It's that time ladies and gentlemen,
the 2015 NBA playoffs!!!!!!
This is going to be one of the best playoffs in NBA history
Here's my predictions for these playoffs.
It's literally been the hardest playoffs to pick, i don't know if Toronto will beat Atlanta but I know no matter what as long as Cleveland beats Chicago they're making it out of the east. The West is a lot harder to pick mostly every series with San Antonio took me 3 minutes of running scenarios and match ups in my head. They could literally be eliminated in the first round against the Clippers or run and take it all if they make it out of the west, against the in-experienced Cavalries.
honestly who cares about those stats and history records. it is not unlikely to break records and make history. teams just gotta take it one game at a time. teams need to take a look at the tape to see the good and the bad and try to fix the problems that they had
devante im not talking about you. im talking about xbornsinnerx. if he wants to talk smack about a team don't just do it when they lose and disappear when they win.
I think the Bulls win since Love is out. But don't forget in 2013 they won Game 1 against the Heat(with James), then lost 4 straight

Well, this post here should answer your question.
itès not like i said OMG GSW AND CAVS ARE GONNA SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP THEIR OPPOSITION, I am aware they are going to lose games. What do I need to comment on a loss for? lol
regular season games don't even matter anymore. the wizards lost 0-3 to the raptors in the regular season and yet they swept the raptors in the playoffs. postseason play is totally different. that is true for all sports including nfl, mlb, and nhl
bulls lost this bad and im kinda glad it happened like this. this better give them a good wake up call for game 3. seriously who gives up 38 points in the 1st quarter on 60% shooting and tons of offensive rebounds. they cannot afford to start off slow like that again. the energy from the bulls was lost from the beginning. they had some wide open looks but they couldn't knock them down. most importantly there was no signs of urgency. Cleveland wanted this game more than the bulls and they attacked the rim consistently.
thibs should be furious and so should the players. pau gasol literally gave no effort into the game. he got beat on 50/50 balls and his defense was crap. joakim noah was playing way too soft today. there were lots of weak finishes at the rim and he made unnecessary passes when he could have finished strong. the bulls wing defenders need to play strong defense on the 3 point line. butler, rose, hinrich, and Dunleavy were getting beat to the basket. you can't allow easy drives to the basket because it leads to free layups or wide open 3's. pick and roll defense was also a problem and thibs needs to fix that. it has been a problem this whole year and kudos to Cleveland for using that against the bulls
Warriors WRECKED Rockets every single time they played. Average Margin of Victory: 17.75 Closest Game: 11 Record: 4-0 So, no, IF Warriors beat Grizzlies and Rockets beat Clips, 1. The Warriors already know how to kill the Rockets, and 2. They will have been battle tested by Memphis.
Sigh. Hopefully it's just a sprain and he's only out for a couple. Should be enough time when they go to CHI

he went to get a rebound or something and landed on someones foot and probably just twisted his ankle, went to the locker room they'll show it when the game comes back on
I'm I haven't been watching it all so I have no idea, I just turned it on after I saw this thread. The box score is all I need. What happened with Iman?
Shumpert/JR were the best additions ever. You heard the speculation about Lamarcus Aldridge going to the Cavs? Lol I don't even know how that'd work out

Hey Winningduh, in your opinion how long ago was this game over? Just asking for Justrec who's in denial
I'm watching the game right now and it's what's going to happen in the next 3. Bulls don't have a player that can guard Lebron efficiently and still guard Kyrie, and be on the jumpshooters. They don't even have JR and Kevin and they're getting blown out right now it's ridic

OK if Shumpert's injury is serious the basketball gods really don't want lebron winning a ring this year, how can this be happening.
Last comment but Memphis just punched a hole in GSW game, if you double curry and push up on him without fouling he gets uncomfortable and commits turnovers. Thats up the flow of his game in turn, his jump shot. All props to steph for MVP but I think James should've gotten it.
