About to tip off...

I've got Lakers-Bulls in the Finals, how about you?

I think it will be Heat-Lakers.

Rose has gotten away with at least 2 charges already, Granger looks like he did against us so far with that airball.

Call your bookie, because it's going to be the Thunder over the Bulls after 6 games.

That one block/layup sequence by Rose was EPIC!

Stuck at work for another several hours.

Totally conventional in my picks: Bulls/Lakers. Lakers in 6.

The Thunder are going to lose to the Nuggets.

Watching Rose play like this makes me want to get Kyrie Irving even more. Ultra quick Point Guards who can score and pass can absolutely dominate games in the no hand checking era.

You did not just put those two in the same sentence.

I like to cheer for the underdogs and small market teams, but now I just hope teams like Philly, Indiana, and Atlanta lose in the first round. I really want those teams to have a reason to blow up their roster.

I did, and for good reason; they're both ultra quick PGs who can score and pass. Rose is certainly much better right now and was a better prospect coming out, but it's close enough where comparisons aren't ridiculous.

I'm pissed I had work & missed the Bulls game. Heard it was intense. This Philly game is getting interesting. Is Iggy still out?

EDIT: Iggy is playing, nvm.

Iggy is a smart player. Guy is a leader out there & is making his teammates better/creating for them.

Rose was unbelievable. Definitely makes me want Irving more if that's possible.

Really impressed with Iggy today.

Two good games so far.

Magic might be the team to blow it all up this offseason. I'd be perfectly fine with a Love/Dwight PF/C duo.

Gotta give the Hawks credit for tearing the Magic apart today.

Dwight would force his way out. :wavefinger:
