NBA Playoffs 2007-2008

You got that right!

Kobe Bryant is better than LeBron James, though.

Lol at Baron and his agent. They are "threatening" to opt out to coax the Warriors into giving him an extension. But they have absolutely no leverage since no team in the league has the cap-space to afford Baron Davis.

Chris Mullin needs to force Baron into taking Chauncey Billups/Steve Nash money ($10M per year). The most I'm willing to pay Baron is 3 years @ $12-13M. And I'd rather let him walk than pay him anything above 3 years, $39M.

Considering Fisher's daughtert has eye cancer that really does sum up how much Utah fans are claseless

That's horrible.

I'd be more concerned about Kobe's back if I were a Lakers fan, to be honest. If he's not healthy, wthere in trouble.

But if he's healthy, I just don't see Utah winning a game in LA, which is something that they have to do to win the series.

Vlad, Farmar, Walton have really got to step up

Hopefully, he will be okay. If he bails out now, that would be a huge mistake!

while that utah fan's actions were poor, i wouldn't call all their fans classless. last year after some fans threw trash at the spurs, our newspaper got quite a few letters from Jazz fans apologizing for the way people acted. its unfortunate, but all teams have some rotten apples

will boston ever win a road game?

utah almost did everything they could to give up game 4, but at the same time, i think the lakers did a few things to lose the game as well. gota make your shots from the line and jackson said the lakers relied on kobe too much, but at the same time it seemed kobe could've easily passed it instead of taking some of those questionable shots during the end of regulation (i think it was). either way, in OT no Laker really stood up

glad to see the spurs tie up the series 2-2. home court really did them good, but now they need to take it away from NOs. they need to continue to let paul get his 20 pts, but shut down the rest of the hornets. good news for NOs=they have home court advantage still, bad news=how will their young guys respond after losing 2?

Did you see the Lakers' player who got ejected because of a technical foul? The blocks that the Jazz executed on Kobe Bryant were just as worse. I thought that Bryant was getting battered and the referrees were just watching happily and making no foul calls.

You know what might derail the Celtics? Doc Rivers. Who was the last coach on his level to win a title? The only name on there that isn't a Hall of Fame level coach is Rudy T, who was still a pretty good coach.

i think if the celts lose, it goes all around and not just doc. the players just don't seem to have the same intensity as they do at home and some of that has to fall on the guys who are on the court.

and marc, those fouls are hard to call. the jazz guy was going hard and anything can happen when you try to block. he may have been ejected more so cause jazz guy drew blood. but as for the refs, keep in mind the lakers missed quite a few of their free throws, they didn't lose cause of the refs.

That's a pretty impressive list.

I'm not blaming the referees, but I was just shocked that both of those vicious blocks weren't flagged. But, you're right about the Lakers' guy drawing the technical because blood was exposed.

Where can the Lakers buy fake blood?

The Celtics lost to the Cavaliers, scoring in the high 70's.

The series is now tied at two games a piece.

Kevin Garnett was contained to only two points.

More Doc Rivers coaching flaws. Leaves Sam Cassell in the game. Guy is the human "black hole" Once he touches the ball, it is never worked back around. It is IMMEDIATELY hoisted up. Jeez. No rotation to KG in the 4th. And thats the problem with having a big name as your main scorer. Teams can take him away with a double. A guard can get the inbounds before the double.

Oh well, Game 5 at the Fleet. C's need to win the next 2, but more than likely this is going 7.

I would have thought that the Celtics would be capable of sweeping the Cavaliers. I guess not!

The Celtics will lose because of what they have been talking about all year..Each player now wants to be the "hero" so they are taking bad shit...AND RAY NEEDS TO WAKE UP OR DOC SHOULD BENCH HIM..Posey plays better defense and will make some shots.

Is this Ray's first time in the Playoffs? He hasn't really been a big factor in their series thus far.
