2011 NBA Playoffs: Best ever, maybe?

[John Basedow]

In the Eastern Conference the 7-8 teams will be of little consequence (although Philly could win a game or two), but you'll most likely see matchups of Magic-Hawks and Knicks-Heat...In the fucking FIRST ROUND.

In the ECSF we'll most likely see:

Celtics-Magic
Bulls-Heat
:wow

In the Western Conference, the 4-8 seeds will consist of the Blazers, Hornets, Nuggets, and Grizzlies. I don't expect much out of the Nuggets and Hornets (pending their matchups), but the Grizzlies and Blazers will be a handful for anyone.

How sick would a Thunder-Blazers 1st round matchup be? :wow:wow:wow

In the second round we are most likely looking at:

Spurs-Thunder
Lakers-Mavs.


Sweet Jesus these playoffs are going to kick ass :tu

[Pelicans78]

I could see the Suns stealing a bid over the Hornets especially if Paul is out for a prolonged time.

[lefty]

Meh

Watered down NBA :td

[tlongII]

It's just too bad the Thunder isn't in Seattle any more. A Portland vs Seattle matchup would be epic!

[cheguevara]

every year its the same expectations. But only a couple of 1st round series are decent and the rest of the rounds mostly asswhippings, injuries, ref bullshit and chokes.

[DMX7]

I'm certainly looking forward to it.

[Frenzy]

Hope all the hype is true...unlike...well u know.

Amen to that :tu

You are such a fucking dumbass.

[Cry Havoc]

I still think it would be fun if Portland matched up with LA in the first round so we could see Aldridge destroy Gasol and Bynum for 6 games.

tbh the destruction wouldn't compare to Aldridge-Duncan.

crofl 40 and 11 on old man river

:tu

Since that can't happen, I'd like to see Blazers/Lakers in round 1. Can G-Force bring that Bobcat magic to Portland that always seemed to work against LA?

[Brazil]

nice sig frenzy

[Daddy_Of_All_Trolls]

Round 2 and on will be a war. Round 1 will have some surprises, I am sure. Not saying an upset or anythng like that, most likely an exciting series like Celtics/Bulls 2009.

[tlongII]

It should be terrific. We'll be starting up with March Madness next week and then we segue into NBA Playoffs. Good times! :tu

spurs-suns first round matchup , i could see the suns win it

[baseline bum]

2011 looks to have a great playoffs, but it'll have a hard time matching 2006.

[Holden_Caulfield]

[lefty]

You are such a fucking dumbass.
And obviously you dont know anything about the NBA

TBH
IMHO

Unless Vince Carter turns into last postseason's JRich, I don't see that happening at all.

[stretch]

:cry stop calling me a dumbass, you are :cry no better of a poster :cry than I am :cry

[Cry Havoc]

Wow. :lmao

[Xylus]

Oh, and Channing Frye needs to start dropping 20 and 10's every night, too, which ain't happenin.

[20beastie45]

+1

the last ten games leading up to the playoffs is just as good as some of those matchups....before they start we all think 7 games for 1-8....but that just hasn;t happened in the past...

[tlongII]

spurs-suns first round matchup , i could see the suns win it

Nope. Not gonna happen. It will take a team with a strong inside presence to knock off the Spurs.
