NBA Western Conference Game 4: Suns 115 / Lakers 109

Wow, the bench for the Suns outscored Lakers 56-20 last night. That’s a-ma-za-zing. That game showed that Kobe Bryant, his couch Phil Jackson, and the rest of Bryant’s team are not insurmountable. A win like this brings hope to Suns fans. ‘There is at least something going good in the AZ’. With all the bad press and hot spotting in the southwest state, this is sure good timing on Nash and his crew to do well in the playoffs.

So, they tied it up 2-2. After the Basketball world "had Celtics, Lakers penciled in" (ESPN's Robert Flores). Now, what’s even sadder is the fact that no one on the west coast really cares what’s going on in Orlando and Boston. They west will win the championship. That’s a given. But who will it be.

DJ’s Prediction: Suns will loose game 5 Thursday but will take the series in game 7 with winning the last two. Frye will have an amazing role in games 6 and 7.

NBA Eastern conference Game 4: Magic 96 / Celtics 92

That’s the problem, the Magic get a win to bring the series to 3-1 with the Celtics leading, and it’s still not exciting. Where is the fun in that? The playoffs, for me, suck. Unless you have something vested in it. I got the Suns and how much I hate the Lakers. I love the Red Socks, but that’s as far as my love for the city of Boston’s sports teams go. I hate the Patriots, know very little about the Penguins, and the Celtics I really have nothing BAD to say, I’m just am not a fan.

So where does this leave our friends form the retiree capital state of the world? I’m not sure. No one thinks they are going to win this. My hopes are…. Like the rest of the world, I don’t care. GO SUNS!

DJ’s Predictions: Celtics take game 5 tonight and the Conference Championship. Sorry Orlando.

NHL Playoffs

Now, if you live somewhere that has the Verses channel, great. You must have loved the NHL Playoffs so far. If not, just so you know, the NHL Playoffs are going on. In fact, it’s down to two. Playing for the Stanley Cup are the Chicago Blackhawk’s and Philadelphia Flyers.

The Flyers got here with a few injuries for the first series (Conference quarterfinals), 4 strait wins to take the come back win in the second (3-0, Boston lead in the Conference Semifinals) and upsetting a bunch of hockey playin’ Canadians (Montreal Canadiens) in the third (Conference finals). Will they make it another upset and take out the seemingly unbreakable Blackhawk’s? ...No

DJ’s Prediction: Blakchawk’s sweep Flyers and take the Cup in 4.
