I can see philly getting that first home game in game 3 with all the excitement behind them, but I think Detroit gets them easy. They'd need Lou Williams, Thad Young, Rodney Carney and those young cats to outrun the old vets for any chance.

Kobe should be MVP. I just hate on pgs winning it after they snubbed Kidd in '02. 

I think the Lakers getting the #1 seed is going to give Kobe the edge.

I'm with daba on this. Kobe MVP makes the most sense. Can you believe he's never gotten it?

And Suns vs. Celtics in the finals, god willing. 

thatd be awesome.... 

Stupid Rockets!

Nice win by the Sixers! 

Rockets showed heart!

If they can muster a win on Saturday they're back in it!!! 

Fuckin bullshit Raptors and their lack of rebounding.

Also Shaq looks like the worst thing that could have ever happened to the Suns.... terrible.

Suns are done. Raptors are done. Nuggets are more than done. Mavs are more than done.

The trades for Kidd and Shaq aren't looking too good.  

It aint over till its over dudes... (that will probably be around 10:30 et tonight)

But its only 5:15pm so it aint over yet! 

that was pretty good prognosticating on that Detroit series. The Pistons just don't like playing for Flip come playoff time.

Plus Philly should be fun to watch the newx few years. 

Well its 10:20 and its officially over.

My allegiances now switch to the Pistons... Theyll close it out.

Deeeeetroit Baaaaasketbaaaall. 

yeah the Pistons are masters at making all playoff matchups into a series.

the Hawks/Celtics series is really good!
