NBA Playoffs

So its deep into the second round of the playoffs and it looks as though it will be the NBA's dream finals: Kobe vs. Lebron. Just a couple thoughts on what I've seen so far:

- The Blazers may have not put up a huge fight, but they just made young mistakes and showed that they are going to be a playoff team for years to come.

- Jamal Crawford. Stephon Marbury. Tracy McGrady. What do these three have in common? Their teams are always better without them and none will leave this league with a ring on their finger.

- The NBA is killing the game of basketball with all of these "flagrant 2s" and ejections. I'll admit Derek Fisher deserved to get ejected (and a standing O for nailing Scola), but Ron Artest did not deserve that flagrant last night. In a year when the NBA is finally making a comeback with fans thanks to great matchups, they need to just let the players play like the good old days.




There's just a few thoughts, now who you got winning it all? I'll take Lakeshow in 6 over Lebron.
