NBA Playoffs 2014

Dublin Red Devil

Its there for the Pacers if we have the will to win in.

Nuri Sahin

Pacers are in the DANGER ZONE.

Teague with 29 with 3 mins remaining, Hawks up 4.

BQQ

For a 3pt shooting team, the Hawks are having a terrible night.
9-33 from behind the arc so far (27%)

And they're still very much in it. :eek:

A lot of them open looks too.

PizzamanIRL

Hawks crowd need a kick up the arse to get them into it.

Nuri Sahin

A chance for a 2 for 1 here for the Hawks.

Nuri Sahin

Idiot. Game over. Game 7 in Indiana.

LMAO, fouling only down 2 with 33 secs left.

Dublin Red Devil

We live to fight another day. Paul George. Cool as ice closes out the game

Paully D

Late game execution for the Hawks has been disgraceful.

Presuming George doesn't get suspended, the Hawks won't be winning a game 7 in Indiana. Tonight was their chance and they blew it.

Pacers D on the perimeter was much better tonight, partly due to the fact Cope was out there instead of Scola.

Hawks cooled down, but they were due a bad shooting night.

West was big tonight. Win or go home on Saturday.

Nuri Sahin

OKC up 20 with 5 left in the 3Q. I want to say this is done, but after last night.. :pac:

PizzamanIRL

Reporter asking West what are they fighting for in game 7. What do you think? Genius question.

Yup, shat themselves in Game 4 and 6. It'll be Wizards v Pacers.

NufcNavan

Irony.

Dublin Red Devil

George and West came up big for us tonight. Great performances. But I don't think we would have won tonight without Mahinmi. His 6 reb 2 blk and 1 stl came at times when he was needed

Steven Adams never getting played by Brooks is a travesty. His defensive activity is outstanding. Jason Kidd trusts his rookie centre Plumlee and has played him in the playoffs, Brooks doesn't have confidence in Adams but still plays Fisher. Smh

Nuri Sahin

36-10 for KD. Back to OKC for Game 7.

Korrayls

KD played tonight...bout time

Dublin Red Devil

Nuri Sahin

Still banking on him being AIG's brother.

Carcharodon

What kind of foul was that by Davis, more like a rugby tackle
Eh, just looked at it again, more clumsy than anything.

Carcharodon

And Warriors get a deserved win, definitely have the capability of winning in LA but I would be surprised if they did.
They have to play up tempo basketball and aggressive defense, quick open looks on transition suits them.
Stephen should be running off screens all day, Iggy needs to be more aggressive on offense, he is too athletic for most of his matchup.
Poor David Lee will be glad to see the back of Griffin and Jordan, he has had a rough time with them.

Wow, so many game sevens for the first round!

gold out the door to the off season :P

But seriously I think game 7 is a coin toss......Atlanta have won in Indiana.....and if they are shooting hot from 3....i'd favour the hawks

This is deadly, three game 7s on saturday, and could potentially have three more on Sunday depending on how results go tonight. Last year there was just one in the first round.

Nuri Sahin

Silly foul trouble, a shocking 3Q and a quiet game from CP3 as a whole, he looked to be not moving freely at times I noticed cost them that game. Golden State really did their best to blow that game towards the end.

I'd love to agree with you, but I can't. Hawks have blown it. One bad quarter in Game 4 and that implosion at the end of the fourth last night will have done them in psychologically. I would loved to be proved wrong though! They have looked better on the road I suppose, but that all time stat of Game 7's on the road for them and in general for road teams isn't inspiring.

That's what the Warriors do, get a lead by pushing the ball and going on some good runs with aggressive basketball then poo their pants by trying to manage the clock, they loose their rhythm and take bad shots. As good as Curry is, he is not the greatest ball handler at times, too many turnovers.
Totally agree about cp 3, he looks beat up, a lot of niggling injuries, that's the nature of his game, being so aggressive on both ends

Indie.

Really puts into perspective how bad Roy Hibberts series has been.
