man - feel bad for the bulls and every nba fan. drose has had terrible luck - hoping he comes back stronger than ever. knicks looks terrible, offense is iso every time, very easy to defend, and wade is destroying everyone now that shumpert is done.

gotta say the spurs are looking like the favorites.

Yep, the Knicks and the Mavs look to be heading out and probably not winning a single game, I expected the Knicks v Heat to have been a 4-1 or 4-2 to the heat but it has been incredibly easy, not surprised with the Mavs though, from the start of the season they have not looked like defending champions.

The Bulls v 76ers definately got some spice now, I still expect the Bulls to progress but it could be a 4-2 series, will see.

IDK why everyone expected that. I said they would get swept and that the Knicks had no chance whatsoever. No team does. And without the bulls miami might get all the way to the finals without a loss in the playoffs.

If they play boston they might lose 1 or 2. But even then im not sure cause Lebron is looking like a monster.

Mainly due to Melo's form leading to the end of the season but the Heat have been just too good in the series, Lebron has destroyed him.

The Pacers might give the Heat a good series assuming they progress, as for the Bulls even if the progress to the next round, the Celtics might be too good with their experience, losing Rose is such a damn blow.

It will probably be a a Thunder or Spurs v Heat final, Durant vs Lebron will be quite something to witness.

Well you gotta look at what melo has to deal with. Hes got lebron gaurding him. Then when lebron rests hes got shane battier gaurding him. Not a lot of reprieve for melo.

Pacers have the talent to give them a run, but not the mental fortitude. Pacers would get downed 4,1. If they rally. But if Miami could destroy their brains with a blow out in the first game.

Yea i say OKC vs Miami. Only team with any hopes at all that they might be able to even give miami a run is boston. And i dont think they got it either.

Losing Noah also showed today, the Bulls have to start thinking about next season I suppose, its not over but its a mountain of a task now.

I was also thinking of a 4-1 to the Heat when they face the Pacers but most of the games could be close ones.

Semi Final playoff picture:

Well the Clippers v Grizzlies series was as close as I expected, not sure how much the Clippers will do against a rested SA, I also expect OKC to progress rather easily for similar reasons unless Kobe plays like never before.

Current prediction:

Heat v Pacers 4-1
Celtics v 76ers 4-2
Spurs v Clippers 4-1
Thunder v Lakers 4-1

agree w the winners of the west - but think both will go 6 games - mostly cuz kobe and cp3 will will it. celtics will get to the east finals and push the heat to prob 6 games. i am rooting for seven, cuz the heat still don't really have the look of a championship, ugh, but sadly they'll win bc dwade and lebron. if okc gets to the finals the heat will win. if spurs make it - they'll beat the heat in 6, won't be interesting.

True, Chris Paul has been in great form and is well capable winning games on his own just like Kobe, the main thing that goes against the LA clubs is the amount of games they have played already, especially in the case of the Lakers when they threw that 3-1 lead against the Nuggets.

agreed - i think the west finals will be okc and spurs. but would be crazy to see the battle of LA
