Just a pathetic effort by denver. I was actually looking forward to seeing 2
close games, but denver didn't even show up. Melo looking like complete garbage.

this game was pretty predictable - Spurs win this series in and it wouldn't shock me to see them win it in 5, just like two years ago.

I can't wait to see the Dallas game though. That one REALLY has my interest piqued.

I have no doubts that the Spurs will down the Nugs..no doubt at all. The Spurs are actually my favorite to win the title (sorry Suns fans, but the Spurs are tough).

However, I not only think the Warriors can beat Dallas, I fully expect them to beat Dallas especially if the Little General keeps playing right into their hands.

tidbit I just realized

Coming into tonight, the Mavericks have lost five straight playoff games.

Nuggets are making a comeback with about 4 minutes left and only down 9pts.

Edit: 6pt game with 3:15 left and a 14-3 run by the Nuggets.

Edit: 3pt game with 35 secs left

OMG - Camby just missed a wide open dunk to cut it to 4. That was sad.

is anyone else sick of Iverson complaining about EVERY CALL OR NON-CALL.

Damn, Camby - you make that dunk, ti's a 2 point game with a minute left.

WHOA - AI with a three!

how Camby misses that dunk is just beyond words - and at that point of the game, I foul Duncan every time, especially if he gets the ball that far down low.

Yeah, I was psyched to see both games tonight, but after that first one I'm sensing a Dallas beat down in game 2. Even though Denver made it close at the end, the outcome was never in doubt.

Well the Warriors have shown up to play and so has Dallas now (coming back from being down 8 early). Looks like this is shaping up to be a great game.

I'm not counting the Nugs out of it yet - I was impressed the way they came back at the Spurs at the end. Too bad they didn't send Duncan to the FT line when they had a good chance... he's choked before shooting free throws in the clutch.

How bout this Cavs/Wizards non series? How Bron and the Cavs don't just destroy this team is beyond me. They are struggling on it's own floor to beat a team with it's 2best players missing! Pathetic!

He jumped from too far away, and he lost the ball going up. He should have laid the ball up, instead of going for the dunk. Right after that missed dunk, I knew the game was over.

I still hate Paxson but his team is nice and I found myself rooting for them.

Denver looks good so far.
The refs gave Nene his 2nd foul on a real bad call!

Denver's offense is horrible. They don't know what plays to run and revert to Iverson isolating against double teams... No low post offense at all, not 3pt shooting, simply terrible.

Deng is looking really good. Remind me again, why did we trade him away?

Miami is done.

Chris Bosh is so overrated, can't carry his team against a frontline made up of Mikki Moore, Jason Collins and Josh Boone. I mean even if they lost, he is supposed to carry his team against those guys but he can't.

I didn't see much of that series, but the Nets looked far more athletic than the Raptors. Jefferson looked like an All Pro and Carter went bananas. I suppose Bosh could have done more, but I don't think it would have made any difference.

As well as the Nets are playing right now, they might beat the Cavs, if Cleveland continues to play like crap against an inferior Wizards team. Bet Chicago/Detroit would love that. 89-88 under 2 min

Watching Denver and San Antonio.

Nene has really improved as a player. He is much more active than I remember him two years ago, and he is working well with Camby.
