Amazing how many walks aren't called in last quarter.
Eiither steps under the basket or extra movement away frpm the ball.
Does the nba want to seem more exciting and just not call these things to stop the game. They haven't called traveling for about a decade. It doesn't matter if it's the regular season or the playoffs, traveling has to be absolutely blatant in order for it to get called nowadays.

Dirk's playoff ability is COMPLETLEY gone. Wade owns his nuts in a jar.

 Re: NBA 2008-2009 season
Celts/Bulls are some fun games to watch, but I'm amazed at how many people are on both teams that I loathe... Marbury, Noah, Garnett, Rondo... and I can't think of any on either team that I actually like, and would want the Pistons to get.

If the Pistons could hit a shot they would be in the game...
Oh, and I think the only like-able person on the Cavs is LeBron. Everyone else acts like a douche. Just because LeBron is on your team, doesn't mean you ARE LeBron.

 Re: NBA 2008-2009 season
Ariza is my favorite laker. His presence is as much a difference as bynum. Probably more IMO. Kobe is just playing in his 2nd gear. I am hoping lakers dont get too complacent.

 Re: NBA 2008-2009 season
Rockets are hanging in there, even with Roy and Aldridge combining for 51 through 3 quarters and Yao having 4 fouls and scoring only 7. Winning this game or not, I'm very much encouraged. The balance is the best I've seen them in any of the playoffs since Yao joined.

 Re: NBA 2008-2009 season
Utah's surprisingly in the game. Not sure going back to the Gasol/Bynum combo mid series after months of Odom/Gasol was the best decision. I think Bynum as the backup center with Odom/Gasol starting would be the best move

Good job Portland. Whenever Roy has a game like this all I can think is FML

 Re: NBA 2008-2009 season
Detroit's starters look completely lifeless... they really do look like they have already packed it in for the year. I say they should play all the bench players the rest of the series... those guys are playing with passion and energy and are the ones who made it a game near the end. They'd still get beat, but at least it would be more fun to watch.
As I said before the series, I really do wish the Pistons would have not made the playoffs... this is an ugly way to see this once terrific team go down.

 Re: NBA 2008-2009 season
I wasn't watching but apparantley Mutombo's knee went out in the game today he had to be carried off on a stretcher, afterwards he said that's it for his career. That's a shame... Bye Deke.

 Re: NBA 2008-2009 season
I must say that I haven't enjoyed watching the Nuggets so much in a long time. Melo is looking good. J.R. Smith is keeping it under control (mostly). Martin is playing the D he is capable of. And Billups is playing like I remember him doing when he was in high school. It's great. We need to keep the momentum going for sure.

 Re: NBA 2008-2009 season
I almost can't watch the Nuggest play anymore... it makes me sad. Is there any way we can send them back Iverson for Billups?
And to think we gave them Billups AND McDyess for Iverson. This was worse than when Joe Dumars picked Darko Millicic over Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh in the draft.

 Re: NBA 2008-2009 season
Atlanta.. kind of sucks. I dunno what's going on with Joe Johnson... he has 3 inches on Wade, who's not the best man to man defender in the first place... he should have no excuse to suck this much

 Re: NBA 2008-2009 season
Detroit will feel like shit if Brown benches LeBron during the second quarter, to save his energy for "real" games.
We'll see. What is a little concerning is that Detroit has out-shot Cleveland in all games so far. I expect a little more out of Cleveland's D.

 Re: NBA 2008-2009 season
That's two games now the Celtics have choked away. Should've won the first game at the end of regulation, and you should never blow a five point overtime lead. Woulda coulda shoulda though.
