Do they have to blow this ship up if they get swept?
 
Hawks running out of gas in Game 2. Game 3 is going to be huge for the Hawks.

Indy's decline reminds me of our team in 2000-2001.

I just was thinking that a couple days ago. After we were best in the league, us and lakers had the same win streak. The lakers beating us at home created some implosion and we dropped all the way to 6th seed.

After Indy lost to Miami at home, their decent was eerily similar
 
It's too bad the TOR-BKN game is on a channel that I don't have, 'cause I'd much prefer to watch that than this blowout.
 
DerozAn is playing pretty bad in the playoffs on both ends. Valencunas and Amir Johnson have been impressive though.

Less so than Rockets fans?

Oh yeah. They are very proud of their f kg and kg sucks chants. Word I've heard is that a lot of the crowd has been blocked from broadcast, at least in game 1.

Bunch of hockey fans who don't realize they are watching basketball

Was it the GM or Mayor that said "Fuck Brooklyn" at the rally?

I agree, Fuck KG!
 
Raps fans are frustrated after seven straight quarters of trash from their team.
 
I thought Canadians were supposed to be polite and apologize all the time?!?
 
The KG stuff is linked to him getting into it with a few of our players (Matt Bonner, Jose Calderon) in the past.

I agree 100% but I'm not about to chant it. There are more constructive ways, always take the high road!

I went to game with NateBishop3 once, you should have heard the things he was chanting to the Junior Blazer Dancers.

Hibbert's decline has been so sudden, and the Pacers nose-dived right along with him. Paul George isn't proving to be much without Hibbert in the lane protecting the paint.

I blame parks and recreation for this!
 
If the NBA is interested in maximizing profits, they're going to want Lin on TV for 7 games every series. I don't think it's such an issue though and when we sweep the Rockets, it'll be a distant memory
 
Not looking forward to Paul Pierce hurling daggers for five minutes.

I'd be more concerned about DeRozan pouting on the end of the bench away from the huddle during that timeout than I would be concerned about anything else, if I were a Raptor fan.
 
I really hope some one in the east can step up and challenge the heat, cause if doesn't look like it's coming in their first or second round...
 
I appreciate the fact that DeRozan is hitting shots in fourth but long twos are what got him in trouble in this series in the first place.

I'd argue that is Derozan in a nutshell. Can drive, but settles for jumpers.

The East is a wasteland.
 
25-12 wizards...how nice would it be if the blazers were in the east?!?

His ball-handling is poor. When he drives, he fumbles a lot, and it plays on his confidence.

There needs to not be a east/west and instead something similar to the AFC/NFC.

Football changes so often, there's always a different team competing. I don't think that would work out very well for the nba, you would just end up with one of those 2 being stacked. They need to diversify the talent pool, but they screwed that up by not winning the lockout...
