All I got from that boring story was that he learned everything he knows while in San Antonio. I'm not surprised.

i still can't get over how fat diaw is

Including expectation altering changes last night

Bulls > 76s in 6
Celtics > Hawks in 6
Heat > Knicks in 5 (they win one off Melo alone)
Pacers > Magic in 6 (I had this as a sweep until the Magic surprised with a road victory)

Celtics > Bulls in 6 (I just don't see the Bulls surviving the second round w/o Rose)
Heat > Pacers in 5

Heat > Celtics in 5 (Predicting the old 3 run out of gas due to the shortened season)

----------------------

Spurs > Jazz in 5 (Jazz pull 1 home game in virtue of the arena intensity)
OKC > Mavs in 6 ( I still remain unconvinced the Mavs have the tools this season)
Lakers > Nuggets in 6 (Would be 5 if it weren't for Metta Elbow being out)
Grizz > Clippers in 5 (Blake gets lots of flop calls then gets punked)

Spurs > Grizz in 6
Lakers > OKC in 7 (predicting OKC chokes and Brooks overplays Fisher)

Spurs > Lakers in 6 (Bynum goes full retard and costs the Lakers at least one game; also Lakers' bench fails)

----------------------

Spurs > Heat in 6 (LeBron disappears; conditioned on Manu staying healthy)

[Moss]

Almost time for the Hawks to prove all of the naysayers wrong

[Tyche]

I don't watch the regular season. Here's how it plays out.

Celtics > Hawks
Heat > Knicks
Pacers > Magic

Celtics > Bulls
Heat > Pacers

Heat > Celtics

----------------------

Spurs > Jazz
OKC > Mavs
Lakers > Nuggets
Clippers > Grizzlies

Spurs > Clippers
Thunder > Lakers

Thunder > Spurs
