Im tired of blowouts. Every game is a blowout. WTF??? 20/21 or whatever games for the home team is disgusting. Im a rockets fan so I envy that home court advantage, but atleast they went to Utah and won a damn game.

Yeah the playoffs have been completely watered down this year. With the exception of that first game, Suns vs. Spurs, they've all been crap games.

that was a dirty ass play by Horry....his only intention was to injure West....

mission accomplished

I don't think all the games have been crap, I think a lot of them have been thrilling.

The main issue for me is that a lot of these great teams are playing WAAAAAY too inconsistently, which is denying me a great matchup.

I want to see Hornets at their best vs. Spurs at their best, for example, but all I'm seeing are the teams taking turns, with one team playing at their best and the other team inexplicably shitting down their leg. THAT'S not exciting. Maybe one game out of the six have featured both teams playing well.

Same thing with Cavs-Celtics, only one game out of five where both teams showed up. Utah-Lakers same thing.

Yes -- Magic and Bird had tremendous mutual respect for each other. Tremendous.

The called shot on X McDaniel starts at 3:35 of this video, which is a compilation fo all his buzzer-beaters.

Wait. So Horry, in the split second before West went backwards, computed in his mind that West's back was bad and that he should try and pinch his nerve or whatever? Yeah, ok..

Horry didn't do anything but set a back screen, it was barely a foul. It wasn't an intentionally harmful play at all. It's not like he stuck out a fore arm or elbow. He leaned slightly forward, to brace for the impact of a big guy coming at him. He's trying to lay a screen for Manu so he can get off a shot or pass the ball. It wouldn't have been anything if West hadn't already been hurt. What, because West's back is sore the Spurs should play him with kid gloves? They shouldn't have thrown any contact his way because of his sore back? Should NBA players change their strategy so it can be "more fair" for the injured player? If your back is so hurt that you can't take that kind of contact, don't step on the floor.

We've gotten to a point in this league where people have a problem with players setting picks! Pussified.
