2024/25 nba season

I can see the Nuggets making it to the WCF but losing to Minny

It's Friday, the knicks/celtics game tips off at 1am and I have a childless Saturday so my goal is to sleep early and get up to watch the game, my sleep has been all over the place theses playoffs but I feel it could be our year, first ECF in 25 years and I was a lot younger back then but I stayed up watching Allan Houstons game winner vs the Heat, Larry Johnsons 4 point plat to see off the Pacers and I just feel with this roster history can repeat its self.

We have a Game 7 to look forward to on Sunday. I'm hoping Gordon will be able to play;

Knicks took care of business to renew an old rivalry. Once again, here's hoping Game 7 between the Thunder and Nuggets doesn't turn out to be anti-climactic.

We're guaranteed a first time Finals matchup no matter who makes it through, with the possibility of a first time champion (a guarantee should the Pacers and Timberwolves both advance). Honestly, I like every potential matchup and outcome from here on out!

It was a joy to see the knicks blow out the Celtics and for the home fans to be able to celebrate but the jobs not done yet we got 2 more rounds yet to go.

As for game 7 i actually hope that the Nuggets take this one, fingers crossed AG plays too

Yeah, so about that...

[Andrew]

I was all ready to question Haliburton's decision to back out for a three with time winding down, and then that lucky bounce fell right through the net. Tremendous comeback for the Pacers, some excellent defense down the stretch in regulation and in OT.

[Andrew]

Huge bounce back win for the Timberwolves to show they're not just content to show up and be a stepping stone to the Finals for OKC. Actually making their threes and not shooting a ridiculous amount of them (by modern standards, anyway) while the Thunder struggled from downtown instead certainly helped.

I couldn't believe how many games the knicks have given up trying until there 20 points down before trying to claw it back.

[Andrew]

Looking a lot like a Thunder-Pacers Finals at this point, to state the extremely obvious. Two 3-1 comebacks would be something, though!

That might be a ratings nightmare for the league. I can't see casual fans checking in.

[Andrew]

It's a tougher sell for sure, which is a shame. I think it will actually be some great basketball, and the league shouldn't just be about the big markets (I hypocritically say as a fan of a big market team that I want to see successful again!). Then again, that's what happens when much of the league's promotional materials, and its coverage from ESPN and the like, focuses on just a couple of teams and players.

[mp3]

Hey is the it's going to be a ratings nightmare @nba then you can rig it for the knicks to make the finals just like you did with the draft lol

[Andrew]

I'd say it's Scott Foster's time to shine, but he's not assigned for Game 5.

[mp3]

Well the knicks have forced game 6 and iam hoping we force game 7, iam currently watching last night's game with my 8 year old daughter trying to explain to her the last time the knicks made the finals was in 2000 and that was 16 years before she was even born lol

[Andrew]

Pacers vs. Thunder it is!

[mp3]

Yeah it's probably not what the nba ratings wanted but there the teams who deserved to be there, I think iam rooting for the Pacers since then we can say we were beaten by the eventual champions

[Andrew]

The Pacers did it again! Glad I watched to the end, outstanding effort to make that run. Haliburton is really making that "most overrated" vote from his peers look like sour grapes.

[Andrew]

No big comeback for the Pacers in Game 2. It'll be interesting to see if we get some games that are actually close throughout, or whether it's going to be more Thunder blowouts or miraculous Pacers comebacks the rest of the way. Thunder are definitely looking good heading to Indiana.

[Andrew]

Looking pretty good for the Pacers again.
