Play-In Tournament

• West: Lakers get 7, GS get 8
• East: Wiz get 7, a small crippled boy from the terminal ward in 8

Eastern Conference

First Round

• Sixers over the wet paper bag that beats Boston for the 8th seed in 4
• Nets over the Wiz in 6 - fken russ and beal are narcissitic enough to think they belong... and it's their greatest strength/weakness
• Bucks over Miami in 5 - If the bucks are in an elimination game and things are going south they might just scatter like it's a police raid in a meth lab. A first round exit for them would be an eye so black you can't blame it on the stairs.
• Knicks over the Hawks in 7

Eastern Conference Semis

• Sixers over the Knicks in 4
• Nets over the bucks in 6

Eastern Conference Finals

• Sixers over the Nets in 6 - I hope I'm wrong and I'm not super bullish about the Sixers being better. Despite the success for the Nets it's been a rough regular season and it might be too much to ask to get it done in year one.

Western Conference

First Round

• Utah over GS in 6
• Lakers over the Suns in 5
• Nuggets over Blazers in 7
• Clips over Mavs in 5

Western Conference Semis

• Clips over Utah in 7
• Lakers over Nugs in 6

Western Conference Finals

• Lakers over Clips in 5

NBA Finals

• Lakers over Sixers in 7 - Whether it's us or the Sixers, I see the finals as a slugfest that could go either way

Honestly though the only series that I'm confident on are the Nets and Sixers in their first round match ups. After that you could talk me into a lot of different 'upsets'.

It doesn't matter nets will dominate. You guys are not the knicks. You actually have talent and don't choke in the 4th.

Whatever makes you feel better, now take that L and F*** out here. This place for championship teams only.

I appreciate your humility, FSNY. I do feel that Thibs had done a heckuva job with the talent on your roster. No offense to the players, I just don't see the caliber of talent on the Knicks that I do with the Hawks. That's why I was rooting for Atlanta. I felt like the media machine that was already looking past ATL was insane. New York can win this series, but it's gonna be tough and I would favor Atlanta.

10 years from now they'll be crying same crap because they ran out from their excuses. You hear it from media hot taker himself, we going to run this town. They do everything to be who they are.

To be honest we blest for them to start their run now. We going for the chips while they settle for mediocrity. They not building new culture by any means. A lot of things they doing right now is exactly what's wrong with their franchise. Better half don't even know it.

I wont tell none. If I'm a nix fan right now I'm pissed. I'm a cowboy fan too, I know exactly whats happening. Sak Trashcot with fluke hopes. Its a disaster.

Objective?

Ten some years ago they were telling us lol nyets and who cares, look at them now. They insecure af right now. He came here talking smack after their loss, c'mon man. I was getting warnings from their mods for saying a lot less and trying to have conversation.

[ecuhus1981]

I didn't see his smack talk, that may be buried earlier in this thread. Or maybe you know him from other boards. But FSNY's post that you quoted didn't seem incendiary to me.
