*NBA playoffs*

today's thoughts:

-SAC-town sent packin'---Ray Allen: 'He got game' (sorry, couldn't resist)
-all the top seeds holdin' court so far ...
-4/5 matchups in both conferences are the only real contended series so far, as it should be
-probably going to see a indiana/detroit rumble in the jungle pt.2?

Well, I'm watching the Bulls wizards series.  bulls are my team but they really got hammered the last 2 games.

tonite's thoughts:
two great game 6s  today;
 the boston/indiana game was sick...boston survives even w/ shananigans...OT victory, you had to see this game and the way regulation unfolded, i can't explain, but i always like me some pierce/walker/payton thuggery!...and especially if it brings me any closer to ever being rid of reggie miller once and for all!
  the houston game was sweet also , and especially since i got  some good dikembe , including the infamous index finger after one of his big blocks-- "no man flys in the house of mutombo!"
hell yeah !
game 7s on sat.!
good first round stuff.
wizards and bulls tomorrow i think , bulls better bring it!

Wizards make 2nd round of playoffs for 1st time since '82!
sorry bulls fans, but it's been a long wait for d.c.

va slim's up to the minute commentary:

round 1 over.
-all the best teams advance for the most part.
-all my fav teams lose for the most part.
-as long as indiana doesn't win any more series i'll be happy though.
(damn reggie miller!--die!die!...man, i hope the pistons crush indiana)
-houston blew it!--3rd team in league history to win first two games of series , on the road , and lose series.

-at this point i guess i'm pulling for washington(good luck , they'll need it against the heat!)
- then otherwise i'm for  detroit, phoenix, miami, and seattle in that approx. order.

i think detroit will crush indiana, i just hope our fans here don't start another brawl(malace at the palace)!
i was really bummed that boston couldn't edge indy.
that would have been a good series with detroit. paul pierce is sweet!
i hope washington beats the heat. shaq is such a goon! i don't know why the refs like him so much and never make any calls against him. blind i guess

Ouch. Wizards got spanked yesterday.
Here's hoping they can pick it up.

pacers play tonight!!!  any other haters??

[VA $l!m]

i got one word for you...
-SWEEP!!!! :wink:

[VA $l!m]

DAMN!...knew i should have knocked on wood!
damn you reggie miller!!!!
and wtf , foster w/ 20 rebs!
they're still goin down!

[ucusty]

i got one word for you...
-SWEEP!!!! :wink:

how bout those pacers, looking to close this series out on tuesday or thursday.  then a sweep againest miami is in order, unfortunately

[jedifunk]

i'm so torn here.  i was a HUGE pistons fan back in the bad boys days (LOVED isiah), and would root for them, but i'm a huge jermaine o'neal fan now (knew he was gonna be a stud when he used to sit on portlands bench- when i lived there).

so either way in this series works for me.

i'm lovin the phoenix/dallas series.  amare is a STUD.  unfuckingstoppable!!!!!!!  next years MVP?

[VA $l!m]

i'm pulling for phoenix at this point...love amare, marion, and nash...
have to say that san antonio is probably the front runner though--very deep roster.

honestly . i like the pacers team , esp the younger guys like oneal, tinsley, jackson---
but i have to hate them until r.miller is done,---too many bad memories being a knicks fan!

[kitaki]

pacers ?what?
detroit coming home with the series all evened up.
i'm guessing whoever wins game five takes the series.
what do you all think?

[jedifunk]

we'll see, at this point i think its safe to say its going to go 7 games.
