PrintYes, Mother's Day. What a great day to sit around, enjoy time with the fam, and watch good ol' playoff basketball. I was lucky enough to be able to have the Rockets-Lakers game on in the background while I ate my delicious lunch with my parents and brother. I didn't really get to follow much, but no matter. All I needed to see was
BIG UPS to the Rockets for "embarrassing" (anyone see that post game interview of Phil Jackson?) the Fakers and tying up the series. Did I mention that they did it without Yao Ming? Amazing!
Jump for some words on the Celtics-Magic.
A few hours later, I went out to dinner with some good friends. I started to constantly check my phone to see the score of the Celtics-Magic game but then soon got wrapped in the dinner conversation (who thought human interaction would actually be cool?)
Anyway, I checked my newly obtained Twitter account and I saw this.
DAVIS? seriously?
Thinking we had just got Baron Davis back. I seriously jumped out of my seat and started giving hugs to everyone around my table. I then looked back down at my Twitter feed and the same friend said,
"...always ready to shoot. I worked on that all day, everyday I work on that and that's what you see. HARD work." - big baby davis.
Oh..something must have happened in the Celtics game. Checked the score and...
Wow, unbelievable.
A few hours later, that same friend decided to hit me up and send me this YouTube video show me what the heck she was talking about.
Do I even need to make a joke here or is what he saying funny enough?
Along with this one....
Why does Mark Cuban sound like Cookie Monster?
Maybe we should put some serious consideration into that line up. Can you say...CHAMPIONSHIP!?!?!
Thanks for the info homie!
---------------------------------
Sums up my thoughts from today's games.
Cleveland Cavaliers at Atlanta Hawks, 4:00 PM on TNT
This is really all you need to know about this series, the Cavaliers, and LeBron James.
LeBron James has played 108 minutes in this year's playoffs and has scored 108 points.
How do you stop a man that scores a point in a minute? What kind of efficiency is that? (JAE..help me out here)
Like the Sopranos, THIS SERIES IS OVER.
Blog Battle: Fear the Sword (Cavaliers) vs Peachtree Hoops (Hawks)
Denver Nuggets at Dallas Mavericks, 6:30 PM on TNT
Still upset about that no-call (surprisingly on the defensive end) from Saturday? This might be the one time I side with the Mavericks, but that was a blatant foul. I have no idea why they let that slide...
Either way, this Mavs team can't bounce back from that game.
Like the Sopranos, THIS SERIES IS OVER. (Tell me someone gets that reference.)

I was definitely pleasantly surprised with the Rockets yesterday afternoon.
As for tonight, I think the Cavaliers will close out the series and the Mavericks will fight to play another day.

oh man
that kid get getting own3d by big baby after he hit the game winner was hilarious
lebron is a beast
I saw a stat saying he was leading in free throws attempted at 96. That’s insane when he has played the least amount of games compared to the other dudes on the list. Howard, Pierce, and Gasol round out the top 4. They’ve played 9, 11, 9 games, respectively. Lebron’s only played 7 games. I don’t think he has played very many minutes in the 4th quarters in most of the games.
This is Kristin Kreuk, now zip it. - GTTM
Of all the games I miss
I had to miss the unexpected Rockets win over the Lakers. I would have picked the Lakers yesterday, too.
Cavaliers @ Hawks: Sweep
Nuggets @ Mavericks: Mavericks
I give the Mavericks 1 game of being totally fired up after that noncall followed by the quick oops from the league, then losing it all back at Denver in Game 5.
Talk about overreacting
Orlando Magic fan demands apology from Boston Celtics’ Glen Davis
“Ernest Provetti (father of the kid who got bumped) told the Orlando Sentinel that he wrote the NBA office demanding an apology from Davis for acting like a “raging animal with no regard for fans’ personal safety.”"
I say this Ernest Provetti is acting like a sore loser. Had there been time on the clock and the Magic made their own game winning shot, he wouldn’t even care about the bump.
Back to back sweeps.
another double digit victory too. I feel bad for ATL.
Cavs get another long break until they face the Magic or the Celtics. I think we’ll get a better series if it’s the Celtics.

I don't feel bad for the Hawks
They were already inconsistent in the first round against the Heat. I expected the Cavs to overwhelm them.

Watching that noncall on that replay
I am reminded of something Thizz says about our Warriors: “Foul like MEN!”
Chuck thinks the Nuggets can actually take the Lakers out
I’m actually hoping Houston can pull off the miracle upset, but I sure hope Chuck is right if that is the WCF.
wow at denver
they are HUNGRY. They are coming out with the knockout punch here.
I hate the Nuggets
Except for Chauncey. They have a bunch of assholes on their team. But… I’ll sure be supporters of theirs if they play the Fakers in the next round.
Hopefully Jason Kidd will join a contender next year
And if it happens to be the Lakers and they win the title, I’d only be happy for Jason.
carmelo likes to fight
i cant remember who it was that he got into a fight with, JR smith was fighting too.
I'm gametime_gsw, and I approve this message.
These refs are terrible
there was no foul on Wright
that's bull$hit
Carmelo’s got Kobe type treatment on that “foul.” That was like Kobe’s elbow to Bibby in ’02, yet the receiver is called for the foul
Some guy at thedreamshake said
That the Rockets should trade T-Mac to be on our “sorry team” for Stephen Jackson.
If the Nuggets end up losing this game
They’ll know how we felt 2 years ago knowing we had the mavericks beaten and ready to be eliminated on their homecourt. Haha welcome to the club, nuggets
