you think denver would have learned their lesson last year with jr smith, and now he's doing the same shit again, they could have traded him for something decent after he infected the entire team in their playoff series last yr but now they are going to just have to let him go for nothing

4/23/2011 2:28:29 PM

Hansbrough losing a contact 3 minutes into the game

4/23/2011 2:51:29 PM

anyone know where to find NBA streams?

4/23/2011 3:03:40 PM

Derrick Rose is the Rafa Nadal of the NBA

4/23/2011 4:14:27 PM

also, lots of Pacers fans at this Bulls game

[Edited on April 23, 2011 at 4:20 PM. Reason : might as well live blog it]

4/23/2011 4:19:53 PM

lots of Pacers fans at a Pacers home game? you don't say

4/23/2011 4:30:52 PM

that's the joke

4/23/2011 4:34:13 PM

Well at least we can put the rose for mvp argument to bed, these last two games illustratee he's at least a year or two away from being an elite player.

4/23/2011 5:38:04 PM

How does a team with a payroll like dallas not have an NBA caliber backup PG on the roster.

I guess they kept hoping beaubois would recover. Barea has been killing them all series, praying kidd can stay fresh a Few more games

4/23/2011 5:44:44 PM

Dallas was up over 20 points in the 3rd quarter and Portland just cut it to 2 with 90 seconds to go

damn Roy trying to convert the 4 point play

[Edited on April 23, 2011 at 7:38 PM. Reason : .]

4/23/2011 7:38:02 PM

the ghost of Donaghy is upon you

4/23/2011 7:45:04 PM

Epic.

[Edited on April 23, 2011 at 7:49 PM. Reason : pretty good look given the circumstances]

4/23/2011 7:46:17 PM

what a 4th quarter

Portland outscored Dallas 35-15 in the final period

[Edited on April 23, 2011 at 7:50 PM. Reason : .]

4/23/2011 7:49:53 PM

Series is over unless Caron comes back. Can't let a lineup like Portland back alive.

4/23/2011 7:53:26 PM

damn I like barea, the dude is prob like 5'6 and he's totally fearless, anyhow this was awesome to see for roy (although I missed most of the game), with a long off season hopefully he can get back to being an elite player

and I wonder if hansbrough puts those filthy contacts he always loses right back in to his eyes

4/23/2011 7:59:12 PM

Van Gundy just called Marc Gasol 'Pau' twice in about 6 seconds

4/23/2011 8:02:31 PM

Dallas is a solid team but they really need a better option than jason terry he's pretty done. Killed them last year. He's playing better this year but he's just too streaky for a guy who doesn't do anything else but shoot

I knew the wholle game they were going to blow that. That always happens when I have way too much money on a series

4/23/2011 8:23:35 PM

so I guess no chance of caron butler coming back then this yr

4/23/2011 8:32:11 PM

lol

4/23/2011 10:18:35 PM

haha Felton up to his typical postseason play

4/24/2011 12:50:35 AM

Will JR smith be reprimanded for his post-game behavior?

4/24/2011 1:48:11 AM

very doubtful...he basically bitched about the no-call, and then more importantly walked away

thats the type of thing i'd hope the refs would let slide, its not like he was punching people

4/24/2011 1:58:47 AM

it's going to be miami or the lakers for the title, bulls don't have what it takes, I'd go 65% la, 35% miami at this point

4/24/2011 2:28:11 AM

That's giving LA a lot of credit to crown them after only being up 2-1 on the Hornets, especially considering how shitty they played in April. I would definitely not count out Oklahoma City in the West either, or Boston in the East.

4/24/2011 9:31:48 AM

yeah but those pieces of crap always manage to turn things on just in time, plus as usual I can sense things starting to drift their way, san antonio gave them the 2 seed by benching their entire team and they have the one first round opponent in the west that is no threat to beat them no matter how bad they play with west injured

4/24/2011 1:05:09 PM

Fire Spoelstra.

4/24/2011 1:19:07 PM

lol, Heat.

4/24/2011 1:21:17 PM

so much for that slow start.

4/24/2011 2:00:22 PM

4/24/2011 3:00:00 PM

That charge was lebrons 6th foul with 3:22 to go.

4/24/2011 3:22:35 PM

damn Miami is blocking a bunch of shots

4/24/2011 3:24:21 PM

7th foul on lebron loose ball foul with about 1 minute to go pushed off on iguodala.

4/24/2011 3:32:04 PM

Clutch

4/24/2011 3:32:38 PM

i hope Lebron bricks a 3 at the buzzer

[Edited on April 24, 2011 at 3:36 PM. Reason : ]

[Edited on April 24, 2011 at 3:37 PM. Reason : why dont you go for a quick alley oop on the inbounds with that much time left]

4/24/2011 3:32:46 PM

The quality of basketball being played in the NBA playoffs is great. Far better than anything you see in the college game. Execution offensively and defensively is top notch

4/24/2011 3:57:33 PM

nobody is boxing out

4/24/2011 4:05:13 PM

Big Baby doesn't want to step to Melo. After all he might punch him then run away.

Also whenever I hear Rondo yell to his teammates I think of Chris Tucker

4/24/2011 4:42:36 PM

Knicks are gonna be real good next year though with time to gel, questions at PG though

if they get Paul go ahead and crown em though

[Edited on April 24, 2011 at 6:20 PM. Reason : .]

4/24/2011 6:10:12 PM

Billups
Fields
Anthony
Amare
Yao

4/24/2011 6:27:09 PM

if you're gonna stick with Billups instead of trying to get CP3, why not go ahead and go after Howard for your center

4/24/2011 6:29:36 PM

^ With the lockout the cap figure is going to drop. There's no way in hell they could get either Howard or Paul as the way things are right now.

4/24/2011 6:32:49 PM

probably not but if you have a chance at getting Yao or Howard, you're gonna go after Howard

anybody think Gilbert Arenas has a big game or does Atlanta go up 3-1?

4/24/2011 6:34:47 PM

Yao's salary is going to go down big time. Some team might actually end up getting a great deal.

4/24/2011 7:34:46 PM

You can probably get Greg Oden on the cheap too but I don't think he'll stay healthy either

Howard is pretty much the only true center in the league size-wise who happens to be built like a power forward which is part of the reason why he's never been hurt

big freakish centers like Yao don't often have the physical makeup to play long productive NBA careers

4/24/2011 7:38:20 PM

Hawks are falling to shit, Crawford is the only one who can score

Howard is a monster but the rest of the Magic can't do shit

Joe Johnson looks like he did last year when he didn't want to be a Hawk

4/24/2011 9:18:39 PM

The western conference is still much more entertaining.

4/24/2011 11:53:52 PM

until next round.

4/24/2011 11:59:35 PM

New Orleans fans cheering Kobe's injury

4/25/2011 12:13:38 AM

I cant get over how bad the rest of the Magic team is.

If Howard re-signs there he's an idiot. His supporting cast is fucking anemic this year.

4/25/2011 12:13:38 AM

They thought they could surround him with just shooters and be great.
