I had the Warriors pulling off the upset only if Bogut was able to play, but once he got hurt, I thought they were done. But winning game 1 in LA? Damn. That's kind of a big deal.

As far as upsets go, I've got the Nets (6) over the Raptors (3), and I've got the Warriors (6) over the Clippers (3).

Another potential upset to watch out for: Memphis (7) over OKC (2).

I shouldn't want the Hawks to win because that would just make the the road to the ECF for Chi/Was much easier, but I dislike the Pacers immensely and would enjoy watching them lose in the first round.

If the Pacers lose to the Hawks in the 1st round, I don't think I could breathe...I'd be laughing so hard. What a chokejob that would be.

I use to hate it for a year or so. But after thinking about it for 5 years I've grown to love it.

Too bad that love will die 10 years from now and my hate for the finale will return.

Pacers look like total ****!
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.

We should have stayed at the 5 seed bracket. We could have had a great chance at the ECF :(

We still have a shot. The heat are at their all time weakest. They're beatable.


EDIT: Road teams thus far - 3-0

It's a shame that Marquis doesn't even have half the talent of his brother. He really should've stayed at Kentucky.

Lance Stephenson is costing himself millions
