So disappointed in Portland... They just can't make a shot to save their lives when it matters.

Kudos to Dallas though--they made some really tough shots down the stretch.

Bynum did well against an undersized Hornets, but it'll be interesting to see how he goes playing Chandler.

Can't believe how bad Orlando is. I really believe they'd be a sub .500 team without Dwight and maybe miss the playoffs this year. Even LeBron had some help at the Cavs. Dwight has... Nelson and Turkeyglue? Says it all really.

One thing I will add though: I agree with a poster in here about the refs letting the Hawks basically assault Dwight night in and out. Pachulia in particular didn't even try and hide it tonight and was just out there to mug Howard all game. Fair enough too as the Magic are so bad when you limit Dwight's influence, but he doesn't get a lot of love from the refs.

So... Chicago vs Atlanta--I think this one could go either way. Chicago would normally be a lay down misere, but they're not playing great ATM and Atlanta are surprising a few people with their tough play. I'll go for the Bulls but it will be close.

Boston v Miami--damn this will be epic. Easily the pick of the second round for me. I really don't know which way to go but I just hope there will be blood.

Lakers v Mavs--Dallas is too inconsistent. They'll probably take a couple, but Lakers are pretty much a better team at each position except for PF. Both teams have pretty deep benches though so could be good. And please stop giving playing time to Stojakovic. I don't how that guy gets and NBA contract each time.

OKC to enjoy their extra day off and watch the Grizz and Spurs kill eachother.


Dwight Howard and Dirk lead the league in postseason FT attempts. Dwight by a ways, so the refs were calling some fouls that were against him.

All I'm saying is, watching yesterday's game, Dwight could have gone to the line a whole lot more than he did IMO.

Zach Randolph just cannot miss a shot. The Spurs aren't even playing bad defense. Randolph is just too beast right now.

What the hell happened to Zach Randolph? I remember when he was all fat and crazy with the Jailblazers. Somehow he became a lowpost monster when I wasn't looking.

Anyway, Grizzlies-Thunder will be an awesome series. I like both teams, though I think only the Thunder will have a real shot at beating the Lakers.

Randolph is so unglamorous on the court, but damn he is effective. His skill and strength in the low-post is amazing.

So sad for the Spurs. It was like rooting for the 2009 Celtics without Garnet.

Back to rooting for another flawed defensive team, the Celtics.

Not sure how Zach Randolph is underrated for non-casual fans. He made the allstar team a year ago, and he's been a beast in the post since he was traded to the Grizzlies.

I liked him on the clippers, but I mean, it was the clippers...Marc Gasol was the true big body that did it, both people were just to large for the Spurs, especially when Bonner fouled up. Z-bo is the mother fuckin man, dont get me wrong, but the two big guys on the front court was epic. Ibaka vs Z-bo and Perkins vs Gasol is going to be fun :D

This is some great ball starting now.

I immediately think of all the trouble he has gotten into off the court and the fact that no one talks about it. LOL someone on TNT recent said something to the likes of "he nevers gets in trouble off the court" AHAHAHAAHAHA. Being a Portland fan my whole life I know thats bull .

He's matured a lot in the last couple of years. I mean he had what, a year in college? I'm glad to see he grew up and grew into such a low post beast.

At any rate, he grizzlies sneakily became a really solid team. 2 solid big men (gasol and randolph), a decent pg (conley), 2 sick wing defenders (allen) one of whom is a great 3 point spot up shooter (battier), an off the bench scorer (mayo), and whatever darrell arthur gives them. Solid team

Well honestly got to say, most of my playoff predictions are dying like crazy right now.....

But that doesn't change the fact that these games are freaking amazing/entertaining.

I am really stoked for the semis and hoping that this time my predictions will be accurate.

But I honestly cannot say that one side is stronger than the other. Both have their ups and downs and right now, all we can do is just watch and wait for the results.

That being said, if you guys can head over to pg 12 and do the polls, much much much much much love. I love seeing TL's opinions and explanations.
