I don't know why but I always felt like the drop off for Kevin Garnett's skills was going to be really quick and steep when it happened and I almost wonder if it already isn't starting.

The 2011 Celtics remind me a lot of the Pistons for about 5 years after that last championship. Same crew every year, just one year older and there was just this certainty that even though they were going to win a good amount of regular season games and get in to the playoffs, they were still never going to win another championship. There is a lot of supposed "superstar" on that Celtic team that is finishing out games with 10 or less points while collecting huge salaries.

The Bulls have a heck of a strength and conditioning program. All those guys looked ripped and strong last night even while losing. Noah doesn't look anything like the skinny kid that played at Florida.

Granted, I haven't watched a ton of Celtics games, but Garnett looks like nothing more than a role player to me. A spot-up shooter who plays good, not great, defense.

Lakers v Celtics in the finals again. Kobe gets ring 6 and Phil gets his fourth three peat.

who would have thought both those teams would be down 0-2 in their matchups?

at least the Celtics are going home, the Lakers just dropped 2 games in their building and are headed to Dallas.

The Lakers could very well get swept. Kobe's hurt, Gasol is a weeping gash, and nobody seems to want to step up.

Cerdo · « **Reply #104 on:** May 05, 2011, 10:30:45 PM »

Right about now though is when the Lakers then all step up and play hard. A desperate Laker team is a tough deal to kill.

The Commish isnt going to like a OKC/MEM/DAL coming out of the west. I expect Tim Donaghey to be on the court in Dallas.

I thought the same thing. But now there's no way they come back from 3 games down. Oooor is there?

But look on the bright side, it should give Kobe extra time for practice.

no heart heat are going to lose game four as well. they'll fold like a cheap tent when that happens. james has the heart of an amoeba. he's a quitter.

Cerdo · « **Reply #117 on:** May 07, 2011, 10:09:32 PM »

I don't think the Heat will lose the series but man, if they DID collapse, holy crap! Lebron James would be a marked man, maybe forever.

I can't believe that Rondo came back from that elbow injury. Unreal.

Jason Terry is 6/7 from 3pt. Dallas Bench has 40 points. Team is hitting 11/15 from 3.

yeah, Lakers are getting crushed.

somewhere, a raccoon is getting kicked, possibly molested.

Well I think that 3 putting them up 27 may have iced it.
