Does anyone else believe how incredible the Warriors have been in the postseason. I realize that they haven't beaten the Mavs yet, but they have been playing good enough to make me root for them. I honestly hope that they can finish off Dallas tonight because if the Mavericks force a game seven I doubt that they could beat them again on the road.

Well, the Warriors finished the job.

How deep will they go?

I think they have a good chance to advance past the Jazz or the Rockets next round. Both of those teams are a more halfcourt team like the Mavs so I don't think either team will be able to keep up the pace with the Warriors. I hope they advance and the Suns advance because that would be a great series to watch. If the Suns and Warriors do match just imagine what the scores will be.

For all the hype the Western Conference gets, one of the teams they will be sending to the Conference Finals will be either the Jazz or the Warriors. That's not to knock on either team because they're both good teams, but when we get to the final four teams in this playoff bracket, the East is probably going to look a little deeper than the West.

The Spurs are very scary. Duncan is such a great player. He doesn't do anything flashy or spectacular, he just does everything well. That team just gets better in the playoffs.

Am I the only one who finds the NBA's playoff seeding to be ridiculous?

I mean, the NHL--after the first round they re seed the teams. Thus If an 8 defeats a 1 seed, they play the next highest seed.

It's ashamed that the two best teams in the NBA have to face each other in the conference semi's.

I live in the Bay Area and have had the pleasure of witnessing the Warriors escalation through the NBA ranks during the season. But honestly I have never believed in them, I like the style but if you're being out rebounded 60-32 you aren't going to win a playoff series.

With that said the Warriors may win 1 or 2 at home, but they won't win in Utah and if somehow they creep past Utah, they don't have the depth on their roster to compete with the likes of the Suns or Spurs. The Suns will out score them, especially with no one on the Warriors roster to defend Amare Stoudemire, or Shawn Marrion. Same goes for San Antonio, the spurs can shoot the three and they can beat you down in the post with Duncan--whom the Warriors have no answer for.

The Warriors need a post player badly and until they get one they won't get passed the conference semi's.

with the way they've been playing though in game four, all i see is rush rush rush. i want to see the warriors make it but honestly after watching games 1, 2 and 4? they've got little chance of doing so.

there was no team cohesiveness in this game!

chalk it up to playoff inexperience or whatever... maybe i'm just frustrated.

I think that the bad news for you is that you may get stuck watching a Spurs/Pistons final this year. That defense still wins championships.
