NBA Playoffs 2008 - Round 1

Recommended Posts

Too bad Larry Brown took the Charlotte job, he would have been a good coach for Dallas

That would have been funny to watch... I think he'd have been there one week before Jason Kidd tried a player revolt to get him canned.

It funny to keep hearing the talking heads harp on about the "superior" San Antonio defense that basically consist of them fouling Shaq off the ball and getting another 6-7 possessions per game. Amazing defense there fellas.

Shaq sucks. The fact that he can't hit a free throw basically means every time he's fouled it's a turnover. In addition his clumsy hands have turned the ball over multiple times. He's basically worth 8-10 extra possessions for the other team.

To be fair, Ripper does have a point. The Spurs have historically beat the Suns with great offensive play, not defensive play. Neither team has been able to stop the other's big guns, although Nash has relatively been a non-factor in this series.

The officiating has been putrid in the second half. Why exactly is that not a flagrant on Bell?

 

Because Parker didn't fly into the basket support and flail his arms in Nashian fashion.

Also, no punishments will be given out for the Celtics/Hawks stuff. I guess after the backlash from the Phoenix suspensions last year, they're being real loose on this stuff.

And can I count the reasons that is total bullshit.

 

I mean, are we going to get David Stern on radio shows being a big dick about how its a rule in black and white not open to interpretation.

 

I mean, my team would have gotten the worse end of it, but that is fucking ridiculous.

Good. Last year was bullshit and cost the Suns the series.

I think it should just kinda be accepted that Suns-Spurs IS soccer when it comes to officiating and acting. It would be more fun to watch if the falls didn't look so incredibly lame every damn time. All we need is Nash acting like he's been shot in the back when he gets a gentle nudge from one of the Spurs and it's all set.

If all ten guys fell to the floor right now at the same time, I wouldn't be suprised. Seriously, its OBVIOUS flopping. Why are you calling that bullshit?

It's awesome to watch two teams as playoff savvy as the Suns and Spurs just try to give this game away, but the other team insisting that they have it instead.

This sure doesn't feel like a series where the Suns could be about to lose 4-1. This is probably the most into a game not involving the Pacers I've been this year.

Thank you Spurs, now go out and lose to the Hornets so we can get some fresh matchups in the later stages of the playoffs.

WTF Nash?

That was a bad pass. Right into bowens hand honestly.

 

Good game, good series. Its sad that they lost because Shaq couldn't hit freethrows, but oh well. If someone doesn't force that fucker to shoot underhand this offseason, I have to question the balls of everyone on the team.
