[simmytbone]

Hey guys,

Today is the day

The Final Day of the Regular Season of the NBA 2014/2015 and everyone is jocking in position

Tonight on ESPN, you will see the Charlotte Hornets taking on the Toronto Raptors followed by the Indiana Pacers taking on the Memphis Grizzlies

also, NBA TV will not only cover those 2 games, but also, 12 other games as well

10 of them will be on @ 8 EST/7 CST/5 PST/3 HST

San Antonio Spurs vs New Orleans Pelicans
Atlanta Hawks vs Chicago Bulls
Washington Wizards vs. Cleveland Cavaliers
Portland Trailblazers vs Dallas Mavericks which will also air on Fox Sports Southwest
Utah Jazz vs Houston Rockets
Boston Celtics vs Milwaukee Bucks
Oklahoma City Thunder vs Minnesota Timberwolves
Orlando Magic vs Brooklyn Nets

and in other action, you will see the Detroit Piston battle the New York Knicks and the Miami Heat who just got eliminated from Playoff Contention thanks to the victories for the Boston Celtics and the Indiana Pacers last night will take on the Philadelphia 76ers

and @ 10:30 EST/9:30 CST/7:30 PST/5:30 HST, you will see 2 other games as the Denver Nuggets square off against the Golden State Warriors and in a California Showdown, it will be the Sacramento Kings taking on the Los Angeles Lakers

Now, we do know this:

In the Eastern Conference, the Atlanta Hawks clinched the Southeastern Division and the #1 seed and they are waiting to host either the Indiana Pacers or the Brooklyn Nets while the Cleveland Cavaliers have clinched both the Central Division and the #2 seed and they will take on the #7 seed the Boston Celtics and the Washington Wizards have clinched the #5 seed and the Milwaukee Bucks have clinched the #6 seed

We also know that the Chicago Bulls and the Toronto Raptors (who clinched the Atlantic Division for the 2nd straight year) have both got home court advantages and we could see either the Bulls/Wizards Return Match and the Raptors/Bucks Match or we could see the Bulls hosting their longtime Division Rival Bucks and the Raptors taking on the Wizards and that could be an AWESOME Series

Meanwhile....

In the Western Conference, we do know this:

The Golden State Warriors have clinched the Pacific Division for the 1st time in almost 4 decades and they also clinched the #1 seed and they are waiting to host either the New Orleans Pelicans or the OKC Thunder

The Portland Trailblazers have clinched the Northwestern Division for the 1st time in 16 years since 1999 which was the year the San Antonio Spurs won their very 1st NBA Title

and the Dallas Mavericks have clinched Lucky #7, but they are waiting to see who they will play against in Round 1 of the NBA Playoffs

also, the Southwestern Division Title is still on the line as well as the #2 seed

Checkout NBA TV Tonight for the 14 games to see who will get what seed and who's in and who's out

Why do you even bother posting about NBA basketball when most of the people on here don't care about it? I wouldn't waste my time doing that if I were you. You and I are the only ones who care about the NBA. Most of the people on here like football, baseball and wrestling. That's why I don't even bother posting on here that much. I hope Indiana makes the playoffs and not Brooklyn. I think they'll be a difficult opponent for Atlanta than Brooklyn. Boston is gonna be playing my hometown Cleveland in the first round. That should be a interesting series especially since Boston kicked their asses last weekend 117-78 even though most of Cleveland's starters didn't play hahahahahahahahahahaha. That's still no excuse though because their bench players should've played better than that.


I hope New Orleans makes the playoffs instead of Oklahoma because Kevin Durant and Serge Ibaka aren't playing. I like Anthony Davis. Russell Westbrook is a ballhog even though I'm a fan. He needs to stop being selfish and pass the ball. He scored 54 points against Indiana on Sunday and that's too many points. That's why Oklahoma lost LOL. Oklahoma is probably gonna make the playoffs because they're gonna beat Minnesota today and New Orleans might lose to the Spurs today. If New Orleans loses, they'll miss the playoffs.

Sorry, but I LOVE posting about Basketball, but also, I do like to post about the OLD SCHOOL NBA, that's what makes me a fan of the NBA

I wish that ESPN would stop being so DAMN Nitpicky about EVERYTHING

also, there's a guy that I talk to that said that he likes Nascar over the NBA and I just shook my head b/c he thinks that NASCAR is the greatest sport

That's a joke, IMO LOL

What's your problem with ESPN? I don't watch race car driving and that sport sucks compared to the NBA. Former NBA player Brad Daugherty who played for my hometown Cleveland is a race car driving announcer. He recently got a job with ESPN as a NBA studio broadcaster. I saw him today talking about he thinks Brooklyn is gonna be a problem for Atlanta in the playoffs hahahahahahahahahahaha. I can't believe he said that. Atlanta will probably sweep them or Brooklyn will win one game. Joe Johnson who plays for Brooklyn used to play for Atlanta and he should've stayed with Atlanta. Brooklyn will never win a championship LOL. I was glad New Orleans made the playoffs but Golden State is gonna beat them.



You see what I'm talking about with Russell Westbrook? He scored 37 points yesterday against Minnesota in the first half and he didn't score in the 2nd half. Oklahoma blew them out but they didn't make the playoffs and I'm glad they didn't because Russell is a ballhog. As long as he continues to play like that, Oklahoma will never win a championship. He did win the scoring title yesterday and he told a reporter that he didn't give a sh*t about that because he wants to be in the playoffs. I can't believe the reporter asked him that ******** question LOL. My picks for the playoffs are in the east, Cavs, Bulls, Hawks, Raptors and in the west, Rockets, Spurs, Blazers, Warriors. Who you picking Simmytbone?

I like basketball. I haven't really kept up much with it this season. I do know my LA Lakers stunk this season and aren't in the playoffs, but the LA Clippers are. I'd like to be informed about who is winning and who is advancing and all that. so I'd like to have you guys who are more knowledgeable about basketball them I am post here so I can keep up! I'm gonna try to catch a couple games too.

My hubby and I start really getting into it when it comes down to the finals . But I'd like to know what is happening before that ! I like the Chicago Bulls too!!!

I hope for the Cavs all the way this year...if they can beat Boston in the playoffs this week...they're a shoe-in...if they lose anytime in the playoffs...then it's official...Cleveland's Cursed!

[simmytbone]

Well I don't know who to pick, but as Magic Johnson would say, it's hard to predict who would win in the playoffs and so, we're just gonna have to expect the unexpected, I guess

But I do know this:

Ever since Rajon Rondo left Boston for Dallas, the Celtics have been winning w/o him, but the Mavericks has a problem with Rondo, mainly b/c Rondo has a problem with Coach Rick Carlisle

I like to see the Bulls and the Spurs do well in the playoffs
