not super excited about any of these match ups except HOU/OKC. SAS/MEM, TOR/MIL, and ATL/WAS will vie for most NBATV coverage

feeling the milwaukee upset in my bones right now
― ciderpress, Thursday, 13 April 2017 22:34 (six years ago) link
just 4 kicks i checked our preseason predix thread. i think everyone had detroit and charlotte making the east offs (no one had mil or chi), and almost everyone had minn instead of mem in the west. i would have hit 4 of my 5 over/under picks.
congrats to sloth for picking the 8 west playoff teams (though he wasn't close on the seeding).
― call all destroyer, Thursday, 13 April 2017 22:35 (six years ago) link
iirc i was right about rockets and jazz being real teams this year but whiffed on most of the other differences from last year
― ciderpress, Thursday, 13 April 2017 22:39 (six years ago) link
i guess i was also right about minn not being real, not sure what ppl were thinking there. i had nuggets and pels as the ascendant west teams, alas
― ciderpress, Thursday, 13 April 2017 22:41 (six years ago) link
i think my best move was calling that the wizards would be good, my worst move was thinking indiana would be good. idk where the hell i got that from.

GSW v POR warriors 4LAC v UTA jazz 6 (end of clippers as we've known them)HOU v OKC rockets 5SAS v MEM spurs 6
BOS v CHI celtics 6WAS v ATL wizards 7TOR v MIL raptors 6 CLE v IND cavaliers 6
― Clay, Friday, 14 April 2017 04:22 (six years ago) link
I'm thinking the west will see mostly walkovers, with the exception of Clips v Jazz.
GSW over POR in 4LAC over UTA in 7HOU over OKC in 5SAS over MEM in 4
I'm thinking the east will provide just a little more 1st round drama.
BOS over CHI in 5ATL over WAS in 7TOR over MIL in 6CLE over IND in 5
But mostly I'm thinking I'm not so great at this prediction stuff.

GSW v POR warriors 4 sorry clayLAC v UTA jazz 7- jazz r hungry & dare I say it...better coached? Ready for doc on NBA tv next yearHOU v OKC rockets 6 but Russ will put up 40-15-15 at least onceSAS v MEM spurs 4
BOS v CHI celtics 5 WAS v ATL wizards 5TOR v MIL raptors 5 but would not be surprised if bucks push this to 6 or 7CLE v IND cavaliers 4 pg openly talks about going to la before it ends. Don't mess w first round lebron

injuries can foster upsets and 5s can beat 4s w/o it being an upset. but with a 7 game series, the 1-8, 2-7, and 3-6 usually go according to form.
― a little too mature to be cute (Aimless), Friday, 14 April 2017 20:32 (six years ago) link
true, but for me, clips v jazz is a unique case bc of all the clips' injuries during the season. i think theyre going to beat the jazz handily. (would like to be proven wrong tho). that wizards/atl series im less confident in my pick bc atl has some dece playoff experience and also defense is at a premium? but wall is the best player in this series.

KLove looks bad in this Game 1. Wanders around a bit. Stands on his spot waiting for a pass. Doesn't get the ball out of his hands fast enough. Bad.

I think Giannis could never shoot a shot outside 15 feet the rest of his career and get multiple MVPs

bless hart, he seems to love poker, but he is...not good lol

hart is a pokerstars endorser idk if theyre paying the whole 300 or what but he cld be free rolling fwiw

like what wld the other guy be bluffing with there
― lag∞n, Sunday, 28 May 2017 22:21 (six years ago) link
idk i prob call in that situation 9 times out of 10, but i am a pr mediocre live player lol
― Clay, Sunday, 28 May 2017 22:22 (six years ago) link
kevin hart's watch is intense
it was kind of a weird spot, probably should have raised the flop multiway, 2 pair is one of the better hands you're going to have in that sitch considering you just called the flop. can prob find fold button there tho for sure
― k3vin k., Sunday, 28 May 2017 22:24 (six years ago) link
yeah trapping w top two threeway there was borderline but prob an ok play on a p dry board
― lag∞n, Sunday, 28 May 2017 22:26 (six years ago) link
he prob wasnt getting that guy off that draw w any at all normal size bet anyway
― lag∞n, Sunday, 28 May 2017 22:27 (six years ago) link
yeah the more i think abt it the more it's a fold. best case the guy's doing a v weird bluff, i prob woulda talked myself into thinking he hit trip 3's on the turn and gotten away from it
― Clay, Sunday, 28 May 2017 22:27 (six years ago) link
being on the ladder cld argue for the fold there too
― lag∞n, Sunday, 28 May 2017 22:28 (six years ago) link
yeah he cldve had all the sets there
