Official 2008 NBA Playoffs Thread

This is my quote from 4-14 about the Celtics vs. Hawks series.

I'm actually looking forward to the Boston ATL series, 1. because I called for Atl to make the playoffs before the year started , and 2. because I want Boston to be TIRED when we (hopefully) see them in the East finals. And while I don't necessarily think Atl will beat them, if anybody has seen them play this year they know, they are actually a pretty tough team to match up with because they have so many of those "hybrid" build guys, amd I hope that they can run around the "old" guys on Boston just long enough for them to start tireing a little, before they gotta go play LeBron.

Well, the Hawks won again, who would've saw this coming......

If I didn't know better, I'd think you were a Heat fan....

i'll be a heats fan next season

I have a bunch of heat gear, but i'm too embarassed to wear it. especially now. It's like my friend who bought a $120 brady jersey for the superbowl, and then couldn't use it again out of shame

Come on, wearing it when they suck is the fun part! Thats why I love my Lions gear so much!

So, Pistons win tonight, going back to Philly for game 6.

N.O. beats Dallas, and moves on. It will be interesting to see what Dallas does in the off-season because their core group obviously cant get it done, and there's no way Cuban will tolerate that any longer.

don't get me wrong. I wore it during the regular season, up until the final game. Wearing heat gear during the playoffs makes me seem like an uninformed poser

You know what, I buy that. Although from what I hear of the Heat fan-base, not many of them would even notice you wearing it, let alone if they were in the playoffs or not!
