I don't think I've ever seen a player go from the proverbial NBA penthouse to the outhouse so quickly.

Well, nobody expected Atlanta to go as hard as they have. Especially since they are the only below .500 team and almost tanked away their playoff spot.

Is this where I say that I knew all along that Mike Scott was going to be a gamer and that we should have used our Santoransky pick on him? Well I won't because I'm above that, even though that's what I've been telling you loosers all along.

Seriously though, the Hawks are just unnaturally hot from 3. All but 1 of the Hawks who've taken a 3 are shooting 30%+ and the lone Hawk who's shooting sub30% is Pero Antic who's taken 15 3's this series.

Bobcat fans....(They discuss us non-stop. Doesn't matter what thread either)



It pains me to watch the Wizards and the Hawks play competitively in the postseason knowing that Charlotte is just as capable.


It feels like we were punished by winning 5 more games than the hawks, I mean they are shredding the pacers in this series that could be us, also if both hawks and wiz advance that will piss me off, espicially if wizards win they don't deserve to go to ecf, the bobcats and raptors are just as good NBA needs to reconsider their playoff seeding


i cry inside just a bit whenever i see the wiz have success in the playoffs because ik theyre not better than us theyre luckier than us, that should be us

They hate John.

They think he gets the attention that should "rightfully" go to Kemba.

Memphis needs to quit building 20 point leads and choking them away. They should have won the series tonight but now they gotta do it at the grindhouse

Mike Miller had 21 points. Still giving OKC nightmares since the 2012 Finals

Durant is tired and admitted Tony Allen is in his head. He looks mentally done in this press conference.

It would be really crazy to have OKC and IND both lose in the 1st round. Even the SAS are only tied in their series.

The Clippers could end up as the top seed in the 2nd round in the West and the Wizards the second seed in the East.

The West is just crazy. I knew MEM had a chance to win because of past history with OKC.

I'm not surprised DAL has made it interest with the SAS. But SAS is one Vince Carter shot away from closing the series out tonight and even then, Tony Parker is now injured and Ginobili/Splitter/Duncan have been the best players for SA in this series. Boris Diaw seems to be stepping up now too.

IND I thought would lose in Round 2 but whatever the issue is going on there, I'm dying to find out. Haven't seen a team collapse like that since Game 6 of last year's finals.

Memphis doing a number on Durant. He is shooting 10% worse from the field and from 3 than he did during the regular season.

Do y'all think that there's something to the rumor about one of the Pacers players sleeping with a teammate's wife?


Hadn't heard that. Who are they saying it was.

Team chemistry is a funny thing. So is playing as the front runner after going to the ECF. Some teams play better as underdogs. Winning as the leader is a skill.

Oh.. TOR SPANKING BRK going into the forth.

I hated on that team because I didn't want them to steal the Wizards thunder ( come home KD). And I really didn't want the Wizards to face them in round one for that reason. But this is kind of cool. Both teams has their own room to breath this way.

Should be interesting if they make it to round 2. Right now, I would want to see them win at least 2 but I wanted MIA sitting their for the Wizards if they get out of round two. Thats the series to look forward to.

WIZ VS MIA ... Thats how you make a name for yourself. Take down MIA in the ECFs

Wow...That's crazy yo. If they were winning Paul George would be getting mad attention right now. He's taking up all of Hibbert's rebounds. Hibbert ought to be ashamed of himself for his effort yo. No excuse to not show up for the playoffs. I don't care how mad you are at your teammates. You still got work to do.


What is he mad about ?

Personally I would love to see the Pacers get up and play us in the semis. The exposure for Wall and Beal and the whole Wizards org would be bigger and I think the Pacers truly would have the arse handed to them by this Wizards team.
