So much for Divac's comments that... the closest they will ever get to win against them was on that first game & they blew it! The Jazz are done!
Well the 2nd game on the Kings/Jazz & Hornets/Magic series just got interesting with both first game loosing team turning the table around!
I still think that the Kings will win the series & maybe the Hornets as well, however if they don't put these pesky teams away any sooner, I'm afraid John Stockton is right. "You can win 30 the game before & loose by 30 the next game, its just how the playoffs work!"
How about you guys, do think the Jazz & Magic can win it & go to the next round???

I hope that they can....im a magic fan, thats why.
Likeliness i think the kings will win but its pretty close with the hornets and magic...other people will have to step up even more with each team having a good player being injured(magic: Tracy McGrady). |

Yeah I love Divac and he's a real nice guy but he should just shut up about stuff like that. He's been known to make a bold comment or two.
During the regular season, he also made a comment to the effect of, "The Lakers won't 3-peat this year". I don't think the national press heard about that one, hehe.

About the game last night. Man that was sure a stinker. If I was a drinker, I would have been crying in my beer  and getting drunk after that sorry display by the Kings. They played their worst game of the year and that's after playing an awful Game 1. They're damn lucky they're not down 2 to 0 in this series. Kings are choking under the pressure of being a #1 seed right now. The game of the year is on Saturday. They've got to right the ship and right it fast.

Well I don't mind the Magic going to the next round, but the Jazz winning would really depress me.  |

It wasn't pretty but the Kings won today, 90 to 87, to take a 2 games to 1 lead in this Best-of-Five series.  Whew! 
In fact, the Kings played horrible again. I was pretty *.  That's the 3rd game in a row the Kings have not looked good.
The Jazz could still win Games 4 and 5 if the Kings don't watch out. Hopefully, the Kings can end all this suspense on Monday night though. |

So how about the games tonight? In no surprise, the Sonics beat a David Robinson-less and Tim Duncan-less Spurs' team, 91 to 79. They handled them pretty easily actually.
And your, Sixers win again, Flipside. What heart. In a close one against Boston, 83 to 81 to force a Game 5 at the Fleet Center. |
