Friday NBA Hoops Roundup

Cavs series is over, let's face it the Pistons will play to win and try to get a game, until.................they fall behind by three or four baskets, then they roll up shop and want to go home. Pistons trying to win: Stuckey, Rip and McDyess, looking to go home: Rasheed.

76ers and Magic is turning out to be the upset series and the 76ers have been impressive with their energy. The Magic's shot selection is questionable: their outside shooters Hedo, Courtney Lee and Lewis are shooting way too streaky and when they throw it inside to Howard his post moves and ft shooting strickly make it a 'guessing game' on whether there will be a good shot or a made free throw (although last night Howard played well).

The Rockets and the Blazers is turning out to be the most entertaining series with good players all around making plays. I really like the Rockets 'team' and still around wondering why they aren't better with McGrady, but they just are. The Blazers are talented but sometimes don't know where their bread is buttered. Case in point: Steve Blake's piece of crap 3pt shot with 16 secs to go and his team down 1. I wonder if Aldridge could have gotten off a better shot vs. Yao or Scola than that garbage.
