    This BIF did not line up nicely for the Celtics.

    Looking like the 2nd half of this Grizz/Clips game is going to be entertaining. Hoping for a Game 7!

    Holy cow, this game is a street fight. Which it should be. I like when the refs pretty much swallow the whistle in game 7. Wish my Nuggets had received the same treatment.

    Feeling good about the Pacers' ability to compete with Miami after today, should be a good series Shag!

    I wonder if there has ever been a more injury filled playoffs than this year. This shit is ridiculous. I would say right now OKC is the runaway favorite, but I know if I said that, Durant will break his collarbone or something. Unreal.

    Minus the officiating (on both sides). Sooooooo many blatantly missed calls, and phantom fouls.

    So if you have 10 missed calls and 10 phantom fouls doesnt it balance? I only caught the last minute of the game (aka the best part) so I missed most of the fouls youre talking about :stuck_out_tongue:

    Sure, it balances, but it doesn't change the fact that it's terrible officiating. Call fouls that are fouls, and don't call fouls that didn't happen. Seems so simple, doesn't it? :wink:

    Also, Wade is lucky he didn't get tossed for bull rushing Collison (was it him or George Hill? can't remember). And that's all I'm gonna say about that.

    The issue is that Lebron has played about 83 minutes and has had 1 foul. No one is that clean. My team for the BIF is the heat but I'll root for the Pacers because they're my hometown team. Would love to send some beer out with this loss.

    Part of me can't believe the Bulls lost to the Sixers. The other part of me is glad I don't have to watch them lose to the Celtics.

    You are forgetting about my spurs. They haven't lost a game in the last month. Deeper than okc, plus leonard will be guard durant adequately. Spurs role players (splitter, diaw, captain jack, neal, green) as a starting five could beat the celtics, clippers, or philly.

    I just don't think San Antonio has the legs to keep up with OKC's up and down style. Would definitely be a great series though.

    Two problems exist for okc- 1)turnovers. They turnover the ball more than any other team in the league, worse than the bobcats. This will catch up with them.
    2) style pf play/matchups- san antonio plays identical to okc, only better. They were 2&3 in the league in scoring. Neither relies on inside scoring, but rather 3's and midrange shots from the pick and roll. The only playoff team who could have beat the spurs was memphis because the spurs are soft inside. Okc (and miami without bosh) does not get any offense from 8 feet in.

    Either way, okc and san antonio is the true nba finals (if miami does not get bosh back)
