OPEN THREAD: Day 4 of the 2k8 NBA Playoffs
And I thought I loved this game!
Interesting little trifecta of games we have this evening. As the Round 1 madness continues, it would appear that most everything is going according to plan (seedwise). Let’s break down tonight’s events shall we? JUMP!
G2: (6) Toronto Raptors @ (3) Orlando Magic (Magic lead by 1 game) The reign of terror continues for the Magic as Howard lifts the Magic over Toronto to head down to Canada 2 and 0. G2: (7) Dallas Mavericks @ (2) New Orleans Hornets (Hornets lead by 1 game) Are the Mavs going to become the next Rockets (can’t make it to the second round?) Survey saaaaaaays. Yes! Hornets by 5. G2: (6) Phoenix Suns @ (3) San Antonio Spurs (Spurs lead by 1 game) Phoenix is going to bounce back hard from Saturday’s epic double overtime battle and steal this one in the Spurs’ house. Post your Golden Picks and any playoff game thoughts in the comments.

Hmm
How come the text is unusually small?
Magic defends homecourt.
I think Hornets will to.
I say Suns win game 2.

So how’s Dallas doing against New Orleans? On the scoreboard, it looks like they ran into another buzzsaw.

They can’t stop anybody. They shot 62% int he first half. Half way into the 3rd, it looks like they’re shooting 121%.

I'm wondering if I should stop watching basketball.
The winners and losers are really decided by the officials.

Remember what Eva Longoria said?
She spilled the beans on how Tony Parker sometimes stays down to act hurt to get the foul or flagrant foul call. Shaq should run into Tony Parker more often.

I'll openly admit I hate all things that are Boston sports, but with Powe (Oakland Tech + Cal), Eddie House (Hayward High), and Paul Pierce (born in Oakland) the Celtics have enough Bay Area ties to make me root for them to beat the Lakers in this year's finals.
By the way aren't you glad the Warriors selected Kosta Perovic instead of local favorite and role model Powe? No comment.](http://cdn2.sbnation.com/fan_shot_images/6424/default_small.jpg)
