Another very interesting piece from ESPN: http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/page/presents18969358/nexus-partying-winning-nba

It looks at the decline in home court advantage since the NBA's wild days in the 70's/80's.

On why the NBA playoffs are so much fun:

"[There are] three important ways that the playoffs are different from the regular season: they are more intense, they are more strategic, and they are more exhausting."

Let's go Jazz!  Can't wait for the national audience to see how special Gobert is.  I'll be at Game 1 in LA.

Awesome! I'll be rooting for the Jazz too, but the Clips are going to be a tough out with CP3 and Blake healthy.

LA Live/Staples is a damn nice place to see a game.

All I want is for Lance to blow in LeBron's ear again.

I'm psyched as hell to watch the beard-man and the wild-man go at it. That is going to be one heck of a fun 1st round series.

Once we get to the 2nd round things should really heat up.

[mypasswordis]

Hell yeah, the Raptors and Celtics are legit this year.

Went to game 1 with my friend who's a Clippers fan.  My first time seeing the Jazz and I picked one hell of a game to go to!  Bummed about Gobert getting hurt 17 sec into the game.  Here's the game winner from my POV

You mean they exist?  

So sad to hear about Isaiah's sister. Watching the game now, can't believe he decided to play but hope he's fire tonight.

Get your money's worth, coach!

Game 5 is a must win for the Bulls. Even then, it will be tough. But still nice to see them hang in there this far.

Local news says Rondo is practicing. May play with his broken thumb.

[Aura]

Pretty crazy but they desperately need him. Took a total 180 with him on the bench.

[TMoney]

Tonight is the night if the Bulls are going to have a realistic shot at taking the series. It sounds like Rondo is out and Vegas has the Celts as 7.5 favs so it is going to be tough.

[TMoney]

I've got to hand it to the little man. He loses his sister, gets his tooth knocked out, then comes out and puts 53 on the Wiz in an overtime win.

Pretty damn impressive.

Oh, and he was the last pick in the draft and is the shortest guy in the NBA.

[TMoney]

As if the world needed more proof that Kevin Garnett is awesome.

"Soldiers eat first!"

The Ray Allen drama is annoying, though... I hate reporters always trying to instigate and start drama to get some juicy headline

Celtics wore all black today... let's see if it backfires. Go Wiz!

[TMoney]

John-boy for the win!

Hooray! Best PG in the league <3 can't wait for game 7

Gogo Wiz! Buck Foston!

[TMoney]

We'll take the horse!

[mypasswordis]

 Still better to be a Net than a Knick at this point, but the two NY teams are by far the worst in the league....

Man, this is a straight up massacre. The Raptors mentally collapsed even before the series started but I don't know what to call this. It's like a high school varsity team playing against middle schoolers. 

[TMoney]

If there were going to play like cowards they should have at least let Washington have a crack at Cleveland.
