NBA Playoffs

[atx_newbie]

Anybody watching them?

I mean, we all know it's going to be Cavs/Lakers in the Finals, but until then there have been some great games so far in the first round.

What's everyone else's take?

[CFFF 1.5]

Everyone thinks it is going to be Cavs/Lakers in the Finals but if it was such a done deal then there wouldn't be any reason to have playoffs. Any team can win on any given night. Just look at the Superbowl this year. Who honestly thought the Cardinals were going to be in the Superbowl. I think San Antonio and the Mavs have a shot as well as the Magic and Celtics in the East. The Nuggets have a solid team also.

The Mavs do not have a player who will take a game over in crunchtime.  San Antonio has little shot without Manu.  

I picked a LA/Orlando final.  If Howard isn't hurt too bad I still think that can happen, but if he is limited with the eye injury, the only team that might trip up the Cavs in the East is Atlanta IMO.  The only two in the West who could give LA fits is Denver and Houston.

[atx_newbie]

Well I think the Celtics aren't getting past Chicago, and Orlando just coughed up home-court advantage to Philly.

I do think the West is more up for grabs, but the Lakers have been so dominant this season I just can't see anyone beating them in 7 games.  Maybe in 1 or even 2, but not 7.

KOBE!!!!!!

[Matt Fly]

I was thinking repeat for Celtics if they stayed healthy this year.

King James and Kobe would be great series to watch.

It should come down to the Spurs and Lakers from the west, with the Lakers coming out on top.

    Now hurry up and finished B ball, so football is that much closer.

celtics will lose to cavs in the eastern conference finals. allen and pierce can only take them so far.

[Captain Obvious]

For the conference finals

I say it's going to be Bulls/Cavs, Cavs will win

and Mavs/LA, LA will win

I think that King James will get a crown this year, Cavs to take all

[Sam]

Go Saints.

OK, its basketball, but at least the Saints would have a better chance of increasing their win totals if they played basketball.  ;D

[1inStripes]

Hated seeing the Cookie Monster probably end his career due to an injury last night.

[Tin]

Good thing the Raptors are not in the NBA playoffs. A mention of Canada and the thread gets closed down.... :    

[Captain Obvious]

Oh Canada ;)lol

The celtics are hot now, they will get to the eastern conference finals and lose to cavs. Go C's

Typical bandwagon Celtic fans. They cheer on the green yet they say they will loose to the Cavs. First off, if you are a Celtics fan, you root for your team 110% . Second, stop wining about Leon Powe's torn ACL, and KG's injury. The celtics are deep, bench players have stepped up, and the starters have all increased their scoring averages tremendously.  Lastly, they are DEFENDING Champions, they've been there and done that.  8-)
