NBA Playoffs...

Round 2...

Scores...

Nuggets 106, Mavs 105 (Nuggets Lead 3-0)

Cavs 97, Hawks 82 (Cavs Lead 3-0)

Top Performers...

• Carmelo Anthony - 31 points, 8 rebounds, game-winner.
• Chauncey Billups - 32 points.
• Dirk Nowitzki - 33 points, 16 boards.
• LeBron James - 47 points, 12 boards, 8 dimes.

Things To Think About...

• Granted, the refs failed to call a foul on Antoine Wright. But: 1. As Hubie Brown said, why did he stop playing if the ref hadn't blown the whistle? 2. Why wouldn't he hack the sh** out of Melo, and make it a clear cut foul? 3. How about manning up and playing D. How can a team be upset at the refs for not calling a foul on them? That doesn't even make sense.
• The Cavs D is nasty. As much of a freak as Bron is, the D may be the Cavs' most dangerous aspect. There have been so many times this season, including last night, when they'll be losing, and, the next time you look up, there up by double digits and in complete control. That's a product of great defense.

Other League News: Suns Name Gentry Head Coach...

The Phoenix Suns are sticking with coach Alvin Gentry.

The Suns removed the interim tag attached to his title since he took over the club in February.

Suns president Steve Kerr made the announcement on Saturday, calling Gentry "the right man to lead our team into the future."

Gentry took over the struggling Suns on Feb. 16 after coach Terry Porter was fired just four months into his first season with the club.

The Suns failed to make the playoffs despite the coaching change.

Rev Run's Son, JoJo, Caught Rollin Up...

The son of legendary rapper Joseph "Run" Simmons of Run DMC was arrested for possession of marijuana on Friday night, according to published reports. 

Joseph "JoJo" Simmons Jr. allegedly bought weed and was seen rolling the illegal substance in the Upper West Side of Manhattan, according to gossip news site tmz.com. 

Sources within the police department told the site that the 19-year-old was inside a car when he was apprehended. 

The sources also charge that he tried to escape by reversing and almost struck a police vehicle. 

Simmons Jr. was charged with resisting arrest, attempted reckless endangerment, and criminal use of drug paraphenalia in addition to the possession charge. 

No statement has been issued by the Simmons family or a representative. 

Simmons, Jr. stars on the show "Run's House" with his father and the rest of the family. 

I'm not even mad at him. He'll be aight...

NBA Playoffs...

Round 2...

Scores...

Celtics 96, Magic 117 (Magic Lead 2-1)

Rockets 108, Lakers 94 (Lakers Lead 2-1)

Top Performers...

• Dwight Howard - 17 points (on 7-8 shooting), 14 boards, 5 blocks.
• Rashard Lewis - 28 points, 6 rebounds.
• Paul Pierce - 27 points, 6 assists, 3 boards, 3 steals.
• Kobe Bryant - 33 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 blocks, 2 steals.
• Ron Artest - 25 points, 6 rebounds.

Things To Think About...

• The formulas for Boston and L.A. seem clear: Ray Allen must shoot well for Boston to win. Last night: 8 points, 3-13 from the field, 0-5 from deep. In L.A., Kobe must take the initiative  from the get-go (i.e. Games 2 & 3) in order for the Lakers to win. That "team-first" mentality was great during the year, but its the playoffs now. I think he's figured that out...
• The NBA's back. If you can't tell, just observe the physical play.

NBA Playoffs...

Round 2...

Scores...

Hawks 85, Cavs 105

Top Performers...

• LeBron James - 27 points, 5 assists, 4 steals, 3 rebounds. In less than three quarters...He hit a jumper - not a heave - from 40 feet to go into the half.

Things To Think About...

• Again, the Cavs have a cakewalk to the Finals.
• Should it be cause for concern that: 1. The Cavs are yet to be tested, and 2. That no one else has really had a big game for Cleveland.

Suspensions...

In case you didn't know, Derek Fisher and Rafer Alston will both be sitting out tonight after their respective Game 2 actions. Kobe Bryant will not be suspended (and he shouldn't be).
