So sad I missed all this. I'm really hoping the Suns make it to the finals, but I guess we'll see.

Farrrkk.
There goes the Bucks' season - Bogut just dislocated his elbow.

Mavs are massively overrated too imo.
Durant just keeps getting better and better this year. Imo the Thunder are the Lakers' biggest threat. The Jazz are good, but they haven't really improved their roster much to the point they can take the Lakers in 7. Nuggets maybe, but Melo can Chauncey would have to play amazingly well - consistently too.
The Thunder are an unknown quantity for the Lakers' in the Playoffs and Durant is the best player in the NBA imo. They're depth and inexperience will be really tested though.

Don't know why you would say the trailblazers are so easy for the lakers.. they haven't won in portland in like 4 years.

regular season =/= playoffs. Portland won't play as well in the playoffs (a la last year when they got buttsmashed)

Portland isn't deep enough to put together a solid playoff run yet.
|
Why did PHX starts play so few minutes that game?
|
probably resting for the playoffs oo~

Can they afford to rest? They can reasonably still drop to six if my math is right.

Two unfathomable storylines:
The Nets have been a winning team lately, 4-2 since they snapped their last loss streak.
Darko has been playing really well, perhaps he's been the Wolves most effective player.
And somehow Miami's #2 in fewest points allowed

is it a coincidence that the Nets start winning just when everyone stops caring? not too impressive, the Nets are the only non-playoff team still fighting, I.E trying to get as far away from 'worst team ever' status as possible. so they have a lot of motivation, not as unfathomable as you may think.
darko is just meh.

Looks like Bogut is out for the season.. Feel really bad for the Bucks as it was the first decent season they've put together is about 5 years.
|
considering bogut's history i'm not particularly surprised. but it's always disheartening when someone gets injured esp. when they're having the best season of their career.
jennings on the other hand has to improve his fg% man. damn. it probably has a lot to do with poor shot selection but even then, how can you shoot below 40% for the past 4 months (37% for the season)?! DAMN...

watching that bogut play is gut-turning. *shudders*. i hope that i never get to watch something like that happen in person. even on tv it's gruesome

It was pretty gruesome indeed. However, I still think Shaun Livingston's injury was worse to watch. Ugh.

I can't watch shaun livingston's video it's too painful
|
King James scored 42 against the Celtics and KD scored 40 against the T.Wolves.looks like these guys are really putting up a serious fight to the finish. also that Andrew Bogut fall was gut wrenching.Shawn Livingston's is even worse.Hope they recover soon.Finally the Bucks made it to the playoffs and one of their star players suffers from THAT.

man manu's been playing like a man possessed over the past 2 months. if he can keep this up until the playoffs (which i doubt cause he'll proly get injured) then the spurs will be my dark horse (besides the thunder of course).
