HAHAHA awesome!

 

Heat Locker room. The tears are overflowing, soaking the jerseys of key players who simply can't comprehend why this is happening to them.

 

 

Hahahahahaha.

 

Did Walton actually delete that?

Good God that entire feed is glorious.

 

No kidding. It might as well be the real bill walton.

That was actually Cleveland's most lopsided win of the season.

 

I think they said on SC that Cleveland was the last team to win a game by double-digits.

Apparently Lebron hid during player intros and then passed it off as a bathroom break at the postgame press conference.

 

hahahahahahahaha

I watched most of that game last night. That was highly entertaining. The teams were trading huge runs....18-1 one way...then 12-0 the other...etc. It was wild. The Heat couldn't play any defense well other than zone.

Hopefully "not in our garage" becomes the next "winning!"

 

An annoying phrase said by idiots?

 

Fingers crossed

 

The right Brooklyn hipster could probably make it work for a day or so as a smartass reply.

Bit of a scuffle during the Lakers-Mavs game and believe it or not, Ron Artest wasn't involved in any way.

It would really suck to be a fan of a team like Atlanta where outside fans take over your arena every time you paly someone good.

With 12 games to play, the Lakers needed to win out and have the Spurs go 5-7 just to tie them in the standings. 6 games in, and the Spurs have lost all 6, meaning the Lakers now control their own destiny for the 1 seed.

I'm torn on this. Obviously having home court over the Spurs if they met in the WCF would be great and if there's a first-round upset, the Lakers would get that team instead of the Spurs/Thunder/Mavs in the second round. But if the favorites all win, I'd much rather play Dallas than OKC in the second round and Dallas and OKC are pretty much locked into the 3 and 4 seeds barring an epic collapse by Dallas.

 

Hopefully the Bulls can lose a game or two so the Lakers would have home court in the Finals if the two teams met.

There's no reseeding in the NBA playoffs. So, the 1 seed in the West will get OKC/Denver in the second round.

I thought they changed that after the year when Golden State beat Dallas in the 8-1 matchup and then played the 4/5 while the 2 and 3 met up, but I guess not.

 

Well, scratch that part out and I'm still torn on where I want the Lakers to finish.

The only change they've made to playoff seeding lately is where they allowed one non-division winning to be seeded ahead of other division winning teams with a worse record.

Mavs lose tonight so they're 2 1/2 back of LA, three in the loss column and the Lakers would hold the tiebreaker as a division winner so they're virtually locked into the 3-seed. Portland, Memphis and New Orleans are all within a game of each other for the 6-7-8 spots, though all three are in barring a collapse.

 

The East is nearly set also with the exception of Boston/Miami for 2/3 and maybe Philly/NY for 6/7 and Indiana/Charlotte for 8/9.

 

So first round we're looking at:

 

SA-Mem/Port/NO

LAL-Mem/Port/NO

Dal-Mem/Port/NO

OKC-Den

 

Chi-Ind/Cha

Mia/Bos-NY/Phi

Mia/Bos-NY/Phi

Looking at that the #2 seed seems like a better spot than #1 in the West.

Definitely, especially if Portland can grab the sixth seed. If you're Dallas, you're looking at having to go through Portland, LA and SA/OKC/Den to get to the finals, which would be a brutal stretch.

Good lord that was an ugly game, though not quite Butler-UConn bad. The top-5 spots in the West are pretty much locked up now with SA, LAL, Dal, OKC and Den.
