While last night’s Game 7 was a little anti-climatic. How about another great lineup for tonight (5/14) ?? You have 2 Game 6 battles ( Celtics/Magic and Lakers/Rockets) and 2 Game 7 battles ( Bruins/Hurricanes and Wings/Ducks). Should be a great night of sports.
Did anyone see Dwight Howard’s press conference after Game 5? It is alright to second guess your coach, but it is another thing to do it on live TV. Is it just me or has Dwight Howard’s character taking a hit in these playoffs? He elbowed a guy in the back of the head and then openly questions his coach during a hard fought series. Now he runs the risk of causing division between coaches/players – during a playoff series. Not the first thing you for in a leader.
Van Gundy did his best in trying to minimize the damages potentially created by Howard. The coach expressed that he would expect his star to be frustrated. If he wasn’t frustrated, then something would be wrong.
On the other hand, Howard needs to show some maturity. Ooops maybe that’s what happens when a player is in his fifth year in the league at the age of 24. Howard is so accustomed to star treatment that he doesn’t know what it is like to show a little resiliency.
Hey – here is my beef for the night and the problem with the NHL right now. There are 2 Game 7s on tonight and I can only see 1 of them. The Bruins game is only available if you have the Center Ice package.. Are you kidding me?
This is Game Freakin’ 7 and nobody can see it??? If I was a Bruins fan, I would be up in arms!
