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.
bulls need to get the ball down into post. they have to get pau gasol going early. the cavs will bring help defense and the bigs need to be careful of not turning the ball over. as long as the bulls shoot about 37-40% of their 3's then i think they will win the series.
this honestly might be the most important series of the 2015 playoffs. this could go either way depending on how well these 2 teams play. cleveland needs to attack the bulls defense through the pick and roll. that has been their weakness this whole year. the bulls big defenders aren't so good at stepping up to the pick and usually allow the player to curl around the screen or dribble into a wide open 3

You really need to just go look at their record post-Lebron "injury". They had the best record in the league I don't remember the exact number but it was disgusting, hence why they went from having no chance of going in the playoffs to the 2nd in the East in 2 months.
dude teams WON't and DON'T trade for players you just drafted. you either get it done on draft night or they are on your team for the next few years.

you draft shabazz napier you can most definitely find a team that needed a backup point guard, Miami would've easily been a possibility. You trade Shabbaz Napier for Michael Beasley if possible and/or a future first round pick.
its not easy drafting a player and trading them later on. napier wouldn't have helped them anyways and it would be really hard to trade him right after the draft ended.
basketball is a team game. no matter what you say the they need their supporting cast. kyrie and lebron can't do everything on offense. the reason why the miami heat won championships was because of shane battier, ray allen, mario chalmers and others

The thing we're missing in Toronto is a big man who can drop a double double, which when you have a backcourt like Toronto does a double double should be very easy for a big man.
We need someone who can body guys in the paint and not allow 16 freaking offensive rebounds in ONE game

Let me tell you dude Toronto has never ben serious about anything, look who they freaking drafted. They had a chance to draft Shabazz Napiar and instead we decided to draft that Bruno guy
of course we didn't need Shabazz but we could've most definitely traded him to a team for a future draft pick or an under payed forward which is what we really need.

Once those two get cold you still have Kyrie Irving who can get in the lane at any point in time, you still have the best player in the game, you still have Mike Miller off the bench, you still have Sean Marion.
cavs are playing great basketball right now even though i don't wanna admit it. but the thing is they are a 3 point oriented team. thats how they get so much penetration in the lane. once jr. smith and love get cold, they really struggle on offense

The only team stopping Cleveland from a ring this year is the Bulls, and by the bulls i mean Derrick Rose staying healthy.
