HELLLLOOOOO #2 SEED! WE MISSED YA' 

[mr. dee]

Back with the #2 spot. We just need to take care against the Wolves and the Wiz.

Over the last six games combined, the Wizards have scored same amount of points as their opponents in regulation, but have gone 5-1 in that stretch.  The record is nice, but as Brad would say "They're not as good as their record."  Going back to the All-Star break, they're 7-4, but have been outscored over that same stretch.  These things tend to even out.

Wow Cavs are 10/10 from 3!
Killing the Pistons .

Lol Philly up 12 on Golden State going into the fourth quarter, and they're IN Golden State, too. The Dubs are in a bad, bad way right now.

Don't feel so angry with Durant now: they obviously, erm, need, him.

If we do face em thats the only thing that worries me...we need to control their threes. They already made the record this yr i believe in makes so if they are hot, even the Spurs or Warriors will not be able to stop that and the way Lebron see's everything its a nightmare to cover.

Got tickets to go the Clippers game tonight!

I heard somewhere that the Celtics are one of the best teams at defending the three. At least according to opponent FG%.

NBA officiating is so ridiculous anymore.

The Heat's James Johnson just got a technical foul because his right knee went into Cousins' stomach when he was going up for a right handed layup/dunk.

Anyone that knows anything about basketball knows that a proper layup has your right leg go up with your right arm on a right-handed layup. Officials are now claiming basic fundamentals are "extracurricular" activities and "unnatural" acts and assessing T's for them.

These arbitrary flagrant and "unnatural" technical foul calls are so out of hand.

2nd best. All those team stats can be found relatively painlessly on ESPN. You have to click on the column you are interested in.

The Lakers are the new Sixers.
They are beyond bad .

[jpotter33]

Oh man, Portland blowing another big lead late in San Antonio!

[KGs Knee]

Good lord, Goran Dragic is just slaughtering fools lately. Made Jrue Holiday look like a chump tonight.

Miami is not a team I want to see the Celtics face in the playoffs.

I don't think Mitch and Jim wanted to,tank.  They were tired of losing .   The Buss sister and her Hero Johnson are the ones selling off Vets , a la Philly , playing Rookies ,  nobodies and  Rookie head coach .......obvious looking to tank it out for Ball.
