Playoff series. Favourite.

Ohh, Hornets advanced to the 2nd round and the Mavericks going home with empty handed. Hornets' star Chris Paul grabbed 24 points, 15 assists and 11 rebounds, and the Hornets held on for a 99-94 victory over the Dallas Mavericks to win their first-round series in five games. Chris Paul was just talented and had a triple-double to help the Hornets advanced past Dallas.

After the lost of Dallas, Dallas Mavericks' owner Mark Cuban fired coach Avery Johnson. Johnson leaves with an impressive resume after three-plus seasons, but Mavs owner Mark Cuban couldn’t tolerate two straight years of first-round exits.

Dallas didn’t win a single road game against the Heat, Warriors or Hornets, an 0-9 skid that was too much to overcome.

The final mark during Johnson’s tenure: 194-70 in the regular season, 23-24 in the playoffs.

On Pistons-Sixers series, The power 4 of Pistons Billups, Wallace, Prince and Hamilton nearly beat the Sixers. Billups had 21 points and 12 assists, Wallace had 19 points and 6 block shots, Hamilton had 20 points and Prince had 17 points to lift Detroit to a 98-81 win over the Sixers and a 3-2 lead in the 1st round series.

The series is not over yet. The Sixers might win their game 6 on Thursday night in Philadelphia. Their not gonna let the Detroit to win with an easy game on game 6. It is the do or die game for the Sixers. This series is still unfinished.
