Why don't people think the Hawks win this series? Like why do people keep saying I hope the Hawks can it 7? Everything that has happened this series points to the Hawks being a tough match up for them and if it wasn't for Scola going off for 20 points the Pacers would be down 0-3.

no idea why Paul George has had this historic slump, after effects of being raised so high in the public eye/getting a lot of money? What do you guys think?

KD has been completely locked down.

Doubt it stays that way, but still.

This can't be real life guys. Pacers losing to Atlanta, down 2-1 and looking beyond shook. Thunder 1-1 series down 15 to the Grizzlies. What is going is this Christmas in April? Not saying these teams will lose necessarily but my goodness does it feel good right now!

Chicago fans getting their Wiz avatars and sigs ready.

I'd laugh my ass off if there are any Wizard fans from Chicago after getting eliminated by that team. Could they really go that low?

This might be a 7 game series. Then id hope the Wizards take them to 7 games lol.

Indy isnt passing atlanta bro..guess thats secure by now.

A part of me says ATL can take the series, but trying to be unbiased if the Pacers win the next game they are very much alive but it will still be along series if that happens. Indy has not played their best ball yet to be fair. Hibbert I swear to god only plays good against us and sucks against every one else smh

The Indy hater in me says : I hope ATL takes the next 2 games and we all laugh at Indy with all their **** talking against the Heat. It would be a slap to their faces if they get bounced in the first round. They fought all season to get the first seed for them to fall off like this? Too sweet. They were eyeing us all season and they might not even make it to the ECF. Their first seed for the year would be null after all they went through

Just thinking I can't believe have overrated Paul George is and worse how loosely the superstar label is thrown around. Him and his whole team are straight frontrunners... It's funny man I listen to Robin Lundburg and he keeps saying how he, and he's mostly joking, but he says he's waiting for the 30 for 30 to come out on the Pacers collapse and what's really going on.

KnockDownTheJ · Post #176 » by **KnockDownTheJ** » Fri Apr 25, 2014 2:06 am

They're in serious trouble if RWB can't play. We saw this movie last year.

That would be something else tho if the Wizards made the ECF. I mean it's possible

Man the Nets right now are our biggest competition in the East

Hopefully the Raptors miraculously beat them.

We would have our easiest run since 2011 to the Finals if this **** goes down lol.

Alot of guys feeling confident but dont be naive, BKN and the Wiz have a shot to take us out because of the matchups.

There is a reason why going to the Finals 4 times in a roll is so freaking hard. Teams get better, hyped up teams get exposed, teams get older, teams get tired, teams get blah, blah, blah.

Law of averages says the way we are playing and struggling with the Bobcats means we aint getting to Finals and if we do get to the Finals we going to lose them.

Not saying this is going to happen but damn its going to be tough.

I wouldn't even take the Wizards lightly if they reach the ECF. I've seen a scene before where a young stud guard gets confidence in the playoffs and takes his game to the next level, and that was a rookie named Dwyane Wade.

If we face the Wizards I hope they go in there with the right focus, because Wall Is going to go there with a chip on his shoulder.

Still too premature to talk about it though since Chicago has the right veterans to take 4 of the next 5, but I don't see it happening.
