NBA Playoffs 2015-2016

I know we couldn't help it because it was largely due to Crowder's injury at the end of the season, but we really screwed ourselves by playing like crap down the stretch and losing the three seed. I wholeheartedly believe we would've convincingly won our way to the conference finals.

Just think - if Jae wouldn't have got hurt, then we would have most likely done enough to keep the third seed. Then playing Charlotte in the first round we both wouldn't lose Bradley to injury AND we wouldn't have a bad matchup. Then we would've played Toronto, who has looked absolutely terrible all playoffs long with their backcourt folding under pressure. Does anyone really think that a fully healthy C's squad wouldn't have took it to these Raptors? I think we would've won in 6.

It's amazing how much Jae's ankle injury screwed us down the stretch.

Oh, what could have been...

Dang. It'd be so awesome if we were still in the playoffs. I miss Celtics basketball already.

Thompson is on FIYAH!

Gotta admire the heart of this Blazer team, they just really struggle to finish down the stretch with all their iso hero ball play.

Hoping for an OKC-Toronto NBA Finals I guess.

Blazers are so good. And they'll have a ton of cap space this summer.

(Lowkey...KD should consider them)

It's hard to see either Miami or Toronto offering much of a challenge to the Lebroniers.

Sticking with my Cavs over Warriors in 6 in the Finals.

I'm trying to think of a way to stop the Draymond at center lineup, and I'm not sure there is a way other then hoping they miss. But they manufacture so many wide-open shots, they'll probably just start making them eventually.

OKC or San Antonio will probably try to go big against them. Not sure what Cleveland will try but Love at center will be disaster against that lineup and Mozgov is now awful. Good thing they got Frye.

Because of Curry's pending health or because you think that a healthy Cavs team is better than GS?

Predictions for tonight lads? I think OKC close it out.

I love the Spurs, both the organisation and Kawhi is my favourite individual player in the league but they're starting to show age in key areas how the game is played these days.

The way they've dealt with the atrocious calls is too classy for the NBA.

I think San Antonio strikes back & sends it to a Game 7.

Westbrook cools off a bit from his Game 5 performance and the Spurs start having more of their shots dropping (they just seemed unlucky at times in Game 5).  Kawhi comes up big.

Still hoping for a series win, but I'm ultimately expecting an OKC win. I think whoever wins tonight wins the series (obvious for the Warriors), and San Antonio would regain their mojo and close it out at home if they took game 6 tonight.

[Drucci]

Hoping for a Spurs win, a game 7 between these two teams would be great. (And I'd rather have Durant loose instead of going to the WCF, to improve our chances)
