Ok din sa akin if the Heat advance to the Finals. I'm rooting for Shaq, since he's an ex-Laker. But Detroit really seems formidable despite losses in the post-season to Milwaukee and Cleveland, plus they have homecourt advantage. Tall order for Miami, pero bilog nga ang bola.

yup, its a pretty tall order for Miami....Payton can't guard Billups. And I think Shaq will have trouble with Big Ben guarding him. They need a Bowen-type defender (Posey?) to chase Hamilton around those picks. Wade is the key. If he can carry the load and much more, Miami has chances.

Another Detroit-San Antonio Finals doesn't bode well too for Stern. Last year's Finals TV ratings is low.

i think the viewership of the semifinals will be

1. Spurs vs Mavericks
2. Suns vs Clippers
3. Heat vs Nets
3. Pistons vs Cavs

I guess you don't like Detroit that much, hehehe...Rasheed just guaranteed they'll win the series with the Cavs.

di naman, it's just that for the past few years the same old teams ang nanalo. tapos ng spurs, lakers, tapos pistons naman, tapos spurs ulit. i do think the pistons are formidable pero bigyan naman nila ng chance yung iba na magkaroon ng singsing. kawawa naman kasi, hehehe...

Wagi sila LeBron! 74-72

Yahooooooooo!

Caught the last 8 seconds and was screaming when the Pistons made their last drive. Muntik naaaaa

I wonder how'll Rasheed will react after his "predictions" about winning Game 4.

edited coz I got my Wallaces confused, haha

slowhand · « **Reply #126 on:** May 16, 2006 at 09:53 AM »

Parity? Yes!!! Cavs are at parity with Pistons now!!!
And so ends Sheed's guarantees...

Cavs won by...playing D...of all things. Way to go!

so much for the GUARAN-SHEED, talk is really cheap......maybe Rasheed's mouth is in his a** now.....makes for a very interesting game 5.

would the coach isuue a gag order? hehehe

OT...local play...It was sad to hear a PBA player, Eugene Tejada of Purefoods suffer a very serious injury. Until now, he is numb from the waist down. Hope he recovers, though it was reported he will need multiple surgeries and a very long rehabilitation.

kimpOy · « **Reply #130 on:** May 16, 2006 at 11:54 AM »

nasty fall on tejada, but i was shocked to find out pa sa Makati Med yung ambulance. So hindi talaga fully prepared sila for any emergency. I hope next time the PBA makes sure that there is an ambulance on standby in every game, in town or out of town.

RNIverson · « **Reply #131 on:** May 16, 2006 at 01:03 PM »

spurs just lost game 4 118-123, and are now down 1-3

sayang naman career season ni parker pag eliminated sila $:-\$

Munskie · « **Reply #132 on:** May 16, 2006 at 01:05 PM »

I think he was also at the bottom of a 4-player pile-up....freak accident. anyway, Dallas just beat SA, to move up 3-1. Suddenly, the defending Champs are in the ropes.

edboy7 · « **Reply #133 on:** May 16, 2006 at 01:34 PM »

who ever thought that Cavs would make a 2-2 after games 1 and 2....kulang na mag concert si Usher sa saya

OT..regarding Tejadas fall, saw that play...he got the ball and had a nasty fall then Mike Penisi fell on him, he even heard then cracking sound on his back $:-\$ laid down motionless for 20mins yata. News report said that he can feel his lower extremities now (but still cant move the legs) and putting a titanium plate on his disllocated spinal cord is in consideration

So si Usher nga yung nakita ko!

SOP nila yon ang alam ko kaya nga nakapagtataka bat ang tagal dumating. Ang sabi ni Kume, it was because of the storm daw kaya na-delay

Hindi rin nga siguro fully-equipped yung naka-standby (Lifeline Arrows?) galing pa ata sa Makati Med yung spinal board (or whatever you call that unyielding scrap of material) and the neck brace. Very sad to see.

oo nga. mukhang matatapos na ang season ng spurs. i seem to recall they have never recovered in the previous years kapag down na sila ng 3 - 1.

The Miami Heat advance to East Conference Finals.
winning 106-105 against the Nets. lots of time to rest while waiting for the winner of Cavs-Pistons

just like ive said...Miami Heat's line up is built to win now. Pick: LBJ and the Cavs.....or Pistons fab 5?

GUARANSHEED??...(from page 2 espn)

kimpOy · « **Reply #140 on:** May 17, 2006 at 12:03 PM »

a Cleveland-Miami East Finals would be a dream matchup for stern...
remember that wade-lebron shootout last march (or april)

Munskie · « **Reply #141 on:** May 17, 2006 at 01:08 PM »

Perfect match-up for me....entertainment wise.....

Munskie · « **Reply #142 on:** May 17, 2006 at 01:28 PM »

Sam Cassell called on a 8-second violation while smiling playing prank with Rajah Bell on a potential game winning possession. Tim Thomas forgetting to call timeout on a potential game winning play. Jack Nicholson in Phoenix rooting for the Clippers. Dang!! Some weird situations out there. And Jack? a true LA fan.

edboy7 · « **Reply #143 on:** May 17, 2006 at 01:41 PM »

whew....saw that game when LBJ and Wade was up against each other, the Cavs won it

But either Cavs or Pistons the Heat will be prepared for it

Munskie, LA clicppers is still LA right? hehehe j/k

Raja Bell just hit a 3 pointer to tie...2nd OT

garee · « **Reply #144 on:** May 17, 2006 at 02:36 PM »

Phoenix 125, LA Clippers 118, 2OT

heart breaker for LA but i think it will go 7 games. the suns are sure fun to watch but i doubt their chances when they face a defensive minded team.

Munskie · « **Reply #146 on:** May 17, 2006 at 03:08 PM »

Great Game!!! Jack can't get a break....Rajah Bell tied the game in regulation..ala Tim Thomas against the Lakers. At least you'll sympathize with Billy Crystal, Jack

These Phoenix Suns always find ways to escape with a win - nakakainis na!

But I agree that this series will likely go the distance. Phoenix should be favored in a Game 7, and it should make a nice story line if they bump off another LA team in a deciding game. But then again, if the Clippers manage to beat the Suns and advance, mas matutuwa siguro ang Laker fans.

that sequence was too funny. except if you're a fan of either team, of course. or their coaches -- i though d'antoni and dunleavy would have heart attacks!

Exactly, bwisit sila. The Lakers had game six but couldn't rebound the ball, hehe!

Every Clipper 2, the Suns fire back with a 3. Phoenix is always at the bottom when it comes to defensive stats. Playoff basketball is all about defense. They've been very lucky so far.
