The NBA Playoffs continue tonight with three more games. I know this is really late, the only excuse I have is that I'm just not feeling the first round of these playoffs just yet. Anyway, three games tonight. The Brooklyn Nets (0-1) have one more game to play against the very talented Atlanta Hawks (1-0). In the Eastern Conference Utah Jazz Bowl it's hard not to root for Paul Millsap, Kyle Korver, and DeMarre Carroll over Deron Williams. Also, D-Will really has become a shell of himself. What's up with that? Out West, the Memphis Grizzlies (1-0) look to test the Portland Trail Blazers (0-1) again -- their grit and grind is too much for the passive polish of Portland. And last, and best, in the game you actually care about, the San Antonio Spurs (0-1) try to even the score and take one away from the Los Angeles Clippers (1-0). This seems like a carbon copy of the copy from last night because it is. There seems to be no flavor to these playoffs just yet. I do expect the Spurs to not miss every three they take this time around. But I don't have many hopes for the Blazers.

Playoff Overview So far:
Out East all the better teams are winning, just like out West. The Cavaliers, Bulls, Wizards, Warriors, and Rockets are all up 2-0. I guess the playoffs don't start until the home team loses a home game, but in that case the Raptors are screwed, as they lost their first two in Canada.
