I think that's what makes these playoffs even more interesting to me is that not many of the top contenders are really healthy. Lakers and Nets haven't been fully healthy in months so imo whichever team stays healthier will win the Chip but if both stumbles it opens it up to at least 6 or more other teams having a great chance to win it. Just like I've said since the Harden trade ill take Nets over anybody but I never would've thought they would have less then 10 games with all three stars on the court at the same time. If I had to place my money on the teams I would go with the them in this order. 1.Nets 2.Lakers 3.Clippers 4.Jazz 5.Bucks 6.Suns 7.Nuggets 8.76ers 9.Blazers 10.Heat As long as the Lakers don’t win, I’m cool with whatever lol I definitely have a team I'm hoping for but after that I'm good with a lot of the other teams winning it(Bucks,Nuggets,Jazz,Blazers etc). Like you said Lakers is the team I want to win the least mostly because i have a lot of family and friends that are Lakers fans and don't know if I can take them winning another. I'm kinda torn on the Nets winning it,I love Nash he's probably my favorite player ever and I've always been a fan of Harden but I just can't get myself to like them maybe that will change |

Now that Warriors game hurts even more. They worked that hard all season and lost the #1 seed in the last minute of that game. Now their reward for a incredible season probably gonna be a LBJ/AD lead Lakers team in round 1.

I'm glad the Warriors have two shots at getting into the top 8. They really ought to make it potentially having a home game with Memphis or San Antonio, we'll see what happens against LA, but I would be pretty disappointed if they lost both games.

I think they have a decent chance at LA but if not I think they can still get past Mem/SA pretty easily. Both 7/8 matchups are gonna be really fun and imo the loser of both are still gonna get the 8 seed. If Steph gets hot I don't think its a team in the league they can't beat in a win and you're in scenario especially if LeBron or AD aren't fully healed up. |

Picking Indiana & Washington tonight. I agree about Wizards over Boston but I think I would go with Charlotte over Indy but should be a good close game,with LeVert not playing I don't have much faith in them. I say Boston beats Char/Indy pretty easy for the 8th seed if Wizards wins tonight. I don't think Wizards will win a series against 6ers or Nets but I think they gonna scare whoever they play in the first round. For the West tomorrow I'm going with LA over GS but like I said earlier I think its gonna be a lot closer then people thinks and Grizzles over Spurs then GS gets the 8th by beating Grizzles. |

At this point, I have zero faith in the Celtics. I hope they make me look silly. |

Boston are my team and I’m scared about tonight, especially since those Pacers looking scary and we absolutely crumble against elite shooters |

Tatum was incredible tonight. I didn't think they had much of a chance against a hot Wizards team without Brown. Washington could be in huge danger if Indy plays like that again. I started great with my predictions.

Nets will crush them. Side note on the Nets, if it weren't for Harden I wouldn't mind them winning at all. I don't like Kyrie either, but if it was him and KD it'd be ight. I was always a fan of KD in OKC, and of course I'm grateful for the three years he spent with the Warriors, so the positives with him would outweigh the negatives with Kyrie. Harden just crushes all of that math though.

I can't say im a huge fan of Kyrie but I don't dislike him either like a lot of other people. He's just kind've there to me,that pretty much goes for KD and Harden too. The only reason I would be ok with the Nets winning is because of Nash. If I had my pick I would want the Bucks to come out of the East.

KD is my guy, but I'm not really a fan of Harden and I have total distain for Kyrie. I have no clue how high their ceiling is since they've barely played together, but they should take care of Boston pretty easily. |
