| I am a life long Celtics fan and would love to see them close the Pistons out in the eastern conference finals. It looks like the Lakers are going to the finals after the Spurs had a meltdown in the last game. A Lakers/Celtics final would be great to watch! |

| Yea I see the Pistons winning too, but it doesn't really matter. Whoever wins the west(looks like lakers) will beat the Celtics or Pistons. |

| I'm a huge Lakers fan. I think we should beat whoever in the finals, but I think the Pistons would be tougher to beat. |

| Anyone see that bs no call the other night in the lakers/spurs game? I think it's Karma for all the flops they take. |

Celtics are like Rodney Dangerfield they just can't get any respect. That was a nice win for the Celtics, and everyone knows they win at home. Celtics had the best record during the season.
That call at the end of the Lakers/Spurs game was total poop. Of course we have the argument that the refs always decide the game so therefore we get the no call on that shot. I think the refs still decided the game by not calling the foul. Definitely a foul in my opinion. |

that was a foul, but is it a foul that ever gets called at the end of the game?
Its like in soccer, where ticky tacky stuff gets called everywhere but in the box, in basketball they hesitate to call stuff like that at the end of the game.
Why the hell did Barry have the ball also? |

Barry, wasnt' supposed to get the ball, but he did. He was the hot hand in that game anyway.
If he had shot it when he went up he would have got the foul. He didn't know how to sell the foul anyways. A good player would have thrown the ball at contact and fell to the ground. It all worked out anyway. Spurs were getting away with all kinds of crap! |

Agreed good analysis here. Barry has been shooting good as of late, but definitely could have "sold" the foul a little more. The one good thing about NBA playoffs is it is a series of games. Usually in a best of 7 series the best team will prevail. |

And that would be my Lakers in an hour and a half. |

Looks like we will see you guys. Quesion, are you in Boston right now or South Korea? I'm going to be in Korea June 10th and I don't want to miss any of the finals. So I have to find a sports bar or something there that plays the games live. |

I am in Boston right now planning to go to Korea in August. I am not happy about having to find a place to watch NFL games in Korea, luckily Sopcast plays most of the games each week for NFL. I am sure you can find a Sopcast for the NBA finals. |

It obviously was a foul by Fisher. Frankly, I can't stand the Spurs, especially Duncan's whining every time there is a no call against him or a foul called against him, Ginobli's flopping, and Horry and Bowen's dirty tactics. I don't like the Lakers either, but I enjoyed watching them beat the Spurs.
In the East, I am hoping Detroit can pull it off, but it doesn't look like they will. |
