Can you imagine a GS/Dallas and Washingon/C's 1st rounds?

THAT would be strange.

the other day before the first matchup the wizards said they had learnt alot on how to match up with the celtics based on the way the bobcats played them and they wanted to take that into their matchup

low and behold 2-0 against them now

i have said all season the celts are overrated. I think they are a great team and gonna compete in the eastern finals for sure, but nothing beyond that is guaranteed

It's actually a bit like why the Suns have more trouble than they did before: most teams didn't know what to do with Nash and Stoudemire.

Of course, really good F.O./coaching organizations take the time to figure it out sooner than others; I guess kudos to Washington and Charlotte for doing that.

I think it's what most have said: Every team has it's flaws and people are figuring out how to stop them. Even teams like San Antonio, the Lakers in the early 2000's and the Bulls etc had holes in the armour, except those teams were too good at what they did to be affected by these flaws

*Edited for mkot's sake* :lol:

Don't worry mate, my bad! Was a slight racial slur, didn't realise I'd done it until it was too late and the joke had to be told...

I'm assuming what was said above was "chink in their armor" ?

its a normal phrase... depicting weakness.. achilles heel... well in Australia and UK I assume its very common phrase.

Anyways, Wizards do seem to give Celtics trouble. Everyone else gets blown out by Celtics... but Wizards and to an extent... Cats.. hang on well.

Its not the front court.... its definitely the 2/3 positions... funnily its where Ray Allen and Paul Pierce plays. maybe the 1 spot?

I think the C spot is their biggest hole, Perkins is a big body and nothing else. I truly thought when left to concentrate on blocking shots and rebounding he'd excel, and put up 8-8-2, but he isn't.
