here's why the Sonics won...
Camby's excellent defense took care of Emeka.
Dirk's outside game took Sammy out of action.
Kundla's defense against Pettitt's offense.
Nick English's great overall game at the point with several options to dish too.
Peja off the bench and Dickau's ability to handle the ball = solid SF play. I don't mean to nitpick, but... Kundla's defense on Pettit? Did you see what Pettit put up? I'll give ya a hint, Pettit's lowest scoring game was 29 pts, his highest 41, and he put up 1.41 pps. Camby taking Okafor out? Okafor played 3 games against Camby. 20 pts (8-25), 13 rebounds, 5 assists. 27 pts (10-21), 18 rebounds, 4 assists, 6 blocks. 17 pts (5-11 shooting) in only 19 minutes. He did well against Emeka in game 1. Got abused by Emeka in game 2. Then was on his way to being abused by Emeka in game 3, until Emeka got in foul trouble. Because of Dirk. Camby had 1 free throw that game. Camby's a fine player. But in the 2 games he played against Emeka getting starters minutes Emeka got 23.5 (40% shooting), 15.5 boards and 4 blocks. Not exactly shutting him down. Emeka will struggle 1 in 3 games from the field regardless. Meanwhile Camby shot 21% Peja's 10 minutes per game did not swing the series. I mean, great win, and all the congrats in the world. I just don't agree with yoru analysis. |

Holy ish, don't feel so bad about not making the playoffs when there was an unbeatable team anyway. And now the Peja-Deng+Diddle trade looks great for the Sonics  |

wow, thats al i can say. wow, wow, double wow ... I gave the Sonics no chance whatsoever to prevail in this series, thought home court plus a superior overall team would work in the Nets favor. Oh how far off i've been ... like the Nets getting outrebounded big time by the #23 rebounding team, that's a bit harsh. 16-0 is unheard of. Especially with FBB mixing all kind of intangible and random stuff in to allow for upsets. This is truly an amazing run I'm proud to watch as a first row spectator. So CONGRATULATIONS Sonics for complete dominance of us all here !  On a sidenote: I DO believe the Pacers and the Celtics would have had something to say about the Sonics going "and-zip", or even more, but you have to get there first to make some noise, so lets shut up here ...  |

and Bods: don't worry too much, you had an incredible season. One of the best i've ever seen. You just lost to a team that was slightly better or on a hotter streak. With the first 3 close ones, this could have gone either way. So don't be too depressed, your next finals will be around the end of coming november anyway ... ... if you can beat me in the CF then  |

Since when did Celtics become god I mean the huge winning streak was nice, but like me, his second half schedule was not exactly a challenge, it was pretty easy. |
