Atlanta killed Orlando with the mid range jumpers. Nelson heated up in the second half after a quiet 1st half and Howard gave away some stupid fouls espesh his tech.

Hornets beat Lakers
Grizzlies Beat Spurs
Thunder beat Nuggets
Boston beat NY on a Ray Allen buzzer beater.

Would seriously love it if this season ends up being the most unlikely finals series ever.

Boston beat NY on a Ray Allen buzzer beater.


The buzzer beater was so good he beat the buzzer by a whole 11 seconds! Melo missed a long three subsequently which would have won the Knicks the game. Apparently there was a pretty contentious offensive foul called on Melo with around 20 seconds left that allowed Ray Ray to hit the three put the C's in front.

An awesome first round of games so far, CP3 was HUGE in the Hornet's upset win over the Lakers with 33 points, 14 assists, 7 rebounds, 4 steals and just 2 turnovers. Another big upset with the 8th placed Grizzlies snatching a win in San Antonio.

I would seriously love to quite the day job, get NBA League Pass and a spend the next month or so eating chips on the couch watching these stories unfold.

Offensive foul on Carmelo was shit!

Then on Rays three, KG clearly moved a long way to take D out on a screen that freed Allen up. Compare that to the screen called on Carmelo in the first quater, and KGs was one hundred times worse. NY to feel very hard done by in that game. Very disappointing!

Man these referees are doing a good job of butchering some of these games. Chicago v Pacers..... Wow they were bad in the last quater. Just horrible. Really affecting these games!

Well, Spoiler alert....




Atlanta knock out Orlando in the 1st round. Think that tends to make Dwight Howard want to look elsewhere at the end of next year.
