Rhapsody Posted April 20, 2003 Report Posted April 20, 2003 If there are any sports fans here, please speak up. Let's start off with the typical question: Who's gonna win the championship this year? LA? San Antonio? Sacramento? Dallas? Did anyone see the Sacramento game? Could someone update me? The last time I checked Kings were winning by 7. Please tell me they won. Personally, I'm a Maverick fan and after seeing tonight's game, I'm a bit shaken. Portland really brought it to us in the second quarter. I think before the series is over, pure athleticism will play a factor. The Blazers have young athletic guys, while Mavs are known for their soft white boys. And the playoff atmostphere really revealed the Mavs defensive vulnerablilites...as in we have none. When Dirk is on, the Mavs can win. When he's not, we have a streaky record. If Nash or Nav Exel or Fin steps up, we have a chance. If not, we're screwed. Wow, San Antonio absorbed a real heartbreaker today. Even though the Spurs are Mavs rivals, I still take pride in them being Texan. I can't help but symphathize with them. But I have to admit, Marbury's buzzer three was SO FLY! Talk about pandemonium...it eerily reminded me of last year's Horry three at the buzzer in the second round LA-Sacto series. But bad memories. I think the Spurs are the best team in the league right now. They are peaking and have beaten LA in all their outings this season. The way I see it, the Western Conference Finals comes down to Spurs vs. Kings. How about Boston huh? Can't say I'm heartbroken considering the Pacers broke the Mavs 14 game winning streak early in the season. Not that I like Boston. But I think Indiana is too good a team to lost to Boston. But I predict a tough 6 or 7 game series especially after today's upset. What do y'all think of tomorrow's T'wolves--LAL game? Do KG and Sczerbiak really have a chance of beating the 3-peaters? Secondly, who do y'all think will win the East? HOpe I'm not talking to myself.

Elwen Posted April 25, 2003 Report Posted April 25, 2003 *sweatdrop* I know absolutely nothing about basketball. But I'll get back to you...one of my friends in my IB English class is so into basketball he watches EVERY GAME that is on...he should know. OK, I really should have left three minutes ago...Lady Bright, I'm going to be late!! Bye!
