And Bobby Jackson.

Err dude, Bobby Jackson got traded to Houston a while ago...

And... Jazz will beat the Lakers... Or as a great man once said... The Lackers...

[Lycanthrope]

Damn. I'm stupid.

I knew that too when I was cheering for the Rockets against Utah. I'm stupid.

[Krimsun Monkeh]

No worries ;P. I do it all the time...

I is sad... New Orleans lost to San Antonio... Series tied at 2-2... I was hoping for New Orleans to get a 3-1 lead heading back to NO. :/ I'm hoping for 7 games in this series.

[Lycanthrope]

That would have been lovely. I'm definitely for a New Orleans win. Along with Utah, Cleveland, and Orlando.

[blinkboy211]

I think the final round for each side will end up being what alot of people expected mainly oin the East side more than west. I think Boston will knock out the Cavs and Detriot will finish Orlando. Thus a Detriot/Boston series which hard to say cause neither team has preformed the way they should let alone consistancy has been an issue.

The West i think the road does go through San Antonio which is why i think the Spurs will advance past New Orleans. Then with a Utah win you get to see two really good teams face off. Spurs of course know how to play when they need and is really a cutch team. Utah would be facing a spot they havent seen in over 10 years and with their team it would be if their players could actually preform when their backs are against the wall cause htey would be the underdogs going into the finals.

Of course hard choice but i think i have to stick with my orginal picks which would be Spurs/Boston matchup. If it gets to that then i guess i will pick out a winner.

[Krimsun Monkeh]

San Antonio will probably win in 7. They'll find a way to win in NO. But, wouldn't it be sweet for a Utah-New Orleans Series? ;P Battle of the Point Guards? Anyway, Boston better get their first win on the road tonight. And Detroit's probably going to finish off Orlando tomorrow unless something goes terribly wrong.

Boston-Detroit Eastern Conference Finals, I'd like Detroit to win in 7 but who knows at this point. Both teams aren't performing well.

I'm gonna say Detroit - San Antonio

[blinkboy211]

I think it really doesnt matter which two teams get into the Championship game cause i think the West is just far more superior to the East. Boston and Detriot are the only two teams i could see matching against the West and yet they arent even playing like they could. So i say either way the West will win the series in at most 6 games.

[T-M]

The East has won a total of 33 Championships and the West a total of 27 Championships. But since 1999, the West has won 7 of 9 Championships.

And the Lakers aren't going to lose at home on Wednesday.

As I've said this entire year, it's going to be Boston-Lakers. The Bulls, my favorite team of all time, probably would have been a history making team this year if they would have just gotten Kobe, Pau, and Garnett. But stupid John Paxson felt the Bulls were just fine the way they are.

[blinkboy211]

Uh ok who cares how many have won total all that matters is the way the team are this year. THe better teams lie in the West and not in the East. It has been that way since Jordan retired. Lakers i hope get beat so bad Wednesday that Kobe cries about how bad the refs are so he can have some excuse.

[Krimsun Monkeh]

Yeah but Kobe got Semi-Injured yesterday in the Utah game. And, Utah almost won the first game I think, or it was the 2nd. But either way, if Kobe's injured, it leaves an opening for the Jazz... Especially if their bench starts shooting well.

True...

Amen...

That is what I was saying.

In other news, the All-Defensive Teams were announced and Kobe was on the First Team. Man, Kobe's beastin'. And, Knicks sign D'Antoni, who I think should have stayed with the Suns.

[blinkboy211]

Correct me if I am wrong, but did CP3 complain to the refs and the media about Manu Ginóbili's shot at 0.8 during Game 3? Did he not bitch about the shot not getting off in time when it truly did?

But lets see about Kobe. Hmmm oh yeah thats right this is the same guy who at the begginning of the season cried about wanting to leave the Lakers. Once they get beaten by the Jazz watch Kobe start this all over again about wanting to be traded. If you want to mock me saying i am not mature then go look at Kobe and look at his whining patterns of the past. So i really dont care if another player bitches about something that is border line.

[Lycanthrope]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!


Lakers beat the Jazz on the road. :'(

I hate Kobe.

[Sora_Rox_My_Sox]

lol, i was rooting for my Lakers! go kobe!

game 7 of the Celtics and the Cavs....dun dun duuunnnnn!
i think the Cavs will probably win, as much as i love Kevin G, he has been off his game lately....but so has Lebron

Lakers vs Spurs! GO LAL!

[T-M]

Once they get beaten by the Jazz

Wait, you mean how the Jazz "beat" them yesterday? Oh, my friend, I think THEY got beat. Lakers won 108-105. Now it's on the the Conference Finals.

I say Lakers-Spurs. Lakers in 7.

lol, i was rooting for my Lakers! go kobe!

Lakers vs Spurs! GO LAL!

Praise the Lord, another Lakers fan like me.
