basketball playoffs 2010

Now the Lakers need to close out. I must admit I didn't think that Boston would be able to close this one out but I am glad they did.

I had no doubt that we would win this game. Ofcourse that means nothing being that I am not there and am just a fan. Game 4 suprised me a bit and game 5 was no shock as I just had a gut feeling that the Magic would win it but my gut told me we would win this!

Do you think the Lakers will close it out tomorrow? I honestly did not think the Suns would be this tough for the Lakers and have suprised me, so with that said I do not really know who will win.

In the wake of Game 5, I was a serious doubter, but as last night rolled around, I felt a little better. Once I knew Davis was playing - my friend that was there said he looked like himself during warmups - I was centered.

Oddly, I was out for the night with some friends at dinner, so I didn't see anything until halftime. You can imagine that the text I got of "Nate's on FIRE!!!" wasn't received as anything more than a joke (funny to me, since I've hated that trade since it happened, and still do, because I'd still rather have Eddie House).

What a game by Nate, only 4 more wins to go.

Someone may have wanted to tell the Magic not to leave Ray Allen alone on the outside for all those take-your-time jump shots. I can see letting Nate go off, but Ray Allen? :? :?

So, do the Suns force Game 7? I say yes. They seem to be handling the Artest shot alright and they can certainly feel more comfortable at home...

Lakers win! Thursday night it's on, LA with the home court where they haven't lost in the playoffs.

Its time to lose your first :twisted:
I think our best chance is to win the first game in LA. If we win, we will have a good chance to win it all! I say the first game because our defense has suprised everyone so far not only that Kobe will not be going off every game in this series.
Like you said Rickz "IT ON" !

Season series was 1-1 with each winning on the others court, but the Celtics won on a last second shot when Kobe was out. It's going to be a dogfight but I think the Celts are little more banged up. Should be great either way.

Neither did the Magic until the Celtics came to town.

I think the entire series comes down to the Celtics front court and if someone on the C's can step up into the James Posey role from two years ago. I still think Pau and Bynum are soft, and if Perk, KG, Davis, and Sheed and bang bodies down low and set the tone I don't see LA's bigs getting back into it. Kobe has been on fire lately, and the C's defensive stopper this year is TA. He's been alright so far at defending on the perimeter, but Kobe has the size and strength to back TA down.

That would be great, but I think it's going 7. Two years ago it ended on my birthday, and I think if the Celtics take it this year it's going to happen on the same date.

Man Lets get this series rollin already !!!

2 Big keys for us to win the series are Rondo back has to be atleast 90% and KG's Legs have to be atleast 80%. During the Orlando series his legs litterally look about 50%, he could hardly even dunk the damn thing :| .

Go Celtics!!!!!!!!
