So far from what you have seen, who do you think has the best shot to come back and win the series?

Hawks but it would take Morris having a complete melt down and changing the entire dynamic of the series.

Only semi-realistic one is the Celtics.

All of them are very low but I'll say Grizzlies. I think they still have some lineup tricks they can do, to try and come back. Still a very low chance though

Best shot? Thunder.

Who will come back? None of them.

Need a special like player in Westbrook to pull through. Aside from others, don't really see it.

None of them. People saying Boston are blinded by that 1 seed. None of the other teams on this list have lost a home game yet, and the Celts have lost two.

That works out to a little less than a 70 percent chance none of these 6 teams comes back, which isn't necessarily a guarantee. I voted Celtics because some of the Bulls' shooters may revert to regular-season form, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Atlanta tie the series up these next two games.

None but in terms of best shot it's very close between celtics and thunder.

I could realistically see Thunder or Hawks getting those series to 2-2 but probably will both be 3-1. Even if those teams held serve at home can't see them winning on the road.

I think Boston will split in Chicago. If Boston is down 3-1 it's not unfathomable they could win the last 3 although very unlikely.

Blazers, Grizzlies, Pacers no chance, be shocked if any of them even pushed the series past 5 games.
