NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
Some great games so far. I am a Laker fan fro the late 60s. Still am a Laker fan.
I also like the looks of the Thunder and the Heat. Many superstars on those teams should make this the most competitive playoffs in a long time.
Who is you favorite team?
Please everyone, do not bash any team or rlol member. Lets keep this a civil thread so it can stay here.

Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
Wow...the Lakers got their butts handed to them.
1 game down...come on Lakers!
Celtics dropped the first one too. Wow...and at home.

Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
I guess I am rooting for the Sixers. It is the only team from Pennsylvania I can stand(in the NFL, NHL, NBA anyway). And, I'd like to see the Clippers win the west, just because they have a history of sucking. Nothing against the Lakers, but they are competitive and in the playoffs almost every year. Will Lakers fans root for the Clippers if the Lakers are eliminated? Or is it like Chicago where you either like the Cubs or Sox?

Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
I'm a big Boston Celtics fan but have to admit that I'm surprised they made it this far. There key players are banged up but Garnett is playing like he did 10 years ago. I would guess it will be Miami and San Antonio with San Antonia taking it all. Can never count the Lakers out though.

Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
Hoping the Thunder get it done.

Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
And now the Heat lose a game at home?
Gonna be interesting to see what happens...

Looks like they just might.
Up 2 games to none now against the Lakers...wow!
-
Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
I'd have to say the lakers will win game three, but the series will be either a 5 or 6 game series with okc taking it. Hopefully the clippers will win this round of the playoffs

Mike Brown's a choke artist

Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
The Nuggets are my team, but as we have seen time and time again, they can't beat the Lakers.. so I always root for them and OKC.. as I know OKC will be in it for the long haul. I think OKC is a great young team, and deserves a ring!
I am thinking the finals will be OKC vs Heat.. and OKC in 6, but we shall see...

It maybe okc and the pacers, it would be a better game

Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
Lakers finally win one...yippeeeeeeee!
Heat lose again...woweeee.
Celts too.

Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
Well it was hard to watch the game tonight, sad to watch the lead drain out, but I could see it was going to go that way!!
-
Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
Wow the lakeshow is going the way I thought it would, go okc! I am sad that the clips haven't done better against the spurs, I guess I should be happy they made it to round 2. Go pacers, beat the heat. Ok on a serious note, I do like the lakers, I just hated the nonsense when they lost last year. For about three or four years I have liked the okc team, this year was a delight. I have been a clipper fan for about 8 years now, and was excited for them this year, hopefully their staff won't get rid of to many good players.
-
Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
The Lakers are getting old and slowing down. OKC is the new younger generation that is faster, healthier and has more stamina than the Lakers.
While I watch the Heat arguing with their coach and we see the celtics (again too old) give up big leads again to Indiana, things are much different nowadays in the NBA.
However, being the true Laker fan that I am, I am not counting out the Lakers just yet. OKC must win 1 more to move on, so I still have hope.
If the Lakers do not move to the next round, my money is on OKC to go all the way.
Go Lakers!
ps...the clippers are getting better but they must realize they must play as a team and not just a couple slamming jamming superstars.
-
Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
As a team the clippers are playing well, this is their first year with this cast, if they can keep the crew together who knows what the future holds, also Kobe seems to want to dominate his team where as Pau doesn't seem to want to dominate anyone
-
Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
Well...cya next year.
Congrats to OKC and Spurs for they are the best by far this year!

[QUOTE=Broilermaker;523086]Okc in 6[/QUOTE]
OK then...I'll take Spurs in 6.
-
Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
Spurs and OK should be a great match up. I think the Spurs will win the title. I was surprised the Lakers didn't have more fight in them but I'm glad I don't have to look at Ron Artest anymore.
-
Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
The Heat move on...ok
Now...who will they play?
Boston?
-
Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
Looks like the Thunder just might make a series out of it?
Boston better hurry or their series will be over quickly.
Anybody else watching?

I always thought it was a cool act when McHale traded him off to Boston so he would get his ring.

Good thing he got one in 2008. He won't get one this year.

Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
Boston is making a series out of this.
This is getting better day by day!

Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
Let's go thunder, poor okc has play against the other team and the refs, we may loose this next one but if we do it'l be all over in 7 one way or another

Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?

Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
And the next one is in okc! Since Parker likes to flop when he gets hit in the jaw, they ought to pop him hard enough so he won't have to flop, just saying, anyway we almost lost it but nope, 3 down one to go, go okc!

LOL ... Makes you wonder how many have taken Dramatic Acting Classes!
I think they can do it though ... home court advantage is a Big Plus!

Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
Congratulations OKC Thunder!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who's next? I want the Heat but they are going to have to win 2 in a row.
Pierce is the biggest flopper to ever play the game. Even when he gets bumped during his dribble, he swings his arms and moves his entire body as if he was hit by a truck.
I hope the NBA starts fining people who to crap like that. There is already talk about that happening.

Re: NBA Playoffs...who are you rooting for?
Glad to see the Thunder come back and win the west. Now need 4 more wins!

Paul Pierce has been 1 of the best players in the NBA for atleast 10 years and lets be real here. I know that you are a Lakers fan and obviously must hate the Celtics but take a look at Kobie. You get called for a foul if you are anywhere near him not to mention he takes 5 steps and doesn't get called for traveling. Lebron James is the biggest flopper there is in my opinion. Hate on the Celtics all you want but they are getting it done for a bunch of old guys.
[B]GO CELTICS!!!! GO PIERCE!!!
