Fist Round Fever 4/21

I'm gonna start most blog blog posts with the outrageous styles Russell Westbrook brings to his post game conferences.

Who's Hot: The Pacers all-star Paul George posted a triple double with 23 pts, 11 ast, and 12 rbs in a Game 1 win for the Pacers. George showed an incredibly complete performance despite shooting 3 for 13, he made up for it by playing lock down defense and going 17 of 18 from the charity stripe.

Who's Not: Jeremy Lin in his first playoff series could not help the Rockets in a loss to the thunder going for 4 pts, 4 ast, and 4 TO in 32 minutes of play. The Rockets have to hope from more from Lin if they expect a competitive series.

Bench Stench: The Lakers bench of Jodie Meeks, Antwan Jamison, Earl Clark and Darrius Morris stank up the Spur's Arena going for a combined 10 points in their 50 minutes of play. This was compared to the 40 points the Spurs bench delivered for the win.

Birdman Soars: Chris "Birdman" Anderson has really become an integral part of the Heat's winning formula with his rebounding and energy. The Birdman brought an assortment of dunks against the Bucks yesterday, including this putback jam. You gotta love the announcer's call on his sweet hair.
