Philly looks bad. Really bad.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

I see "late whistles" more often and I'm generally fine with it. Too often it's a "quick whistle" where the ref is anticipating what he assumes is going to happen.

I'm concerned with having to go through Boston with Miami and their grind you down defense waiting on the other side.

At this point I'm not worried about anything beyond Boston.

I was thinking this last night at halftime of our game, whoever wins between Milwaukee/Boston is going to have a much harder time getting past Miami than People think, if either even get past Miami at all.

For us it depends on Middleton of course, I said the other day I think we would miss Middleton more against Miami than we do against Boston.

My confidence level of getting through Boston sits at about 20%. I think its far more likely Boston takes the momentum from Game 4, at home wins Game 5 and then we're a very long shot of advancing.

It baffles me how quickly the momentum can swing in the home games of playoff series.

Miami looked all over the shop in the 2 Philly games and the come out and drop them by 35 at home. Philly looked disinterested today. Don't know how that happens in such an important game.

There is no such thing as game to game momentum, maybe in close out situations at home like game 6 last year, but otherwise I feel like anything can happen game to game. Philly the last 5 years is as bi polar as they come.

The NBA needs to figure something out with all these reviews, it's just bad TV and kills the flow of a game.

Fear we might see this again sooner than we think.

Every sport needs to figure out how to make them quicker. The technology exists that replays should be almost instantaneous.

Embarrassing efforts today from Philly and Dallas. Hopefully it's the opposite for us tomorrow.

Supposedly Spot let PJ, Bam, and Butler allowed to figure things out defensively, and they blow out philly. I wonder how much PJ contributes with X's and O's and strategy. Seemed like there were whispers about him influencing the bucks similarly last year.
