I don't know what voodoo shit SnoBorderZero and frankyt used to force a Game 7 in the Clippers/Rockets series, but fuck you for not extending that magic to the Bulls/Cavs series. |

What a game! I'm confident about Sunday's game, I think we just sucked the life out of the Clippers. Remember, they'll always be the Clippers until they prove otherwise. Go Rockets!

Crazy ending. Def fell asleep after the first half.
Would like to see the Clips win though because I think they play the Warriors better, but the Rockets and Warriors are becoming heated rivals, so this would just add another chapter. But lets see if we get two game 7s for Sunday.

Rockets will get crushed by the Warriors for sure, but I'd still love to see them get to the Conference Finals. After the numerous 1st-round exits we've endured since 1997, it would be a great feeling.

Talk about embarrassment for the Clippers. So... it's Golden State vs Rockets and Atlanta vs Cleveland. What are you guys expecting? SnoBorderZero frankyt |

I'm pulling for a Cavs rockets series but it depends on Kyrie and I think Warriors win in 6.

After this Clippers series, LeBron should be scared of the Rockets.

We can take Cleveland (we beat them both times in regular season), but Golden State is going to be very tough to get past. Series could easily be over in 5, but once again the X-factor is Dwight Howard's rim protection and whether or not the Rockets can shore up their weak rotations off of pick and rolls that they had a tough time defending against the Clippers. Clippers won't always make you pay for leaving them open, Warriors will, so turnovers need to be cut down and help defense needs to be better.

Lakers with the number 2 pick. 76ers plans always backfire for a top pick.
Lets go Houston!

It's kind of sad that LeBron has defined this decade of basketball. |

LeBron vs Golden State I expect a lot of voodoo magic from SnoBorderZero and frankyt . If you guys are successful, I will do a Top 10 list of the best Hangin with Mr Cooper episodes. It will be my gift to the city of Oakland, California. |

Be very interested in this series, curious to see Irving vs Curry.
I think Warriors win but I hope they don't. They just have so much more depth.

I think Warriors win but I hope they don't. So you rooted against LeBron and the Miami Heat but root in favor of LeBron and the Cleveland Cavaliers. I will never understand you, Franklyn. |

Warriors will take it in 5, Cleveland is not going to have fun defending this team.

Warriors will take it in 5, Cleveland is not going to have fun defending this team. LeBron might have a small advantage since he's gotten WAY more rest and practice than the Warriors. I think the series might go to 6 or 7 games. 5 might be an accurate prediction if the Bulls series had gone the distance and the Hawks series wouldn't have been a joke. The Playoffs were struggle free for LeBron. The Warriors have mostly been busting their asses off. They'll probably lose a game or two due to exhaustion. This is, more or less, what happened to the Spurs in 2013. The Heat had WAY more energy than them. The Warriors need to play smart basketball if they wanna beat LeBron, like the Spurs did in 2014. |

To that same point I can say the Warriors have been more tested and are more prepared, unlike the Cavaliers who haven't faced much difficulty outside of the Bulls. None of the teams Cleveland has played can prepare them for the Warriors, and even if LeBron plays well, the Warriors' depth is much better than the Cavaliers' and Curry will easily outperform Irving. I still stand by Warriors in 5.

I still stand by Warriors in 5. LeBron still feels guilty about "the decision." He probably won't slack off like usual. 6 or 7 feels more accurate. The only way I can see LeBron winning just one game is if he pulls another 2007 or 2011 or 2014 and just sleepwalks on the court. |

He might want to win, but that doesn't mean he will. The Warriors are better than the Cavaliers at every position except SF for James, and that includes coaching, bench depth, everything. It's not going to be an easy series for the Warriors, but I don't think it'll be too tough either.

It's not going to be an easy series for the Warriors, but I don't think it'll be too tough either. Regardless of who wins I'm not expecting this to be a memorable Finals, which is a shame because it's the 10th anniversary of the incredible Spurs vs Pistons Finals. That was the best Finals of the 2000's. Lakers vs Pacers was fun. Heat vs Mavericks was fun. Lakers vs Celtics was fun. But that Spurs-Pistons Finals in 2005 was something else. It's one of the all-time greats. I was really hoping the stars would have aligned and we would have gotten something awesome like we did 10 years ago, but all the exciting teams didn't make it. The Pacers, which were the Heat's toughest opponent for like 2 years in a row, didn't make the Playoffs. The Bulls need to find another star player because D-Rose is never gonna be great. The Clippers choked. I don't wanna shit on your parade because I know the Warriors are your hometown team and Steve Kerr is awesome, but Warriors vs LeBron sounds lame to me. |
