Instead of making another thread, I have a question, which first round matchup are y'all most excited to see? For me it's rockets/blazers then grizz/thunder. Man if Memphis can win the first game, it will make things prettttty interesting.

Warriors Clips should be exciting. Steph Curry has been playing at a high level going I to the playoffs.

[ShoogarBear]

Warriors and Clips haaaaaaate each other. Must-see TV.

Second Round

Spurs 4-2 Rockets
Thunder 4-2 Clippers

Conference Finals

Thunder 4-2 Spurs

Eastern Conference First Round

Pacers 4-2 Hawks
Heat 4-0 Bobcats
Raptors 4-2 Nets
Bulls 4-2 Wizards

Second Round

Bulls 4-2 Pacers
Heat 4-2 Raptors

Conference Finals

Heat 4-2 Bulls

NBA Finals

Heat 4-1 Thunder



That's my realistic play-out. Of course, the homer in me can rationalize the Clips KO'ing the Thunder in the semis and the Spurs knocking them out in six in the Conference Finals. From there, the Spurs take it to Miami in five or six.

BTW, I am going to submit one, just need to think about it for a few days. ;)

It's not completely unrealistic, tbh.

[DPG21920]

:lol How can someone be a Spurs fan and predict them to lose to the Thunder in 5? My God..

There's a difference in being a fan and having a take on what you think will happen in reality. It's not like a fan of the Spurs is rooting for that outcome.

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

There's a difference in being a fan and having a take on what you think will happen in reality. It's not like a fan of the Spurs is rooting for that outcome.

Well I don't see anything that shows we would get swept. We are a competitive basketball team that won the most games in the regular season with a shit ton of injuries. I don't see how you can be a fan of the team and think they would only win one game.

I'm not saying his opinion is "wrong" or "stupid", rather just questioning it.

[SpurPadre]

I went to check ESPN's picks for shits and giggles and to see if how that retard Elhassan, who picked the Lakers to beat us in 6 last year decided to pick this time. He actually picks us to win in 5. Aside from that, everyone picked us with most of them picking us to beat the Mavs in short order except for some dumb bitch who thinks the Mavs will take us to 7 games. I knew there would be something hilarious in there. Interestingly, two of them picked the Grizzlies to beat the Thunder.

I think Dallas will upset the Spurs for my upset pick. I have the Heat vs Clippers. 7 games with Clippers edging them out in overtime. God bless

I did this bracket but now having my doubts. Spurs beat rockets in 6, sure, then OKC in 7 and then Heat in 7??? yeah right :rolleyes
