2010-11 NBA Playoffs / Finals

[Kiorrik]

All of the other championship contenders lost their game this weekend.  Meanwhile we closed out the first sweep of the playoffs 

But needed to pull out close wins at home in the first two games of the playoffs, don't you remember?

Doesn't really affect the fact that we swept the Knicks

So Derrick Rose and Kobe both have a sprained ankle. It just keeps getting better and better!

Go hornets. Good game

Ugh. I see what you did there, but respectfully disagree :p

I'm so happy for New Orleans and yes Chris Paul is my favorite non Celtic player. I just love everything that he's done while playing in the playoffs against the defending champs.

Did anyone notice that we didn't have a single player with under 5 rebounds today? Even Nenad had 5 in 7 minutes!

Yes...FWF did.

Craziest thing about it is that both injuries were non-contact; just a bad step or catching a toe.  Very fluky.

But I think both will be fine, at least by the point where we'd be playing em.

I know, I was being facetious.

You know if the Heat lose another game to Philly, people will start hopping onto our bandwagon again.



But I think LA has reason to be concerned. Assuming they get past NOH (which is no longer a given, they are playing well and have no real answer for CP3 while Gasol struggles and Kobe is seemingly breaking down), they will face an underrated Dallas team or the inspirational full-of-heart-and-hustle Blazers.

IF they get past them, it seems they will have the balanced Thunder waiting for them, but I think that IF is getting bigger and bigger by the day.

I'd be surprised if anyone still has them as the clearcut favorite.

Can we vote Jarret Jack an honorary Celtic tonight?

He's been great. Big shots, big heart.

Loved when he yelled at everyone for slacking off down the stretch last game. Loved his dagger shots against LA even more. Seems like a true leader.

There is a good shot this LA/NOH goes the full seven now

Things could get really interesting don't see LA taking the next two

[PosImpos]

dang, Chris Paul showing everybody that he is still the best PG in the league.  Sorry Derrick, you've still got a ways to go.

Rose can do a lot, but CP3 can do it ALL.

I just wonder, how the Magic intent to improve their roster next season, when it seams they are failing to do so for a couple of years in a row.
Dwight may not be pacient if they fail again next year, and the market is not nearely floded with talent as it was last year.

They have Charles holding a rabbit now...
