    Pop getting out-coached yet again. A recurrent theme in the playoffs.

    Of all the years I've watched the playoffs, 2014 edition might be the best in a decade, anyone agree?

    I would trade McHale and half of the team for Carlisle.

    I wouldn't do that, but I might give up a 1st round pick for him.

    If the Mavs advance and Rockets don't, I'm going to puke.

    Not only that, but the Thunder, the Rockets worst matchup, might not get out of the first round. Please Rockets, just win this series.

    I am stunned at the first round outcomes. I don't remember a playoffs like this, where so many favorites are down. If OKC loses tonight the earth may tilt.

    I find it comforting that the Spurs are on the same boat with the Rockets now.

    +1. EVERY series is pretty damn entertaining (except for Heat v. Bobcats).

    The West is just so good from the 1st to the 9th team. Being the top seeds will still have to face tough games in playoffs.

    I think our worst matchup is the Clippers. But yeah, the fact that OKC might not get out of the first round is exciting as a fan of any of the other 7 teams lol

    Bobcats really got the short end of the stick. Heat v _______ , where (anyone not the Bobcats or the Hawks) would have been a better first round series. Hell, if BKN had lost one more game in the regular season, while CHA won one more, the EC playoffs might be just as competitive as the WC playoffs.

    Favorites are favorites after all. They will probably go for 7 games and having their crap beaten out of them but they remain contenders.

    It happens that the former WC final contenders Memphis and Dallas have found their old ways.

    I think this season is the best in a long while because of all the close fights just in the first round. If the first round is this good already then the next ones are sure be amazing.
