Quick NBA Thoughts

• Hate to say I told you so about the Celtics running their offense through Garnett, but...I told you so. KG was a beast in Game 1 and deserves the ball more than anyone on the Celtics right now
• All you Rondo haters out there, please argue this stat. All Time Playoff Triple Double Leaders: 1. Magic Johnson (30) 2. Jason Kidd (11) 3. Larry Bird (10) 4.Wilt Chamberlain (9) T5. Rajon Rondo (8) T5. Oscar Robinson (8). Pretty elite company for a 26 year old. Could potentially pass Bird and Kidd this year. He's just getting started.
• Don't over analyze the Lakers squeezing out a series win over the Nuggets. They still are title contenders and Kobe, Gasol and Bynum can put it all together and beat any team (yes even the Heat) at any point. Did you have any doubt the Lakers were going to win game 7? Yeah,  me neither.
• Couldn't help, but notice how uncomfortable all of Lebron's teammtes were when he praised them in his MVP speech. Something about Wade in the background of Lebron didn't look right. They are going to choke again this year, I'm telling you.
• Congrats to the Clippers for being relevant. Chris Paul is a once in a lifetime talent, one only a true basketball fan could appreciate. Sure Derrick Rose and Westbrook are exciting, but nobody has the ball in his hands more or control's the pace better than CP3. He's an artist.
• The Western Conference is a lot better than the Eastern Conference, I mean would Indiana or Philadelphia even make the playoffs in the West? Despite this the Heat and the Celtics are title contenders and could knock off any Western Conference team.

Hope the weekend was well and Happy Mother's Day to all you mothers out there.
