NBA Playoffs Thoughts

I watched game four of Heat-Pistons last night where the Pistons tied the series 2-2. I wouldn't be surprised if this one was over in six. The winner? Detroit. Which means I'll be stuck listening to their annoying-ass announcer for the Finals. The rationale? Shaq looks hurt, slow, old, and just plain ineffective. It was painful to watch him heave up hook shots in the 10-15 foot range. Shaq, why don't you just back das Wallaces the f down and dunk? Pretend that they're Kobe. The only way the Heat come back is if Kobe starts attending the games. I feel bad for the Big Aristotle, because he's playing pretty crappy now and it's only the first year of his deal. It's only getting worse folks. To be clear, I love Shaq. This is the man who once called himself the Pythagorean Theorem because, "there's no answer for me"*. I wish he would take this series over because I hate Kobe and I want Diesel to be proved right. Either way I guess - Kobe blows.

I don't think the Suns will do it. But it could be a lot worse than being down 3-1 and having two of the remaining three games at home. Amare Stoudamire is a man. He's a man who went eighth in the draft his year. Note to self: look up chumps drafted ahead of him. I'll update this post later with stats and stuff.
