Curious how these playoffs will unfold. Atlanta clinched #1 but will they make the Finals. Will Kyrie carry over his insane games into the playoffs? Will the Heat make the playoffs? Spurs' loss last night didn't help and Brooklyn is red hot. And the west don't get me started

By the look of things, the new champs are from the West again. The Cavs are likely to be representing the East.

I think GS/SA out of the west and Cleveland in the Finals. Probably west winner overall. There are going to be some sick series.

$5 E money says GS will not make it out of the West.

But god i don't like LBJ much...

Golden State reallllly relies on the 3-pointer...I dunno, if their shooting goes south...and without a very strong post-presence, I think they may be out. So, dunno. Historically, playoff winners aren't built on perimeter shooting, is it?

All they need is just 1 game in LA...

Clippers during regular season were at 37% 3 pt shooting.. and game 1 was at 60something %.

Let's see if they can do that again in game 2.

Wow, looks like the Bullets are making mincemeat out of the Waptors. Probably will hold the lead and sweep.

Quite embarrassing. I called a Wiz series win but didn't think it would be a sweep, and such a dominant sweep no less. Both teams were terrible in the 2nd half so it was a tough call.

I think the problem is that they breathe the same air as the same Leaves...losing is contagious, you know.

Look at Burke who left Toronto and suddenly is watching a rebuilding Flames team in Calgary advance to the 2nd round. Waptors should leave the ACC and go play in a court someplace else in the city.

Hamilton has a court, no?
