True, but the method in which they get there is what fuels the media.

thats why i avoid most/all media during the playoffs

And another reason they should keep their mouths shut is because, after the season is over, I don't think the NBA can force Sterling to pay salary, it is still his money, and if he's going to go through a long litigation process over ownership, he's going to cut salary from that roster and go under the cap by a large margin. So they should be thankful for every game that is left of them together. In just one offseason they can be back to being the second best team in LA.

We'll be better prepared for it. Last year was our first time we actually swept a playoff series in the LeBron, Wade, Bosh era & obviously we were bound to be rusty...This year rest is GREAT. We're the oldest team (stats) wise & these guys have a lot of mileage on them. 3 straight finals and trying to attempt 4 isn't easy at all & no matter how much I miss watching HEAT basketball (It's been a dreadful week) this is for the better of everybody trust

From yesterday:

''We guarantee it,'' Blatche said after Friday's game. ''We're gonna go there (Sunday), take care of business and go to Miami.''


Blatche's guarantee wasn't welcomed by the Raptors.

''Who does he think he is?'' Toronto guard Greivis Vasquez asked after the Raptors practiced Saturday. ''He's not KG or Paul Pierce or Jason Kidd. We're not going to listen to his nonsense.''


''I think our momentum will carry over,'' Blatche said. ''I think we found the recipe.''

Guard Shaun Livingston agreed, pointing to the fact that the Nets beat the Raptors on the road in Game 1.

''We kind of found a structure that works for us,'' Livingston said. ''Our confidence is high. We know we can go into that building and get a win. I think we're built for that.''


LOL

''Yeah, man,'' DeRozan said. ''We ain't got not 100 million payroll or whatever they got. That's all on them. At the end of the day, they have more to lose than us.''

Going to root for the Raptors just to see a team I want to see win game 7 to win for the first time in this year's playoffs and to receive a potential hail of And1s from UnderdogRaptors later in the day 8-)

Y'know, I don't know why defenders put their hand in Paul Pierce's face. His jumper is money when there's a hand in his face

Paul Pierce is so damn good... and i hate him so much...
A winner is someone who recognizes his God- given talents, works his tail off to develop them into skills, and uses these skills to accomplish his goals.

As much as I hate Pierce, the man is clutch.

If we play Toronto, I want Wade on Lowry and Lebron on Derozan. Chalmers can guard Ross since he's crappy
