NBA Playoffs 2010

[ByRd]

Drew is being saved for Boston i am sure, he doesnt need to play big against the Suns but if we get through we need him against the C's. A disappointing game today and although Kobe, Gasol and Fisher played well we needed bigger efforts from Artest, Odom, Brown and Farmer, well get em game 4.

 

[Mr Saab]

Lakers don't even look like stopping him today. 42 points 11 rebounds.

Odom needs to come out and say "Amare had a lucky game today"

Man I hope so, but it doesn't look good atm. I mean the injury isn't getting any better and the only way to fix it is with surgery.

:lol:

Heard a great quote from Rachel Nichols this morning on Sportscentre, talking about Vince Carter:

"Vince said to Dwight that he's the leader, and that if the other players see him fighting hard, then they'll all want to fight hard as well".

Wow, great leadership there Vince, the only veteran on this side. Step up Dwight cause if you don't, we all going do nothing as well.

Big Baby is getting it done here in the 4th.

 

[andrew057]

Nelson gets lucky in OT and looks like this will go to a game 5.

 

[cupid]

Paul Pierce is the biggest hog I have ever seen, Ray Allen was on fire but PP wanted to play hero ball.

Glad it's going to five, saves a little bit of face. Would like to see Orlando win one more at home in front of a nice vocal crowd.

Can't see them winning another in Boston - but they're a better than even chance at home.

How bad was Vince Carter though.....wow..... I cringed everytime they brought him into the game because he stank at both ends of the court. Missed everything except one lay-up, tossed the ball away a bunch of times and refused to play defence. Disgusting performance. They should f*cking leave him in Boston.

 

[Ridders]

Hilarious line from JVG in commentary. During the 4th quarter him and Jackson are discussing the fact that Carter is on the bench and that Jameer and Barnes are on the court. Marc Jackson made the point of how Stan Van Gundy must have felt that defense could win him the game, and then Jeff replied by saying that Stan probably wanted to have his "best competitors" on the court. Awesome indirect barb at Carter :lol:

Watching this game made me wonder how fun it would be to see Dwight playing with a high calibre PG like Chris Paul or Deron Williams. Howard could be a pick and roll force. Not ripping Jameer, who I love, but playmaking isn't really his strongest asset.

 

[Tiger Hawk]

JVG has been ripping Carter heaps this series. Pretty much all the way through game 3 he called him out and towards the end of the game he was wondering aloud what Carter would be like if he was driven like Kobe. I wouldn't go that far - I've only seen a handful of guys that have been wired like that, but Carter will surely go down as one of the most frustrating players in history.

I would love somehow for the Hawks to offer JVG a mammoth contract, although I'm not sure our roster could play his way.

 

[andrew057]

Man the end of the second quarter today was f**kin insane. Kobe was hitting shot after shot after shot and the whole Suns team caught fire and couldnt miss, even Frye. Great game.

 

[andrew057]

What a move by Dragic. Suns have this won.

 

[andrew057]

Gasol has had 1 shot in the 4th quarter lol.

 

[Mr Saab]

Series back on in the west. Will all come down to home court.

 

[Special K]

Man I'd love the Suns to do this and get Nash a ring.

3 months ago they were a bees dick away from blowing this team up.

 

[The Dodger]

theyre talking up orlando like they had them owned in game 4 lol

theyre lucky PP missed his shot or else they would be out of the series right now and the celtics would have had a nice break.

the difference i believe was rajon rhondo.

he was on fire the first three games, didn't rack up too many minutes in game four which makes me believe he was given a bit of a rest.

i am prediciting rhondo to have a huge game tomorrow and close out the series.

i still can't believe how much rashard lewis is on compared to howrd and carter.

and carter is worse than the dragons come finals time.
major choke.

not impressed because i wanted to watch a great series.

western conference?

meh, don't like the lakers so haven't watched any games.

if bynum is out, makes it easier for boston to claim another title.

Was also in a bit of foul trouble.

All the pressure back on LA, our first Channing Frye sighting of the series and it could prove the difference with Bynum having a dinky knee.

 

[McLovin]

LA will dominate next game and the one after..

 

[andrew057]

LA will dominate next game and the one after..

They definitely wont if they dont get Gasol more involved.

 

[Ridders]

Redick is bringing it for the Magic.
