My Picks for Tonight
Boston, Dallas, Utah. I will never pick [Redacted] so that vote is a bit biased. But I think the C’s are due for a good game in front of a home crowd and Dallas should be energized too.

The C's will be playing in Chicago

Go [Redacted]!
I know as a Kings fan I’m not supposed to root for “those guys.” But, they need to make it to the Finals because I need to see Lebron destroy Kobe

I must admit
Watching Boston demolish/annihilate/rape [Redacted] in the last game of the NBA finals last year was mighty entertaining.

Cnn SI is reporting that Natt has been fired...
…along with four assistants, including Bubba Burrage…
I was under the impression that Bubba was a longtime King scout – was I mistaken?

Good start for Boston, but
Pierce just picked up his 2nd foul, late in the 1st Q.

Yeah, and they're playing him straight up
so, no open 3s of the double teams. Add Parker struggling too and SA has no offense.

I guess he didn't like Roy dropping 40 on him
and surprise surprise, Houston is doing fine without his offense. If he’d just focus on D and take his O in the flow he’d still end up scoring 15 a game, but his team would be much better.
