THE PLAYOFFS WAIT FOR NO MAN!!
While I’m stuck here at work, the quest for Hoops Eliteness continues with 4 games tonight. And in 3 out of 4 cases, we may very well see the end of some first round action!

I think the Mavs
have that deer in the headlights look. They look like they have no sync, no rhythm, and the game is getting away from them.

Great tap out
by Tyson Chandler to get the offensive rebound and force the Mavs to foul. 5 pt game in 5.7 seconds, no way.

Rockets
If they are to pull it off tonight, I don’t think they should blow them out. Save some much needed energy for game 6. Energy Solutions lmao.

It all depends now on
how the Suns come out in the third quarter, whether they come out together, or deflated.

How about the Big Cactus?
Hack-a-Shaq is coming back to bite the Spurs. He’s making clutch free throws.

In the same way
Stockton and Malone kept running into Michael Jordan, the Suns kept running into the Spurs. Now it’s up to the Lakers or Celtics to beat the Spurs.

It's not as bad though
They met Jordan in the finals at least. Well, maybe not at least…to come that far and never win must hurt more lol.
I’m pretty sure the Lakers can take out the Spurs

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)
