    Im embarrased that we lost 2 in a row to brooklyn. Bsing around and playing extra games in the first round is a bad look. This series is already a failure to me even though i am 100 percent sure we will win this series and the next one. Bud is killing us with his substitution pattern and minute management of some starters. But again, Brooklyn has my respect by holding serve.

      I don't think the Hawks are even challenging the Wizards, let alone the Cavs.

        Looks like the MCW trade for Knight is working out well. It just takes awhile for the players to get accustomed to a new, different player.

        Usually, by now, I'm into the upcoming Packers draft. It's nice to put that aside for a few more days.

          Combined score of the Nets-Hawks series: Nets 394, Hawks 393

          Might be a dumb question but has there been a team that won a series but still get outscored or is that not possible?

            I think the Hawks match up pretty well with the Cavs, if they make it that far. The ball movement and Korver running around screens would cause lots of problems for that defense, and losing Love is going to hurt.

            I have no idea if it's happened but it is definitely possible. You could get blown out in your losses and squeak by in your wins.

                I just knew what Brooklyn can do when they play as a team and minimize the hero ball. Couple that with not being impressed by Atlanta all season, picking Brooklyn made sense to me. DWill, needs to show up consistently for us to win this series.

                  Heat were out scored by the Spurs in the finals during their repeat.. They had that one awful game where they didn't get out of the 70's.. Game 3 I think.

                    There were a lot of odd stats that came out of that series....

                        Watching the replay on NBATV and this is probably the livest I've seen Barclays be for a game since maybe Game 1 of Bulls-Nets a few years back. And that was a Monday night game so Game 6 should be just as crazy since its on a Friday Night.

                          Cavaliers GM says it's highly unlikely that Love returns at any point during the playoffs.

                            Love is done for the rest of the season.

                            Damn.

                                Not a anti LeBron guy but it will be nice to see an east representative with him not on the team....love seeing new blood...(unless it's my team that is)
