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.
if your a sports fan you would know that anything could happen. and if you know anything about the playoffs, it is SO MUCH different than the regular season. teams have time to scout and watch tape against their opponents. good basketball teams don't let their opponents beat them the same way over and over again. its a 7 game series we are talking about not a back to back game in LA then NY.
Honestly now that San Antonio is out Golden State or Houston will go to the finals and no matter who they meet they will beat them. If you watched any basketball all year you understood the West>East its an objective opinion seeing as how my team, The Celtics were destroyed by Cleveland.

he was averaging 12 points during the season, are you telling me a guy who played 20+ minutes per game, 12 points and shot 40% from the field wouldn't have made a contribution, especially with KLOVE out aswell?

nobody is winning in the east UNLESS the bulls come out of it. everybody else would get demolished, the bulls can beat anybody
i hope this is the same jr smith we are talking about. he shoots like 42% from the field and a decent 37% from the 3 point line. just because he plays on the cavs doesn't mean he is the same 6th man player of the year that espn thinks he is. more likely than not smith will shoot a team out of a game instead of bringing them back in it.
also the bulls have the best 3 point defense in the whole nba. they would contain both jr smith and kevin love if they even play.

oh look it is medical doctor jonnguy2015 here to give us his professional medical opinion
if I were the grizzlies I would play conley. there is no way the grizzlies beat the warriors without conley, so what is there to lose? if they lose right now there still is a good 5 months until preseason starts. he will be fully healthy before next season starts. I don't see any type of injury that could keep him out for that long.
Judging from how severe Conley's injury is, he won't be back until Game 5 at the very earliest. I would bet on him not returning at all.

it's not like their shooting is an aberration, they've been shooting lights out the entire season dude.
Yes, the guy who averaged 10 rebounds a game, was a stretch 4, meaning Pau or Noah - whoever you have guarding him would not be in the paint giving lebron and kyrie a nice driving lane and probably a kick out to him once the help from that defender arrived wouldn't make a difference, nor would JR Smith another 3pt wizard, no you're right. The absence of two key players would've made zero difference.
oh just saying for all you cavs fans out there. when the cavs lose, don't make excuses on jr smith being suspended and kevin love out for an injury. the bulls would have beaten them either way and there is no stopping them now
wizards are playing well. I don't see them losing 4 out of the next 6. grizzlies need conley back, and GS won't shoot that well from the field again. bulls are gonna have to win game 2, cause once they do they can dust off the cavs at the UC
if any team has a 3-1 lead in the series, I just don't see the other team coming back

the goaltending was a call yeah, i miss the charge though. Lebron has a reputation for chase down blocks, so that's why he got the call. It's not a superstar call as much as it is a reputation call, like how Roy Hibbert would get the benefit of the doubt in an in the paint lateral call

im worried about the refs this series. blatant goaltending, blatant pushoff charge. i've never seen a superstar helped by the refs so much

i'm not making excuses, jr smith and klove beng out will make cavs lose 2 games, that's why Isaid it's going to 6. I just don't think this game 1 is one of the two games lol

devante won't stop making excuses until the cavs lose. everytime bulls win a game it will be excuses galore
