East assessment: Hawks and Cavs win easy. Bucks may take it to 6 but Chicago has too much playoff experience.

Wiz "upset" Raps. I had high hopes for the Raps halfway through the season but since the all star break... they have been pretty bad.


West assessment: Gotta take my Warriors.

Mavs will upset the Rockets. They took the Champion Spurs to 7 last year, and to be quite frankly honest I'd have chosen Houston had it not been for Beverley and Motiejunas going down. Luckily for HOU, Rondo is a shit scorer so missing Beverley wont hurt as much as otherwise. I'm calling a Mavs upset but would not put money on them, Harden and Dwight can definitely win this series.


Clips worked real hard this year, 3 seed in this historic West... sorry LAC, have a taste of your own medicine, an extra large serving of first round exit.

Portland caught the injury bug worse than anyone. No chance they win if Gasol plays and he looked real good tonight.

East 1st round looks very straightforward, with little chance of upsets.

The West 1st round is much more interesting, with the 5/6/7 seeds all having a good chance at victory.

So with everyone picking San Antonio to demolish the Clippers, we shouldn't have a shitstorm if San Antonio wins, but if the Clippers do, Paul will be praised?

Demolish? A win in 6 or 7 games is not demolishing. But we're talking the Clippers, a team not exactly known for overachieving against the Spurs, a Popovich led team with Duncan still healthy and currently the hottest team in the league.

man I didn't watch shit last night, but I kept wondering... I was like there's no way the Spurs are gonna fall to six right. That's ****ing insane they fell off like that. I think that changes the whole landscape.

I just have one bold prediction/assessment, although I know it is unlikely to happen.

If the Clippers beat the Spurs in the first round, they will win the title this year.

CP3 will be rocking the **it as always, but Clips need Blake, DeAndre and bench to step up to beat Spurs.

[coolhandsteve]

EAST
Atlanta in 5 over Brooklyn- Nets take 1 because of talent, otherwise all Hawks, who aren't happy to see them here.

Cleveland in 5 over Boston- I give the Celtics a game because of their grit and the Cavs overall playoff inexperience.

Chicago in 4 over Milwaukee- Too much offense from the Bulls for the Bucks to keep up and the Bucks don't have much of a HC advantage considering the opponent.

Toronto in 7 over Washington- Good series to watch, 2 teams with different styles. But I think the Wizards may need to win 2 in T Dot to win this series, not sure if they can. I'm assuming with this pick that Lowry's relatively healthy though.

WEST

Golden State in 6 over New Orleans- I think though the Warriors will ultimately be too much, the Pelicans will give them a push similar to what the Thunder did to the Lakers in 2010.

Houston in 6 over Dallas- Hard one to pick, I didn't love Dallas' inconsistency though and I think the Rockets are a little better supporting cast than they get credit for. Also don't know if the Mavs have someone to check Harden well.

L.A. Clippers over San Antonio in 7- Other than a sweep I won't be surprised by anything that happens in this series, I just think the Clippers are out of excuses and their time's gotta be now.

Memphis over Portland in 6- The Blazers are more banged up, and unless Lillard and Aldridge explode and their teammates feed off of that, they're not taking this series.
