2011 NBA playoffs picture

15-20 games left in the season with playoffs right around the corner..

Post your interesting playoff matchups with the winner of each series...

My predictions:

1.) Celtics/Bulls
2.) Bulls/Celtics
3.) Heat
4.) Magic
5.) Hawks
6.) Knicks
7.) 76ers
8.) Pacers

1.) Spurs/Lakers/Mavs
2.) Spurs/Lakers/Mavs
3.) Spurs/Lakers/Mavs
4.) Thunder
5.) Blazers/Nuggets
6.) Nuggets/Blazers
7.) Hornets/Grizzlies/Suns
8.) Hornets/Grizzlies/Suns/Jazz/Rockets

Assuming if Celtics are the number 1 seed...

Celtics vs Pacers.. Celtics in 5

Assuming if Bulls are the number 1 seed...

Bulls vs Pacers... Bulls in 5 or 6

Heat vs Knicks... Heat OR Knicks in 7... Reason? This will be the best first round series in the playoffs... The new look Knicks have won in South Beach led by Amare and Melo.

Magic vs Hawks... Magic in 6 or 7. Last year the Magic/Hawks played and the Magic destroyed them. With the improving play of Josh Smith/Al Horford and the dramatic changes to the Magic roster, this will be fun to watch..

Eastern Conference Finals: Celtics vs Bulls.. Celtics in 7

Can't really have predictions for the West... There are too many possibilities of matchups which I am too lazy to do.

Yea I'm a Lakers homer.. Lakers vs Celtics in the finals.. Lakers in 7.

Season MVP: Derrick Rose or Dwight Howard
Defensive Player of the Year: Dwight Howard
Rookie of the Year: Blake Griffin
Most Improved Player: Too many to name..

Finals MVP: Kobe Bryant or Rajon Rondo.

 

Rose for MVP.
Dwight hasn't done shit but complain and get T'd up.

 

east

1. boston goes to nba finals
2. bulls take it to conference finals
3. heat lose in first round
4. magic lose in second round
5. atlanta
6. new york
7. pacers
8. 76ers or maybe pistons make a last minute run.

1. spurs still retain #1 seed, but lose in first or second round.
2. mavericks push, but lose in second round, like always
3. lakers reach conference finals
4. OKC take it far into playoffs

who care what the last 4 do cuz the wont win regardless, if I were to pick a low seed to win, I would golden state to go far into the playoffs.

who do i see in the finals? im a celtics fan at heart, so naturally I am assuming that the oneals will come back and put in work easily. unless the celtics face the lakers again in the finals, celtics win everything. otherwise, lakers win.

 

I'm standing behind OKC and their solid as hell team to win it all.

 

Interesting choices from everyone so far.

 

Thank you derrick rose is the future of nba point guards. On that note bulls all the way.

 

i think the spurs or the bulls will win it all, today the spurs lost but in the playoffs tony parker, Tim Duncan and the crew will get healthy and pops will get his guys togeather. the heat will lose to the celtics,bulls,or the magic in 5-6 games. Knicks wont go that far because they are out of synch.

 

East:
1/ Celtics
2/ Bulls
3/ Heat
4/ Magic
5/ Knicks
6/ Hawks
7/ 76ers
8/ Bobcats

West:
1/ Spurts
2/ Lakers
3/ Mavs
4/ Thunder
5/ Hornets
6/ Nuggets
7/ Jazz
8/ Suns

East finals: Celtics vs. Heat - Celtics in 6
West: Spurs vs. Lakers - Lakers in 7

MVP: D. Rose
Finals MVP: ?

 

Just for epic shits and giggles.

 

Chicago vs OKC in NBA Finals.

Celtics too old and Miami hasn't beat Chicago this season.

Now that OKC has a defensive presence in Perkins I think they can beat the teams in the west.

 

nba rocks!
