[Lone Granger]

Go Roy Hibbert!

 

[bksballer89]

If Pacers play as they did the last 2 months and in the Hawks series, the Wiz can honestly win in 5 but I'll say Wizkids in 6

 

[OregonDucks]

Pacers in 5.

 

[ChrisperJ10]

Wizards in 5... Wall > Teague, and Teague didn't have Beal in the backcourt with him.

Someone in the Pacers' locker room slept with someone's mom/sister/girlfriend/wife... Wtf happened to that team?

I thought they'd get it together and sweep the Hawks...

Nene is going to make Hibbert his_________ (<---- insert whatever here).

Funny thing about the Pacers is that they didn't look like shit in games 6 or 7 for WSH to be worried about. Basically what happened in games 6 and 7 is that ATL started missing a high amount of 3's and that is the only way they know how to win without Horford

 

[WhiteMamba]

sheesh. Tough one.

I guess Wizards in 6

 

[Am I Blue Through it All?]

Atlanta has always been a nightmare matchup for the Pacers. Pacers in 5 over the Whiz kids.

 

[Jims_Doors]

Wiz in 7

 

[BOTSLAYER]

This is the same issue with OKC only to a much more extreme degree.

If IND remembered how to play basketball this could be a 5 game series for them, if they really are just that bad now Wiz in 6.

No prediction, just rooting for the Wiz.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

Wizards in 6.


I am full bandwagon on the Wizards to win the east.


No reason to jump off that irrational unfounded belief now.

 

[trojanfan12]

Pacers in 6, maybe 5.

 

[bksballer89]

Atlanta has always been a nightmare matchup for the Pacers. Pacers in 5 over the Whiz kids.

Wow you're alive

 

[bksballer89]

None of the games this season between the 2 teams were close as the home team dominated all the games.

 

[starbigd]

Wizards in 6. Pacers have no way to to guard that backcourt, and the Wizards have a quality enough frontcourt to not be bothered by their size.

I don't see how ANYONE expects THIS Pacers team to beat ANYONE right now. Seriously, they have been exposed for quite some time now. They really didn't even beat Atlanta, Atlanta just missed too many WIDE OPEN shots.

 

[Superdonk]

Indiana in 7

 

[Heatles84]

The Wizards poise some interesting matchup problems. Nene schooled Noah throughout the first round, and I can only imagine what he's going to do to Hibbert who's slower and not as good as a defender. Wall's also slightly quicker than Teague and this matchup has a SG that Indiana has to account for. Don't know who'll win this series, but Washington has considerably more tools than Atlanta did.

 

[piss-tons]

Wizards in 6

 

[Logicallylethal]

I got the Wizards 6

No offense to the Hawks cause they put up a great fight...but the Wizards would've finished the Pacers off in 5 with the way they were playing in the first round. Any team in the West would have swept them

We will see which Indy team shows up though

 

[Clayton]

I'm jumping on the Wizards in 6 bandwagon.
