I'll be mildly surprised if the Spurs beat the Blazers.

Malone is just a country boy

No one to guard parker or Leonard. Duncan might struggle with lma but fat diaw can help. **** lillard

Who on the Mavs could guard Leonard?

The Mavs were a bottom 5 team in the NBA in defense.

The only way I see the Blazers beating the Spurs is if the starters dont get in foul trouble and if they all average 40+ min a game.

well thats the blazers game plan

 

[SneakerProSr.]

If the Wizards had a better coach I would like their chances so much more.

 

[ny mavurs]

The Spurs are going to sweep the Blazers.

Srs

 

[Hank Scorpio]

I think Spurs should win in 6. Wouldn't be surprised if it goes 7 though.

 

[delete1234]

I hate watching Boris diaw play. ****** existence on the court is just annoying

 

[lamekilla]

I see the upset coming...

Blazers in 6

Man I really hope not but it's just a weird feeling I'm getting

 

[mr marcus]

Random but I like beadle over Steele with the espn pregame show....she's more hip

 

[chippedtoothsmile]

If our bench somewhat contributes then we got a chance. I'm still taking us in 6. LA's gotta have a good series

 

[shoeking2101]

I feel like the Playoffs is the best place for a team like Portland, seeing as they don't have that much coming off the bench. With Lillard and Aldridge, they can for sure win. At the end of the day, Aldridge has proven that he can get incredibly hot. Make or miss league. If Aldridge is hitting, I believe in them big time to take this series. Lillard is ready. And defensively, I like Mathews and Batum. Portland is so dependent on the jumpshot though, so them more than probably any other team left, will have to make shots to actually have a chance to win this series.

I think they'll shoot it well though. Blazers in 6.

And of course, we rolling with the Clippers in 6 as well. They match up well with OKC, have been incredibly successful against them in recent years, so it's actually pretty dope that they finally meet in the playoffs. I think every single game in this one comes down to the final 2 minutes. Can Matt Barnes force KD into inefficiency? What Westbrook will we see? Should be an entertaining series anyway.

I have Portland upsetting the Spurs. My predictions:

Nets over Heat in 7.
Pacers over Wizs in 6
Portland over Spurs in 6
Clippers over Thunder in 7

Clearly im going for the upsets. First round spoiled us lol

 

[xbiker47]

I dont see Nets upsetting Heat. IMO they would have to win 5vs8

[sea manup]

not looking good for portland

too many NTers thinking they will win

It's because most of them dislike the Spurs.

The coach and bench matchup in this series is unfair

 

[pmatic]

Heat in 5.
Pacers in 6.
Spurs in 5.
Thunder in 6.
