Ok someone has to do, lets talk B-ball. I love this time of year, multiple playoff games on every night... I'm happier then a Eddie Money running a travel agency.

So much to talk about. A lot of blowouts in the early going but I'm watching one hell of a game right now. Houston which I thought had no chance is giving OKC a run for their money in game 2.
 
Harden is on a personal vendetta but Durrant and Westbrook are unstoppable!
 
houston will be lucky to lose 4-2 in the series okc is just too good

and harden has become a volume scorer almost like melo can't say it's a bad thing but I don't like it

my favorite series right now is the clips vs memphis as a chris paul fan game 2 was amazing excited for game 3 tomorrow night
 
The Lakers have no chance. I will be really surprised if they can win a game. I hope Kobe doesn't go out like that though, he is the man. I went to High-school down the way from him and graduated the same year. I can remember one home game he played vs us, took the opening tip and did a 360 jam, it was sick. You couldn't even get a seat, and we had a big gym for a high-school.

I guess the 2 best series in the opening rounds is Golden State vs Denver and Chicago vs Brooklyn.

I'm really impressed with Stephen Curry. That kid can shoot it lights out, but he tweaked his ankle pretty good in that last game, so I hope that doesn't affect him too much.

CP3 is the man!
 
Celtics fan here, i dont know if they can beat the Knicks in this series,without Rondo & Allen in this series they dont have a chance against the Heat even they get lucky & passed the Knicks.
They are completely different team now.
 
Go Thunder! Went to the first playoff game which was a blowout and sold my ticks to game 2. Wish I would have done it the other way around, game 2 would have been so much more exciting to go to. Oh well I will still have tickets to more games but cant afford to go to them all. The tickets are cheap in these early rounds but still get screwed on beer and munchies.

put that thing away until the 2nd round give these lakers at least one win after the disappointing season they've had (due to injuries)
 
This Denver-GS game is pretty sick right now. This is going to be a great series! I'm really impressed with the Warriors, great young team.
 
damn this first round is so boring lol. best series so far is GS and Den. they couldve been up 3-0!

very boring but the next round should be much better
 
Wow, OKC almost blows a 27 point lead and barely escapes with a win. On one hand I would say this shows how vulnerable they are without Westbrook, but on the other hand it shows what an amazing player KD is. He's such a modest wonderful role model for everyone. He basically forfeited the scoring title this year to let Westbrook get his, but now that he's out, KD is back to being the big time scoring he was meant to be. I still don't think they're going to come out of the West.
 
The Spurs were always the team to beat in the Western Conference Westbrook or no Westbrook. Looking like a Spurs vs Miami finals. The Spurs in 6.
 
The Spurs look really good. If they can get fully healthy, they'll be tough to beat in the west. When the Heat play at their best, they are unstoppable.
 
Celtics finally won. Got the victory in OT...it was exciting there @ the end after the Knicks came back from a 20pt deficit.
 
And finally Houston wins a game. They were close in both games 2 and 3. This series deserves a game 7. I like how Houston played defense and doing a good job of denying Durant the ball. But Houston's offense looked bad at the end. I know Harden is their franchise player but iso's when he was struggling is not smart. Refs will play a big role in OKC. Durant will easily get 20 free throw attempts.
 
There are some great games on tonight. Chances to clinch the series for some (again)
 
Went to the Thunder/Rockets game tonight, great atmosphere fans were into the game big time! Sadly the thunder lost this one but had a fantastic time. Thunder fans are loud and proud, love it!
 
Yea, the Chesapeake Energy Arena is an awesome place to play. They don't call it the "Energy" arena for nothing!

It gets loud, LOud, LOUD in there

I'm hoping for Spurs vs. Thunder in the west conference finals & Celtics vs. Heat in the east conference finals. Celtics being a huge underdog @ a #7 seed.
 
I dont even know what Im hoping for in the east. Maybe Pacers vs Heat unless Rose comes back in this 2nd round match. For the west, im rooting for Memphis. They might not play a pretty game but I still like how they grind out every game every possession at a time.
