Impressed with the Sixers in game 1...

Philly/Indiana ECFs go!

Frankly, I don't like either team, but I despise the Celtics more since they have Garnett on there team! This guy palms the ball, travels and engages in all other forms of malfeasance while masquerading as a basketball player! Besides that, I don't like his attitude, either!

I like Philly, but they suffer from having too many ballhandlers imo. They don't have enough shooters or big men who can score.

lets send them al fatterson for free

I get the comps and we've been in agreement on the Jazz attacking the Spurs fast. I just don't think Celtics are on par with Spurs and I don't see the 6ers as an 8th seed on par with a Jazz 8th seed. The Jazz overachieved to get into the playoffs and I credit coaching for that. The sixers were a much better team early on and fell to the 8th seed and I blame coaching for that too.
Here's a video that puts things into perspective for me. The Jazz didn't have anyone who could do this to the Spurs.

IMHO jazz underachieved this season by al jefefrson ball hoggery, and lack of corbin's coaching. we might never know the truth unless you havea time machine in your basement and we go back in time and take out corbin jefferson, bell, watson, howard for the whole season.
but i just think jazz >>> sixers(if you take coaching out of the equation

It was idiotic. Doc changed his mind after 10 seconds run off. If you are going to play the FT game, do it early as possible.

I get what he was trying to do but it seems silly and failed miserably. He put pressure on Philly to hit FT's and wanted to make sure time ran out on a final shot. It was coming down to one last shot anyway so I guess not chancing a long rebound miss makes sense. I'd rather have the extra two-three seconds and a shot at being down by only one than less time and down by two or three.

I understand too, but if you are going to go that route, start as soon as the ball is inbounded, not 10 seconds after the fact.
