Jigga Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 What the is wrong with the Pistons? Don't they realize that they need to actually WIN the games in order to advance to the next round?relax jigga. they'll turn it on when they need to and pull out the series. just like they did last year in the conference finals... That's the exact attitude I'm lamenting. I truly believe that Flip and the players think this way. On January 16, 2013 at 3:49 PM, NJTank said: Btw this is old hat for Notre Dame.

DarkJourney Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Detroit will win the next 3 games. But I also picked the Suns to win the NBA Championship. Go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the exact attitude I'm lamenting. I truly believe that Flip and the players think this way.they've had that attitude since they won the title back in '04 and you can tell by the way they play. its hard to watch when you know that is whats goin on. what makes it worse is that i can't watch any of the games here (don't have cable AND i live in cincy) so i get to hear it from the cavalier bandwagon that i work with.

Nick 1733 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 The Nuggets are DONE! They can't play defense, they're playing like it's just a formality, it's sick. Also looks like George Karl's job is on the ropes now.Melo, Iverson, K-Mart, Camby and still 8th in the conference... It's not the talent, it's the coaching. They should be MUCH better than this.

Seadragon76 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I wonder if any people here laughed at me for saying Atlanta will take a game from Boston at home...Well, it looks like I'm pretty damn smart for saying this as the Hawks are beating down the C's by 15. Seriously, I was trying to be nice to the Hawk fans in saying that. I didn't think Atlanta would take the home court edge and crack Boston upside the head.

It's also real funny how the shot clocks mysteriously stopped working at halftime and they left the -ing Hawks PA guy to announce the shot clock. What a pile of crap the NBA can be. I'm sorry, but this is just absolutely ridiculous.I also didn't see the Hawks not missing one shot the whole god damn game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's good that the Celtics lost one early, we didn't want them to go 15-0, then lose 4 straight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The MAN!GO HAWKS GO!Okay, but the dude was calling the Celtics clock slow on at least one important occasion. That or the refs deliberately screwed us, which wouldn't surprise me in the least.I understand the Hawks shot lights out. I understand the Celtics played like 80 year-old . I also understand, though, that there were quite a few absurd unfair advantages to the Hawks side. I'm not worried whalersjets, just pissed and frustrated about everything. Oh and Drew you might wanna tell your man Horford that taunting Paul Pierce isn't exactly the smartest thing to do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rams80 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Just curious, could the officiating be any more skewed towards the Lakers right now?Oh, hush. That's just the homer in you screaming out loud.If your team was ever interested in playing defense, then you could bitch about refs. The Nuggets never had a snowball's chance in hell against the Lakers at Staples. You should put all your pent up, misguided, and irrational fanboy lunatic raving into helping them play defense. They need all the help they can get Hell, you'd just better put all that energy in helping them not get swept.The officiating was HORRID at the end of the game last night.I'm fully aware that the Nuggets need to play some freakin' defense to have a shot.I just hate NBA officiating in general, it's the worst in all of sports.No...the Arena Football League's refs have that market cornered.More specifically af2 refs"By rule, I am incompetent."

TFoA Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Just got back from Game 3. All I can say is, it's been a long time coming. That was probably the most electrified crowd I've seen in Philips Arena. I'm pretty sure that I wasn't the only one who went to the arena pulling for the Hawks knowing good and well that people gave them absolutely no chance to win. But they did it. They avoided the sweep. I could really care less about the rest of the series, all I know is, 98% of you guys picked the Celtics in a sweep. Guess what? You. Were.This at least means that the Celtics will NOT celebrate a round victory on our home court. Our guys came out with a passion. They really made the Celtics look old. Josh Smith especially made the Celtics look old. I really should've informed you guys that the Hawks are a completely different team at home than on the road. The next home game will be a fight, and I fully expect that the Celtics are going to give their best shot now that they know that the Hawks CAN hang with them. But I also expect the Hawks to actually play with a little swagger, and Horford flustering Pierce is more of a statement, saying "We're here. Get ready for a fight."I still don't expect the Hawks to win. I'm just saying that the Celtics better be ready for a fight. They just got smacked in the mouth. Let's see how they respond.EDIT: and LOL at the ludicrous statement that the refs were screwing Boston. Really? For the first 3 quarters, if Garnett was breathed on, a foul was called. Them finally calling Ray Allen for kneeing someone in the chest for a layup was the turning point as far as the refs were concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
