I thought they all had fixed brackets after the regular season.....?


Not in the NFL. It changes based on which seed wins.

Maybe because they have a Wild Card?

Yeah, after Wild Card weekend, that's when it can change.

Baseball's wild card works the same way?

Can't remember.......?

Yup, same way but that could change next year when another wild card team gets added. :nut:
Thunder have a good team but they could have it easier as I mentioned facing the Grizzlies in round 2, if the Spurs lose that means the next 2 highest seeds have to play each other in the Lakers and Mavs, if they hold on. :sweat:

Bulls eliminate the Pacers, 116-89.

Magic beats the Hawks, 101-76.

The Lakers win 106-90. A crappy first quarter, but the Lakers played really well through the last 3 quarters. Good balance offensively, with 6 players scoring in double figures.

^ And one of the keys: the Hornets only had three offensive rebounds to the Lakers 15.

Lakers outrebounded the Hornets, 42-25... A winning stat. :victory:

I dunno, but he gave the Spurs a Stay of Execution... :beaten:

EDIT: Spurs win, 110-103.


WOW. :sweat: :shocked: :sweat: :shocked: :sweat:


Will it be a turning point in the series?

The Spurs lives for another day. The Grizzlies had several chances to win the game but they screwed up.

If the Spurs wins the next game, they'll be advancing to the next round.

Nope.

They're still down 3-2.
28 Apr 2011, 11:36 #6756
^^ They may be down 3-2 but those are the kind of games which can turn a whole series around, you wonder how a young team like that reacts after giving the game away? :shamefulcry:

It was a demoralizing loss... But they are going back to Memphis.

If they were going back to San Antonio, they'd be in trouble.

^^ Really not good D on that shot, :shakehead: one quick fake and he had a real good look at the basket. 3 games tonight with a chance for all series to end, Hawks are the only one of the 3 playing at home, which Jekyll and Hyde Hawks team will show up tonight? :nut:
