First

-EDIT-

On the real, I think Indiana advances and we get the rematch that everyone's talked about as the most sure thing EVER since the last off-season.

They will face Indiana, the result expected since day 1 of the season.

That said though, I expect Wizards to take them to game 7.

Washington has a shot (they're 2-1 in Indy in the series), but I think Indiana wins that series and we get Indy-Miami in the ECF.

Lebron in the ECF (31 G) (Average Opponent DRTG: 100.8 | -5.6)

Code: Select all

MPG   PTS   TRB   AST   TOV   STL   FGA   FTA   TS%   TOV%   PER    ORTG

44.9  30.7  8.8   6.3   3.4   1.7   21.7  10.6 .581  .115    29.6   116.3


Since 09 (25 G) (Average Opponent DRTG: 100.0 | -6.4) :o

Code: Select all

MPG   PTS   TRB   AST   TOV   STL   FGA   FTA   TS%   TOV%   PER    ORTG

44.6  31.9  8.7   5.8   3.5   1.5   22.2  10.9 .591  .114    30.3   117.1


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since 2009, Lebron has faced the league's best defensive team in the league in the ECF every year, at an average of -6.4. Facing Indiana this season would continue the trend, and they would be the toughest one yet at 99.3/-7.4.
But in his home dwelling...the hi-top faded warrior is revered. *Smack!* The sound of his palm blocking the basketball... the sound of thousands rising, roaring... the sound of "get that sugar honey iced tea outta here!"

Pacers will beat the Wizards in 7. I will post my prediction when Indiana advances. Until then, glad Miami has a little bit of rest

stop sleeping on my Wiz. That Indy series is totally different with Wall now finding his groove. Shouldve killed us when they had the chance. Wall was shooting nearly 46% for over 2 months while putting up like 21 & 9. Then with 5 games left in the season he went in a horrible shooting/scoring slump which was 14 games including the playoffs. Then out of nowhere he finds his confidence last game. He's never hot or playing well for just 1 game. He'll be mad confident the rest of this series and the best player on the floor. Indy is in trouble

Yup, it's hilarious

In terms of matchups, Wizards are probably easier but I want the Pacers in the ECF. Heat/Pacers were already scheduled to meet in the ECF again since the start of the RS

Apparently, Miami is Lebron and a bunch of Titos.

I actually wanted to see some fresh new faces as competition. I am so, so over playing PP and KG in the playoffs. Enough...ugh. I wanted the Raptors. I can deal with playing Indy ONE more time. I'd probably still prefer Washington though. Ease of opponent doesn't bother me one bit. As long as we move on to the next round.
