Updates
Lakers v Thunder- Good God Durant... learn to shoot like you did all year and you got a legit shot in this series. And don't gimme that Artest crap because he is missing pretty nice looks as well as contested looks. Either way, home court holding so far for each team so this could go to 7 like I predicted! Waiting for Laker fans to cry about the FT disparity between the teams in game 3. (Ignoring that the Lakers took over 30 three pointers and Kobe was willing to settle for turnaround Js all game long.)
Spurs v Mavericks- Spurs took home court, now just gotta hold it and they can win in 6. We'll see how the old guys hold out. Game 3 for that one will be fun to watch. Duncan is a stud despite being 600.
Suns v Blazers- Well Blazers got their token win of the series, but looking like 4-1 is likely. LMA is just NOT NOT NOT a first option guy vs real teams, Andre is good but not All-Star caliber, and everyone else is filler for Portland. With Roy and future Oden this is perfect. Without those 2... we are not a playoff team.
Denver v Jazz- Well... with Okur and Andre dead I wouldn't expect Jazz to be 1-1, but Deron is just godlike... borderline bluelike (if Lebron didn't hold that division all to himself.) Denver still probably takes back home court and wins in 7 though, but should be an exciting series.
West has 3 good series going and then Portland... sigh.
Cleveland v Chicago- "I spose the Bulls might steal one, but I doubt it." I should stopped halfway through that sentence. Should still be 4-1, but Cleveland should be worried that the theme of "every Cav not named Lebron is playing like shit" is back like last year.
Magic v Bobcats- Magic not playing particularly well and winning easily. Should sweep. And yes I reserve the right to switch whether I call a team by their first or last name each time.
Hawks v Bucks- Kinda like Portland v Phoenix. I see Bucks stealing one, but that's about it.
Miami v Boston- Well... this look to be the one series I'm pretty sure I got wrong all together unless Miami goes NBA finals mode and starts dominating after 2 games.
