What can you see happening?

You getting criticized for reasonable posts because of the reputation you developed with your initial posts.

I personally think you're doing alright lately.

Thanks for your support.

Can't look through this entire thread but Mo going for 19 pts and 10 assists......awesome.

Clinton is getting a bad rap around here. I can see it happening.

I think the kid has been a good-albeit overly-prolific poster lately.

Agreed, he's settled in. At first I was questionable but I have realized that he is very intelligent in certain aspects.

Not sure if this has been noted but LeBron seems to be concentrating more on his free throws and it shows. 6 of 7 and only 1 3pt attempt.

So call me paranoid if you will.

When my team goes seven minutes without scoring once the other side goes to a zone and packs it in in the paint, I do began to fret.

The Cavs, during the stretch when the the lead shrunk to 7 were tossing up awful looking threes and looked like a team which had never seen a zone before and thought that more than one pass before shooting is illegal.

It was the kind of stretch which helped send them home early in last year's playoff.

Plenty to work on before the next game.

Didn't want to make a whole new thread for this, but I am trying to get up to Cleveland for a playoff game with my bro, who has never been to a Cavs game before...trying to plan around college classes is a pain in the ass, there has got to be a way to be able to plan in advance. Won't be games A or B, but still able to find decently prices tix for C and D..which could be fuckin Game 5 or 7..or it could be Game 1 and 2.

Is there any freakin way to plan ahead that far when it comes to playoff schedules? Doesn't seem like it..

Well, and I could be wrong on this, I think each round has a specific start date. However, they do not schedule the games in advance for obvious reasons.

Well that might help a little bit, lol. I'll look around.

Yea, NBA.com should have all the game for the next few weeks up on their website already. The later games will just be labelled TBD since they don't know who will be playing.

So there is a date for the 2nd round to start, or does it just depend on how long the series' go? I'm starting to wonder if there will be any 7 game series, lol.

Hmm what are these flash seats things? Lol. that might actually be useful in helping me out..

End of Round 1/Beginning of Round 2 will almost definitely be the weekend of May 1st/2nd.

If there are no 7-game series then my guess is Round 2 will start on Sat May 1st.

I was shocked at times in the games where he didnt pull up and shoot a 3. He could have easily taken 5 open 3's. Glad he didn't though.
