I'm really looking forward to this Heat/Knicks matchup coming up next. Mike Bobby is gonna fuck someone up.

Nice flop by Lebron.

Lebron is such a wuss. He's the strongest player in the league and he's acting like he just got shivved.

The officiating in this game has been a disgrace.

Agree about the officiating. They're seriously pro Miami. Lebron is flopping any time he is touched, and the dumb ass refs are falling for it.

Car accident. His career is over now. Day is getting worse.

This Pacers/Magic is the best of the day so far. I can't believe the Magic have been this competitive. I figured this was the most obvious first round sweep pick.

Danny Granger: Big time choke right there.

Love seeing the Pacers choke, I hope the Magic kick the crap out of them.

Huge game winning shot by Durant.

Mavs played much better than I expected. This might be a really good series!

Spurs need to get off on the right foot this morning. Utah and their frontline certainly won't be a pushover though.

Spurs looking much more SOLID than Oklahoma City is right now.

Post subject:  Re: 2012 NBA Playoffs Thread
Oklahoma City seems like a team that is not going to do well with the bulleyes on their back. Even though they are the 2 seed it seems like most everyone expects them to come out of the West. Will be interesting to see how they do with that type of pressure on them.

It'll be interesting to see exactly what "limited" means tonight in regards to Chris Paul.

Lakers/Thunder could be great in the 2nd round. If its that and SA/Mem that's about as up in the air as I can remember.

Besides Dallas/OKC not a fun first round so far. I have high hopes for the next two games though.

Celtics just getting worked.

They're afraid of seeing JLIII next round.

Does anyone believe that Rondo didn't mean to chest bump the official?

Not a chance! He's going to be suspended for Game 2 of that Hawks' series, and quite possibly Game 3 when the scene shifts to Boston. Rajon Rondo can't lose his poise like that! His Celtics played like horsecrap in Game 1 last night to the Hawks in Atlanta and he made a bad situation worse! C'MON MAN!!!

He'll be suspended for a game.
Author:  Douchebag [ Mon Apr 30, 2012 9:51 am ]
Post subject:  Re: 2012 NBA Playoffs Thread
If Rondo isn't suspended, you can declare the fix is in. The league will desperately want a Boston/Miami ECF, now that Chicago doesn't really stand a chance against Miami. ESPN was all but declaring that Boston and Miami will square off on Saturday after the Rose injury was announced, which is ridiculous since Boston hadn't even played a game yet, and they probably won't even beat Atlanta, or the Bulls if the make it to the 2nd round.

He probably will, but I think 2 games might be more appropriate for Rajon Rondo. He angrily threw a ball towards an official during the 66-game regular season, and also got a 2-game suspension, TP. There was nothing accidental about what Rondo did late in Game 1.

I'm not sure what's worse, the fact that you said verbatim what Mike Greenberg said this morning or the fact that I know this.

I don't listen to Mike & Mike, but even Greeny can be right once in awhile.

ESPN desperately wants that matchup since they have exclusive rights to all the ECF games. Magic, Jon Barry, and Chris Broussard all said Boston has an easy path to the ECF's now. :lol: :roll: :lol:

I hear you SHARK. I just don't think they'll suspend him for 2 games in the playoffs.

It's that kind of talk by the national "talking heads" that has Coach Thibs motivating his troops now that DRose is out the rest of the way.

Besides, I'm still reminded what ESPN/ABC's Mike Tirico said to ESPN Radio 1000's "Waddle & Silvy" before the NBA Playoffs. Tirico said about 2 weeks ago about "a playoff outcome we least expect", especially with the shortened schedule.

Also, I read this morning the Knicks' Jeremy Lin might actually play in Game 4 vs. the Heat Sunday in New York. It's far from a sure thing as Lin tries to return from knee surgery of his own, but it's something to keep an eye on. It might be too little, too late if the Knicks don't find a way to steal a game or two vs. the big, bad Heat...

I think Rondo will be suspended 1 game but I still think Boston wins the series.
