Playoff Wins Prediction 

Post#1 » by Slingblade » Sat Sep 3, 2016 10:13 am

I thought it'd be fun to do one on each board. Please give your reasoning/summary below if you want to be included in the contest.

12 wins gets them to the Finals which I think nearly everyone expects them to make their 3rd consecutive appearance. No one from the East appears to be on their level, though I do expect Toronto and Boston to challenge them for the #1 seed. People forget lebron has rarely secured the #1 seed in his career.

I can't see them getting the necessary two wins in the Finals this year though. I've got GSW over Cleveland in 5 as my early season title prediction. So I took the under.

I think Cleveland needs to make a trade midseason. Love can't play center and he can't guard Durant... I don't like the way they matchup with Gsw at all. And this is coming from someone who picked them over GSW in the Finals this year.

Cleveland is just getting really, really old and the injury risk to Love and Irving is concerning.

I think we'll lose in the finals but think we'll win more than 1 game.

Should have made it 14.5 o/u

I'm going over. I don't expect us to win, but I think we get 2 wins in the Finals.
