I couldn't get the bracket thing to work.
EAST
1. Chicago vs. 8. Philadelphia - Chicago in 4
2. Miami vs. 7. New York - Miami in 6
3. Indiana vs. 6. Orlando - Indiana in 7
4. Boston vs. 5. Atlanta - Boston in 6
1. Chicago vs. 4. Boston - Chicago in 7
2. Miami vs. 3. Indiana - Miami in 6

WEST
1. San Antonio vs. 8. Utah - San Antonio in 5
2. Oklahoma vs. 7. Dallas - Oklahoma in 7
3. LA Lakers vs. 6. Denver - LA Lakers in 5
4. Memphis vs. 5. Clippers - Memphis in 6
1. San Antonio vs. 4. Memphis - San Antonio in 7
2. Oklahoma vs. LA Lakers - Oklahoma in 7
1. San Antonio vs. 2. Oklahoma - Oklahoma in 7
FINALS
1. Chicago vs. 2. Oklahoma - Chicago in 7
Chicago - 84
Oklahoma - 79
Every part of me is wanting to pick San Antonio to win the entire thing but I don't know. Something tells me they won't stay 100% throughout the playoffs.

With the addition of Perkins and Fisher and the dramatic improvement from Westbrook and Harden mixed with Durant's leadership makes OKC a really tough team to beat. The finals should be really good.

Tie breaker Miami 102 OKC 99. Give me double bonus points when it ends in OT.
Heat/Thunder would be EPIC for the league. I think the Heat have just been chilling these last 2 weeks & are about to go on a tear through the Knicks & whoever wins the Pacers/Magic series. They beat the Bulls similarly to how they did last year & then we see if LeBron chokes or not.

of course this all banks on the ever injured Derek Rose actually playing games. Otherwise they will get bounced by the Hawks, Heat win the east and Thunder beat Miami in 7.

Chicago is going to run through Philly in this round. I love the addition of Richard Hamilton for the playoffs. He's already making a big impact just from one half. 5-6, 13 points with 2 rebounds and 2 assists. Not too shabby. Their starting lineup is strong and their bench isn't horrible either.
Philly on the other hand is lacking in size and both their offence and their defence is lacking compared to Chicago. This is going to be a short series.

Damn, that's brutal. They still beat Philly but The Heat just received a first class ticket to the finals. Boston/Atlanta should be happy too. They get a decent match up next round no matter what.

I can still see this Bulls team making it the the Eastern Conference Finals. I can't see the Hawks beating them. The Celtics I could see beating the Bulls though but not the Hawks.

Wow, Garnett shit all over the Hawks last night. 28 points, 14 rebounds with 5 blocks and 3 steals. Nice to see Boston advance. I like their chances a lot over Philly. That side of the bracket is fucked for me now with Chicago gone.

the owner of the Hawks calling him old & a "dirty" player lit a fire under his ass.
there's a few guys in the league you can talk about like that. He's not one of them.
imagine if a Nugget called Kobe old before game 7........it'd be over before it started

Very true. Kobe would run wild on that game if they did. Not that he won't already do that in a game 7 situation with their big men sucking some serious ass this series. I hate the Lakers though. Hopefully Lawson and the Nuggets can steal this series with a game 7 win.
The Clippers/Grizzlies series has been great so far. So happy it's going to a game 7. Memphis wins back the home court advantage as well. Should be a hell of a game

LAC had an 8 point lead or something mid 4th quarter before Randolph decided to go crazy on the offensive boards which began that 10-0 run and after they never looked back. I wish I had watched more of this series

Ty Lawson is playing a hell of a game right now. This 7th game has been great so far. Only one more quarter to go and the Lakers have a 1 point lead. Denver was down 16 at one point during that 3rd quarter.
Lakers shut them down late. Disappointing to see Denver battle back to lose like that in the end. That, and I hate the Lakers. Oh well. Good series. Kobe is tired though and they don't have home court advantage over a well-rested Thunder team who have looked great all season.
Also, nice win from Boston earlier. They barely made it out of that game though. Philly was up most of that game I believe.

I really dont like how they start 2nd round games before the 1st round ends. It's almost as if they want to rush to finish things off. Waiting another day doesn't hurt, it actually helps with nagging injuries especially after the jampacked season they just played
