I love having B ball on every night.

I am a bonafide Lakers Fan but the Celtics are playing with purpose. I am expecting a Spurs Celts final and hopefully next year the Lakers can beat up on everyone once Bynum comes back healthy and hopefully they sign Vujacic back too.

Agreed. That was a terrible foul.

The Cavs played great ball today and it doesnt hurt when LeBron goes OFF like that.

On a side note; i really do see Utah winning the West with their hardest matchup being the Spurs if they get through the suns.

I disagree, the Spurs handled them easily last year and their teams are virtually the same. I think they meet in the finals in the west, Spurs edge them out, but lose to the Celtics in the finals due to them being too exasperated with at least two 7-game series in their way.

How can you say they are the same? DWill is playing better this year, Okur has been an animal since the all-star break, and Boozer has gone off this year as well. Duncan is having one of his lesser years, and the age on the team is beginning to show. You think Spurs of old, especially last year would have let this suns team go to double OT at home? Hell no.

My Jazz played well tonight. Hopefully they can sweep the Rockets and look forward to the Lakers.

Well Phx beat them in San Antonio in game 4 last year so this doesn't really make much sense. And if you gonna look at it that way the Suns let the Spurs go into Dbl overtime. Phx led the enitre game on the scoreboard, and stat sheet. Phx blew that game

I, too, am enjoying the nightly NBA games especially since they play much harder in the playoffs.

I think that the Lakers or Jazz will win the West (although I wouldn't be surprised if the Spurs took the West again)and the Celtics will probably take the East otherwise it's down to the Cavs or Pistons. My opinions might change as the playoffs go on but right now, that's how I see it.

gotta take Phx in the west(def a little nutthugging), and actually in the east im taking Orlando as a possible dark horse. They looked great in game one, and have played both Detroit and Boston very well this year.
