denya 1,661 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 For me personal I think is easier for predictions in East conference, I agree will be Toronto vs Bucks east final. For West conference for me is not as essy. I honest think if Houston defeat Utah then they could defeat GSW in next round. If San Antonio can get away win against Denver then I think San Antonio win their home games. I will say Houston vs OKC West final to be different and Bucks to beat Houston in the final.

SkylineBlue 23,333 Posted April 13, 2019 Author Share Posted April 13, 2019 First round west: Golden state to sweep the clippers Houston to beat Utah in 6 OKC to beat Portland in game 7 Struggling with Denver/Spurs but I'm going to go Denver in 6 Semi finals GSW in a 7 game series Struggling with Denver/OKC again but going to go OKC in 6 Conference finals: GSW in 5 First round east: Milwaukee in 5 Boston in 6 Philly in 5 Toronto to sweep the Magic Semi finals Milwaukee to beat Celtics in 6 Philly in 7 Conference finals Milwaukee in 6 Finals: GSW in 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperLeeMcCulloch 2,330 Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Brooklyn just took the 1st game in Philly, they now have a great chance with a free hit the next game to take a potential 2-0 lead home, big pressure on the 76ers now. Think Toronto get past the Magic in 5 or 6 but can see it being a tough series for Toronto, Orlando have one of the best defences since the all star break and have been on a bit of a roll.

SkylineBlue 23,333 Posted April 13, 2019 Author Share Posted April 13, 2019 Philly were absolutely rank rotten. Reddick and Simmons were miles off the pace. I don't think either hit double digits for points; Reddick fouled out on about 5. If it wasn't for Jimmy that would have been a blow out. Embiid and Johnson checking their phones on the bench too. Garbage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garbage. Simmons is becoming a liability for Philly, teams know how to stop him from scoring since he has no jumpshot and its then forcing Embiid to throw up 3's because Simmons is the one posting up rather than it being Embiid as there trying to cover Simmons weakness. Thry need to sort something out quickly or its bye bye in the 1st round. Orlando done well to scrape out a win in Toronto and the Spurs also steal game 1 from Denver.

denya 1,661 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Embiid is a idiot. Toronto normal lose their first game in playoffs they will win in 5 or 6. San Antonio winning in Denver is very big because I dont think San Antonio will lose at home. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperLeeMcCulloch 2,330 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 OKC knocked out last night with probably the best buzzer beater I have ever seen, Damian Lillard with 50 and the winner what a series he had. As much as I like Westbrook he has been acting like a petulant child since the playoffs started and got what he deserved, also think OKC should heavily consider moving him this off season if its even possible someone has to go from there anyway whether it is Westbrook, Donovan or someone else.

DAME TIME don't think they will find anyone in the league willing to take on Russ's contract. He has 3 years left on a what, $41m per year deal? Plus if they trade him they'll need to trade PG too SuperLeeMcCulloch 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see it happening myself but they need to change it up somehow, surround Westbrook with shooters or get a true point guard and move him to shooting guard, Ferguson at shooting guard that series and he hit a grand total of 3 points during 3 games. They need something different at Center as well because Adams got exposed big time against Portland. RangersMedia 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their only real options are to trade 1 of Adams/Schroder/Westbrook/George if they want a partial rebuild or more if they want to totally rebuild. Their cap space is fucked and they're getting smashed with luxury tax so there's very, very little they can do. Only Felton is becoming a FA in the summer and he was on a vet contract I think. They traded away their 1st round picks too so if they do nothing they have to hope: - Westbrook learns how to shoot again - Adams doesn't fuck up like he did in that Portland series, he was terrible - Roberson recovers from injury and gives them the defensive boost they badly need - Ferguson shoots the 3 better. In the regular season he was around 30% which isn't bad, he's still young - Diallo learns how to shoot. Defensively he's excellent and he's very athletic but he needs to add perimeter shooting to his game to make it in the league. If he does then he'll be a solid 2nd round pick All of that seems like a really big ask. Big decisions ahead for Presti. Don't think firing Donovan will do anything Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
denya 1,661 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Westbrook has was acting like child all season. Happy Portland eliminate them. I think way they play they are too good for San Antonio or Denver. Also is good to see Clippers defeat Warriors again last night, played very very good first half, Lou Williams dominate again.

Don't think firing Donovan will do anything There pretty much stuck just now, sure I seen somewhere they had the highest wagebill in the nba, pretty poor return for such investment. Sweet Lou Williams putting on a shooting clinic against the Warriors who are looking very vulnerable just now, theyll get out of the 1st round but the Rockets must fancy there chances especially with Capela at Center, with Cousins getting injured there very weak there just now, 7 out of 10 of Williams assists last night were to Harris and everytime he just powered through whatever the Warriors threw at him.

SuperLeeMcCulloch 2,330 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Well done to the Raptors, Kawhi is an absolute monster but they got contributions from everyone in the team at key moments especially VanVleet who was an absolute killer in the 4th quarters and they deserved to win it. Shame that the Warriors ended up ravaged with injuries as I think it would have went to 7 if they had more luck but I guess they have had there fair share over the last few years.

Had their fair share mate remember Zaza on Kawhi back in 2017? No sympathy for them they took a risk by weakening the bench in order to afford KD and Cousins and it didn't pay off Buzzing for the Raptors they have been really fun to watch. Nick Nurse is a really talented coach the guy did a lot for British basketball too Draft night up next and hopefully an AD to Lakers trade complete before then!
