I'm surprised Detroit won. Orlando had a lead, but blew it. I figured the Cavs would take at least one at home. I haven't looked at LeBron's box score yet, but I imagine it couldn't have been as dreadful as his first two games.

Utah ties the series at 2. I only saw bits and pieces of this game but a late first half run by LA left me thinking they would end up pulling this game out as Utah had em down but Kobe pulled the Lakers to even at half time. Went to dinner so missed the second half but looks like the Jazz played a great second evening the series at 2 games each.
Now both teams head back to LA for game 5

Home games have made all the series competitive again. Whoever has the most home games will likely win the second round match-ups (Detroit, Boston, L.A. Lakers, and New Orleans).

Cleveland pulls away in the 4th quarter to even the series at 2 games a piece.

This was a good close game from what I could tell when I peeked in but in the end LeBron hit a big three ball to get himself going as the Cavs pulled away with a 88 to 77 win.

Detroit closes out the Magic 4 games to 1. I really thought the Magic would make this a series and probably go 7 games with the Magic possibly stealing the series. It was great for the Pistons to win a couple of games with C. Billups out of the lineup.

N.O. goes up 3 games to 2 on the defending World Champs by winning last night 101 to 79.

N.O. pulled away in the second half after trailing at half time---and held S.A to 32 second half pts in the win. Game 6 back in San Tone.

yea it would be great to see game 7 of SA and NO series.
Both teams are very good teams.

A pretty good game to watch tonight as Cleveland came out strong early and built at 12 pt lead before Rondo came in and made two quick three's right before half time to cut the lead down as Boston went on a 14-3 run and never really looked back in the second half although Cleveland to their credit did make it close in the closing minutes but really I didn't think Boston was ever in any real danger as they finally put Cleveland away winning 96-89 and taking a three games to two lead as we head back to Cleveland.

I missed the game tonight but just saw the final box score and the defending champs push the series to a game 7 with a 99 to 80 win. This series has been pretty cool to watch and no doubt game 7 could be the best game yet. We will really see what NO is made of now.
