Re: Around the NBA 9.0 (Playoffs Edition)
Knew the raps being home meant nothing
Ross sucks btw
Wish Raps could get a miracle win cause we would sweep them easily, they are so bad

Re: Around the NBA 9.0 (Playoffs Edition)
I'd say both teams are about the same in terms of overall strengths and weaknesses.
Why do you think they are playing game 7 if one team is significantly better than the other

Re: Around the NBA 9.0 (Playoffs Edition)
I agree but UD has no business starting this series. Who would he guard? Anderson? He obviously can't guard Williams, Johnson, or Pierce and Bosh will guard KG

They are going to make Lebron and Wade shoot, especially Wade
Our shooting has to be on point against the nets

Re: Around the NBA 9.0 (Playoffs Edition)
Nets pack the paint so much, they park there few players, need to work the refs so they would call 3 sec call
Please excuse my bad English, this is not my native language

Re: Around the NBA 9.0 (Playoffs Edition)
Well looks like we'll be playing the nets. How long has it been since we've beaten PP and Garnett in a playoff series? It's been too long

Re: Around the NBA 9.0 (Playoffs Edition)
My inner niceness is feeling uneasy about this idea.
Battier and Lewis have shown me NOTHING recently that remotely suggests that they are a better replacement than Haslem.

Since that 2012 ECF
Apart of me wants end their run because this is their last chance
Apart of me wants an easy ass 2nd round
Hopefully we can beat the nets in 5 tho, that would be amazing. I want a 2011 playoff run repeat in the east

Re: Around the NBA 9.0 (Playoffs Edition)
Regardless of the outcome of this garbage game, I want to see Psycho T go absolutely nuts on one of the Nets players, preferably KG or Plumly or Biatche or Teletobies

What are the chances Bird & KG get into a fistfight during the series?

Re: Around the NBA 9.0 (Playoffs Edition)
Whether the Raptors lose or not they did their part by taking the Nets to 7. KG playing 20+minutes with a double double and then having to play us Tuesday lol. Honestly LeBron can guard Joe 1v1 so I don't think we'll have the problems the Raptors have had.
