Err… Huh? NBA Confusion With Malice
28 04 2008What the… I turn away from the PC/TV area for one minute, and Boston lose? To Atlanta? Ok, well… it might have been longer than a minute. Just. But it felt like a minute. Did I slip, hit my head and enter an alternate reality?
Not a lot of time, so a quick wrap up:
Atlanta beat Boston, 102-93. Go figure. Rob, take over - I’m in a state of shock.- LA joined San Antonio as the only team to move up to 3-0 in the NBA playoffs, beating up on the hapless Nuggs 108-84… And is it just me, or do the Lakers look good? Ok, I’m biased. But they do, don’t they? Meh… it’s only Denver. Scratch that I guess.
- Orlando were too strong for Toronto, beating the cRaptors 106-94. Sorry, but tired, and having difficulty watching anything from this series.
- To be expected, Houston are on the brink here against Utah, with an 82-86 loss. Now, the series heads back to Salt Lake City where the mormons now have something else to do - castigate Ric Bucher. Thanks Ric (always did think that guy was a complete idiot. Wait, did I type that out loud?).
Today’s games:
- Cleveland at Washington - do the Wiz capitulate, or does this get really, really interesting. And does Souljah Boy hit the game?
- San Antonio at Phoenix - I love the smell of napalm in the morning, it smells like… err, no… wait. That’s just Shaq’s jockey-shorts at the notion of Kobe going further in the playoffs than him.
- Detroit in Philadelphia - Now this series is interesting. Gods, I hope, I hope, I HOPE the 76ers keep rolling…
- New Orleans in Dallas - do the Mavs continue? Or do they roll over & show the underbelly? You know, I think they keep going… at least for now.
Still scratching my head…. the only positive spin is that it might wake the Celts up a little and realize that no one is actually going to hand them the NBA title. Game 4 tonight should be interesting to see which green machine turns up.
I’m thinking KG is going to be more than just a little mad at his team and the Celts take the sting and the crowd out of Game 4 early on before wrapping up Game 5 in Beantown.
dallas and houston will be out.. the suns still have chances..
i though denver nuggets could play the lakers, but it seems i was wrong. the nuggs may take one today, but they will probably lose to lakers.
major props to atlanta for winning today’s game against the celts..
