Happy Basketball Day, everybody!
Heat-Bulls and Lakers-Clippers tonight. (Also Orlando v Indy)
-
KD....the real deal.
-
Bad licks for the Heat last night boy.
At home too!
-
Durant really looking to end LeBron's run of MVPs.
David Stern's last day in charge was Friday. We now in the Adam Silver era.
-
The Wizards are above .500!
I wake up this morning expecting the rapture.
-

Lebron with a nice three to win last night.
Heat missin Wade boy.

Good win, but the team is just coasting and often lacks that killer instinct on a consistent basis. It is common to see them run up a double digit lead and then let their opponents come back.
They are missing Wade, but even with him in the lineup they tend to lack some focus.
That being said, I don't think that any team can beat them in a seven game series.
-
Lebron with 61 tonight over the Bobcats
-
Call me a conspiracy theorist but I starting to believe the Heat not making a run to get that number one seed in the East because the winner of the 1 vs 8 matchup, will likely face the winner of the Brooklyn vs Chicago series. Both these teams have given the Heat problems in the regular season.
Whereas the second seed will face the winner of the Toronto vs Washington series.
So coming in second will have an easier path to the Eastern conference finals.

Lebron was the victim of a huge block at the end of the Nets game last night. Lebron was goin to dunk and win haha. Big play.

Do you think it was a foul or was it a clean block?

I saw another defender on Lebron's left reach in before he went up and get blocked by the white boy. I think that is what he was fussing about in the replay.
The block was ball first then plenty hand, good block. That man must have slept well that night.

lol yea for real, he slept well because had it not worked in a favor he'll be still having nightmares from the flash backs....like Tiago Splitter

Pacers Heat tonight.
-
The Pacers are serious trouble as the series is now 3-2 in favor of the Hawks with game 6 in Atlanta on Wednesday.
Vogel getting out coached, players bickering and I still cyah beleive Roy 'Verticality' Hibbert had 0 points and 0 rebounds last night.

Hibbert is struggling on defensive due to ATL's style of using smaller players around the perimeter and gets himself in foul trouble bc of it. He needs to play big due to their lack of size in offense and make himself a viable option. Vogel may have to bench him tomorrow if they'll like to live to see another day.

This playoffs have been sensational thus far, lots of games have been nail biters and almost all the games have been thrilling to watch.....including the Bobcats

yuh lie! ;D
You are correct. You can't just write off any game and say it's over. 20 point leads evaporating, buzzer beater shots by vince carter (he still playing?), rookies lighting it up, the pacers... Great stuff.
I need one of these late west-coast games to just be a blowout though, I need some sleep.

I see your Wizards could win their first round series....outta the blue the Wizards, Bobcats, Raptors and now Hawks just emerged outta no where and giving the so-called big teams a run for their money

Wizards finally win the series 3-1. They would have swept the Bulls if Nene didn't get ejected in the last game.
Chicago is a hard to team for me to watch because for all the grit and determination they just can't score.
-
Bullets looked great lastnight against a Pacers team who are struggling because of infighting. I think top to bottom the Bullets are the better team and will move on to the EC finals and face Miami.

Hibbert still struggling in this series....it must be mental.

Far from mental... More to do with off the court team drama.

Mark Jacksn fired.
I wonder what the minimum requirement is for some of these teams?

I guess at least a conference final, a lot of these teams spend $ for instant success. Curry and Thompson are not even in the league 5 years yet and the management has hefty expectations.
-
Greg Anthony reported that the Mark Jackson firing was largely in part due to a personality conflict within the organization. Then again the writing was on the wall that if he didn't advance in the playoffs he'll be fired so who really knows at this point.
-
Good playoff run by the Wizards, but it came to an end by the hands of Indiana last night.
Once the nucleus of this team stays together and one or two key pieces are acquired, they will be a force to reckon with in years to come.
Heat vs Pacers will be an interesting ECF because you never know which Indiana team is going to show up on any given night. 'Big Verticality' is destined to have a major impact on the series, because his Bill Russell-esque prowess seems to magically appear when facing Miami/Bosh.
Prediction: Miami in 5 if they are motivated.
-
OKC trying to make a series out of it... hoping for a rehash of the Western Conference Finals from two seasons ago. Either way I think the West taking it this year... Heat is a collection of old parts, particularly so in the case of Wade.
-
Hibbert with another zero what wrong with this island boy?
-
The Rematch
-
Right now the Spurs putting on a clinic.
Plenty of time left (still the 2nd qtr) but this is damn near perfect.

Half time and plenty time left still.....though the Spurs are balling and scoring at will, the Heat are still in this.
-
The Spurs were just too much much for the Heat tonight, despite a valiant effort in the 3rd quarter by Miami, "mama there goes that man" Kawhi Leonard was too much for them to handle.....Birdman will agree lol
-
Miami actually outscored San Antonio 42-40 in the second half... problem is they gave up 71 while "only" scoring 50 themselves in the first half. The 50 points at the half is a decent total, but clearly the 71 is "lacklustre" as fatman in de 10-button suit call it during the press conference. When they look at the tape that's what they'll see... not enough defensive tenacity in the first half.
None of that should take away from the Spurs offensive execution though... I can't stand them, but from an objective standpoint it's breathtaking to watch at times.
-
Yea the way the Spurs move the ball is fascinating, nothing flashy but highly effective.
What you think about Miami trying to lure Carmelo in next year and the big 3 taking pay cuts.....that will have 4 of the top 5 players taken in the same draft on the same roster if my memory serves me right.

It will make them unstoppable. Although Carmelo is a defensive liability, I believe his offensive prowess will take the Heat to another level.
Wade has one, maybe two good seasons left and when he is gone they should have Lebron, Carmelo and Bosh as the nucleus of the team.
-
If Anthony wants to go join them let him... it would only confirm my attitude about him that he's a mercenary. Good player but the Knicks never should have gutted the roster to trade for him.

Spurs has revenge on their minds.....

Miami don't know if they coming or going right now.

Goin 2 cif they can get Melo 2 have d Big 4 haha
-
Heat looking real tired....and bored. I have a feeling Lebron not staying in Miami.
Can't wait to see what Phil Jackson has in store for NY. He gonna strip them down and build them back. I was hoping Durant will come to Toronto but if Phil wants him, he'll get him.

If he feel people luv him now wait and see what happens if he leaves Miami.

Pity Phil wasn't the GM when that trade was made because best believe Carmelo would have still been in Denver or playing ball for some small market non-contender.
