I usually don't start watching the NBA until after the Final 4. There are some good series this year including possibly the second and third best teams in the NBA squaring off in round one in the Clippers-Spurs series.

Watching Cavs-Celts right now. Brad Stevens is a really, really good coach.
 
That Spurs game starts so late. I really like the playoff matchups this year too though. Cavs v Bulls 2nd round could be pretty sweet. I was watching a Kobe documentary this morning, and Patterson and Van Exel were both in the highlights from old playoff games. We need some Bearcats out there again. After this year's draft, it will be 304 straight 1st round picks since a UC player was taken. Hard to believe.

Yeah that is a troubling stat but not too shocking given the talent level Mick has brought in. Also, why were the Saturday night games 7 and 9:30 but on Sunday they are going 8 and 10:30? Seems backwards to me.
 
I don't know why, but I keep thinking Dallas is going to figure it out. Big one tonight though.

The Raptors are the only team to lose at home so far...and in a year when home-court advantage was at an all-time low.

Raptors would have been a good team in 1995. Their three best players are all volume shooting guards that aren't good three point shooters. Wizards win that series easily.

Dallas is hard to figure out. Part of me thinks we go back to Houston for game 5 tied 2-2 but I could easily see them getting swept or down 3-1.

The Raptors really fell off. I can't believe Lou Williams got 6th man of the year. No way he was the best player off the bench this year. Gobert qualified for that, how did he not win?

Would have been unfair to give it to Gobert on a technicality that he didn't start to begin the season. To me it was clearly Thomas from Boston, he is the only reason they made the playoffs.

I could easily get talked into Thomas, even Crawford over Williams. I know it doesn't matter for real value, but Lou Williams was a free agent all year in my fantasy league. He's just not that good.

Gobert came off the bench for 45 and started 37. I think it should be fine as long as you come off the bench more than start, but idk.
 
That'd be awesome if we put the old Bearcat that used to be at center court, faded inside the 3 pt line. Like NO has with their logo.
 
Anyone feeling courageous enough to make some picks today? I got Hawks, Bulls, Warriors, Grizzlies.

Without putting much thought into it...

Warriors in 4
Grizzlies in 5
Spurs in 6
Rockets in 4

Hawks in 5
Wizards in 4
Bulls in 4
Cavs in 4


Warriors over Grizzlies in 6
Spurs over Rockets in 6

Hawks over Wizards in 5
Bulls over Cavs in 6

Spurs over Warriors in 7
Bulls over Hawks in 6

Spurs over Bulls in 6
 
The Cavs will come out of the east and the Warriors out of the west. Cavaliers win the finals in 6 games. Golden State has no one to guard LeBron and Kyries quickness has bothered Steph Curry in the past.
