and i dont see why they couldn take game 5, with it being in Orlando...force the C's to perform big in game 6 in Boston ...and than back home to pull off the biggest comeback in the history of the entire NBA??? ...that would be soooooo sick!!!

but lets me real..is this boston team really gonna lose 4 games in a row to the magic? probably not but hey anything is possible and if the Magic take it one game at a time...i agree...it could get fun real fast.

Another thing to note...so far in all 4 games Orlando has shot the ball extremely poorly...maybe they are due for some run good for the next 3 games?!?!? My advice.....KEEP JJ IN THE GAME!!! this dude opens up the inside outside presence if somehow him and howard could get on the same page and same side of the court they can do serious damage!!! Also...Rashard Lewis where the **** have you been....it would be great to see you pour in 20+ points for a game and Jameer Nelson must attack the basket!!!! dont just come off the screen only to pull it back out...take it to the rim little man!!! Howard MAKE YOUR FREE THROWS!!!!! please and thank you....one more thing Vince Carter or Matt Barnes...one of you needs to step up your offensive intensity and make some big time buckets...seriously

If you saw Kobe's post-game news conference you can tell he is pissed. But its not the zone defense that is getting to them - the Lakers think they can score enough points to win, it is just that thier defense "sucked". Actually - I think the Suns finally broke out of their scoring slump more than the Laker's defense was bad.

Face it - the Suns were the hottest team in the NBA post All-Star break. At some point, we had to start hitting our shots.

actually the magic are 32-8(23-5 reg season and 9-3 playoffs) since the break while the suns are 33-10(23-6, 10-4). but considering where each playoff series stands I guess i can give you this one.

Touche'. Yeah, I may have misquoted what I read - I think it was in terms of shooting percentage or scoring...

It's been fun today reading all of the NBA blogs and pinhead reporters trying to backpedal on an LA/Boston final.

GL to the Magic tonight!


EDIT: HEY - whomever is the late hanger-on with the Suns in the poll above - BOOOOO... you should have believed earlier! (was 2 for the longest time - now at 3).

Roughly 3 hrs til tipoff..excited..watching around the horn and every one thinks that the Magic are going to win this one and force it back to Boston for game 6. They made a good point...are they really going to lose 3 games in a row at home? i hope not.

And the Suns were definately in a slump...Channing Frye in particular...imagine if they shoot lights out every game...bye bye lakers...really though the Suns are a sensational team and if they can keep holding the lakers to under 50% shooting they can Win the series!!!!!

Brian the "assjerk" said that for me. Sigh... FU Celtics if u blow a 3-0 lead. Lucky for the "cat I dont have" because I'd be kicking the little bastard everywhere.

Got love for my man PattyR.. (That sounded funny right?) But hope someone from Boston decides they dont wanna piss this game away.. Jesus christ this is tough to watch

 

[PC69]

FYI. I love CC. But if the C's lose tonight you all might actually see the worlds largest post with the most vulgar obscenities that surely will get me banned.. LOOL

 

[blankoblanco]

calling that 2nd technical on perkins was pretty ridiculous, that ref has some anger issues

 

[PattyR]

bout time perkins hits the showers early....cant believe the lead is under 10 points...they should be winning by 20...KEEP REDICK IN THE F***ing GAME COACH....jesus

 

[suit2please]

Horrible technical to lose Perk on.

Lucky to only be down 8 at half.

 

[PC69]

****ing god damn it.. son of a ****ing bitch shit.. that call was terrrrrrrible. stop talking to me about perkins brian lol... HORRIBLE CALLLLLLL

does that even us up for some of the stank calls the refs made for the C's in the previous games? for the ejection on Perkins, thats ridiculous. gimme a breakl

How can anyone be really interested in this. March Madness, college basketball, is the ultimate thrill. The guys playing in the pros are a bunch of overpaid crybabies.

My guess is your no better than us. These guys get paid more than us and yet u took your freetime to post about something you care nothing about..Good Job

Davis got knocked the **ck out! the announcers were wondering what happened but it was pretty obvious

The rest of this series isn't looking great, if that technical stands Perkins is out next game. Davis getting a concussion could easily mean he's out next game.

 

[blankoblanco]

the technical will be rescinded i'm 90% sure
