sigh. Hawks were a little too young to win one on the road. someone will win in boston eventually and when they do the celtics will be in trouble.

real classy for KG to make the throat-slitting gesture. wahoo, dude, you've been a "superstar" in the league 12 years and made it out of the first round for... the second time! loser.

Hawks are young, no one expected them to win a game let alone three. They put up a fight and created a buzz, what more could you ask for?

KG has not been very classy this year in particular. Great player and great intensity but with that being said I hope King James hands Boston their asses.

Anybody betting on Boston to represent the East should keep in mind Pierce, KG and Allen are three perinneal losers and that will not change this yr with them leading the way in the post season.
JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.

Orlando got screwed by the refs and the timekeeper.

New Orleans is making it look easy against the Spurs.

Simply ridiculous they don't have a system in place to make a more accurate judgement. If I hear one more time the refs can't look at video replay, I'm going to lose it. What kind of league is Stern running? Anybody who saw that in real time knows Billups didn't get the shoe off and it gave the Pistons a little edge going into the 4rth.

I've never seen a player like CP3 before he's even more unique than Isiah Thomas. A truly once in a generation type talent.

Did anyone just see CP3 tell David West.."What Are You Doing FuKK Horry" after West got a T for shoving Horry to the floor? WOW what a take charge leader.

I didn't think there was any chance he got that shot off in 5 seconds. I'm just trying to figure out where the refs got .5 seconds on the clock with the shot good. It was like the knew they were screwing the Magic so they decided to throw them a bone and give them just enough time to catch and shoot. There obviously wasn't a chance in hell that the Pistons inbounded the ball, dribbled it up court, penetrated, kicked out to Billups, got that shot off and made the 3 pointer all in under 5 seconds and with time remaining for the Magic to have a possession.

The Magic should protest that game. Just like that game in Atlanta earlier this year with the Heat was for a time clock malfunction.

He obviously watched the Spurs-Suns series last year.

I hate Javie too because he's always involved in shady game calling, he was one of the refs on crew who called the most horrific playoff game in history when the Kings played the Lakers in 2003 giving the Lakers like 23-26FTA in a 4rth qrt.

That play could never been completed successfully and as you said Stuckey had the nerve to get a pass from Billups, dribble, penetrate, go up for a shot, fake it, and kick out to Billups. That in of itself at least took 3sec. Javie didn't even give SVG a logical explanation other than "Hey we can't look at the video and we already called it good".

WOW Javie and his crew came to the reasoning they guestimated how much time the play took and they came to 4.6sec.

That's embarrassing and this is the very reason why fans feel the game is fixed. The game means so much at this point, so much is at stake and they make a decision by compounding a human error with another human error. Unreal.

What is Lebron now, 2 of 16, 4 fouls and about 10 turnovers?

Maybe it does make sense that he's a Knick in 2010.

Rip Hamilton has to be one of the most under rated players of all time in the NBA and especially at playoff crunch time.
