Gotta figure Washington comes out hot tonight, Wall goes off and wills the Wizards to a W. Jazz got an emotional win Sunday so it'll be interesting how they come out, GSW will win probably by double digits.



Both games on TNT

I don't know if it's just me... but I can't get into Eastern Conference basketball.

I don't know if it's because my team is in the West and so the West is more relevant to me, or maybe it's that I feel no team in the East can compete with LeBron, but the East is just boring to me.

Looking forward to Jazz-Warriors but don't care at all about Wizards-Celtics.

I've got a vested intrest in Washington because I've picked them to go to the Finals so my situation is a little different

The first two Celtics/Bulls and Bucks/Raptors games were fun. That Wiz/Hawks series was intense but I can see how someone would think the East is boring

They didn't finish hot, which is why I stated they'll come out strong with something to prove

I think it's because the East just doesn't have any really strong franchises other than the team LeBron is on at the moment. Some teams may have good years but they are a flash in the pan.

The West has like 7 franchises that are all really good and at each other's throats year in and year out.

The West is just more fun in my opinion.

True, sans Bron the East doesn't have that drawing factor the West has with stars like Harden, Russ, KD, Steph, etc.

I will follow Rudy Gobert and Gordon Hayward's hair to the ends of the earth.

A lot of tanking took place in the East it appeared, but you're starting to see more playoff teams trying to win their games in the regular season.

I don't see this with the bottom tier playoff teams in these last 2 years now.

Damn is it that big of a deal? All I said is that I think they'll come out hot and Wall will have a big game

Wizards have zero defense. Going to get worked again tonight more than likely.



Then again I didn't think Houston had a chance in he!! to beta San Antonio on the road.

Golden State and Utah? Utah better keep the run and gun to a bare minimum and hope to dear God that Gobert's knee is able to handle the pick'n'roll situations Golden State is going to throw out there tonight and all series long.

I expect the Wizards to take game 2. They need to find a way to take advantage of IT defensively.

ETA: hope no one caught that
