    Hey! What up Houston?

    Never left the landing pad.....

    Feel like munchin' on some Nuggets next.

    This is going to be fun.

    Go LAKERS! :D

    Yeah...I think the Fakers need to get by Houston first before thinking about the Nuggets.

    I don't think it really matters WHO wins in the West, this is Cleveland's year. :D

    I love how lakers fans are so excited about beating a team without its two best players. Say whatever you want about T-mac being a dud in the playoffs, the fact that a team missing their two best players is dead even in a series with supposedly far and away "the best" team in the West going into the playoffs shows how flaky the lakers are. Maybe we SHOULD rename then the Flakers...

    Houston is still a very good team without Yao and T-mac, this is totally different team than in the past.

    Magic should beat Boston. If Lakers win today and beat Denver they are my take to beat Cleveland.

    Why "should" the Magic beat the Celts?

    Because they have more talent? Even without Garnett, the Celts are right there.
    Because they're proven playoff winners? Nope.
    Because the Garden will be a friendly road environment? Ha!

    The Magic might beat us today, but not because they "should". With the C's short-handed, it's a toss up.

    Go Celts!

    I think the Magic have slightly more talent than Boston's current lineup. Game 7 because Boston is playing with more passion and energy.

    I have to agree with Krazy...currently the Magic have a bit more talent due to Boston injuries...but I still think the game is a toss-up. Check back tomorrow. I'm not predicting this one!

    Congrats to the Magic. Regardless of who won, I thought it would be a tight game. I was wrong - didn't expect the C's to be blown out on their home court in Game 7.

    What a game!!! Damn those Nuggets are good. Kobe and Carmelo went after each other pretty good. This will be a fun series.

    Go Lakers!

    Great game but IF the Nuggets made their foul shots in the first half, I think that the outcome would have been different. :D

    This series is definitely going 7 games, no doubt about it. Although I still stand by my original statment that whoever wins the West will not beat the Cavs.

    I have to agree, I think this may? be the Cavs year! Hey J..759....I'm familiar with that part of N.J. grew up on the Pa. side--Easton. My father worked in P-burg.

    Wow!!!!!!!!!!! :eek::eek::eek:

    Cavs go down at home in Game 1. Only by a point, but a win is a win.

    Congrats to the Magic but it is still going to be a long, hard fight to beat them 3 more times.

    Let's hope Denver can take tonight's Game 2 and go back home with the series tied.

    Its certainly been an interesting year for the NBA playoffs. I am enjoying watching. I also dig the ESPN shows with the sports writers debating, particularily Wilbon and Cornheiser along with their guests, they both picked the Magic last night if they were going to win a game in the series.

    OH yea, and the women of ESPN are definetely getting Hotter and they know sports, what a dream, now if one is into audio, sheer perfection............

    It would sure shake the can a bit if Denver and Orlando end up in the finals. I suppose not likely but still possible, at least at this point, still just speculation, but then what is not in sports?

    Nuggets are going back to Denver with momentum and a 1-1 split in LA. :D

    Now let's see if the Cavs can wake up and take care of business at home tonight.

    It's going to be tough for Cleveland. If I had to choose I would pick Orlando they match up great against Cleveland. Cleveland I don't pick to win the Finals even though everyone wants to pick them. I feel the West is taking it this year.

    Denver vs La another tough series I think Denver will win this, but only if they take the next 2 at home.

    If Denver & LA split in Denver, this series is going 7 games.

    That was an insane shot. Almost to the point that Orlando may not recover from that. I am not saying they cant beat Cleveland, but to be 1 second away from 2-0...just crushing.
