NBA Playoffs

Sadly I suspect a sweep ... I almost would prefer it to go 5 so we could win here, and so I could watch game 5 (I work tomorrow)... just like the Sox in 05 when I worked during the first 4 games and had the last 3 off, only for us to win in 4.

But I'd still prefer a sweep We could use the rest. Unless they actually would start the games early, in which case we might be better off (a rested Detroit is more dangerous IMO).

Utah/Houston is gonna go 7 games, I'm pretty sure.

ACK!

Traditionally, the NBA will start a series just as soon as its teams are determined. Should the Bulls sweep, I'd expect the Detroit-Chicago series to start before the rest of the first round ended.

Sloww, how're ya feeling now

[snoopy369]

Oh, and

GO BULLS!!!

So Sloww, you looking forward to watching your sig get changed after tonight?

Well, the refs gave that game to Dallas. Blow the whistle on Daivs, for apparently getting to close to the Mavs player, while on the 3 point shot RIGHT before, Novitski obviously hits the shooters arm and knocks him down with no call.

I guess being whiny *****es does pay off.

ACK!

I have to agree that Davis call at the end was total bs. But, the Warriors had a NINE POINT LEAD with a couple minutes to go. They have no-one to blame but themselves for losing that game.

The question now is, do they respond the way they did in Game 3, or do they collapse from the failure of their comeback?

I think the Warriors win game 6, as they got a huge boost from the home crowd in game 3 ... but we'll see. Davis and Jackson have been pushed to the limit several times in this game, and either or both could easily get frustrated with tight refereeing early and go off. Losing Davis particularly would end the series for the Warriors.

Oh, I agree with you, I just hate obviously poor refereeing.

And then the knocking the rebound out of bounds was just stupid.

ACK!
