Not sure how many ballers are out there but I love the playoffs. I watched the Warriors/Clippers first game this afternoon. That's going to be a good series to watch. The Blazers are my team and they're up against a tough Rockets team. Psyched to watch that game tomorrow.
So what's your team? Whose gonna win it all? Post up your thoughts.

Potland Trailblazers,,, PFFFFTT!!
Do you remember my t-shirts from the 90's. "Help take the R out of Portland"
"R" meaning republican. But I'm a Golden Boy. ALL the Cali teams are my teams.
But for ur info; this is the decade (or two) of No. 6. We must all bow down to The King!
Kobe sure did, follow suit.
I'll bet a cheeseburger for the Heat in 5!
But ur right! We'll definitely see some great ball..

If Dame has a playoff breakout the blazers could go deep. He matches up well vs Beverly so I think they will beat the Rockets in the first round.

WTF happened to my Pacers? Sometime around January they went from being the best team in the league to one of the worst. They still got the #1 seed based on the 1st half of the season, but just lost game 1 to the woeful Hawks. Ugh!
If the Pacers don't win I am rooting for Golden State in the West & anyone but the Heat in the East.

No idea. But will say that 2 times ago when I was in Red Rocks, I'd call my boy to read the casino odds and ask who he was favoring for each game. Would go like this.
I'd say: "Heat at home against the Lakers and the Heat are favored by 8-1/2". (Just that fast)
He'd reply: "8-1/2... man, Heat should be up 12 and they'll have their reserves in coasting to a win in the 4th qtr, (insert some unknown to me name like Labrisha Evans) is healthy and playing well and (insert another name like LaQunita Moeuuff) can't guard that 12' jumper he's got" blah blah blah. He was picking 80% of the games correct. Made his daddy both happy and wealthier...

It stands for no bouldering allowed....a good mantra for old guys with bones that don't bend.

The wizards just pulled off a road win in Chicago. Looking forward to the Blazer Rockets matchup next. It is 4/20. Go Blazers!

Physical too!
I hope the Blazers take D Howard's little arm socks off and spank him with them........
I won't hold my breath or bet money though. That was a helluva battle.

Howard had a good game. But Lopez made him work for it. The blazers bench is a little soft. Hopefully they'll step it up when needed. The starting five can't play that many minutes every game.

Very psyched for the Warriors tonight. That game one win was a wierd one as Blake Griffin played so little due to his foul trouble. I expect the Clips will be a tall order for the Ws tonight.
I do think the Warriors are an especially fun team to watch. Great passing by a bunch of really unselfish players--you could argue that it is the way the game is meant to be played.
Going to game 3 on Thursday...my son is a huge fan but my wife trumped him for the second ticket...she likes big events...he can't believe he has been aced out...he'll say things to his mom like, "Name two players on the Warriors bench?" Her answer, "Mugsy Bogues?" haha...

yeah, rooting for the warriors against a talented clippers team. blake griffin has gotten so much better the last two years. but when stephen curry goes off he can hit from half court if he wants to.
if the heat don't 3peat, i think it will be OKC that wins it all, such is my belief that kevin durant is as good as lebron, especially with a healthy westbrook.
