The first round of the NBA playoffs is enough to drive anybody insaneBetween the first round of the NBA playoffs, the first round of the NHL playoffs, the NFL draft, and a wicked sinus infection, I am confusd and exhausted. And now I see that Stan Van Gundy (the same guy who complained about the schedule earlier this year when his team had to play on Christmas Day) is complaining about the
first round playoff schedule having too many off days. Look, I don't necessarily disagree, but damn. I don't know how much more basketball compressed into each day I can handle!
Speaking of SVG...
Worst of the Night in Pictures: Is Stan Van Gundy rehearsing for a bit part in a movie about 1940s Germany? "Hey! You better not make that tasteless joke!"
Woah, okay, sorry! Calm down Stan! Hey, didn't we just see this picture yesterday? We're several days into the playoffs, and yet somehow this is our first example of anything even resembling accidental man loveAll The Games:Crabs at Bulls - TNT, 7:00pm
Crabs lead series 2-0Thanks to other obligations, I won't be able to see this game tonight. As a fan of competitive basketball, I'm not exactly heartbroken. Plus I won't have to hear LeBron talk about how much he loves Chicago AND Cleveland. I hate hearing outright lies.
Nobody loves Cleveland, LeBron.
Lakers at Thunder - TNT, 9:30pm

was voted NBA Coach of the Year recently.
A couple of Thunder fans
understand what this means. The power of the Coach of the Year curse is strong, my friends.
Suns at Frail Blazers - NBA TV, 10:00pm
Series tied 1-1In surprisingly pleasant news, Nicolas Batum's shoulder injury isn't as severe as feared, and he is a game-time decision for Game 3. However, it still has to really torment the Portland fans who have endured 13 Blazers missing a combined 311 regular-season games this season. They've had more guys down than the antagonists in a Chuck Norris movie.

Even Portland's unsigned European players are going down. Check out Petteri Kopponen.
Meanwhile, I'm at the bowling alley so not watching the game. Why are the Crabs down so badly right now?
I don't SVG's gone Nazi, it looks more like a failed Senor Weenches routine.
Ok...so he didn't say that...but I wish he did.
Whats up with Robin Lopez? Injured or summin?
And was Marissa Miller at the Bulls-Cavs game? ;)
