I don't see what you really have to be worried about. First round will be a breeze and if brooklyn make it to round 2 Pierce will be glaring at your bench as he's rolled into the stadium with a stretcher. Most likely a fractured hip injury trying to guard derozan.

But thats a pretty shakey if, unless everyone is already counting us out(which wont be the first time).

Im not expecting a whole lot for the raps in the playoffs, I mean if we're trying to stay grounded in reality. This is an experience builder for a team already growing with talent and confidence.

The most important lesson they need to learn is how to harness "heart" and get some grit on them. More importantly, this will open up some glaring holes in the team. Which will telll me if this is a playoff caliber team for the foreseeable future or not. Im placing my bets on the former.

I got zero emotion about these playoffs because it wont be our last.

Good lord, I'm looking at those regular season records and standings and the EC is so goddamn pathetic. I mean, they've been shit for literally half my life (I'm 27 btw) so it's not that surprising. But still, it's just...bad.

Looks like the Bulls got the playoff path they wanted, not like it matters. I wouldn't be surprised to see WAS knock em off in 7, despite the inexperience.

Im hoping we at least get SOME upsets in the first two rounds. Make this shit worth watching this year.

They won't, but I'm good with that. They have had an incredible and fun to watch run. But old man Wade is looking flabby and weak out there, Bosh is streaky, Ray Allen is wrapping up his career, Chalmers is Chalmers overall the team is just run the fuck down from 3 straight long seasons to the finals in a row.

There are about 6 teams that I would classify as contenders, I never seen that before. I don't have a team to root for, I guess the Spurs because this could realistically be their last chance due to their age.

I feel sorry for Suns fans. 48 games won. Is that the highest ever? I remember the 45 win Rockets in the early 2000's, nothing else sticks out. The disparity between the east and the west is laughable.

Can you usually find playoff games online after the fact? Going to watch as much as I can live, but I'm 12 hours ahead of EST and my connection is crap.

Lac vs Gsw and Mem vs Okc are the only series I feel will be great in round 1.

I'm pulling for gsw for the upset and I want to see if MeM can abuse okc enough inside to make that series a dogfight.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the HEAT win it all for the fabled 3peat. Back to back to back, Jack. Hey rest of the league, you can just give up now. We already won.

LOLcats, you stupid jabronis. BronBron's gonna break your fucking back, and make you humble. HEAT in 5. PEACE.

Time to watch the Raps lose to balanced officiating because of the nets vets getting respect calls.

You cannot let that crowd get into this. Between that and a Nets shooting slump, that's a potential huge swing.

Yeah, that's a great crowd. Cool that they're outside as well. I had no idea the raptors were so popular in Toronto.

They are crazy. They still boo Vince Carter.
