Good game so far. Man, i dislike K. Malone. While i don't think the undercut was intentional, i think he could have made more of an attempt to get out of the way.

or help him/prevent him from falling on his head...geeeezzz...that was not a smart move by a veteran....didnt that one guy from the bucks..the rookie point guard bust his neck because something like that happend?
 
TJ Ford?

i'm not sure if someone undercut him, but his season was over because of a bad landing. i believe Ford's havign some sort of spinal surgery this summer.

not that the knicks ever really had a chance, but down 0-3 i think one can safely assume this series is in the bag. the knicks just don't have any weapons.

ironically, if Ike hadn't made the trade for Tim Thomas and Nazi, the Knicks might actually have won one of these.

Well it's definitely hard to score with Thomas hurting and no Houston... they didn't really have much of a chance after game 1.
 
wow, what a couple of crappy shots by the rockets. That's going to cost them the game I bet. Going back to LA down 3-1 is not a position they want to be in.

was still a bad trade because it left Houston as the only outside threat. KVH is a scorer, Tim Thomas and Nazi are not although they are decent athletic players.

Well I wasn't really talking about the trade... I was addressing the "no weapons" comment. I think the plan in trading away Van Horn was to make it so that the team would run the court better and rely less on the jump ball... unfortunately, this plan went to hell when Houston got hurt, leaving the team with no real jump shooter for the playoffs. A notoriously weak inside game + mediocre jump shooting = sweep.
 
Spurs, Pacers, and Nets advance to 2nd round, all sweeping their opponents.

Pacers win every game by double digits.

I'm most impressed by the Spurs, as I thought Memphis would give them trouble.

Pistons and Kings play for the crucial 3-1 lead, while the Bucks and Mavs fight to stay alive.

Go Pistons! :beer:
 
ugh, i feel like they're really streaky, especially walker. najera has been playing well on webber this series, but neither of the rooks have taken off yet.... nowitzki is awesome.
 
Game 3 was painful, but I feel like a million after game 4. Time to close the Mavs out.

T'wolves are gonna be really tough.

i love the kings, but they stand no chance against the lakers or the spurs

particulary the spurs
 
I'm not too impressed with minnesota these past two games. I hope they show something better. Whoever wins the lakers/spurs series is the next world champ.
