May 9, 2008; Man, I was sick!

I woke up at around 6 a.m. today 'coz I felt something. I was kinda sick and I was a little bit hot. I just rested the whole day. Ate my breakfast and stayed at my room for most of the day. Even our game didn't push through, but not because of me, it's due to the bad weather. Strong rain poured here at around 5 in the afternoon, so the games were postponed. So there...

And even though I'm not feeling well, still, here are the results of today's playoff games!

First up, Game 2 between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Boston Celtics. Wherein the Celtics showed why they are the top team in the East by beating the Cavs, 89-73, to take the 2-0 advantage in their series. Paul Pierce led the Celtics with 19 points and 6 rebounds, while Ray Allen added 16 points for them. LeBron James led the losing team with 21 points and 5 rebounds. Game 3 will be on Sunday at Cleveland.

And now, Game 3 between the New Orleans Hornets and the San Antonio Spurs, wherein we saw the old and dominant Spurs beating the Hornets, 120-99. Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili each had 31 points for the Spurs while Tim Duncan had 16 points. Chris Paul led the Hornets and all scorers with 35 points and 9 assists.
