What happend to the Heat? Oh yea they got beat by the PACERS!!!!!!!! Nice Series win, now you gotta sweep the 76ers..

Tbh, it's kinda dumb how dominant the Heat are in most people's chises in terms of record. They really aren't that hard to beat in game and they aren't that good in real life either. This is coming from a Heat fan too. lol.

Whole lotta close upsets. Can't believe the Clippers and Warriors pushed their series to game 7's. Can't believe the Hawks lost to the Pistons either. rofl. Blazers got spanked.

Oh well.

Round 1 IN THE BOOKS!

[Skins2K9]

I want the Magic to beat the Cavs in game 7.Great game Mike

[Justo]

wow this chise is amazing i just read all 65 pages lol

[mfbmike]

wow this chise is amazing i just read all 65 pages lol

Whoa, that's insane. Glad you've liked it thus far. :D

[LC AAU]

Nice job winning the series. 2-3 defense rapes the 76ers because they have no shooters.

[mfbmike]

Yeah, I'm always able to sag off Andre Miller and clog passing lanes because he isn't a good outside shooter. Louis Williams always does well for them off the bench though.

[Maestro]

Congrats man.

Nice job winning the series. 2-3 defense rapes the 76ers because they have no shooters.

u think it's good? whenever i run it in my chise, every freakin team smokes all their 3's cuz the defense doesn't shift

[LC AAU]

Only against the 76ers, LOL.

[mfbmike]

Thanks guys. Miami was pretty easy to be honest because of the lack of size down low. With Magliore injured, Haslem/Beasley and Sene were running center for them. Once I figured out how to slow down Beasley from dominating my big men on offense, it was smooth sailing.

Rofl, same here. I've never been successful using 2-3 on the cpu. Works really well in online play though lol.

2nd round breakdown coming up.

[mfbmike]

2009 NBA Playoffs 2nd Round Breakdown:







#1 vs #5

The Suns are coming off a tough 7 game series against the Clippers while the Spurs managed to fend off a young Blazers team in only 5 games. Will fatigue slow down the Suns in this series or will they finally be able to get past the Spurs after being eliminated by them 2 years in a row?

Our Prediction: Suns in 6

#2 vs #3

The Lakers look to be losing steam as they were actually down 3-2 at one point to the 7th seed Warriors in the 1st round. While they managed to escape the first round, we can't see them stopping a surging Rockets team who eliminated a very hot Nuggets team in the 1st round. When the dust settles, the Rockets should see themselves at the Western Conference Finals.

Our Prediction: Rockets in 7

_________________________________________



#5 vs #8

The Pacers might've come into this years playoff as the 8th seed but with the way they manhandled a battered and bruised Heat team in the 1st round, who cares what seed they were? However, this Sixers team just knocked off the reigning NBA champs in the Celtics and look to be gaining momentum as well. This is going to be a series to watch.

Our Prediction: Pacers In 7

#2 vs #6

We all remember what Lebron did to the Pistons 2 seasons ago in the Eastern Conference finals. Will he be able to duplicate his performance this year in the 2nd round against a Pistons team who surprised many by shutting down the young Hawks in the 1st round? A true Central Division rivalry is brewing.

Our Prediction: Cavs in 7
