    easiest route to the Finals by a team in NBA history goes to .....The Miami Heat.

    I don't think the Sixers are going to be roadkill. The team was playing with a determination that was missing in April. Sixers took two games from Boston, decidedly, in the regular season. Celtics really looked old against the Hawks, and Rondo nearly played them out of the series.

    I don't think this is a short series, and if Hawes keeps it up, the Sixers have a shot. Sixers can't afford to leave Boston without a split, though.

    I see nothing wrong with the fans celebrating their team's victory.

    Do you?

    Relax. They were raining down confetti after the game and jumping around the court like mad hugging each other after the final buzzer rang..just thought it was humorous since it's just the 1st round.

    Yeah, they should definitely be more subdued after winning their first round series. If only there were more corporate stiffs filling the crowd to keep the atmosphere somber.

    Unfortunately, I think it will be Celtics in 6...

    I am predicting major upset and very ugly game tonight.

    87-84 Sixers

    ;)

    Well, the defenses for both teams are great. And Celtics are hurt.

    Do any of yall think that Garnett is more interested in style than substance. He is soooooooo flashy with his shot.
