| Either the Spurs or Clippers guaranteed to lose in the first round. I couldn't have asked for anything better to start the post season. |

Might just have to root for the Spurs in that one. |

For the west, I have the Warriors, Mavs, spurs, Grizzlies winning, east Hawks, cavs, Bulls, raptors.
Round 2 i have Warriors over Grizz, Spurs over Mavs in West. East I have Bulls over Cavs, Hawks over Raptors
Conference Finals I have Spurs over Warriors, Bulls over Hawks
Finals: Spurs over Bulls
Hate to say it but the Spurs are peaking at the right time, they have been dominant the last month of the season. Though I think the GS series will be really close, pretty much a toss up but I give the Spurs the edge due to experience. |

I'm not sold on the Bulls until I see them play at an elite level with consistency. I wouldn't be surprised if it took them 6 games to take care of the Bucks. When they're rolling, they're certainly contenders, but this season has proven that they can go into slumps really quickly. Hopefully they keep the proverbial "switch" on throughout the playoffs. I'd LOVE to see them knock the Cavs out. |

I don't care who wins the ship this year except for the Cavs/Spurs/Celtics for God's sake I really hope one of those teams does not win

Thar series won't even be competitive imo. The Warriors have 3 above average 6'7 defenders to throw at Harden. For that reason and bcuz of scheming, and lack of other threats for HOU - I predict he has a series like he did vs Portland last year |

| Paul Pierce up to his old tricks. Act like he's badly hurt, and then come into the game and hit a jump shot like nothing happened. |

| I hate how long replays take. It's bad for the entertainment value of the game. Also, Gortat had a wide open dunk, but decided to pass for a long jump shot. Idiotic. |

| Really love the Toronto crowd - Looks like they have tens of thousands of people outside in the streets. Hope they do well, but unfortunately, I just don't think they're that great of a team. |

| Toronto's offense is terrible. 1 and done on every possession. |

| The Wizards are winning on the road with John Wall playing like dog (bleep). Looks like this series is over already. |

| Oh the mass appeal of terrible rapper Will.i.am. Can't wait to listen to that over and over again. Where's John Tesh when you need him? |
