Topic: 2011 NBA Playoffs

So, um, yeah. They started today...

Post who you want to win and stuff...
_{Do I make all the basketball threads?}

Since my Suns are not in it this year, I guess I'm pulling for the Mavericks.

The only thing Basketball I am interested in right now is if we still have a basketball team or if they are indeed moving to Anaheim.

I think the Kings are out of Sacramento. I just don't see them stopping the Maloofs at this point. Too far gone by now.

I like the Celtics, but I have a feeling they won't have enough to make it all the way.

^ Nah, Celtics will be champions this year despite all the trades and stuff. ^

I sure hope so. Rondo needs to start playing better for them to contend.

Yeah, they can all improve but most players do that come playoff time.

If the Celtics don't win this year, they ain't winning for a long time. KG, Pierce, and Allen are getting a little old for the NBA, and when they're done all the C's will really have is Rondo and Baby leftover. Trading Perk was the killer. The team's chemistry got screwed up after that.

Agreed, the trade was what really brought them down. They might be able to improve next year, it takes time for players to get used to their new teammates, plays, etc...

I don't see the Celtics making it to the finals. I think their window has closed.

I agree truthfully I never was a Kings fan I stopped watching basketball after the Bulls Dynasty, but its always sad to see a city lose its team especially since thats the only major pro team we have. Also it doesnt help that I have family working for them and if they move it means the unemployment line for them.

But yeah the Maloofs made up their minds months ago and theres no changing it even Kevin Johnson the mayor knows that. Last I heard hes looking for another way to bring a pro basketball team to Sac.

The Celtics are older, but I think that if they can start getting the chemistry back together, they're still the best team in the East. Chicago is too inexperienced and Miami lacks depth.

Miami Heat

How could you?

Go Blazers!

Lakers 3peat baby, It's gonna happen.

Go Spurs Go!

Looks like Grizzlies are close to upsetting the spurs Wolf. Best hope Spurs hang on.

I love that the Lakers lost Game 1!

Spurs and Lakers both lose game 1 lol. I hate that my Blazers lost game 1 but this makes me feel a bit better. Number 1 and number 2 seed in the west need to sweat a bit.

Gotta be more embarrassing for the Lakers and Spurs considering they are number 1 and 2 in the west lol
