i like the selection of bosh and o neal, they need to step up if their team is to win.

Haha I like how you put former raps on the logos

mirrornick · Post #5 » by **mirrornick** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 3:12 am

JO is the reason they won tonight. Ray's 3 wouldn't matter if it wasn't for JOs Defense and last second baskets.

- I hope Ed Davis is watching and learning.

Very entertaining - all of the series too. Right now Miami and Chicago are looking pretty good. We'll see soon.

which former raptor are you rooting for ? lol

underdog33 · Post #8 » by **underdog33** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 4:36 am

JO was huge with 4 blocks tonight.

hopefully if he can stay healthy, the celtics won't miss perkins or shaq all that much

It will be interesting to see what Boston will do when Shaq comes back. IMO, they should stick with JO starting. His interior presence/shotblocking is needed moreso than what Shaq brings. I think Boston should stick with a big man rotation of JO, KG, and Davis... with Shaq coming in when their is foul trouble.

I want to see the Sixers take at least 2 games from Miami... I think its definitely possible

Clutch Carter · Post #12 » by **Clutch Carter** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 5:08 am

Even though the Knicks lost, major props to Amare for carrying the team while Melo was bricking jumpers all night.

Glad NY lost. Hope Boston grows a pair and sweeps them.

The Knicks got jobbed by the refs at the end of the game. New York should have won.

Strategist1 · Post #17 » by **Strategist1** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 2:58 pm

I want Boston to win the East. I'm a big fan of their team philosophy and their focus on D. Yes, KG is an @ss... but I prefer Boston. I think JO is gonna be their X Factor.

Basketball_Jones · Post #18 » by **Basketball_Jones** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 3:12 pm

JO is a good defensive anchor. It's too bad the Raps had some of the worst depth in the entire league when we had him. He wasn't the problem, though he certainly wasn't the 2nd star beside Bosh we all thought he would be.

Bankai · Post #19 » by **Bankai** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 9:35 pm

Over/Under on how many more FT's the Heat will get than the Sixers in Game 2? 30?

Brinbe · Post #20 » by **Brinbe** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 11:58 pm

This game sucks, hopefully IND-CHI is a bit more competitive.
