1st Round Record (6-2)
Eastern Conference
Indiana Pacers Vs Miami
Heat
The
Pacers have been one of the surprising teams out in The East not only
because they're winning, but how they're winning. They play a very
paced game and once they get going they are hard to stop, so they
should be able to keep up with The Heat. But unfortunately I don't
think they are good enough to win a seven game series against The
Heat. The Pacers won't be a chump team for The Heat to run over like
most of the garbage teams in The Eastern Conference, this will
actually be a good test for them and offensively they should be able
to keep up, but on the defensive side that's a completely different
story. That's where The Heat have the edge in this series and that
will be the deciding factor in the series.

Philadelphia 76ers Vs
Boston Celtics
The
Boston Celtics are playing some great basketball right now. They are
back to their old ways playing great on defense and scoring on
offense. I don't know what has got into Kevin Garnett but dude is
ballin hard! Everybody was ready to count this guy out and now that
he's healthy he is back to full form and talkin mad ass shit! Paul
Pierce is still coming up with the clutch shots and Rondo is dishing
the ball, scoring and rebounding, he does it all. The 76ers have had
a good season but I don't think they have a chance against The
Celtics. The Celtics are on a whole other playing level compared to
them and they will make the series interesting but that's about it!

Western Conference
Los Angeles Clippers Vs
San Antonio Spurs
The
Spurs have been resting up and patiently waiting for their next
opponent in the playoffs. They are a team who benefits from all this
time off too because they do have a veteran squad. The Clippers were
pushed to the brink in a tough series against The Grizzlies, a few of
their guys got banged up in the series too. That is not a good way to
be coming into a series with the way The Spurs have been playing this
season. Like I said in the last series I don't believe in The
Clippers and never have so I think their run will be over in this
round. I think The Spurs will dominate The Clippers and it won't even
be that great of a series to watch unless you're a Spurs fan!

Los Angeles Lakers Vs
Oklahoma City Thunder
From
the start of the season I picked The Thunder to be The Champions so I
am not surprised at all to see how much they dominated The Mavs in
the first round of the playoffs. If The Lakers want any chance of
winning this series Gasol and Bynum have to play well and the bench
has to step it up. We never have to worry about Kobe, he comes out
and does his job night in and night out, but he needs the rest of his
team to step it up and play with the same heart or else they will get
run over by this fast paced Thunder squad! There will be a little
more animosity due to Artest and his elbow to Harden's head, so if
there wasn't already enough hatred between these two teams it got
worse with that! This will be a good series to watch and I'm sure I
will have a million heart attacks throughout. I am picking The Lakers
to win the series but that's only because I'm a fan of them. I won't
be shocked at all if they lose this series. But when you have Kobe
anything is possible!!
