The CAVs are the 4th seed behind the 76ers, and the GWS are the defending hurting champs that could find themselves in trouble.... Playoffs are coming!

Should be an interesting playoff since Curry is hurt.

Re: ***OFFICIAL THREAD- NBA 2017 to 2018
the leadup to the playoffs is pretty exciting too in the west. win-loss records so close that 3-9 can still swap spots or be out. playoff quality games before it even starts.
east bracket looks to be interesting too. lots of jockeying for position, getting that 3 spot is a hard goal for the cavs and the red hot sixers (to potentially face the injury plagued boston instead of toronto before conference finals)

Re: ***OFFICIAL THREAD- NBA 2017 to 2018
WOW! What a start to the playoffs....Bucks-Celtic series is what I expected....Pacers crush the Cavs, so the game 2 is a must for the Cavs.....Heat squared it away with the Sixers- first lost in 17 games ...but I must say that I didn't expect a fight from the Timberwolves against the Rockets....Houston needs to keep their foot on the pedal, because Minnesota has enough talent to give them a run.....Spurs look sad

lotsa great games so far, cavs looked extra bad on both sides of the ball in game1. didn't expect wade to turn it up on the road in game2 and pelicans and twolves looked good game1.

I expected the GWS to be up on the Spurs 3-0, but the PELICANs are just crushing the BLAZERs! Games are not even close....bust out the brooms for both of those series . This has to be the must interesting 1st round than I can remember.....

Re: ***OFFICIAL THREAD- NBA 2017 to 2018
Well, the PELICANs did sweep, and GWS didn't...But the series with the TIMBERWOLVES and ROCKETS just got very interesting...I expected the BUCKs/Celtics series to be tough, since Irving is out, and I'm still believing that Celtics will win in 7....RAPTORS vs Wizards also got interesting...the pushing and shoving is hilarious...Mr.EDGE808 wrote: ↑Fri Apr 20, 2018 4:17 amI expected the GWS to be up on the Spurs 3-0, but the PELICANs are just crushing the BLAZERs!

Re: ***OFFICIAL THREAD- NBA 2017 to 2018
dame shoulda wound his watch before the postseason, he got locked down all series. pelicans look strong, not gsw w/curry strong, but if he's out they may have a shot. although if the warriors malaise keeps up, maybe they can update the meme to warriors blew a 3-0 lead. cavs are rough to watch, lotsa bad turnovers and bad d, whoever wins that series is probably out in round 2 with raptors heading to the conference finals. no clue who's going to make it to the finals from the rockets side of the bracket, I could see all 4 teams possibly getting to the conference finals. personally want to see 76ers and bucks advance, mostly to see unicorn battle giannis v embiid. if kyrie was healthy, I'd probably want the celts to win out but with him out they would probably get smoked by any west team.Mr.EDGE808 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 23, 2018 4:15 am Well, the PELICANs did sweep, and GWS didn't...But the series with the TIMBERWOLVES and ROCKETS just got very interesting...I expected the BUCKs/Celtics series to be tough, since Irving is out, and I'm still believing that Celtics will win in 7....RAPTORS vs Wizards also got interesting...the pushing and shoving is hilarious...

Re: ***OFFICIAL THREAD- NBA 2017 to 2018
Well... it did turn out to be a seven game series...and the Cavs to me got lucky.....Cavs are going need more than luck to beat the Raptors, and I believe Toronto is going to win this series.
But I'm, going to watch cause LEBRON is just amazing to watch.... Houston just KILLED the Jazz, and GWS made the Pelicans look like penguins ....Western Finals are starting to look like an epic showdown

Re: ***OFFICIAL THREAD- NBA 2017 to 2018
Watched some of the Cavs games yesterday. Man, they let the guys get away with a lot underneath. Lebron looks like he was getting mugged every time he went down low.
