found the spurs fan

[Proctor]

found the spurs fan
Doesn't really matter what I think about the Nuggets because they would get beat by OKC in the next round.

I don't really know what to think about them, but I'm not going to anoint them when they haven't proven anything. They could just be a slightly better version of the 2014 Hawks.

It isn't that insane to believe the Spurs can handle the Nuggets and that they match up well enough with OKC to beat them. The fact I picked the Warriors in 5 over the Spurs should tell you that my confidence does have a ceiling. :no:

Bucks over Celtics in 6
Raptors over Sixers in 6

Off to a good start although I will admit most of the 1st round was pretty easy to decide. The match up that had the most parity was Spurs vs Nuggets and I picked the Nuggets in 7. We shall see.

I am a prophet.

[ArbitraryWater]

I was too hopeful with the Raps and Bucks, I think

[GimmeThat]

I wonder if it makes me an old schooler for excluding the productions of players from their previous round.

[TheCorporation]

I am a prophet.

Bout that 8 for 8 100% life! :rockon:

[Wally450]

Every favorite won in the first round. 2nd round looks more entertaining.

[TheCorporation]

Still early :cheers:

But you we wrong and we were not. This is a playoff bracket, not a contest who can make the most surprising and retarded picks.

I can't believe that moron tried to make correct picks as a negative and him getting it wrong as a positive.
