Top 3 seeds will all survive the first round after all.
Spurs in 4. The series vs. mavs is just a warm-up round for us, after which we'll be 100% fit, and I'd be surprised even if the guests won one game against us tbh.
Regardless of our differences, I respect your confidence.![]()
this thread will be redundant in 10 hrs time...
Irrespective of whether it's the Spurs or the Mavs, am I right in thinking that all the games will be at 9.30pm ET (and later in Portland)? Based on the existing semi-final line-ups, it seems to be 7ET for the East and 9.30ET for the West. Makes a huge difference for us coffee slurpers over in the UK. This series with Dallas has been pretty civilised, in terms of start times.
Careful you don't cut yourself on that edge there bro
This is one of the hardest series to predict for me in a long time...mainly because the Spurs have looked so good and so bad in the first round. It could be anything from a Spurs sweep to a Blazers sweep. I guess I'll split it and say Spurs in 7.
Blazers in 6, tbh..this is only the 2nd series I've picked against the Spurs in the past 2 playoffs(Miami in the Finals being the other) and I've been correct on all of them, but I'm not optimistic about this series..

Portland in 6.
Aldridge, Lillard, Batum, Lopez, Mathews are all more than capable of playing 40+ minutes without looking gassed. In fact, they look like they more in the tank even after playing 40 than most spurs players that play over 30...I'm not confident about this series tbh. Lillard is the only mismatch, and we all know by now this team doesn't rely on exploiting mismatches as much as other team..Mathews is no pushover either.
Ginobili is going to get exposed in this series..
Blazers in 6..they close this out in front of tlongII..
You just don't know which Spurs team will show up anymore, makes it difficult to pick... gonna go with the homer pick, Spurs in 6
The Blazers are playing great but its very rare historically a team wins 2 straight series without HCA especially a young team. The spurs will win this series in 6.
I have no ing idea whats going to happen. Spurs in 7.
Beli makes his return this series.
Spurs win first 2 at home by single digits, lose game 3 by double digits, steal game 4 because Guests choke, close it out in 5
