i wouldn't bet against the heat in these playoffs ... assuming lebron, bosh and wade are healthy ... they should get through the east and then they have equal chance of winning ...

not sure what they do if they fail ...

I still don't understand Boston's coasting into the playoffs... Sure the 4/5 matchup was set, and i feel like they tanked the last couple of games, and have now finished fifth giving the Hawks home court...

They had 4th spot and home court against an Atlanta team that ALWAYS plays them well...

I get that they're poised, and have the experience to win anywhere... but still

1 versus 8 is almost never fun to watch in the NBA. Even 2 versus 7 is pretty much a lock.

NBA playoff schedule is the worst. In Bulls-Sixers series, there are 2 days off between games 1 and 2 and then 2 more days off between games 2 and 3. Brutal.

I thought I heard that there wouldnt be as many days off in these playoffs since the season went later than usual?? 1 day off between games is more than enough. I can maybe understand during the Finals when teams are flying cross country between games, but other than that there is zero reason to have 2 days off between games in the same city. :nono:

Exactly. Us sports fans think logically, but the people in charge think monetarily.
