go Celtics
-
should be a great series.
i'm rooting for the Magic because i love my man Dwight & i'm a huge Duke fan, so i gotta show my boy JJ some love. :P
-
Celtics showed a lot of heart this series but they're not good enough to beat the Magic.

i would love a rematch with the celts but i think orlando might win, but hey no one expected the celts to beat the cavs so u never know....

magic are going to smoke the celtics, magic actually have a great leader that has his team focused

gooo celtics!

Yeah but even though the Cavs have great depth the Magic are even more stacked. Nelson, Carter, Lewis, and Howard in a starting lineup is a lot to deal with.

we beat orlando in 5 last year, this year might be 7 but we'll do it again...... ;)

This Magic team is playing unbeatable Basketball right now. If they keep it up, not only will they (easily) handle the Celtics, but they'll be the champions.

I didn't say they were gonna beat LA ;)

I don't think Vince Carter has the guts to co-lead a team to a championship. They are also making the mistake of rarely using Howard offensively. Of course, as long as them shooter niggas keep hitting shots, it's better and looks cooler and more skillful. But you can't rely on them niggas shooting. There will be games when they gon' suck at shooting and then they won't know how to get the ball to Howard correctly and therefore lose games.
-
i cant stand celtics, i hope they lose....
-
celtricks in 6
-
Celtics in 7.
-
Not sure, When in doubt I bet on the vet's.
These young teams choke & can't stand the pressure.
I'm gonna say, Celts in 6

lmao

Will Boston shut me up in game 1. Almost blew a big lead though.
-
Boston will win in 6. Magic came back, but not enough. I think Boston will win in 6, because game 7 is in Orlando and IF, IF, it goes 7 then Orlando will win.
Lakers/Celtics 12, KOBE'S REVENGE
-
Celtics almost blew that shit; i see this one going seven. 8)
-
Celtics are playing out of their mind right now, I still see ORL winning the series though.
-
celtics are looking good, i dont think lakers or phoenix can take them....their team is too deep
-
Suns - Celtics finals would be sweet.

Not for David Stern.

Howard lack of offensive skills is still pathetic when you throw a good frontline at him , I know it's not easy to develop offensive moves when you don't have them naturally but still I havent seen any improvments from him
-

lmao, i thought u hated them and hoped they lose lmao...
-
this series is over.
Magic down 0-2, dropping both at home & now heading to Boston; it's a wrap.
let's go Suns because i love Steve Nash, but we're going to have a Lakers/Celtics Finals.
-
for the last 3-4 years people been sayin that cleveland & orlando belong in the elite category but as i watch this series i believe that the lakers & celtics are the best 2 teams in the league when healthy bar none....orlando is gettin beat the same exact way the lakers beat them last year in the finals, i can't wait for the rematch with them...as far as the nuns go lmao, amare saying that odom had a lucky game is the biggest mistake he's made so far cause now odom gonna school him good on keeping that mouth shut... ;)

CELTICS NIGGA

rondo is gonna fuck fisher UP

rondo is gonna fuck fisher UP
well see nigga....we fuckin them up on site this time

rondo is gonna fuck fisher UP
LOL... Fisher is a point guard with 4 titles and tons of clutch shooting. Rondo has the edge, but until you beat the man (in 2008 Rondo/Fisher was a push, not Rondo winning the match) you can't assume your going to fuck him up. There are other match ups that are important. Kobe vs. Allen, Pierce vs. Artest, Gasol vs. Garnett, Bynum vs. Perkins. It's about match ups, and unlike last time, the Lakers have some good ones. Last time we had Rad on Pierce, and what ended up happening was we ended up putting Kobe on Pierce, and then Sasha gained a ton more minutes, on top of that no Bynum allowed for Gasol to get eaten by Perkins and then Odom was faced up against KG in his prime. Once you broke down the match ups, the Celtics were at a huge advantage. The match ups this time are more even, and it will be a great series. I see a 7 game series with it coming to the Staples Center.

lakers in 7 in the toughest series the lakers will face & an instant classic

Boston will win in 6. Magic came back, but not enough. I think Boston will win in 6, because game 7 is in Orlando and IF, IF, it goes 7 then Orlando will win.
Lakers/Celtics 12, KOBE'S REVENGE
Damn, only one that picked Celtics in less than 7 games, and even now I'm thinking I was too kind to the Magic. We'll see.

Lmao...nigga u will see the difference this time...
-
yeah - the difference at how Rondo will dominate with triple doubles vs Fisher
and that Pierce will once again rise up and handle Kobe
-
Celtics will win it all, lakers will all disappoint except for kobe and perhaps gasol.

Dude, Pierce will not be covered by Kobe, Pierce will not be covered by Radmanovic, Pierce will be covered by Ron Artest. Last time, it was Sashaand Radmanovic helping Kobe cover Pierce and Allen. Basically whoever Kobe didn't cover was going to go for a ton of point. Now we have Artest exactly for this reason, to help Kobe cover on the wing when you have a team with a legit 2 and 3. Ariza was not there in 2008 to help Kobe cover Pierce and Allen, but this time Kobe has that help.

nah homeboy artest will handle pierce this time, rondo might get fisher yea but kobe will handle ray allen betta this time & we'll have bynum this time even at 75% healthy he will make a difference inside...peep game nigga
-
andrew bumknee?
i'm sure Kevin Garnett is just shaking in his pants
-
andrew bumknee?
i'm sure Kevin Garnett is just shaking in his pants
let's just say that garnett is one good hit away from going back to the injury list again nigga lol, then we'll be even......nah but we fuckin them up on site this time by any means neccesary peep game homeboy....
-
we fucked up the heat
we fucked up the Cavs
we're in the process of fucking up the Magic
i see a trend
the Celtics have beat a team with 61 wins...a team with 57 wins is no problem
-
Kobe will guard Rondo , Fish will check Ray-Ray and Artest going to lock Paulina the fuck up ... Gasol is a different player than he was in 08 , same for LO ... and we have HCA
As Pac says " revenge is the sweetest joy next to getting pussy" 8)

come on nigga, yea u fuckin up the magic & the cavarettes cause that's all there is to fuck up in the east lol....lemme ask u this homie who is the champs at the moment? i wanna see u write it here....besides cleveland is easy to figure out they overrated & have a very one dimensional offensive style that goes thru lebum.....the heat lmao i wont even go there, i feel bad for d-wade, the magic is the only worthwhile mention here...you must be stuck in 2008 still i guess though, i feel bad for u son ;)

nah kobe aint as dumb as lebum is, he aint gonna guard that lil rat rondo.....
-
oh and guys...remember that KG's knee's are fine :D
-
i can't wait for game 3
-
Damn, this looks like Celtics in 4. Great games.
-
As I said, Carter is just not tough enough. With the game on the line, the nigga gon' slip. He won many games with crazy good fade away 3pt and what not, but that were meaningless regular season games and shit. The nigga isn't built for this shit.
Also look how they fucked up the time-out and the following last possession. This team ain't built to beat a team as good as them.
I'm suprised if Boston doesn't sweep them.
Way too many sweeps this year.
-
IMO, Most young NBA player's don't have the Heart it takes in crunch...
You can see their body language, Just like in the Cavs series. (They quit!)
-
i said early in the year, i didn't like the Magic getting rid of Hedo, he was their boy.
now look at them. :-X
-
Carter shots selection this year may have been the most stupid I've ever seen ... the guy bricks 5-6 fadeaways/long jumpers in a row , what's he's doing next ? keep taking the exact same shots instead of attacking the rim
-
This series is done. Game 3....Celtics with a 28 pt lead heading into the 4th quarter. Theyre just fuckin killin the Magic this series.
-
Complete blow from start to finish........ Orlando's done.
Celtics/Lakers will be another great series. Whoever wins first road game will take the title. I'm liking Celtics chances.
-
thanks for playing Orlando
-
If the Celtics pull out a championship THIS year, I think it will be more impressive than 2 years ago. Mainly because of their seeding and their regular season. Because of their seed....they will have gone through the Cavs, the Magic...and if they win the title, more than likely the Lakers. Thats the #1, #2, and #3 teams in the league this year.

The nigga ain't tough enough. After Howard or someone else knocks him on the ass, he ain't going to the rim no more. Everything is gravy as long as he can dunk on soft niggas of course. Once the games get serious, this nigga becomes worthless

i think the celtics have the personnel to play even better defense than they did 2 years ago
the big 3 are 99% as good as they were back in '08 and Rondo and Perkins are far improved. plus Rasheed fills in a void that big man that Leon Powe left.

It will be a good series no matter what. Me being a Spurs fan...other then seeing my team in the finals, I think this is the best matchup top to bottom. The Suns have some glaring weaknesses. We were lucky enough to run into them when they were fuckin on fire from three. They couldnt missed it seemed like. But the Celtics would exploit their weaknesses the way the Lakers are. And the Magic were on a roll...but this series has made them look somewhat soft. I would expect this Lakers vs Celtics finals to be one of the better finals all time. Id be surprised if it doesnt go 7.
-
Here are the main differences I see between now and 2 years ago
Boston
- Rondo is a much better player , his all around effort is just incredible during these playoffs
- Perkins has probably become the best 1 on 1 post up defender in the league..
- The BIG 3 is clearly not as good as it was.
- their bench is weaker , yes Big Baby is a serviceable player , T. Allen brought some D intensity but Sheed is very up and down and they lack the D and veteran play of a Posey and PJ Brown , as well as House shooting
Lakers
- Pierce won't be defended by Radmanovic or Walton but by Artest , that's quite a difference lol
- Bynum obviously ... he will have to stay on the floor because Pau vs KG and Drew vs Pekins are much more favorable matchups than LO vs KG and Perk vs Gasol imo
- Kobe has developed a great post up game and both Allen won't be able to defend it one on one.. no more Posey and if they put Pierce on Kobe to take it away , Ron will abuse Ray in the post ..
-
and there are 2 keys players of this potential Finals imo ;on one side if Rondo maintains this incredible level of play , C's will be hard to beat , on the other side will Gasol be at his usual level ( which is higher than 2 years ago) or play like a pussy as he did in the 2008 Finals ...
The revenge factor has to be taken into consideration aswell , Game 6 debacle , Gasol and LO being physically destroyed , the whole team being labeled as soft ... we are more experienced , tougher than 2 years ago and it's time to prove it and redeem ourselves

1-the Big 3 are all healthy...KG is beasting
2-It's been 2 years but I'm pretty damn sure I recall PP guarding Kobe in the finals and Pierce was the best player of the finals.
3-Bynum is irrelevant unless he's one on one vs Big Baby lol
-
Pierce did a pretty good job on Kobe but it wasn't 1 on 1 D , Celtics zoned him up and forced others Lakers to score .. what they oviously did not ... plus there was Posey on Kobe a lot aswell
you cannot put Pierce on Kobe now , if you do it , Artest will bully Ray in the post

like how Rondo would bully Fisher all day? ;)
or how Perk would bully Bumknee?
-
so much for that sweep....but at the same time this means more NBA for me to watch
confident we'll take this in orlando
-
Good game by Orlando....3-1
-
3-2 classic.
-
They're in Boston tonight; if the Celtics can;t end it, they'll be in trouble.
-
we got it :D
