***OFFICIAL*** 2005 NBA FINALS Thread!!!! ***CONFIRMED***

[iamme]

i can't believe how long the first roung is taking

 

[torpid]

What was with the taped jaw pierce had during the press conference? He said with a straight face that he had a "fractured jaw". Some reports make it sound intentionally comedic and others a stunt to point out how much tinsley was fouling him to the refs??

Yeah, it looked stupid. Sportscenter said that he didn't get any injury, but wanted to emphasize how "dirty" of a player Tinsley is. My opinion is that when Tinsley swiped his face at the end of the game, Pierce should've (over)reacted by clutching his face. I.e. make the foul seem worse than it was.

[BRObedoza]

another game going down to the last second. i love playoff basketball!

 

[BRObedoza]

damn Duhon and Hinrich blew it

 

[BRObedoza]

wtf why did Chandler put up a two pointer with three guys on the 3 point arch

some tight sphincters are the end of that game on the Bulls

 

[maddogchen]

OMG Tyson CHandler why?????

 

[maddogchen]

that was an AWESOME block from behind by Arenas

 

[iamme]

when chandler took that 2pt shot, i was just shaking my head.....

anyways, looking back at the poll 50 people picked Chicago (myself included) and 30 picked Washington. nice upset by the Wiz.

two game 7's on tonight.....should be more good basketball!

 

[Reckoner]

Celtics are going to the Finals. How sweet would it be to have the Patriots/BoSox/Celtics all as World Champions?

 

[iamme]

indiana vs boston game 7 on now...

 

[BRObedoza]

i hope this game goes down to the last possession. all game 7's should!

 

[BRObedoza]

[spacejamz]

[BRObedoza]

Why, oh why couldn't have Philly played Boston? They could've at least made it into the second round with the way Boston stank it up.

 

[iamme]

round 2 !!!!

new polls for second round.

pistons vs. pacers :evil:

 

[jalaram]

I'd be honestly surprised if it wasn't Heat-Pistons and Suns-Spurs in the conf. finals.

 

[iamme]

sonics vs spurs on now.

miami defeated washington earlier today...

 

[BRObedoza]

2 blowouts yesterday

indiana/detroit on the verge of a blowout

hope Phoenix/Dallas is better

 

[gflores]

Go Pistons!

 

[jalaram]

MVP in action right now. Suns started off 8-0. Now, 11-4
