First Round Series Thread

[bksballer89]

I was thinking maybe we can have 1 big thread for the entire first round since we won't talk about certain series as much as others?

I will start off by posting the schedule for each series here

I like it - that's a good idea. So where is your mascot HMS

 

[bksballer89]

I will be at Barclays Saturday Night for the first playoffs game in Brooklyn!!!!!

 

[LeaderOCola]

Hello new people.

I certainly am not going to tell you what you can or cannot do, and honestly, the NBA forum was pretty low traffic prior to the CBS thing

but in general, SportsHoopla culture in other sports is Game Day (Night) Threads.


you will also find you can bet your VCash on games in the bookie forum. (obviously I suck at it)

Go Spurs

After I'm finish recruiting all the good NBA posters from CBS, the NBA board will be pretty high in terms of traffic through July. We will have a little dead period during the Aug-September but from OCT-MID JULY this board will have a ton of traffic

 

[shitsho]

I was wondering what that Vcash was. I loose every time I bet on anything. Maybe I will be better with fake money.

[bksballer89]

Do you guys think Atlanta can pull the upset? Indiana has been struggling big time heading into the playoffs

 

[Rolln300]

TLF, HMS would be here but he couldnt figure out how to spell SportsHoopla.

 

[jefe101]

I don't really follow too many teams but I see Lakers winning in 5 and Heat losing in 6.

 

[gobigred]

Someone has been doing a little

 

[wildturkey]

Miami has a real chance at doing what the Lakers did in 00 (or 01?), sweep every series until the Finals.

I doubt it. Would be surprised if they swept more than 1 series

 

[ChrisperJ10]

I kinda feel sorry for Jeremy Lin. Westbrook is going to eat him alive!

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

The HEAT will make a run at greatness.

1. They will sweep the Bucks.

2. They would sweep New Jersey.
They would lose 1 game to the Bulls.

3. They would sweep Atlanta.
They would sweep Indiana.
They would sweep New York. Yes, this is the playoffs and the Heat defend the 3.
They would lose 1 game to Boston.


4. They sweep OKC (in their heads), GSW, Houston, Clippers, and Denver.
They lose 1 game to either San Antonio (Pop coaches 1 win), Memphis (big guys), or Lakers (big guys plus Stern wont allow it).

I have them lose THREE TOTAL GAMES at most. And several pathways to Fo, Fo, Fo, Fo-real.

I will root for more competitive series and glady be wrong....but I just dont see them being challenged.

 

[ChrisperJ10]

Seeing as how the Longhorns team board is pretty dead on this site. What do you think about this years team, Horns?
