April 28, 201016 yr Author I just hope the Bulls can add a big time marquee piece this summer and really be a threat next year. Everyone freaking out about Los Angeles, they come out and shoot 70 percent in the 1st quarter. shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :lol:
April 28, 201016 yr You can look at a lot of calls in the 4th quarter of the Cavs game. It makes it hard to remember why I watch and I want the Cavs to win the title. Come on SSC....It's all good as long as the calls go the Cavs way.:thumb: What happened to LeBron's arm? Is this an old injury or a new one no one knows about?Is he going to Paul Pierce this injury?:popcorn: I heard them say on NBATV tonight that he had been having elbow problems at the end of the regular season. He also took a spill in game 4. And knowing LeBron he'll probably but Paul Pierce's injury act to shame. I just hope the Bulls can add a big time marquee piece this summer and really be a threat next year. Everyone freaking out about Los Angeles, they come out and shoot 70 percent in the 1st quarter. shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :lol: The Lakers have been scary good tonight. I don't know if they can play like that consistently, but I don't know if I think any team can beat them when they play like they have tonight.
April 28, 201016 yr Seems L.A has flipped the switch, for tonight anyway. I hope OKC can win game 6 and atleast give good drama and make it go 7.
April 28, 201016 yr Now this is the LA team that won it all last year!! Maybe those 2 losses were enough to light the fire under their you know what.
April 28, 201016 yr Author Every series in the West will be 3-2 and with the exception of that goofy Hawks/Bucks series, the East 1st round is over.
April 28, 201016 yr Biggest difference in this game, Kobe Bryant is guarding Westbrook. I thought it was intensity. OKC is very young. I never thought they had a chance last night.
April 28, 201016 yr Biggest difference in this game, Kobe Bryant is guarding Westbrook. That ties with Bynum catching the ball right at the basket IMO. Kobe on Westbrook made a huge difference. Let's face it though last night proved that LA should and probably will win this series. OKC would have a great shot at taking down any other team in the West, but they don't have the experience to counter Kobe or the inside strength to stop Bynum and Gasol. However I think I'm going to take the winner of the Spurs-Mavs series to win the West, especially if the Spurs win that series. But if the Cavs make the finals I want the Lakers, I just don't think Gasol and Bynum are consistent enough to carry them there with a Kobe that's less than 100%.
April 28, 201016 yr I thought it was intensity. OKC is very young. I never thought they had a chance last night. LA made OKC look like a HS JV team for much of the game. They (OKC) are still a ways a way from being a major player in the West IMO, but that talent is going to get them there pretty soon.

These playoff reps against the defending champs will make them contenders next year depeniding on who they pick up. LA and SA aren't getting younger. OKC will be better than Dallas and Denver next year IMO. This offseason will be interesting in many ways. OKC is one of the most interesting storylines IMO.

They have to get Bosh or at least David Lee this offseason though. Bosh would be possible for that lottery pick and a player or two via sign and trade IMO. At worst they could give up both lottery picks, which would be a pretty decent trade off for Bosh IMO. But, who knows where Bosh will want to go?

From a selfish perspective I'd love to see them draft Orton and Bledsoe. I don't think they're players in the Bosh/Amare/Joe Johnson sweepstakes.
April 28, 201016 yr From a selfish perspective I'd love to see them draft Orton and Bledsoe. I don't think they're players in the Bosh/Amare/Joe Johnson sweepstakes. I'll go ahead and say they're not players in the Amare or Johnson sweepstakes, because I believe if Amare leaves he's going to the East. And they just probably wouldn't want Johnson as he doesn't fill a need. Bosh is interesting though. It's been rumored that they might possibly pursue him. Without some quality size on the inside I don't know how much of a contender the Thunder can be next year. I think David Lee is the likeliest FA signing they could do though.

Good call.
