Impressed or disappointed?
« on: May 02, 2008, 02:40:35 PM »
What teams/matchups have impressed and which have disappointed?

Spurs/Suns - Impressed by the Spurs.  The Suns had a shot at 3 or the 4 Spurs wins, they just failed to pull out the wins because the Spurs flat out played better when it mattered the most.

Celtics/Hawks - Impressed by the Hawks.  Nobody gave them a shot at winning 1 game let alone 2, after looking shell shocked they came home and held their own.

Pistons/Sixers - Disappointed by the Pistons.  They should have wrapped this up in 5 games tops, but they are legends in their own minds and took the Sixers lightly and it cost them two games.

Hornets/Mavs - Impressed by the Hornets and disappointed with the Mavs.  Hornets didn't falter in the playoffs and the Mavs sputtered out like an American made car.

Jazz/Rockets - Very impressed with the Rockets.  With Yao they should have been able to win this series, without Yao they did not stand a chance to win more than a game.  After being down 3-0 the Rockets should have folded, BIG props to them.

Cavs/Wiz - Impressed with the thuggery.
"History shouldn't be a mystery"
"Our story is real history"
"Not his story"

"My people's culture was strong, it was pure"
"And if not for that white greed"
"It would've endured"

"Laker hate causes blindness"

Spurs/Suns - Impressed with the Spurs poise and Popavich's adjustments.  Disapointed in the Suns poise and D'Antoni's attempts at adjustments.  The Boris Diaw adjusment was f'in retarded.

Celtics/Hawks -  Impressed with the Hawks not backing down.  Disapointed in the Celtics looking like an all-star team and not being able to put away the Hawks.

Pistons/Sixers - .  Impressed with the Sixers not backing down.  Disapointed in the Pistons for playing down to the level of their compeition.

Hornets/Mavs -  Impressed with Chris Paul being a certified PIMP in the playoffs first time out.  Disapointed with Avery Johnson letting his squad straight ignore him.

Jazz/Rockets -  Impressed with Houston not backing down.  Disapointed that the Jazz didn't finish this in 5 because Yao Ming is not even around.

Cavs/Wiz - Impressed by Caron Butler stepping up when Arenas is out.  Disapointed in Lebron for letting a fued start with a no-name player.  To the point where he got Jay-z to diss Stevenson in a song (I have  alink if you want to hear it lol)
