I'll quote a friend of mine on Facebook:

"This series is going to a) give me heart failure, b) make me fail finals and c) cause me to not eat dinner ever again."

How's it affecting you?

A) walk around angry all day

B) happy for the effort the team has given, especially Ray, BBD, and Rondo

C) keep fantasizing about hitting Miller, Noah, and Hinrich

I look 20 years older, bags below my eyes, haven't laughed in about 2 weeks, ditched my friend and family just to stay in and watch the series.

This series have gotten to me. I really need Garnett back. I forgot what blowing out a team feels like..

Yeah, it's sad but at times I forget we even have KG on our team.  It really feels like a different team than when KG is playing.  I love this team because they are digging deep and giving us amazingly close games, but it's tough to watch and know that these games wouldn't be that close if we had KG healthy.

Yeah, one good thing I can say is that even if we lose this series I feel like we've had as much excitement as most teams can expect to have in a whole post season.  So if they lose on Saturday we can't be totally disappointed with this post-season.

That said, I can tell you if they lose I'm not going to be paying that much attention to the playoffs anymore.

Overall, I've enjoyed the series, but tonight, my blood pressure is through the roof.  There were so many dumb decisions tonight, and now there's a chance that we're going to lose a playoff series that should be over.

Yeah, I've said this in the game thread, and it's unfathomable to most I'm sure, but I really don't think I'm going to even watch game 7.  If it's even a quarter as close as this game was, it'll be too much to watch, especially when I have studying and work to do.  I can't take another game like this one.

I've criticized the refs after a lot of other games so I feel I have the right to say that tonight was actually a solidly officiated game. Sure, there were mistakes, as there are bound to be in any game (nevermind a 3 OT game), but the refs got a handle on the dirty play early on and called the game consistently from there on out. My only complaint is that Perkins picked up some very cheap fouls - especially that foul early on in the game when Miller took one of those Anderson Varejao flops, acting as if Perk elbowed him in the face when no contact was made. The refs missed that one, but I honestly don't have anything else to complain about as far as the refereeing went.

I agree, Roy. This game could have been won in regulation.
