Yeah Reggie is awful. That was a great play by Dirk.

Reggie had some hilarious word jumble early on.. I can't remember what it was.

"Adversidility" or something like that

hahah yeah that's it. He's bad. Pairing him up with Dick Stockton doesn't help much. I don't hate Stockton, but going from a Marv / Kerr booth to this is a bummer.

It's Buckner, not Butler.

Was anyone else loling when Dampier came in and the crowd started to chant "Dampier sucks"??

Anyone else hoping for a warriors / suns playoff match up?

See that's where I'm so conflicted about this. Right now I really just think something about GS completely flusters the hell out of Dallas. I think if they get past the first round it'll be high quality matchups. Whereas I think if GS gets past the first they won't do much in the second.

So as sweet as a legendary upset would be to witness, it might ruin the greatness that the western conference playoffs are supposed to be.

I do see your point, I just think that the one factor that will make the Warriors a contender in any series is this home court advantage... I've watched much of the playoffs so far and I haven't seen a crowd that can carry a team the way that there's does.

Plus they create all sorts of match up problems for several of the teams left.

not sure where the foul was on that Dirk play, but that was a nice shot.

refs are getting a little too whistle happy, on both ends. I thought the Dirk foul was ticky tack as well as the following foul on Stackhouse.
