Rambabe this is for you and Trublu and my grandaughter. Looks like another great SVU proboards match-up. The Cleveland Cavaliers versus the Boston Celtics. I no longer follow basketball like I used to but promised my son's little girl I would watch the playoffs. ;D The Cavs came off a bitter series with the Washington Wizards. Win or lose against the Celtics, I believe the Celtics have more class. Now my guestion. Does the winner of this play the Lakers. Sorry, not as into as I was for years.

Thanks for starting this thread Finaddict. Here are the pairings for round 2 which has already started: Eastern Conference Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Boston Celtics Orlando Magic vs. Detroit Pistons -Pistons won game 1 The Atlanta Hawks gave the Celtics a scare and forced a game 7 in the first round. Western Conference Utah Jazz vs. Los Angeles Lakers-Lakers won game 1 San Antonio Spurs vs. New Orleans Hornets-Hornets won game 1 The winner of the Boston/Cleveland series plays the winner of the Detroit/Orlando series The winner of the Los Angeles/Utah series plays the winner of the San Antonio/New Orleans series. Those winners will meet for the Championship. I hope thats not too confusing, lol!

I usually only watch snipits of the games and the highlights on ESPN. Some of games are on at dinner time so I am able to watch while I eat. Weekends I do better, lol.

Well the Cavs are down 0-2 to the Celtics. So sorry, Fin. The next 2 games are in Cleveland and I will root for them. I want this to be a good series with at least 6 games. I don't want a 4-0 wipeout.

The Cavs pulled it out and now its back to Boston on Sunday for a Game 7 SHOWDOWN! I am hoping for a great game and not a blowout. May the best team win.
The Pistons won their series with the Magic 4-1. The Lakers beat the Jazz and won their series 4-2. The Spurs and Hornets play a Game 7 on Monday in New Orleans.
