The Czech Republic Posted April 29, 2005 Report Posted April 29, 2005 I'm baffled as to why anyone outside of MA would want Boston to win this series. The Celtics have no heat whatsoever, if they advance they are a Pistons sweep waiting to happen (ok maybe it goes 5). Pacers/Pistons would at least be a blood feud. Stern has it all taken care of, don't worry.
Guest Vitamin X Posted April 29, 2005 Report Posted April 29, 2005 Are you saying they're going to start piping in crowd chants?
MrRant Posted April 30, 2005 Report Posted April 30, 2005 That was a sick dunk by Amare. Hopefully he doesn't end up like Shawn Kemp....
Guest Vitamin X Posted April 30, 2005 Report Posted April 30, 2005 Man couldn't they have put the Detroit-Philly game and the Seattle-Sacto games on at the same time instead? Sonics-Kings is so incredibly boring.
alfdogg Posted April 30, 2005 Author Report Posted April 30, 2005 Just heard Walker got suspended for game 4 for making contact with that ref. I wish they wouldn't taint playoff series over something as petty as this...if they insist on suspending him I think they should hold it off and suspend him for the first game of the 05-06 season instead, IMO.
Guest Mosaicv2 Posted April 30, 2005 Report Posted April 30, 2005 Wow... Philly went over the Pistons tonite, even though in Cabbageboy's fragile mind their should a Pacers/Piston series... yippie, more boring fights except for baseketball. One a side note, I think a Celtics/Sixers series would more enjoyable, IMO.

alfdogg Posted April 30, 2005 Author Report Posted April 30, 2005 Am I hallucinating? Philly and Detroit BOTH went over 100 points in the same game?
cabbageboy Posted April 30, 2005 Report Posted April 30, 2005 I agree on this Sonics/Kings series being yawn inducing. The Sonics by definition are going nowhere since they get the Spurs next round (hell I'd even take the Nuggets over them). And the Kings? Without Webber or even Doug Christie to make fun of these guys just don't have much of note. The Kings in the playoffs is like Val Venis hanging around 3 years past his push date.

Hell no. If he does something so flipping moronic in the postseason, let him suffer. -=Mike ...Walker could always NOT make contact with a ref. Really not that complicated...
alfdogg Posted April 30, 2005 Author Report Posted April 30, 2005 These officials are pathetic. They're not calling SHIT on the Kings.
MrRant Posted April 30, 2005 Report Posted April 30, 2005 No shit. The Sonics barely touch them and they are at the line but when then run over the Sonics they get the fouls. Fucking bullshit.
cabbageboy Posted April 30, 2005 Report Posted April 30, 2005 I concur, Walker had to be suspended for a game at least. I mean you can't go around shoving the ref and expect NOT to be punished. Not shocking to see the Pistons lose a game. They didn't sweep anyone last year, not even the friggin Bucks.
The Czech Republic Posted April 30, 2005 Report Posted April 30, 2005 Bulls don't reallly feel like winning, I guess. Interesting. Down by 13 at the end of the 3rd. I've seen crazier but it looks like DC willl finally win a playoff game.
The Electrifyer Posted April 30, 2005 Report Posted April 30, 2005 Ugh... now Chandler fouled out. Even with Hughes on the bench, we can't take advantage.
The Czech Republic Posted April 30, 2005 Report Posted April 30, 2005 Guess this just means Bulls win the next two, and can wrap it up at home. PLEASE NOT SEVEN GAMES
Guest Flyboy Posted April 30, 2005 Report Posted April 30, 2005 Vince carter was one rebound away from getting a triple double with Jason kidd last night. When was the last time that has ever happend(a team having two players having a triple double in the same night). It has never been accomplished before.
iggymcfly Posted April 30, 2005 Report Posted April 30, 2005 The Mavs are looking pretty damn good right now. I think my prediction of them taking the series in seven is gong to hold up.
Boon Posted May 1, 2005 Report Posted May 1, 2005 Celtics embarrass the Pacers on their home floor, w/o Antoine Walker. Series tied at 2 and headed back to Boston.
The Czech Republic Posted May 1, 2005 Report Posted May 1, 2005 Maybe best of 5 wasn't such a bad idear.
cabbageboy Posted May 1, 2005 Report Posted May 1, 2005 Oh yeah, these 1st round series going 7 is just excruciating. The NBA playoffs last forever already, adding 2 possible games to the 1st round makes it really dull. Celtics/Sixers huh? Why not just give the Heat a bye to the Finals?
ISportsFan Posted May 1, 2005 Report Posted May 1, 2005 It wouldn't be so bad if the games weren't as many as three days apart. I mean, it's been an entire week and a lot of the series have only played three games. Jason
The Czech Republic Posted May 1, 2005 Report Posted May 1, 2005 Why is it not every other day? Why is not two days in a row? I don't think two days off between games is increasing the quality of play by leaps and bounds, but this shit is taking FOREVER.
iggymcfly Posted May 1, 2005 Report Posted May 1, 2005 It's all about television really. They try to put every single playoff game in some sort of prime spot, and then the ones that they can't fit into a prime network spot, they run on NBATV. The logic in all of it? I honestly have no fucking clue.
cabbageboy Posted May 1, 2005 Report Posted May 1, 2005 Thing is, who gives a shit about half of these games? I mean, in the NCAA tourney for instance no one cares about Carolina squashing an 8 seed jobber, thus they show it to the local audience and the rest of the nation gets to see a better game like UK/Cincy or whatever. That's the brilliance of the NCAAs over the NBA playoffs: If a game sucks it's no biggie since there's a bunch of games they can switch to. If an NBA game sucks, you're basically stuck with it.
Boon Posted May 1, 2005 Report Posted May 1, 2005 Detroit and Philly coming down to the last three seconds. Great game. Gotta hit your free throws, baby.
Youth N Asia Posted May 1, 2005 Report Posted May 1, 2005 This Pistons game is driving me nuts, Pistons by 1 with a few seconds left...
