Re: NBA Playoffs anyone?
 

Welp, it all starts tonight.

Re: NBA Playoffs anyone?
 

guess nobody is watching or they're watching too closely to comment

Re: NBA Playoffs anyone?
 

Yes the all important game one win is in the books!! A great swarming defensive effort won the game for the Lakers and now for game 2 on Sunday.

Re: NBA Playoffs anyone?
 

CHALK IT UP! Phil is 47-0 in series in which he wins the first game. ANOTHER PARADE IN LA BABY!

Re: NBA Playoffs anyone?
 

The series is 1-0, a long way from being over. A lot of Lakers, mainly the bench played out of their ass. Even down 0-2 the Celtics are still in it with the weird 2-3-2 series schedule.

To lay your hopes on historical facts like Phil wins every series that he wins game one of is lame. The big three have never lost a series does that make me confident they will win this series no it is just some dumb stat that ABC/ESPN keep throwing out to hype the series.

My predication:

Game one: Lakers
Two: Lakers
Three: Celtics
Four: Celtics
Five: Lakers
Six: Lakers

Unless Garnet starts showing up this series is over but I enjoyed the run! Probably the last run for the Celtics for many years. =(

It's Game 1. The naysayers were out when Lebron exploded in Game 3 of the Celtics/Cavs series. They came out again when the Magic won a couple. Let's see what happens Sunday and hopefully the refs let them play. A tightly officiated series favors a finesse team.

Phil 47-0, Big 3 never lost a series, that all means squat right now.

I remember seeing a stat during a MNF game in 2005 that read someting like " A Parcell's coached team has never lost a game when leading by 13 points or more at the end of the 3rd qtr" .... how did that night end [url=http://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/200509190dal.htm]Washington Redskins at Dallas Cowboys - September 19th, 2005 | Pro-Football-Reference.com[/url]. I have not watched Basketball < or baseball > in years , but love the hockey < playoff/Stanley Cup > this year .

Actually I hate when annoucers say stuff like that especially with FT. X player has not missed a FT in 600 tries, clunk! thanks dick head!

Re: NBA Playoffs anyone?
 

lol so is the series over after 1 game? Lakers fans sure seem convinced it is.

I will tell you why it is not over because the WWE/NBA won't allow a sweep they need a big series here to keep interest level up on the WWE/NBA. Even when the Celtics won it in 2008 I was excited but my excitement was tapered by the fact that there seems to be a very unreal feeling about this league.

1 - 1, homecourt advantage....Boston :tongue

Keep the faith Cs fans.
