NBA 2010-2011: Playoffs are here!

If I remember right, No_Hablo_Ingles actually lives in Atlanta. So that's actually legit I guess. He just never cheered before because, well it's the Hawks. You know their history. On the other hand, this is textbook hopping on the bandwagon (despite him living in the area) considering they've finally advanced. Plus it gives him added incentive to cheer against the Bulls.DJ_Magneto

Easy to stick with a crappy team when you have a backup good team.

[QUOTE="DarkOfKnight"][QUOTE="sergemyster8"]Damn, I wanted Magic-Bulls, Hawks-Bulls just sounds boring:|.JML897

The Bulls can't stop Howard and if the Magic get their 3-pointers going the Bulls would be in a lot of trouble. I'm a lot more optimistic vs. the Hawks.

Not to mention Rose driving the lane against Howard is scary as a Bulls fan. I think he's been hurt twice trying to do that.

Who says you were a celtics fan 5-6 years ago?

Top 15? Under what category? In Texas? Maaaybe.

[QUOTE="Arbiterisl33t69"]I'm so sick and tired of the Miami cHeat, and can't stand Lebron James.. Yes I am a Lakers fan, yes my favorite player is Kobe, and I know LBJ and Kevin Durant and a few other big name players are a bit better than him now, Kobe's getting old and the injuries aren't helping (but he did show some Number 8 Afro magic Tuesday), but they lack the willpower and competition Kobe always had. MJ said it himself, Kobe is better than Lebron. Kobe doesn't care in what team James is, as long as he wins. That's what I like to see in a player, and Kobe chooses to play AGAINST the best, not WITH the best. Mad respects for D. Wade, though. I've always liked him, great player, and I have nothing against Chris Bosh, but everytime I see him it's like I'm watching Jurassic Park. I'm sorry but he looks just like a Raptor (lol)TH1Sx1SxSPARTA

Antoine Walker dude, I know this and I'm not even a Celtics fan. Like previously stated, you stink.Bobbles

Antoine Walker was an all-star, if I was a Celtic fan then I would've definitely remembered his name.

In his prime he was one of the more well-known guys in the league, he was even on the cover of sports games.

The Rockets are pretty much the definition of mediocre. Mediocre doesn't mean bad, it means "meh".

I'd say 14/15 is right smack dab in the middle. Just sayin'... :PDJ_Magneto

Top 10? Which of these teams would you say the Rockets are better than?

1. Bulls
2. Spurs
3. Lakers
4. Heat
5. Celtics
6. Mavs
7. Thunder
8. Magic
9. Nuggets
10. Blazers

They aren't better than Memphis, Hawks or Knicks.

Do you think Howard is going to leave Orlando when he gets a chance? I know about every team in the league has room for a DPOTY and dominant young center. I would say more teams will go nuts over him then when Lebron was shopping around.Lostboy1224

So? These teams are better now, seeing as how 2 of em are still in the playoffs. Where are the rockets?

So first NHI says that the Rockets played like a top 10 team even though their record didn't show it.
His proof? The records against other teams, which is exactly the thing he said you shouldn't judge the Rockets by.

The Cavs were 3-1 against the Knicks, nobody would say the Cavs are a better team.

This is rather simple to understand. Overall records deals with A > B > C > D... which is a logical fallacy in sports, head to head match ups however is a much better indicator since it is a simple A > C

A loss is a loss is a loss. Good teams find a way to win close games. Otherwise they are bad or oh idk what is that word im looking for. Mediocre.
