Chi and Raps split their 4 games but Chi has a better conference record. Sorry for the random question, but I am a bit confused.

Nets in 6 is my prediction, experience a factor here.


Raptors won the atlantic.


The Atlantic is arguably the worst division in basketball


What does that have to do with anything? he asked why the raptors are 3rd seed instead of chi. That was the tie breaker... :crazy:

The Nets are hugely favored to win this series, and that's probably going to end up happening.

BUT I STILL BELIEVE, RAPS IN 4!

5v5? We got this

8v5? I'm a bit worried

This might very well end up being the best series of the first round. Love the hatred building up between the two fanbases.

Yeah, I'm thinking the RealGM servers are going to crash either way at the end of this series, based on some of these posts. Either the Raps win, or they lose and all their fans cry about how they got robbed by the refs.

I can guarantee one thing. No matter who wins or loses.....


.... it was a conspiracy by the NBA and refs decided the outcome.

Not that crazy considering they represent a whole country. Could you imagine if it was the other way around and America had a lone knicks team in Canada!? Now that would be crazy

I hate that the nets tanked. I want the Raps in 6 but the refs might have other ideas.
