True that!

I'm kind of surprised (well maybe not, idk) that many think that a possible Thunder/Lakers series in the 2nd round of the playoffs could go to 7 games and go either way. Just kind of surprised. #wonderingifIsaiditmyself

With Perkins, I could see how people could think that. I don't think they have what it takes to beat the Lakers yet though.

Yep...I do believe that it would be a great series. I want to see Heat vs Lakers in the finals....*rubbing hands together slowly*

Not me, I want to see Lakers/Bulls in the Finals for a few reasons:
1. It's not Lakers/Celtics.
2. Phil Jackson facing former team.
3. Think it will go to 7 with Lakers winning it.
4. Heat scare me facing Lakers.

Yeah you may have a point there. But I still want to see it. Kobe hates Lebron and I want to see them too fight which is why I was rubbing my hands together...LOL

I dunno about crazy. The NBA playoffs are too predictable to me, especially the first round. A number 1 seed hasn't been upset by an 8 since Seattle got beat by the Nuggets.

Don't forget about Warriors beating Mavericks in 2007. That's considered one of the biggest upsets in playoff history.

Same here man. The Celtics, Bulls, Heat, Lakers, Spurs, and Thunder are all really good this year. That's to say nothing of the Magic and the new look Nuggets (who have been surprisingly good).

I don't think there will be a bad series after the 1st round!

I forgot that one...*laughs embarrassingly*

You get the point though..I'm ready to get into the meat and potatoes of the playoffs. They should shorten the number of games in the first round.

On another note, Kyrie Irving has made it official...He's going pro. What do ya think?

No problem. I've been saying for years that the 1st round should go back to best of 5 but I think it's a money thing.

I think it's crazy. With an NBA lockout on the way (as being predicted) he should stay in school. 2 of our guys (UNC and can't think of their names) are staying and if the 3rd stays, we're going to be pretty darn good next year!

Well, the Spurs are cruising to a win over Sacramento (108-84 with 5 minutes left), which means that if Los Angeles loses any of their remaining games, we clinch the #1 seed. OH YEAH!

Right! I'm beginning to believe that the Nuggets can win in the 1st round against Oklahoma (forgot which team they would face) or make it a 7 game series.

Also, let me add that if one of the big 3 (or big 2 1/2, depending on how you view it) of the Heat is injured they are NOT, and I repeat NOT making it to the finals! #thatisall

As a fair-weather Lakers fan, I'd like to present to your Spurs from the missionary board #2.4......

#1 seed!!!

Now go Memphis and shock the world.......HEYA!!!!

I'm watching Bucks vs Heat and I thought this game would be a breeze for the Heat but I guess I was wrong. #thatswhytheyplaythegame

blyempowered · « **Reply #376 on:** April 06, 2011, 09:34:27 PM »

Here we go: Lakers/Warriors! Let's go Lakers and at least preserve #2 seed!

blyempowered · « **Reply #377 on:** April 06, 2011, 09:36:00 PM »

Idk why but I really want to see an upset in these playoffs soooooo bad as long as it's not the Lakers....LOL!

blyempowered · « **Reply #378 on:** April 06, 2011, 09:45:15 PM »

Wow! Lakers start out 10-0 and Warriors just scored for the first time.

I want to see the Lakers lose to be honest with ya. I'm not a Laker fan...I just respect what they do. One of the best days of my life was when the Celtics beat them in the finals in 2008.

Rant: But naw my stupid behind Celtics just had to do something stupid. Who in their right mind would trade away the very thing that stopped you from winning a championship last year!!! You can tell that the Big 3 didn't like that trade and still don't. Why would you put your entire season on the health of Shaq who is older than father time himself......

*catches breath*

We will not return to the regularly scheduled thread.

Poll

Who's going to win it all this year?
