There's something missing in these playoffs.....

 

[BunniesMan]

Warriors v Cavs will be a great finals.

Lebron v Curry will be a great showdown. There has been too much talk of the next generation. Lebron will remind the world it is still his time.

:lol: Go Spurs Go.....

Rockets going ok so far but if there's any team that will let a big lead slip it will me my rockets haha

 

[skeepe]

Clippers needed to win game 2. We won't come back from here IMO. Beaten before we even stepped on the court yesterday.

Big win for the clippers today to tie it up 2-2.

Cavs sweep the celtics to no surprise however Love dislocated his shoulder and JR Smith will likely face a suspension after being ejected today. Could hurt them against the Bulls.

Also, wtf has happened to the Raptors, Wizards absolutley destroyed them in a sweep.

The Raptors choked. Simple as that.

I dont think the Raptors choked, Wall and Beal stepped up and Pierce just has that playoff experience and just gives them that confidence that they need.

Big news today for the Cavs, Love has been ruled out of the whole second round and JR Smith has been suspended for 2 games

 

[shaggs]

That's ok for th cavs. They have delly

What's going on in Atlanta. Best team in the east all year, being pushed by a team that scraped in??

 

[BlueAndGoldPride]

Rockets finally make it past the first rnd I fear the Clippers or the Spurs though next rnd only hope their series goes 7 and they are banged up a bit

 

[Wizardman]

Well done Clippers!!! Now, lock DeAndre Jordan in a room and do not let him out until he can free throw at an acceptable standard.

 

[lafai]

Amazing series. Clips will sweep the Rockets

 

[Wizardman]

Isn't it amazing that Clips and Rockets have two absolute monsters on the boards, yet cannot shoot a free throw to save their lives. Mind you, Howard is a free throw master compared to Jordan.
It never fails to mystify me on why these two do not work harder in this crucial part of the game. Even for selfish reasons, they can add more dollars to their contracts.

 

[skeepe]

Clippers!!!!! What a game! What a series!

 

[Aragorn]

No Spurs, no thunder.... No love......all GS for the taking...

Lebron v Curry will be a great showdown. There has been too much talk of the next generation. Lebron will remind the world it is still his time.

Lebron is old and is going to struggle in the 2nd round of the pathetic eastern conference because he is missing Love to stretch the floor. Cavs spacing will be out and he will not have the speed anymore to get into the paint consistently without Love and JR Smith stretching the floor for him - 2 free throw attempts today and 6 turnovers.

He has lost a step or two and his game was predicated on athleticism, he isn't skilled enough shooter, ball handler or post player to dominate at the same level once his quickness goes. Defenders don't have to sag off him to keep him out of the paint so much which has effected his shooting number this year. Expect Thibs to really force James to hit jumpshots this series. Kyrie is the best offensive player on the cavs now.

Also sounds like he choked in the clutch again today lol all time great though :sarcasm:

 

[Rod]

The Bulls led the game from start to finish so I don't know if you'd call it choking in the clutch. They got it back to around 3 with a few minutes left but yeah, calling it a choke is a stretch.

He did play like crap though. Definitely missed Love and JR. Irving and Shumpert were the only reason they got close.

Then again the Bulls shot the lights out so I don't know if we can take much from that game in the grand scheme of things.

Clippers on the other hand exposed the Rockets badly and that was without CP3.

Exctly they got it back to three near the end with the game on the line and he had like two turnovers and a missed layup.

Im biased as I don't like him but that is choking everyday of the week when you are a superstar of the sport and a self proclaimed top four player ever.

22 shots for 19 points is terrible, he will do better but without Love he is going to struggle to get into the lane which hampers his game dramatically. JR Smith will be back in a couple games so that should help spread the floor but this doesn't look to good for the cavs.

 

[Rod]

Or you could look at it the other way and say the Cavs largely played like shit and still were within a basket/Lebron turnover like you say. I don't think there's any question he'll play better, plus from a team perspective they've now had a game to adjust to life without Love, they'll be better for that game yesterday.

I personally don't think the Bulls can play much better than they did yesterday but I could be wrong. Just my prediction.
