebron is becoming cocky, totally blew the wizard series way out of proportion.
Re: Nba Starts For Heat Haters Only by jgirl3: 8:37pm On May 05, 2008
I want the Cavs out by hook or by crook! I don't like them anymore - they are the only team that have no team work in them. Everything - LeBron has to do. I still love him sha. And as A-40 said, I won't even try to predict anything

Tonight is the night!!!!! I hope we win again.
Lakers are just gonna sweep everyone till they get to the winner of the Spurs/Hornets. I know those teams will slow them down.

I completely agree! angry angry angry I don't know what his business is. He might be the owner but I doubt he knows that much about managing a team.
Re: Nba Starts For Heat Haters Only by LASIEFAIRE(m): 8:43pm On May 05, 2008
I remember when Lakers offered Kobe to the Mavericks for Dirk, they must be regretting they didnt take the deal. I like dirk but the german just dont know when to post BIG numbers. Am glad the Heat won, cuz am a big fan of D-Wade, but that series and the Cup had Mavericks smelling on it, but poor Dirk just couldnt post the numbers to catch in.

i doubt the Hornets or Spur will beat Lakers, I will prefer we play the hornet, cause deep down the spur are totally unpredictable. Anyway sha the title is for Laker this year. gba be

I buy that a little bit but not that much. Avery has to take most of the blame. There's a reason why he's called the "Little General". He has too much "X" and "O" and I think he is learning. Yes Cuban has his fault but he doesn't play on the court with the players and neither is he the one telling the players what to do. Take for example, Jerry Jones of the Cowboys. He's just as involved in the Cowboys as Cuban is to the Mavericks. So tell me after 5 championships that the Cowboys are not successful. I just thing it's a combination of faults but mainly Avery's. Too many "X" and "O" and he was trying to make the Mavericks like the Spurs instead of finding an identity that works with the Mavericks. If you notice, the Spurs have bunch of old players just like the Mavericks do now. The Mavericks used to be young and athletic. One thing Avery forgot is the fact that Mavs don't have a PF/C like Duncan that could pound you on the post neither does the Mavs have a defensive specialist like Bowen. How can you all of a sudden dump a system and character that took you to the NBA finals? Now we see the new age of basketball where combination of athletism and defense wins. Just look at New Orleans, they are like Phoenix Suns + defense. The way it looks now, the Spurs would have to use artificial oxygen to keep up with the Hornet's athletism. Players get tired of playing their hearts out on a system that they think would not work. What more kind of fire do you want from them? They double team CP3 and guess what, CP3 finds a way of solving that problem. But because of the "over tacticalness", the players cannot learn to adapt and overcome to actually think for themselves. Think of how many times Devin Harris, JD or JT looks at Avery Johnson during plays just because he wants to call the play. I like Avery but he still in a learning process and I believe years from now he'll be shining in whatever coaching job he has but I believe he still has some learning to do. Dirk is different from Duncan and Howard is different from Bowen. Use what you have to your best ability and get the most out of your players. Plain and simple!

helo 2 evrybody, back again!!!!!!

the lakers broom is weighing heavy in the air, SWEEP SWEEP SWEEP SWEEP, SWEEP it all

how about the hornets am i seeing double, u hold onto CP3, wests blows up, u then hold onto west, CP3 blows up, thats a team for you, no single key to unlock them, just pray they see out the series, dont blame spurs, they gotta hold on to something

one of my likeable teams, magic are really tryin to against those eastern robots but i'll really like to see them play detroit with billups on the floor, i want to watch the best of them both

as for cavs and celts, never seen defence like this in my life, just like chelsea vs an italian defensive team, the only difference is that defensively minded basketball games are more interesting to watch, thats where great players make or break, goo luck to all but i sign out wit,

SWEEP SWEEP SWEEP SWEEP SWEEP SWEEP, everything

@lai-lai
Not so fast the Jazz gave yall a speed bump yesterday.Derek Fisher's first quarter foul troubles really did kill yall and backup point Jordan Farmar played more like a farmer Odom was also disappointing he should do less ball handling and stay in the paint but to be fair to the Jazz they really outhustled yall Boozer was everywhere and Okur was practically holding a 3 pt shooting clinic

The Magic are doing good but they have to win today or else that series would end in 5.That Cavs and Celts defence is something else its almost like watching Milan and Juve play i mean the 2003 UCL final but that Cavs team is shyte for real but Lebron's goal field ratio was record breaking and i dont mean it in a nice way

@layifioren
Well lets welcome Rick Carlisle the new coach of the Mavs hopefully he can do something and save us from becoming the Denver Nuggets.As for Avery Johnson i think Cuban's overbearing influence did hurt and our foot dragging when it came to trades really didnt work well but less face it Avery is probably the best in Mavs history he won us our only conference title So who do we go for this summer?Antawn Jamison wouldnt be a bad idea we can give them Howard cos frankly that guy has been a big disappointment these past few seasons.We also need to let go of those old hags Devean George,Ericka Dampier et al

@j-girl
I am rooting for you guys all the way.Dont worry game 3 was just a temporary setback i am sure you where not thinking you would sweep the Spurs.Tell CP3 to give the ball to Peja more often and try to shake off Tony Parker even though it wont be easy since they are both quick i do hope you guys take the game tomorrow
Re: Nba Starts For Heat Haters Only by A40(m): 8:19pm On May 10, 2008

We do need a good centre and a good point guard oops i mean a great point guard.Jason Kidd is a little past it
Re: Nba Starts For Heat Haters Only by lailai2(m): 11:58pm On May 10, 2008
apart from the turnovers, odom really tried, he was almost 100% from the field, but vujacic and farmar really messed up, i think 0% from the field, but jazz have the best home record so u can argue a sweep was almost impossible, lakers have to be very careful against those guys and try to still the next one

Finally!!!! THANK God! cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy
I definitely knew we would not sweep the Spurs. I mean that would have been nice but i know how the spurs can be.
The game. . . . . . I said it on the other thread, if we won game 3, we would be in trouble because the Spurs will not let go again. However, if we win game 4 like we did against the Mavs, we will maintain that level to bring it back home. Like lai said, one thing i love about the Hornets is that there is not one person that carries the team all by himself. If CP3 is too guarded, West become effective. When West is tied down, Chandler steps up. When Chandler is hindered, Peja becomes free, and when Peja becomes too guarded, CP3 steps up.

Cavs and Celtics - I give up! The game was disgraceful yesterday. It was simply pathetic. Most of the night, Cavs led by 15 pts or more. What do you call that? angry angry angry They better find a remedy to that next game.

Well it seems Magic is out now and I feel so bad for them because they really tried.

Lakers-Jazz, Hahahahaha, that's all i choose to say. I was actually thinking the lakers would have another sweep but it seems williams got a bit mad and jazz really jazzed the Lakers into stupor last time grin grin If they tie the series, that would be fun to watch the lakers actually struggle for the first time in the playoffs.

Congrats on the league title!.I want you guys to win of course CP3 is the man and anything to to end the Spurs tyranny is fine with me but you guys have to win tonight to kill this series you dont want these Spurs to bounce back into this series.Trust me

As for the Detroit-Magic series the clock malfunction really didnt help them they where unlucky in game 2 and game 4 was even worse i dont see them coming back now it seems the Pistons are on their way to their sixth straight conference final

I am not even taking these Celts serious till they win a road game this is becoming very embarassing they where already out of it from the first quarter

UTAH-LAL.Gasol has to step up today so does Odom and if not then Kobe has to take matters to his own hands i hope they win today
Re: Nba Starts For Heat Haters Only by A40(m): 7:17pm On May 11, 2008
@lai-lai
You guys definitely need to do some smashing and grabbing Derek Fisher has to play solid D on Deron Williams you also need to guard that perimeter cos Okur is a 3 pt bomb threat whenever Utah are at home una go also need to keep Boozer quiet thats for sure
Re: Nba Starts For Heat Haters Only by lailai2(m): 10:14pm On May 11, 2008
they need to focus more on their defence, i hope phil jackson notices it
Re: Nba Starts For Heat Haters Only by A40(m): 7:53pm On May 13, 2008
Sure they have but you do know that Utah is a very difficult place to cop a win dont you?

Thank you! cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy New Orleans won Game 5 and i'm ecstatic. If we can win Game 6 -------------- the Sky is the limit
Magic is out.
Celts are on crack and Cavs are making me angry.
Jazz is not even kidding around. They are making the Lakers pay!

This is an amazing second round.
Re: Nba Starts For Heat Haters Only by lailai2(m): 5:42am On May 14, 2008
that west is one of the latest bests(tryin to rhyme), even if hornets dont win the championship, they have players of the future, how about west droppin 38 against spurs, spurs??the same spurs allowed a player to drop 38, the player must be good, that was a wash 101-79, they not even always close in your new orleans

as for lakers, those guys were always gonna be tough and even with kobe fully fit, they were still gonna be a big problem.hope he's fit for game 5 cos these deron williams and co are getting really dangerous, cant afford to drop any home game

pitied the magics, there's always next year
Re: Nba Starts For Heat Haters Only by MyTempID: 6:30am On May 14, 2008
I don 't think the jazz are a threat to the lake show; moderately, maybe. they play very well at home, but when they hit the road, they turn into a slightly better version of the boston celtics. I look for the lakers to do to the jazz what the hornets did to the spurs today. the lakers will win at home. if Kb24 is able to play his way through the back-pain the lakers will prevail. GL1!

38 pts was a playoff career high for West. He was so good this night. 101 - 79 was not a joke but the thing is that Spurs lose dramatically to New Orleans and New Orleans lose dramatically to Spurs. It was only game 3 that was kinda close.

Lakers without Kobe is going to get levelled by Boozer and Williams. Kobe doesn't just add points to the game, he motivates the other players. They need him for support too.

Did you watch the same game I watched? Boozer and Williams almost caused a problem for them. I didn't even think that Jazz would defeat Lakers at home twice. They step up when they really need to and if Kobe ain't better by tomorrow, there's gonna be a bigger surprise in store for us.

You guys where amazing last night i just dont see you guys losing it now.22 pts against those defending chumps was something special i hope the Suns are learning a thing or two.Yall just need to pick game 6 at San Antonio so as to avoid any game 7 drama but i still feel you would still whoop their butts if they came back to NO.

Too bad for the Magic they have evry right to feel hard done by but Superman was not just on the duty i still feel he has a long way to go to meet up with that nickname

I am amazed at how you guys are belittling this Jazz team ooh with a guard like Deron Williams and shooters like Korver and Okur defenders like Kirilenko and dont forget they where in last years conference finals so they are no pushovers.I see the Lakers picking it in 7 though

As for the Cavs and Celts the Celts have showed no championship credibility no team has gone 0-5 on the road and won the title so i want the Cavs to pick game 5 and round it up at the Quicken Loans arena

D'Antoni has joined the Knicks i mean why on God's green earth would anyone coach such a shitty team well i guess for the money 6mil a year is big bucks.I think The Suns should go for Avery Johnson pronto at least he would teach them how to play some D in that b**ch

@A -40, statements like that make me thank my stars that you don't show bad sportsmanship cheesy. It is so cool to have won by 22 points yesterday especially with West being very effective. Game 6 better be as good for the Hornets. If we can shut this down in 6 games, i will be ecstatic.
You are right - Superman has a long way to go. They need to learn how to be a team.Superman cannot do it all.
Celts do not deserve to win. Their behavior in the regular season saved them from being disgraced by ATL in the first round. Now they are constantly being hassled by LeBron and his boys. It's just pathetic for a number 1 team in any conference to get by just on home court advantage.
Lakers and Jazz - I'm watching the game now. Lakers should be scared of Jazz. Williams, Boozer and boys are just disgracing Lakers. I can't wait till the end of the game.
I hope D'Antoni has some form of changing the Knicks. They need more than a good coach - they need more awesome players that can defend.

While I wouldn't have used the word "pathetic" but I do admit it bad for them so far not to have won on the road. But girl this is part of why you work so hard during the regular season to get home court advantage! This is their first playoffs together and now their insecurities and weaknesses are showing, but if they can get over them by simply holding serve at home then good, that's why they worked for home court anyways. I think this road thing is 90% mental. . .they had the best road record for crying out loud, it baffles me.

Lakers and Jazz - I'm watching the game now. Lakers should be scared of Jazz. Williams, Boozer and boys are just disgracing Lakers. I can't wait till the end of the game.
I think it is going to 7-games. . .and you never know what will happen in game 7.

I hope D'Antoni has some form of changing the Knicks. They need more than a good coach - they need more awesome players that can defend.
Please the knicks are a lost cause. . .Antoni was the wrong choice for this team in so many ways. We all know he followed the smell of the money lipsrsealed which was more than what Chi-town was willing to put on the table (but still I can't fault him for that though) He's too cool and takes a quiet, diminished approach- not good for that rogue team called the knicks. Plus he will get eaten up by the NY media. The only good thing is that expectations are so low right now so even if he improves them a little next season it'll be a successful one.

My observation from games 1 and 2 led me to that statement.  The jazz were either too slow, not ready, bothered by the lakers' crowd, or just not as effective down the stretch.  In the first two games I thought the lakers would sweep the jazz, but i thought wrong.  The games have been very exciting, close, and entirely unpredictable.  Although, last night, it never crossed my mind that there was a possibility of the jazz winning because the lakers kept their composure.  If I had told you yesterday that the lakers would beat the jazz and kobe wouldn't shoot in the 4th quarter, I'm sure you would have asked if I was on crack.

If Kobe's back holds up (or he gets hot), then you never know what will happen in game 6, much less game 7.

Celts do not deserve to win. Their behavior in the regular season saved them from being disgraced by ATL in the first round. Now they are constantly being hassled by LeBron and his boys. It's just pathetic for a number 1 team in any conference to get by just on home court advantage.
Celts do deserve the win.  Everything is chieftained by our thoughts.  It's funny how we forget that these are nba teams.  They are all extremely good.  The records might say otherwise, but on any given night, in any given city, the dice may roll in one direction as opposed to the more-logical other. You play the games to ensure the outcome.  Once we get into that natural mode of mind-simulated outcomes where we expect one team to win because they have x-wins and y-losses, it's hard to snap out of it. 
You could also argue that it is pathetic for the media-enshrined king James to have disappeared for the first two games in the series.  Definitely, the celtics do need to win on the road somewhere down the line in the playoffs (probably against the pistions), if they want to realize their hopes of winning the championship; however, there's always the possibility that they could swim throught the playoffs by winning only at home and still win the NBA championship.

That is why i am so surprised at their current results. Not even one playoff game on the Road? I don't like it. But then again, that's what the homecourt is for. They cannot play like this against Pistons, they will be shut down because Pistons are good on the road. At least good enough to be the only team in the second round not to have a game 6.

I thought Jazz was going to win - 3 times, they tied. I liked their team work but damn - they have gotta be kidding me with the way they end games. They ended that game very weak allowing Lakers to come back. If they had stayed strong, it would have been much better and they might have been able to pull off an OT.
Re: Nba Starts For Heat Haters Only by A40(m): 2:20pm On May 16, 2008
@j-girl
Why cant anybody win on the road?You guys lost again yesterday and game 7 would be war it is very important you get off to a good start cos the Spurs wouldnt fall down and die thats for sure.On a lighter note i couldnt help but notice that hornets fan in game 5 that had Eva Longoria in a hornets cheerleading uniform when Tony Parker was at the free throw line and the funniest part was he missed both shots,talk about distraction

On the Lakers-Jazz series i think the ref helped them with a few calls the Lakers where very lucky to pick that game.

Cleveland would win today and that series would probably end in game 7.The Celts do have to pick a road game somewhere along the line because i dont see them beating Detroit by relying on their homecourt advantage in the East

On the D'Antoni issue i think if it where down to a team with better potential the Bulls where a far better option you dont need haitian voodoo to figure that one out.He can be assured that everybody would be in his face at NY where veryone and their grandma has something to say about the Knicks

Why can't anybody win on the road?You guys lost again yesterday and game 7 would be war it is very important you get off to a good start because the Spurs wouldnt fall down and die thats for sure.On a lighter note i couldnt help but notice that hornets fan in game 5 that had Eva Longoria in a hornets cheerleading uniform when Tony Parker was at the free throw line and the funniest part was he missed both shots,talk about distraction

On the Lakers-Jazz series i think the ref helped them with a few calls the Lakers where very lucky to pick that game.

Cleveland would win today and that series would probably end in game 7.The Celts do have to pick a road game somewhere along the line because i don't see them beating Detroit by relying on their homecourt advantage in the East

On the D'Antoni issue i think if it where down to a team with better potential the Bulls where a far better option you don't need haitian voodoo to figure that one out.He can be assured that everybody would be in his face at NY where veryone and their grandma has something to say about the Knicks
If I tell you I'm happy about the road thingy, I would be lying. At least we won a road game in the first round unlike some people we know! LOL. Lol about the Eva Longoria thing - that's the price you pay for having a celeb wife. cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy The Hornets know what they have to do in game 7. If they play well enough, it would result into them moving to the West conference finals.
Lakers-Jazz, they better watch their backs. They will be destroyed if they don't play their best today.
Cleveland is winning, of course - no doubt. Celts should be used to having a game 7 now. smiley
I really can't wait to see D'Antoni in action with the Knicks. I'm sure i'll be laughing my head off.

You're highly underestimating the power women have over men that are in love with them. She will still dazzle him for a long time to come as long as she doesn't grow extremely obese and she stays loving towards him. He's bound to lose game 7 at another sight of Eva in a hornets cheerleading uniform cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy Women are that powerful, believe it or not!

Leave it to the lakers to complete the task the hornets couldn't finish.
