I wanted to pick the Raps to win it all, but I don't see it.

Same with the Wolves.

Rockets > Wolves in 5
Thunder > Jazz in 7 (Jazz' lack of exp go to guy bites em)
Blazers > Pelicans in 6
GS > SA in 4


Raptors > Wiz in 7 (tbh I find this series fascinating. But not for good reasons. Both teams are known choking dogs which means one fan base/org will meltdown for losing in the first round. I hope it's the Raptors)
Cavs > Pacers in 5
6'rs > Heat in 6
Bucks > Celtics in 6 (I get why 99% of ppl are picking Boston cuz Stevens + Milwaukee's insane inconsistency but I prescribe to best guy on the court makes a diff and Giannis is that by a mile)


Rockets > Thunder in 5 (Sorry Russ)
W's > Blazers in 4

Cavs > Raptors in 6 (Toronto inevitably chokes)
6'rs > Bucks in 6

W's > Houston in 7
Cavs > 6'rs in 6

W's > Cavs in 4 (till Lebron gets ousted I'm not picking against him making it here)

using this as a playoff chat...
Heat look like the Wolves all season: get up big in the 4th, then completely shit the bed. take long 2s, turn overs, airball layups, while giving up layup after layup on the other end (of course the refs have been complete trash too)

Pop going out of his way to praise LMA for battling through injuries/adversity was some top notch trolling of Kawhi.

Should have said reveal yourself! Not 100% positive it's him but yeah. Posts about similar stuff and used similar words.

Don't wanna say who tho cuz if it's him, he didn't 'come out' as him and I dont wanna blow up his spot . If it isn't him then I don't wanna look like a fucking idiot :lol:

Just want him and phd posting here again!

If your Portland who would you rather ship between Lillard and McCollum? If I was a Portland fan id WANT one of them gone for more balance.
