    Did anybody see Barkley pretty much make fun of Webber for saying phily might win this series?? Barkley at half time said magic would sweep.... maybe he should stick to cup cakes. :D

    Rafer had 2 shots late in the game: a wide open 3 and a lightly contested floater. Both were way off. He had a pretty decent game other than that.

    Charles Barkley is brought in for entertainment purposes only. Everyone know the guy is a pure knuckle head. The guy is also delusional, he thinks the world is laughing with him when infact they are laughing at him.

    Skip played decent, but turkoglu failed to show up.

    Lee would have been pretty good in a rockets uniform.

    If you could take a shooting percentage for Barkley's predictions, he'd be shooting like 25 percent.

    Which is why when Barkley doesn't pick your team, it is usually a good thing?

    We still have 2 games to go, but couldn't this be a record for most first game upsets in the playoffs?

    Only 2 out of 6 higher seeds have won so far.

    Howard and Orlando's defense is overrated!

    But I think it was his shot that got them to the 2nd round. ;)

    I could be wrong though.

    If Orlando loses this series and we finally beat Blazers, do you think some of the 1st team votes for J Howard would swing back to Yao? I hope so, and that would be nice to see Yao voted in the 1st team!! :cool:

    I don't think Juwan Howard or Josh Howard has any 1st team votes. :)

    I think they both will be in the 1st team. Howard will take the PF position.

    yea really curious about this. someone should look it up, though im sure espn or tnt will show like a graphic or talk about it postgame. especially if miami wins, though they arent really underdogs they are still the lower seed.

    Don't think so. D Howard is officially listed as a C. I think Nowinski would have a chance to be voted as PF in the 1st team.

    lol but to answer your question, didn't they already vote on 1st team before the playoffs started?
