Not as much at the Raps are!!

Howard goes for 20/20 in back to back playoff games for the 1st time in a zillion years!!

i dont know... i think what paul is doing to the mavs is more impressive than what howard is doing to the raps.... but both players are dominating.

He's being guarded by Kidd the majority of the game.

Paul is definitely more impressive to me because the effect Paul has on the game comes mostly from his basketball IQ. Howard being such a physical specimen and dominating the Raptors because they are as soft as tissue paper isn't quite on the same level.

They've tried Terry, they've tried trapping, they've tried pretty much everything, they simply can't stop him.

i am loving this sixers/pistons series so far. hopefully the sixers can keep this up. they just look so much quicker. it reminds me of when the hornets destroyed the old,slow heat in the playoffs a long time ago. only walter can save them.

sorry chrbal.

now watch the pistons go on a 20-0 run and end up winning the series 4-1

The wild part is they're doing pretty much without Iggy's offense...he's shooting 28% thru three games. I didn't see the 2nd two, but in the 1st Prince made him look pitiful.

Yet they've still won 2 out of 3.

This one they won BIG, too, which is very crazy. I still think Detroit is going to win, because they are the better team, but they're clearly not playing very well at all right now.

I'm definitely rooting for Philly, though.

likewise i am loving seeing paul have a rough game... and the best part of the night, watching the spurs go to hack-a-shaq in the first quarter. that's freaking great.

It's also stupid... he's a .500 FT shooter, would they tolerate giving up .500 2pt shots from the Suns? Then why do that AND get fouls?

Paul did have a bad night, though not really from anything the Mavs did... just terrible on open shots, same thing with West.

Suns need a HUGE 4th quarter to even have a chance at keeping the Nash and Shaq era alive...

all things come to an end.

Detroit feels the pressure now. Hopefully Philly will get it done.


I bet the suns wish they would not have done the Shaq deal. I dont believe the come back and beat the spurs. So what they are goin to do in the offseason?

I really hope NO will beat Dallas.

The jazz will beat the Rockets witch suits me just fine.

Im hope the Lakers will continue playing like that. Amazing passing.

Orlando will take care of Toronto. Dont care for one team or the other ( of course i like Howard)

Looks like Lebron is to much for the Wizzard. Here as well dont care for any of the 2.

Boston - Hawks. Kind a was hoping that the Hawks can bother them a little. But it seems that Bosten will make it to the Finals, spezialy if the pistons ar out of the picture.
