kevin garnett was playing at the 3 point line for a good 7 possession in a row in the 4th.
wtf was doc doing? then when he put him back in the post at the end, they started scoring again.

and when a guy is going off like joe johnson, how do you not just double him up to get it out of his hands?

Just another reason I see Kobe getting his 4th ring this season.

The West simply dominated the east this season, and have for a few years, even though miami and the pistons eek out a ring in the process, (both thought they had dynasty's in the making).

You are what your record says you are (dspite what IT thinks) the senerio that it would be simply more competitive if they go by record makes for a dismal season and even more less competitve playoffs. Im not sure why anyone would not appriciate the format and length of the first round when they were strecthing the 5 game series to 2 weeks anyway. teams were having almost 4 days of when the teams switch home courts. I dont exactly blame the players for the less then steller performences in this games, the playoffs are where coaches earn there keep, and donnie walsh's idea of waitng on guys to get knock off (particularly Avery and Sam mitch) to interview career 1st round losers, is another wake up story.

It's either going to be the lakers or San an to win it all, and it's going to be primarily base on adjustments from the coaching staff.

Man has anyone ever seen good teams get blown out so regularly in these playoffs? It's awful and quite disturbing. Overall as I said a few weeks back they have been bad.
