Wellwellwellwellwell!!! It's that time of year - the NBA regular season has ended and the pairings for the championship run of 2004 are posted. Let's see if I can get this right: Eastern Conference: (1) Indiana will play (8) Boston (4) Miami will play (5) New Orleans (3) Detroit will play (6) Milwaukee (2) New Jersey will play (7) New York Western Conference: (1) Minnesota will play (8) Denver (4) Sacramento will play (5) Dallas (3) San Antonio will play (6) Memphis (2) Los Angeles will play (7) Houston Pacers have homecourt throughout the playoffs with the top record in the league (61-21). It would be just like the Pacers, after all the pain and existential angst they've caused us over the past 10 years, to finally win the championship with a group of players the fans have yet to bond with. Nonetheless, WE'LL TAKE IT!!!!! GO PACERS!!!!

It's hard for me to be excited about the playoffs this years since the Blazers aren't in it for the first time in 20 some years. I will root for the Pacers along with you though GAL since you have our man Jermaine. Have to cheer for him. By far the biggest mistake the Blazer management ever made was to send him to you. Awful. (Except for maybe taking Sam Bowie over Michael Jordan way back when!) Ugh. And of course being a Portland fan I have to take Houston over the Lakers. It isn't looking to good for them though. Dang those Lakers. Can't root for Detroit, Rasheed doesn't deserve to be there. When it comes down to it, would love to see Indiana vs. Dallas..or Houston...or Sac...or Minnesota...anyone but the Lakers!

Co-sign that, Jewels. Now if Miami/New Orleans could decide who gets the honor of having their hinies kicked next by the Pacers, we could get back to the business of observing the Pacers' historic and textbook championship run. (Pleasegawdletithappen.)

Hi, Guys, haven't been around for awhile, but I just had to drop in and brag on my Spurs. What do you think of Tony Parker? Isn't he unbelievable? Ladytex, I have done that very same thing in past years, but I told myself that I was not going to do it this year. I have hung in there through every game so far even when I was so nervous I was almost sick to my stomach. Go, Spurs, Go. Tiger, I am a die hard Spur fan but don't go away. Laker fans are people too.

I don't see why the Spurs are collapsing, but the Lakers are winning fair and square, so more power to 'em. Now, the Pacers - WTF? A tie series with Miami? Pacers need to put this to bed the next two games.

Just wondering if those of you following the Lakers/Spurs series are noticing the officiating lacking against the Lakers? It's the same with the Pistons/Nets series. DH is convinced that David Stern wants a Lakers/Nets final because those are the biggest TV markets (LA/NY). At first I thought it was sour grapes, but the last 2 Pistons games I've watched have been incredible! It's the like the refs are watching a different game, not just horrible calls, but sometimes they don't even know who committed a foul and confuse each other!

Tiger...I'm here and a full-fledged Lakers Fan!! Go Lakers!! ...and how about those incredible lucky shots in the last game....pure athleticism imho... Yesterday at work, the Ass't Director pulled out a little tin in the shape of a basketball and it had the Lakers logo on it. He gently opened the tin and offered me a "taste of victory"...LOL!!

Carrie, you are not the only one wondering the same thing. It's pretty obvious sometimes. The NBA hates it when the spurs are in the finals because it is such a small market.
