NBA Conference Finals

Recommended Posts

Since they decided to make the game about them. Honestly, anygame that has been ridiculously close called it has been this same crew.

It's Dick Vendetta's crew. You can expect T's, and shitty calls all night long, all night, all night long.

 

I'd love for the Suns to choke this one up just because I would end up missing Game 7 due to a commitment I can't break.

The Suns have come to a screeching hault in this one. They need to pick up the pace very soon.

 

And Dick Bavetta should never be allowed to ref an NBA game again.

How was that not a flagrant on Barbosa? He threw a flying lariat at Howard's head.

I am guessing you just turned to the game.

I have to give props to the Mavs D. They really are all that. I wasn't sure they improved enough to stop the Suns, but sure enough they did. Nash and Marion have done relatively nothing in this game.

 

American Airlines series anyone?

Yep. I was watching the Mets salvage a game in a horribly played doubleheader. I got here just in time to watch Phoenix implode. Good times. Good times.

Okay. Because two plays earlier Dirk did the same to Diaw...except somehow it wasn't a shooting foul.

Both should have been flagrant fouls if they tried to land a heavy blow on the opponent's skull instead of making a play for the ball. In a Dickie V. game, I'm surprised neither got tossed from the game.

Dallas really did a tremendous job on the defensive end in the second half there. Obviously, having Terry play more than three minutes turned around the offense, but I think it's really the team defensive effort that got them by Phoenix.

 

Next stop, the Finals!

Congrats to the Mavs. They were the best team all year really.

 

And the Suns are probably the toughest team in the NBA IMO. I can't think of a team who's made it this far without their best player (or best player 1-A), and only pretty much played like 6-7 players a night in the playoffs. Good year, and I'll be rooting for them to make it next year with Amare.

One thing I just remembered. In the '02 Finals, a lot of people (Kenyon Martin, in particular) pointed the finger at KVH for his performance. Now he could win a ring before anyone on that team. How does that John Lennon song go, again?
