Basketball (NBA, College, etc.)

The Magic rolled over without much of a fight against Boston, 94-71.

Those guys are done.

How embarrassing. :shakehead:

They embararrsed themselves is right, seem to have given up, :usuck: be surprised if the Celts don't sweep, exactly what the networks really want. :bleh:

LOL, do people really think there's some conspiracy to prolong series just to bring in more revenue? :crazy:

No, actually they probably want the Celts to go to the finals just not this way, :grumble: I would have rather seen them win in an exciting 7 game series, hopefully the finals will be exciting. :fingerscrossed:

It will be if the Lakers win it all. :P

They should beat the Celts, game 7 if needed would be in LA, both teams are fairly evenly matched, :applaud: finals are supposed to start June 3rd, if there's 2 sweeps it'll be over a week before they start it. :usuck:

Like in the previous two games, the Lakers don't really play much defense, but this time it catches up with them and they lose to the Suns, 118-109. :shakehead:

Well the previous two games they were shooting 50 percent from long distance and Gausol & Kobe were kicking ass like Nodame & Chiaki....you don't need to play defense. Gyabo!

LOL.

But as the saying goes, though, "Live by the sword, die by the sword."

Au contraire....I live in the world of Puri Gorota. :bonk:

I think they'll be okay...Los Lakers, that is.

They are punking the Magic badly. Dwight Howard + Big Games in the Playoffs = :gay:

The same can be said for the entire Magic team: Vince Carter, Rashard Lewis, etc.... Those guys disappeared.

Like magic. :beaten:

Wow Cavs head coach Mike Brown was fired. :shakehead:

bout damn time - he shoulda been fired last playoffs for his horrible offense. "hey let's just give lebron the ball and do pick and rolls all day". then he does the same crap this playoffs, no sort of adjustment whatsoever.

I had a sinking feeling they'd stumble in game 3... You have to play defense sometime and not expect to outscore a team in a shootout. :sweat:

You can't totally blame the coach... Like Kobe, LeBron needs solid, supporting players, not some overweight center who's past his prime and a bunch of streak shooters...

True about the coach though he couldn't get them motivated in the least against the Celts, at their salaries though why would anyone have to motivate them. :usuck: And true too about Shaq, that was the missing ingredient to them? :muack: Correct me if I'm wrong, didn't Kobe restructure his contract so they could bring in Gasol? :doh: That still goes down as one of the biggest/smartest deals in NBA history. :sweat:
