Just as annoying as him yelling "Gimme that shit!" after each rebound in last years playoffs. Including missed FTs. What a fucking tool.karen lotz;1148394 wrote:Boozer yelling and 1 every time someone gets fouled is not annoying.
Not a chance in hellAzubuike24;1148410 wrote:The way both teams played tonight, the Knicks might be favored in round 1 of the playoffs.
However, whoever gets Philly RD1 might as well get a bye.
Orlando without Howard vs Indiana in round 1?
Boston/Atlanta?
The first round in the East is going to suck outside of New York vs Miami/Chicago.
Every West series except maybe 1/8 is going to be really good on the other hand.

Indiana/Heat is a toss up. Bulls or Boston will come out of the East(most likely Bulls). It'll be Bulls/Boston vs. OKC/Spurs
Those teams played D tonight, which is exactly what they would do to the Knicks, and bounce them in the 1st round.Hb31187;1148430 wrote:Not if they play like they did tonight, either team lol
Why's that? They got the talent + experience and they are healthy + will likely have home court throughout the playoffs.Hb31187;1148435 wrote:I dont buy the Spurs making a run at all
I dont doubt theyll bounce the Knicks. But I doubt they just demolish them, especially if the Knicks are playing like they are nowrobj55;1148436 wrote:Those teams played D tonight, which is exactly what they would do to the Knicks, and bounce them in the 1st round.

Experience is a euphemism for age in the Spurs case. I just dont think they have the legs to make a run, I could be wrong but I think something similar to last year happens to themsleeper;1148437 wrote:Why's that?

Playoff basketball is completely different than regular season basketball. Knicks aren't much better than last year's team that was swept in the first round.Hb31187;1148439 wrote:I dont doubt theyll bounce the Knicks.

I disagree. It's a 3 team race, although I think Boston or Chicago has the best chance to make it to the finals.robj55;1148440 wrote:the east is a 2 team race, just like it was last year
Thats such a cliche statement though. The Knicks and Heat last Sunday were playing at playoff intensity and the Heat hung on to beat them without Amare. I have no doubt at all that the Heat will win the series if they match up, but its not like theyre gonna beat em by 15 points a night and sweep them. IMO at leastrobj55;1148442 wrote:Playoff basketball is completely different than regular season basketball. Knicks aren't much better than last year's team that was swept in the first round.
I give Boston an outside chance, if Rondo plays extremely well. Last year the Heat dismantled them when they ratcheted up the D.sleeper;1148445 wrote:I disagree. It's a 3 team race, although I think Boston or Chicago has the best chance to make it to the finals.
