How would these series go?

Indiana/San Antonio
Miami/Oklahoma City
Toronto/LA Clippers
Chicago/Houston
Washington/Portland
Brooklyn/Golden State
Charlotte/Memphis
Atlanta/Dallas

How many series would the East win?

Brooklyn might beat Golden State.

Heat/Thunder is a toss up.

That's it.

Those were the two I was looking at.

I feel like most of the other series' wouldn't even be all that competitive.

Miami, wizards, and Brooklyn are the only possibilities.

Most likely Miami be the only one who wins though

I wouldnt give the Nets and Wizards as much of a shot as others.

Id say the Heat have a shot, nobody else does.

Heat without HCA too v Durant/Westbrook... this isn't 2012 anymore. Times have changed and the Heat are worse. Id take the Thunder.

The Thunder should win a series with the Heat with home-court.

I think the Nets would have the best shot.

But Harden isn't walking through that door.

I was going to put the O/U at 0.5, but then I thought people would just think I'm trolling.

Should?? Nah. They've beaten the heat like once in the last two seasons.

Okc can't handle the heat

Eta

A shitty harden is better than anything okc brings off the bench now a days.

You think Reggie Jackson gonna fair better than Harden?

I've said before that I don't think the Heat are anything special this year. They are a good team. Not a super great team.

They dropped off more between this year and last year than they did between 2012 and 2013.

We shall see. There 3 stars have all been more efficient with their shooting. D wade has just been resting all year and he's healthy and good to go now.

The role players have gotten older and decreased in productivity a little but they can still win the championship.

Miami would definitely win. Maybe one other.

Role players are slightly worse. Lebron is better. D Wade is healthier. Chris Bosh has improved his perimeter game.

I never said they were AS good but "not anywhere close" is a stretch.



OKC isn't as good as they were last year either.

Meh.

He's pretty much the exact same.
