All 6 games have playoff implications:

Miami needs to keep winning in order to hold on to the #2 seed.

Memphis needs to stay in front of Denver in order to have home-court over them in the 1st round. Of course, if they play too well they would find themselves in the 4/5 matchup with Dallas, so it's a slippery slope.

Chicago is chasing philly while NJ is chasing Miami.

Spurs are chasing us and are trying to outlast Dallas.

Sacramento is trying to stay ahead of LA and Utah for the 7th seed.

LA is playing catch-up with Sacramento, while keeping distance between them and Utah for the last playoff spot.

Suns/Kings should be good. That's looking like a first round matchup. Kings lead the season series 2-1.

Sonics gave SAS a hell of a game last time beating them at the buzzer .
They do it twice and Dallas overtakes them.

Ginoboli, Bosh, Wade all not playing tonight.

Hey check out the Spurs/Sonics game on NBA TV....

They're using SIDELINE-CAM and overhead-came angles the ENTIRE game...

Weird shit.

I wish the NBA TV HD channel came with mine. I have a channel called "NBA HD" and there is never anything on it [smilie=angryfire.g:

I see they're doing the "silent game" thing with it too. I guess they want it to feel like you're in the stands or something.

Miami/Toronto is really facinating:

Shaq with pretty much NO help at all, vs Toronto with possibly the smallest lineup in the NBA, so they're putting 2 and 3 guys on him the whole game.

Shaq has 15, 12 and 9 assists through 3 quarters, but Toronto's stayed within 5 points.

Meanwhile,Toronto is just bombing away at will against miami's crappy permieter D.

Shaq with a career-high 10th assist, good for his 2nd career triple-double.

Unfortunately, he also has 5 fouls.

Miami wins 106-97.

SA after a close half has pulled away from Seattle, 70-54.

Memphis and San Antonio win easily.

Ben Gordon coming up clutch yet again against NJ.

Vince scores 43, but the Nets lose in Chicago by 2.

Miami pretty much has the #2 seed wrapped up now. They're 3 games ahead of the Nets now.

Vince had 17 points in the final 1:55 of that game. [smilie=arrgh.jpg] 9 points in the last 17 seconds alone. [smilie=arrgh.jpg] [smilie=arrgh.jpg]

What cable/satellite provider you on FP22? I'm on Comcast and just HD/DVR service and there's this channel called INHD that features almost every NBA TV game in HD, even though I don't have any NBA channels at all.

Silent games are eerie to me. I watched a Magic game on it earlier this season, too quiet for me and I usually like to hear a good analyst talking.

I've got Dish Network because they are the only company in LA that has TNT-HD, plus they have all of the FSN networks (So I can watch the Detroit Sports Report to see post-game stuff, etc from across the country). The only place here that has NBATV-HD doesn't have League Pass, so that's pretty much out. I end up having to wait for ESPN, TNT, or ABC to catch games in HD.

Ohh well, at least the playoffs are all in High Def. Hopefully in 4-5 years I'll be able to watch League Pass-HD. [smilie=thegame.gif]

Nets have lost 2 of their last 3.
And the hype machine dies finally.

Shaq with a career-high 10th assist, good for his 2nd career triple-double.

Unfortunately, he also has 5 fouls.

Is 10 assists a new career high or did he just tie his old one? If its new, how did he get his other triple-double, blocks?

43 by Vince and they lose? WTF did Jefferson do? Does Kidd even play anymore? How does Kidd have a guy on his team drop 43 and still lose?

RJ did 22 points, and Nonads kicked in another 17.

The problem was -- Kidd had a lousy game, and the paper-thin Nets bench was used as toiletry by the Bulls.

Thanks for the info Mxy. I just heard on the radio that Shacks first triple double did include blocks, 15 of them.
